Hi Dee. Thanks for your reply. Yes -- the PET bottles are the hard, clear plastic ones, right? I'm trying to find out if the opaque plastic jugs are still considered to be a poor choice for storing CS. Thanks. MA -- Original message from "Dee " d...@deetroy.org: -- Hi MA, I am wrestling with this problem (still, I hear you say?) and I actually bought new PET bottles because of having problems with CS going yellow in used bottles.

I am now on the fourth day and the batch is still clear, so I am hopeful that I have solved the problem. The upshot of all this rambling is; that PET bottles are supposed to be OK for CS but I have had problems with first batches.

CSSilver resistant bacteria

Re: CSWhat is High in Potassium ? also clays
I agree, Wayne, most fresh fruits are wonderful, and without our even knowing, we get healed from so many things, just by eating good fresh foods. I struggled with some legs cramps over the winter and now they are gone. How, I am not too sure. I did take supplements trying to see which one would work, not sure if it was that or not. But I keep the E-mergen-C in a pocket and if I get leg cramps while exercising, they clear right up with that now. That suggests to me a potassium lacking, or more likely higher usage of K when exercising. However, I am also tolerating more of other minerals too, and over time that may also be helping. I took some Azomite for awhile, but ended up having a reaction to it. Then it was suggested to me to stir it up with some CS water before drinking it down. I have not done that yet, not sure what I am waiting for, but just not in the mood. Had the same thing happen with the bentonite I tried out.

Re: CSSilver resistant bacteria
I agree it is quite interesting, Michael. The only silver resistant bacteria we've heard about before were found in mineral deposits where silver was in high concentration in the growth medium. Resistance was quickly lost by future generations of the bugs when removed from the silver rich environment. At least a few common types of bacteria were found to behave this way if I remember the stories right. If at least a few bacteria pathogenic in humans turn out to have this ability as well, *and* it can be turned on by the kind of exposure to silver that occurs with routine CS use, then this can become a problem. I suspect (and hope!) we're not on the verge of wholesale silver resistance of run-of-the-mill bacteria in everyday life. Not if ongoing, mult-generational exposure is needed to turn on that defense mechanism, and removal from the silver-rich environment breaks the cycle. In a word, I won't panic yet.

CSRestless Leg Syndrome (Ivory Soap or D3)
Hi, Dee, Who knows how it works, but such a simple cost of opening a new bar of ivory soap, it's definitely worth the try! The People's Pharmacy have other home remedies for things like nose bleeds - take your car keys and drop them down the back of your shirt; gin soaked raisins for arthritis. These crazy things seem to work for some. Worth a try in my opinion. But as far as working, it depends on what the cause of the problem is. If this doesn't work, you're on to the next idea. Take care, Cindy Hi, Faith, Don't remember what you said - do you have restless leg syndrome or was it something else? I used to have back issues and couldn't figure out why, including some muscle spasms. Was going to the chiropractor at least every 6 weeks. Now that I added vitamin D3, haven't been there in over 8 months. Keep looking until you find what works. It's out there! Take care, Cindy

The centrally located six genes are found and functional in the chromosome of Escherichia coli K-12, and also occur on the genome of E. coli O157:H7. The use of molecular epidemiological tools will establish the range and diversity of such resistance systems in clinical and non-clinical sources. Silver compounds are used widely as effective antimicrobial agents to combat pathogens (bacteria, viruses and eukaryotic microorganisms) in the clinic and for public health hygiene. Silver cations (Ag+) are microcidal at low concentrations and used to treat burns, wounds and ulcers. Ag is used to coat catheters to retard microbial biofilm development. Ag is used in hygiene products including face creams, alternative medicine health supplements, supermarket products for washing vegetables, and water filtration cartridges. Ag is generally without adverse effects for humans, and argyria (irreversible discoloration of the skin resulting from subepithelial silver deposits) is rare and mostly of cosmetic concern.
