History
of Colloidal Silver
Man has used silver to support
the immune system throughout recorded history. Here is an
ancient anecdote from the writings of Herodotus, the Greek
philosopher, dating this use of silver to before the birth
of Christ.
| The
Greek historian Herodotus, called the "Father
of History", is one of our prime sources for
information known about the fall of Babylon.
Herodotus lived a century after the time of Daniel
and traveled widely in the East. In his
"Histories", we learn of the campaign of
Persia's King Cyrus against Babylon. The details
include the fact that no Persian king, including
Cyrus, would drink the water of any stream other
than the Choaspes, a river that flows past the
Persian capital of Susa. Wherever the king went, a
long train of four-wheeled mule wagons followed him
transporting silver jars filled with boiled water
from the river's waters. The water would keep fresh
for years during the long campaigns. |
The
Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Egyptians and many peoples from
the "Dark Ages" used silver in one form or another
to preserve food and water. In the "Middle Ages,"
during the infamous pandemics, silverware protected the wealthy
by warding off these diseases. In the old west, pioneers used
silver coins to preserve milk and water. In the last century,
man was beginning to develop more sophisticated forms of silver
to kill germs. In 1938, the FDA was formed, Penicillin was
introduced and the modern pharmaceutical industry began to
dominate anti-microbial science. Since silver preparations
were more expensive they receded from favor.
The use of some silver preparations in modern,
mainstream medicine has survived until this "Modern Age."
Among them are the use of dilute silver nitrate in newborn
babies' eyes to protect from infection and the use of "Silvadine,"
a silver based salve, in virtually every burn ward in America
to fight infection. A silver coated nylon material was patented
as "Silvalon" and licensed by FDA as an anti-microbial
bandage. Clearly, silver has historically been one of man’s
most reliable tools in supporting the immune system against
various maladies, even before he knew what caused these maladies.

Colloidal Silver is simply cutting edge technology
of an ancient and historical product.
How It Works: Silver
inhibits the growth of bacteria by deactivating the bacteria’s
oxygen metabolism enzymes. In turn, this destroys the bacteria’s
cell membranes, stopping the replication of the bacteria’s
DNA. Source- Acupoll Precision Research, April 2003 Beiersdorf,
