Traditional mineral can eliminate internal and external bacterial threats. Silver is medicine's original "antibiotic" and a doctor's most useful weapon against more than 650 different illness-causing bacteria, viruses, and fungi.

It has helped many people win the battle against a wide range of infectious illnesses. Silver is sweeping across the country as the best way to heal infections-on the inside and out.

Silver has been valued for its health benefits since before the time of Julius Caesar. The Greeks lined water and wine urns with silver to kill bacteria. The Romans discovered that a small amount of silver applied topically could help heal burns, cuts, and sores.

During the 14th century, one out of every four Europeans died from the bubonic (or Black) plague as it swept through the continent. However, many wealthy people survived. They found-even though it was beyond their scientific understanding-that silver could ward off the deadly scourge. Therefore, they gave their children silver spoons to suck on. That's where the expression "born with a silver spoon in your mouth" originated. In fact, silver pacifiers are still given to babies in many countries.

In more recent times, early American settlers dropped silver dollars into their milk to kill the bacteria. In 1884, Dr. K.S. Crede, a German obstetrician, discovered that putting a mild silver solution into babies' eyes at birth dramatically reduced common eye infections. Shortly thereafter, laws were created in the United States, Canada, Norway, and Denmark requiring all physicians and hospitals to put a silver solution in the eyes of every baby born in their care.

Recently, a long-term study (over five years) at two UCLA teaching hospitals showed that silver used on the eyes of newborn infants was more beneficial than erythromycin, an antibiotic ointment (Zanoni 1992). But 20th-century researchers also have confirmed silver's healing abilities for adults.

Bacteria Killer: When taken orally, silver can fight off a variety of bacteria and viruses that are responsible for many of today's infectious illnesses. Dr. Henry Crookes is credited for first promoting the use of silver in this way during the early 1900s. He used it for subduing gonorrhea, tuberculosis, and staphylococcus, as well as many other infectious organisms. His scientific reports concluded that there wasn't any known microbe that could survive after silver was used (Duarte 1997).

After Dr. Crookes' study was published in a contemporary medical journal, doctors throughout the world began using silver. Applications of silver were used on infections of the throat, nose, eyes, and genitals.

Fighting the Common Cold: More recently, a team of researchers found silver to be extremely powerful against bacterial infections (Berger 1976). Dr. J.M. Hovel reported in the British Medical Journal that silver is especially useful against shingles, pyorrhea, whooping cough, and throat and nasal infections. In addition, he found that the common cold retreats much more quickly when silver is taken orally (Duarte 1997).

Researchers at the VA hospital in New York also found that silver can be as much as 100 times stronger than prescription drugs used to kill bacteria. In 1982, Dr. J. Cowlishaw demonstrated that silver could even protect against the infamous E. coli bacteria, which is responsible for the majority of food-poisoning cases in the U.S. (Duarte 1997).

Bolsters Immune System; Silver also bolsters the immune system, according to studies published in several 20th-century medical journals. Scientists report that silver actually doubles the amount of white blood cells-our body's main germ fighters. So silver not only immediately attacks and destroys 650 known forms of infectious germs, but it also makes sure your body's defense systems become stronger to ward off future attacks. A quick spritz of silver could be all you need to fight off the dangerous germs you pick up during the course of the day while at places like work, school, restaurants, public restrooms, and movie theaters. www.crystal-loid.com
