CSDistilling CS

2000-07-04 Thread Ivan Anderson
I distilled some colloidal silver, 22ppm lvdc, and was surprised to find
a few ppm remained in the distillate as measured by ISE.

I used lab glassware, in a rough and ready experiment, and didn't
calibrate the ISE. I haven't time to do it properly (working 14 hr days
during holidays), maybe someone else could have a go.

Re: CSProperties of Colloids

2000-07-04 Thread Ivan Anderson
Thanks George,

Perhaps timely to note that colloidal silver, especially clear type,
approaches the limit of what is defined a 'classic colloid' and do not
share many of the properties of the generally much larger particles.

In some ways CS and other ultra-small colloids behave more like
solutions,eg show no Tyndall effect, highly solvated and so on.

Regards
Ivan.

Roger,

Surely this investigation is flawed, or at least back to front.

Would it not have been of greater interest to find the most effective
silver colloid, and then determine particle size and method of
production, rather than eliminate subjects (15) according to particle
size, and then test the remaining (4) for efficacy?

The results may well be the same...but what is the reason for making
colloidal silver in the first place.

 Marshall: Not only the FDA, but Professor Gibbs of the University of
Delaware
 in his recently published booklet, Silver Colloids: Do They Work?,
screened
 15 commercial CS products using two independent microscopic techniques
to
 determine particle size distribution. I believe the only type of CS
that made
 it through both types of microscopic screening requirements was that
produced
 by HVAC. From there he went on to test for effectiveness in killing a
 moderately resistant bacteria. Only one of the remaining 4 (I believe)
HVAC
 products was given a 4 star rating (5 star is the highest possible
 rating). The remainder got 3 star or lower.

Ivan:

Why not repeat the experiment two additional times. Use 22 PPM silver from 
silver nitrate for the first test, and 22 PPM silver from silver chloride for 
the second test. I do a lot of charging measurements with lead acid batteries 
where sulfuric acid 'misting' is a known transport phenomenon. Hard to avoid 
really.

2000-07-04 Thread James Allison
It's really a shame that he needs proof.  I related an experience a while
back about how colloidal silver healed a 10 month old baby of pneumonia.
Since then, I have seen the same results with other cases of pneumonia.  I
had a friend who's son my wife and I watched on a daily basis for over 12
years.  His wife is an RN and worked for Cigna all the time that we were
watching their son.  We told them time and time again about colloidal
silver, but they refused to take a serious look at it.  A month ago, the
husband came down with pneumonia and we did everything but tie him up to try
and make him take some colloidal silver.  His wife refused to ask the
doctors she worked with about it,  and wanted nothing to do with the snake
oil.  Well, he got so bad after a week that he was admitted to the
hospital, and he never made it out.  The funeral was nice I heard, and now
upon reflection, I'm sorry I was so angry at him and his wife for not trying
colloidal silver, that I didn't go.

I know that if he had tried colloidal silver, he would have never have had
to go to the hospital, but like so many others, he refused to try colloidal
silver because there were no real medical studies to support it.  Since
then, I have a very bad attitude with people that refuse to try something
that has the potential to heal, because they need more proof.  If they
refuse to try something that could help, won't hurt, can cure and has cured,
then let them live in pain and sorrow, and possibly die from their
ignorance.

I know, pretty strong words, but I've been there, seen it, done it.  We know
it won't hurt, doesn't have side effects and CAN and HAS healed.  He still
doesn't want to try it?  Well, people have been living in pain, and dieing,
because stupid choices for a long time, and will continue to do so for a
long time to come.

Sorry for sounding so jaded fellow and fellowette listers, but coming to
terms with all of this is not an easy thing for me.  I guess I'm still in
the anger stage.

I am precisely in the position that your husband fears. Greater
Smokies tests showed ZERO beneficial bacteria and pathogenic
amounts of two very bad guys. I did not however have this test
PRIOR to use of CS so I am not drawing any conclusions, other than
caution. I used CS extensively and in largeish amounts for some
long time. I am definately not cured of Candida. I do think it
cleans it out of your blood nicely and probably the muscles?? Have
you studied the mercury/heavy metal connection in some? I have not
followed this list heavily lately.

Dear Nancy,
 Candida is a yeast. Friendly bacteria don`t really have anything to do with
Candida. Yeast usually takes over when all the bugs, good and bad, are
killed off by antibiotics. Now that they are gone, the Candida has the whole
place for itself!
Itchy, icky...
 CS doen`t usually get the good bacteria, as it is absorbed before it gets
to the gut. I`ve been taking CS for over four years now, no Candida, no
problems with bacteria, good or bad.
 Wheat is a highly allergenic food for some. CS tends to strengthen the
immune system, making it work better, thus easing the allergies. I used to
be asthmatic; no more! I`ll still get itchy eyes, or sneezes, so out comes
the CS bottle, and I`m better in minutes.
 Tell him to give it a try, it won`t hurt, and will probably help him a lot!
Marsha

CSMaking CS

2000-07-04 Thread Terry Wayne
Listers,

When producing CS, I haven't figured out why to use
batteries, apart from portability. Why not use one or
two 12-volt adapters? They never run down like
batteries, and they don't get weaker as time goes by.
Where I live, I can buy a new 12-volt adapter for $10.
It costs me that much or more for 3 quality 9-volt
batteries. (The cheap ones don't last long at all.) I
see them repeatedly at yard sales and Goodwill-type
stores very economically priced.

Before I switched to HVDC I used sets of 2 or 3
adapters (12 - 36 volts) on a daily basis. The quality
of the CS batches frequently varied (determined by
color and turbidity), but the efficacy of the CS
seemed constant.

Regarding Professor Gibbs: Did he test HVDC? I am
unaware of anyone else besides myself who is using
HVDC to produce CS on a commercial quantity basis. I
would very much like to see the results of testing on
HVDC. How does it compare to HVAC? LVDC?

James,
So sad about your friend. 
I've noticed several phenomena when telling people about CS.  Some trust 
nobody but the doctor even though he's not helping them.  Some don't like 
anybody telling them anything--they're not skeptics, they're know-it-alls.  
And some are afraid you're warming up to a sales pitch.   Few  believe they 
can make something for 20 cents a quart that can keep them well.  People sure 
are strange.  It's risky to look gullible and seek truth, but it's definitely 
worth the risk.

SOURCE so I'm convinced that it works! What I don't like about it is that I 
have yet to produce a DC CS product that is stable for more than six weeks. I 
know it can be done; I just haven't been able to do it myself. I wonder how 
many silver listers have run into this same problem? And it IS a problem if 
the strength of your CS weakens over time, and you're not aware of it, how 
can you be sure that it is still potent enough to destroy those little 
critters just when you may need it the most? Roger

Without the pH maintenance, photographic development would be
difficult to control since both acid and/or base are being generated
with every silver ion to silver atom conversion within the image

Which I should add was a reference given in an interesting must read
CS research paper by John Marshall Dudley (any relation Marshall?) at:
http://www.silver-lightning.com/research2.html

The merits (or not) of drinking coffee aside, could components of coffee
(mixed in the stomach or bloodstream) contribute to making CS less
effective or more gray/bluing? Drinking coffee out of silver goblets
doesn't seem to be a good idea, but what about stirring with a silver
spoon; could that release photosensitive silver into the coffee? I know
I'm stretching things a little here but just trying to draw the question
out a bit.

What do they mean that both acid and/or base are being generated with
every silver ion to silver atom conversion during development? Wouldn't
the reverse also be true, going from atom to ion? Are both base and acid
being created as we make CS, even LVDC, but then quickly neutralizing
each other? Or not so quickly? A case for stirring?

Also, I thought I'd read here that CS in ion form isn't photoreactive,
yet this talks of the developing process being a conversion from ion to
atom. Can anyone explain what I'm missing?

Many years of coffee (more recently French Market which has a lot(?)
of chicory in it) and several years of CS hasn't turned me gray/blue,
but that might because the Oregon rain hasn't let me get exposed enough
prior to development (sorry but couldn't resist:~D)

Thanks :-)

Would it not have been of greater interest to find the most effective

The results may well be the same...but what is the reason for making
colloidal silver in the first place.

Absolutely!  The investigator has somehow predetermined what particle
size should be tested.  Perhaps there's something in the report that
talks about his assumptions.  If not, that would be another flaw.

My husband has candida and has been advised by doctor to avoid all wheat

painful GERDS, which has cost him 3-4 years of not being able to sleep in
prone position..

I had to sleep sitting in a chair (I bought a recliner for this to
keep my feet elevated) for many months due to a sinus infection --
which I've figured out to be some kind of fungus.  (The MDs couldn't
touch it with all their tests and medicines.)

I cannot get him to even try CS for the candida problem, tho I feel sure I
have read that it  has cured candida.  He maintains that since CS kills
bacteria how will it know not to kill friendly bacteria, which is the origin
of candida in the first place.  

He's half right, IMO.

It's easy enough to get friendly bacteria into the intestinal tract,
which is the only place it should be.  CS (I drink about 8 oz daily,
spread out) is helping with the fungus -- slowly.

What worked immediately is the Zapper (Clark's -- using a 1 kHz square
wave of 9-volt pulses, a 12 to 13.5 volt power supply, limited to 1 mA
current).  I tried this quack remedy as a last resort (I've a degree
in physics, a certificate in EE and am a ham radio operator and KNEW
that low voltage pulses couldn't possibly cure anything).

After months of mild to extreme pain for hours daily, the Zapper
produced some relief within a day (actually, noticed a slight
subsidence within an hour, but can't really say it was the Zapper
producing it).  I used the Zapper 3 times daily for the first several
days, then once daily for a while.  

I was feeling so good -- and able to get some real sleep IN BED --
after a week or two that I forgot to use it enough.  So I had a mild
relapse -- and had several people reminding me to use it. :)

Right now I use it once every few weeks.  I should use it more often
to make sure the fungus is gone -- which it isn't quite, but I'm
concerned about the accounts of electroporasis(sp?).  I've noticed no
side effects from Zapping, though. 

At the time I started the Zapper, I had tried just about everything to
clear up the problem as it had been getting worse for many years -- so
much so that I wasn't able to work.  

I drank cayenne pepper juice (somewhat diluted, 25% Franks and 75%
distilled water).  I drank vinegar (raw apple cider), took 50 grams
(50,000 mg) of Vitamin C daily.  I had most of my teeth pulled (in
case the infection was originating there -- some probably was).  I got
a juicer and drank at least a quart of carrot juice daily
(supplemented with other juices).  I grew and juiced wheatgrass.  I
cut out grain products -- wheat, rice, corn, etc. -- (before trying
the wheatgrass).  I cut out various other food groups for a month or
two.  I tried all sorts of other natural remedies.

Some of the above had minor effects, but nothing did the job except
the Zapper.  About the only thing I didn't try (because I could find
no info at the time) was the magnetic pulser.  But I'm going to cobble
one of them together as soon as I find a electronic flash unit big
enough for the job.

Dear Hope,
 It made me shake my head, as CS, taken internally, is what cured me of
Lyme, and nothing else! I have read post after post on the Lyme ng, for over
4 years, from folks saying how, once they had stopped their abx, their Lyme
recurred. Not one could actually claim the abx had cured them.
 Some say they aren`t totally cured with CS, but all have reported that they
do feel much better than they did with abx. Others say that CS in
combination with the zapper has done the trick.
We are all different, we have to keep trying. In my opinion, CS is really
worth it.
It did cure me, thank God! You have nothing to lose trying CS, and hopefully
it will do as well for you as it did for me!!
Love and best wishes,
Marsha

James, your frustration and anger is shared by me as well. I don't have
the 'faith' in the medical community that many people have. I know
without a doubt that they err a lot of the time and we are the ones who
suffer. Just because they have a degree doesn't mean they know it all or
are the gods they want us to believe. 

It's very sad to see people going without the help they could get
because they won't try this simple solution to so many ailments or
illnesses.

 It's really a shame that he needs proof.  I related an experience a while
 back about how colloidal silver healed a 10 month old baby of pneumonia.
 Since then, I have seen the same results with other cases of pneumonia.  I
 had a friend who's son my wife and I watched on a daily basis for over 12
 years.  His wife is an RN and worked for Cigna all the time that we were
 watching their son.  We told them time and time again about colloidal
 silver, but they refused to take a serious look at it.  A month ago, the
 husband came down with pneumonia and we did everything but tie him up to try
 and make him take some colloidal silver.  His wife refused to ask the
 doctors she worked with about it,  and wanted nothing to do with the snake
 oil.  Well, he got so bad after a week that he was admitted to the
 hospital, and he never made it out.  The funeral was nice I heard, and now
 upon reflection, I'm sorry I was so angry at him and his wife for not trying
 colloidal silver, that I didn't go.
 
 I know that if he had tried colloidal silver, he would have never have had
 to go to the hospital, but like so many others, he refused to try colloidal
 silver because there were no real medical studies to support it.  Since
 then, I have a very bad attitude with people that refuse to try something
 that has the potential to heal, because they need more proof.  If they
 refuse to try something that could help, won't hurt, can cure and has cured,
 then let them live in pain and sorrow, and possibly die from their
 ignorance.
 
 I know, pretty strong words, but I've been there, seen it, done it.  We know
 it won't hurt, doesn't have side effects and CAN and HAS healed.  He still
 doesn't want to try it?  Well, people have been living in pain, and dieing,
 because stupid choices for a long time, and will continue to do so for a
 long time to come.
 
 Sorry for sounding so jaded fellow and fellowette listers, but coming to
 terms with all of this is not an easy thing for me.  I guess I'm still in
 the anger stage.

I'd be drinking pints, if not quarts, of my HVAC CS DAILY, and I would

Re: CSMaking CS

2000-07-04 Thread Steve Young
Terry,

I, and no doubt other silver-listers, would be interested in more details on
your HVDC method of generating CS.   I use what I suppose one would call
medium voltage DC (a few hundred volts) at a constant low current.  But
after a few minutes, as the conductivity of the CS goes up, most of the
generation cycle is below 50 volts, i.e. LVDC.  I have not heard of others
using HVDC.

Are you using many thousands of volts DC?  If so, please explain your
setup - is it like a Bruce Marx arrangement?  Are you using filtered HVDC,
or just rectifiers without filter caps?  Etc.  Please share how you do it
with us.

Thanks,

Steve Young

Subject: CSMaking CS


 Listers,

 When producing CS, I haven't figured out why to use
 batteries, apart from portability. Why not use one or
 two 12-volt adapters? They never run down like
 batteries, and they don't get weaker as time goes by.
 Where I live, I can buy a new 12-volt adapter for $10.
 It costs me that much or more for 3 quality 9-volt
 batteries. (The cheap ones don't last long at all.) I
 see them repeatedly at yard sales and Goodwill-type
 stores very economically priced.

 Before I switched to HVDC I used sets of 2 or 3
 adapters (12 - 36 volts) on a daily basis. The quality
 of the CS batches frequently varied (determined by
 color and turbidity), but the efficacy of the CS
 seemed constant.

 Regarding Professor Gibbs: Did he test HVDC? I am
 unaware of anyone else besides myself who is using
 HVDC to produce CS on a commercial quantity basis. I
 would very much like to see the results of testing on
 HVDC. How does it compare to HVAC? LVDC?
