Re: 250 ppm

Hey all,
  Speaking of ppms, I have had to buy all mine (CS) from the health food
store up till now. It says on the bottle it is 250 ppm. I wonder if
someone here could test it? I live near the person that had the ppms
testers but emailed and never got a response, is he still here? I quit
taking it when I had some pain in the liver area, (but could be my gall
bladder, did not want to risk it with surgery looming) and that is
another very good reason I want to make my own now.  Deb

Colloidal Copper with CS

1998-04-30 Thread Christian von Wechmar
Hi there,

A fellow CS maker and friend makes CS and adds colloidal copper (CC) and
H2O2 all into one bottle. Here is some info from his brochure.

-
WHY COLLOIDAL SILVER, COPPER AND H2O2?

Copper deficiency can compromise the immune system due to reduction of the
defending white blood cells; suppresses the body's ANTI-OXIDANTS and
impairs the controlling of the blood pressure because the effectiveness of
the relaxing factor in arteries, especially in the aorta, decreases. H2O2
provides the much needed oxygen without which the body cannot function
properly. Anaerobic microbes proliferate at high rate in the absence of O2.

Further to the individual qualities and health enhancing properties of
these three, the synergistic effect of the three-in-one complex increases
the total effect (value) of them to much more than the sum of the three
separately. H2O2 synergises silver microbial lethality up to 30 fold and
copper synergises H2O2 up to 3000 fold. (sic)
-

He has fantastic results with this CS, CC and H2O2 combination on patients.

Best,
Christian

My HVAC setup

1998-04-30 Thread Christian von Wechmar
Hi Fred and List,

At 01:12 PM 4/30/98 -0400, you wrote:
Could you give a good enough description of your unit for someone else
to try and duplicate it? I have a 9000 VAC 60 Hz 30 mA transformer
sitting here just looking for a purpose in life :-)

I'll try... My unit consists of three parts: the power supply, the
brewing vessel with electrodes and the water in it. I'll describe all
three. (I'll paste in some of my previous posts :)

I use a 12000 volt ac transformer with the following specs: 
Primary: 240 v - 1.65 amp
Secondary: 12000 v - 30 milliamp
50 Hz, 360 VA
This unit is used by neon display companies to power the tubes in the neon
signs. Here in SA the transformers can be found in 5000, 6000, 9000, 1
and 12000 volt, all 30 milliamp. This is according to a guy at a neon sign
manufacturer.

The transformer measures 225 mm long, 95 mm wide and 130 mm high. It weighs
just under 10 kg and is made in Hong Kong - ah so! :

I connect a multimeter in series with the live wire and leave it so as to
monitor input current for the whole duration of a typical 4 hour run. I
first measured the current with the transformer under no load, no wires
connected at the secondary terminals and it drew a constant 0.16 amp.

I use a one liter glass beaker. I will upgrade this to 2 liter shortly. I
have a piece of plastic - gray stuff in-between nylon and hard plastic -
that I machined on a lathe to fit securely on the top of the beaker. You
don't want anything to move around at 12000 volt! It is about 7 mm thick
and 11 mm in diameter. It has two ventilation slots on top.

The electrode configuration is almost exactly the same as the Bruce Marx
setup. Warren was kind enough to measure his setup on the HVAC Ultra. I'll
just paste in his very detailed description. (Thanks again Warren.)

-start paste-
The way my CSPro Ultra is set up, there is a bar of silver which is
about 1.5 millimeters thick and about 10 by 2 1/2 centimeters. It is
suspended by two copper wires hanging down from a female banana plug in the
plastic top of the plastic container where the CS is produced. The silver
bar hangs horizontally from the two copper wires in the form of an inverted
v terminating in bent ends like the letter j passing through two holes
drilled in the upper edge of the silver bar. The bar hangs in the water up
to a millimeter or so from the copper wires. In other words, the vast
majority of the silver bar is hanging in the distilled water almost to the
level of the two holes which are drilled near the top of the bar.

On the plastic top to each side of the banana plug terminal for the
bar at about 3 and 1/2 centimeters is found another female banana plug
terminal. A copper wire connects these two terminals. One of the
female banana plugs is filled with plastic so nothing plugs  into it.
Suspended from each is copper wire that is formed into a one
centimeter coil (to allow adjustment) and then terminates in another
j . A short (about 2 1/2 centimeter) twisted piece of silver wire
with an eye hangs on each copper j wire and is set at about 1 or 2
millimeters from the surface of the distilled water (These hang on
each side of the hanging bar). When the unit is set up with the cables
from the machine plugged into the top of the water container and all
clearances are correct (silver bar in the distilled water all but a
couple of millimeters, twisted silver wires a couple of millimeters
from the top of the water) then I am ready to turn on the power. At
that time, if I have good water, the water jumps up and forms a cone
around each twisted wire. With really good water the cones are a
centimeter and a half wide and a centimeter and a half tall,
surrounding the lower part of the hanging wire. With bad water there
is only one cone with the other wire arcing or both wires just arc. Of
the three different kinds of distilled water I can get in my area,
only one is good. It is called TV (True Value) brand and on the label
it says sodium content less than .01 mg per 8 oz serving. It is
distributed by Fleming Companies, Inc, Oklahoma City, OK USA (Which I
include for those who may read this in the US.) Holes are cut in the
top of the plastic pail for ventilation.
-end paste-

I then mailed Warren again for more info. Here are my questions and his reply:

What is the diameter of your twisted silver electrodes? I noticed that my
small electrodes created a nice water pyramid, but after about half an hour
the tips were barely in contact with the water. Does the same happen in
your system? I lowered mine to make light contact anyway. Does your manual
say anything about this?

-start paste-
Responding to your questions: 1. twisted electrodes are about 1 to 2
millimeters in diameter, I'd say 1.5 millimeters and about 3
centimeters long when new. After several batches they shorten in
length and eventually have to be replaced. 2. When I use good water,
that is the TV water, the cones stay around the wires during the
entire two

Regarding using silver us coins 64 and preceding years.

Quote from article Under emergency conditions it would be good to remeber
that U.S. silver coins from 1964 and earlier contain 90 percent silver, nine
percent copper and one percent zinc, all which are known to have beneficial

clean and shiny. (I mention this purely as an intellectual consideration and
not to recomend that anyone undertake such an action under normal conditions. 
silver wire is much easier to use.) end quote.

He also mentions in article perceptions nov/dec 1995 Do not to use sterling

How did you check the particle sizes?
Is the HVAC unit commercial or did you make it yourself and what voltage

I had it checked at a laboratory using a ZetaSizer Version PCS. The
particle sizes and concentration (ppm) of colloidal silver are at the
bottom end of this machine's capability. I have had 30VDC CS checked with
scanning and transmission electron microscopes. But not the HVAC CS. I'm
going to make HVAC and 30VDC CS from the same water and compare them with a
transmission e. microscope. I will also have a look at the distilled,
deionized water I'm using just to see what lurks in there.

I have just thought about my HVAC results yesterday. I used distilled water
from a different lab. I am now wondering if the particle size was not so
small that the ZetaSizer did not even measure them, but measured impurities
in the water?! I'm actually hoping that this is the case.

I use a home made HVAC unit. It runs at 12000 volt ac 50 Hz and has a max

Not an easy business to measure CS for its ppm and particle size. My time
is a bit limited right now, but when I have new results I'll post them. I
quite like the HVAC process. It is very clean and the hardware commands
respect! I'm hoping to make HVAC CS that is on the same spec that Bruce
Marx claims.

Why don't you buy some of his CS and have it checked with e. microscope and
ICP? I feel that if his machine makes what he claims, it is a must buy.

Thanks for the very informative post, Susan.

(If this is too much off topic, you can privately email me.  I've got some

I've found great benefit in using Beano to eat various vegetables and beef
fat (sorry, haven't given beef up yet!)

I'm curious about other enzymes; my allergies are causing continual mild

feeding candida, contributing to more hunger...

I think the CS is helping keep candida in check.  Never the less, due to
allergies, I wake up feeling famished and find myself munching on junk all
day long.  (Still no sinus infections despite a couple bad colds this year.

I had the article and sent it with a friend so she would understand what I
am saying to her.  It has a good bibliogralphy for you.  I will see if I
can get it back from her and post it for you.

Megazymes by Enzymatic tharapy are good for me b/c I can tolerate them

About Candida, you can eradicate it with CS done slowly and carefully
according to your health state.  WHen a single celled organism, or parasite
or the spirochete of which we read so much dies, it's death releases a
toxin that was inside the organism heretofor.  So when [people get treated
for Candida and are not properlu educated about the Jarisch Herxheiomer
reaction--the body'e reaction to the toxin released at the death of the
organism, oftentimes they feel worse and stop taking the medication and may
say they are allergic or whatever b/c we don't get the same thing painfiul
reactions with antibiotic therapy for common micro organisms. As a matter
of fact many doctors don't understand this.

Funguses are very different creatures docs in 3rd world countries are the
best at recognizing these things and treating them. Although we are
catching up. Funguses have the ability to change forms according to their
replication cycle and unless you are in this cycle they will not be found
in the blood, they can be budding yeast which looks like cottage cheese or
mycelia which can travel from organ to organ with out the use of the
vascular system. When you are in this replication cycle you feel worse and
crave sweets or fermented things.  The yeast need more carbohydrate to
live. Yeast Canndida and monilia are basically the same for the purpose of
this post.

What the enzyme does ON AN EMPTY STOMACH is get readily absorbed into the
bloodstream and eat up 'the toxins released by the dying fungi or
spirochete.  It is a good add on for treatment of Candida but will not kill
candida.  It will alleviate the pain as do the other things I delineated in
a previous post.

Now, the article had several subtitles and said in effect that in studies
done--double blind no  less that it has been found that they relieve the
pain of inflammation better that then ensaids so commonly prescribed which
are poison to me.

They also discovered a use for these in autoimmune disease like MS and so
forth is that they discovereed that the enzymes will also eliminate
circulating immune complexes.  this is important for peopole like me for
instance b/c the immune complexes I have are anti myelin ones and attack
the lining of the nerves and it is painful process.

Also good in allergies for precisely the same thing they will digest
allergens, reduce swelling (anti inflammation effect)  tThe anti
inflammation effect is accomplished as the enzymes soften and digest the
fibrin and other substance and catecholamines in the infalammatory
reaction, including arachidonic acid which is the culprit that causes pain.

So It may be a while before I can get that bibliography up b/c I can't
leave the mountain just now and I will have to get her to bring it to me.

in perception magazine they had 2 articles on making your own cs,
the author did mention using pure 999 silver, but also mentioned one

one other metal (not nickle) and said copper is a benifit also.
So wondering if using silver coins might not be good to have with
these other items being made. they also made mention that some
collodial mineral water had in it's list of minerals arsenic, and
commented
it interesting to have a poison mineral there and mentioned one other
type of mineral that is known as a poison but in collodial form might
not be harmful in small ppm. maybe it might be positive.

We've just witnessed the unannounced arrival of over twenty new 
members in the last 3 days. Welcome to you all!

When that kind of thing happens I have to assume the silver-list was 
mentioned somewhere out there in cyberspace or physical-space.

If any of you would like to mention how you found out about us,
either on-list or via e-mail, I would appreciate it. 

This list and the community surrounding it is a work in progress. It 
is good for us to know who we've attracted and why, so we may 
continue to grow in a direction that fulfills the greatest needs of 
our members.

My aim is to provide a stable, safe environment which nurtures 
careful experimentation and discovery of the uses and benefits of 
this therapy, while helping dispel the irresponsible confusion which 
now exists. 

New minds will contribute to that effort. Thank you for joining.
Please let us know who you are and what you want and need.

Be well,

Mike Devour

Re: re-garding collodial silver, copper,?

1998-04-30 Thread It's not me
I sure would not try this unless I was in a pinch.  . is a measure of
silvers purity, but  90 percent silver coinage tells you little about the
10% that isn't silver.  Remember, things that might be acceptable in a coin,
may not be healthy in your body.  Coins are cast with no particular
attention given to the fact that someone may ingest them.  :-)  Think along
the lines of surgical or food grade quality when putting things in your
body.  If someone gave you a pill that they said was 90% vitamin C, wouldn't
you want to know what the other 10% was before you took the pill.  I think
natural and folk medicine is great, but be wary, there is a line that is
crossed that just doesn't make good sense (at least to me).  Be careful of
the more is better thinking.  Colloidal silver is fine and appears to have
at least some antidotal and research evidence to support it's use.  All
these other colloids, I am just not sure about.  Somebody, somewhere will
start selling colloidal uranium, and the bad thing is that people will beat
a path to his/her door to buy it.

Subject: re-garding collodial silver, copper,?


Just for some stimulation of thoughts here,
in perception magazine they had 2 articles on making your own cs,
the author did mention using pure 999 silver, but also mentioned one
could try using silver coins which are 90 % pure silver and copper and
one other metal (not nickle) and said copper is a benifit also.
So wondering if using silver coins might not be good to have with
these other items being made. they also made mention that some
collodial mineral water had in it's list of minerals arsenic, and commented
it interesting to have a poison mineral there and mentioned one other
type of mineral that is known as a poison but in collodial form might
not be harmful in small ppm. maybe it might be positive.

 Hi there Frank and list,

  Another article states that the smaller the particles
 the lighter the colour. Clear for  best/smallest, light  yellow for
 acceptable, then onto to brown, green and gray for much bigger
 particles.

 I made some clear HVAC CS with a huge particle size (0.114 micron). My
 light yellow CS made with 30VDC has a particle size smaller than 0.026 micron.

How did you check the particle sizes ?
Is the HVAC unit commercial or did you make it yourself and what voltage does it
run at?

Regards..Frank

I guess the risk of the solder becoming immersed in the solution giving you

Re: re-garding collodial silver, copper,?

1998-04-30 Thread M. G. Devour
Hello Michael,

Welcome aboard! I noticed you and several other new people have 
joined the list in the last couple of days. Glad you're here, folks!

Thanks for jumping on in Michael, let's see what others come up with 
in response. Here's mine:

 So wondering if using silver coins might not be good to have with
 these other items being made.

I like to know what's in my product. And I'd like to know what that 
other metal is you mention. If you've got a half-percent of lead or 
something else nasty in there you could be in a world of hurt! If I 
wanted to experiment with a metal other than silver, I'd start from a 
pure source.

We've discussed silver, gold, and copper from time to time here, as 
the subject always comes up. I don't remember a lot of positive info 
on colloidal copper. Input anyone?

 they also made mention that some  collodial mineral water had in
 it's list of minerals arsenic, and  commented it interesting to
 have a poison mineral there and  mentioned one other type of
 mineral that is known as a poison but in  collodial form might not
 be harmful in small ppm. maybe it might be  positive. 

I have a bottle here of something called Body Booster, A liquid 
concentrate of 38,000 mg of a natural assortment of 77 water soluble 
minerals from prehistoric plants. The detail copy says 
approximately 77 minerals, though the list contains Hydrogen, 
Oxygen, and Nitrogen!! LOL

Anyway, among the 74 others is a whole list of things which could be
nasty: cobalt, strontium, mercury, flourine, cesium, bromine,
arsenic, tin, a ton of transition metals and rare earths. They go out 
of there way to mention Aluminum Hydroxide, rather than elemental 
aluminum. That's the only item listed as a compound.

The assumption is if you ate a varied diet of produce and game from
truly fertile soil you'd be getting  trace amounts of all of them.
They are also supposed to be complexed and chelated and compounded
in such a way as to be bioavailable and non-toxic. 

If you would like to read about the source and history of this kind
of product go to http://www.advancedbio.com. The T. J. Clark
people claim to be the original source and I've heard nothing to
disprove it.

The Body Booster product is from a company inscrutibly named TRC,
Tulsa, OK 74128, 1-800-423-7662. I have no clue who they are or
where the stuff comes from. I don't endorse it in any way beyond
having used most of a bottle and not had any body parts fall off yet.
Their product was what my local health food store had on the shelf.

There are other colloidal mineral products from de-salinated seawater 
(or Great Salt Lake water) or various clays and soils. I have no 
experience with them.

Personally I firmly believe that mineral supplementation is a good 
thing. I *do* feel better when I'm using a quality supplement. I used 
Amway's Nutrilite XX (double-X) for some years and always got a boost 
from it. I'm experimenting with others now out of curiosity.

There are other sources and product people have used successfully, 
and I'm sure they'll jump in with their (non-commercial) 
recommendations.

 Just thoughts
 mike slivinski 

Good questions.

I'm looking forward to others' thoughts.
