Mark Metcalf has done a handsome re-work of his site. It's quite 
good. He's also moderated some of his rhetoric about the 
salt/no-salt, clear vs. golden controversy. He handles it quite 
even-handedly. Thanks. I didn't know where his site had gone to.

 By the way, does the Silver-List have archives of past messages ?

Not on-line. I have a year's worth, nearly every posting. I wonder if 
anyone else has any from before that? Eventually, an archive attached 
to the web site would be a great tool.

Thanks, Bill!

Hello All,

Regarding using silver us coins 64 and preceding years.

From Article in perceptions magazine 1996 may/june by author Mark Metcalf,
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
properties if used in a collodial state. Just scour the coins until they are
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 
(.9275 fine) since sterling contains copper and nickle. NICKLE CAN BE TOXIC.
(With this in mind, you may want to get a chemical analysis (assay) of your
purchased silver in addition to the written word of your supplier.)end of quote

Article is information packed.
thanks mike slivinski

Re: re-garding collodial silver, copper,?

1998-04-30 Thread Nancy B.
Regarding purity of silver in coins, I couldn't resist sharing one of my
dad's favorite lines-- my father is a preacher in what's left of his free
time.

Rat poison is 98% pure food.  It's the 2% you have to watch out for!  He
uses this line in reference to warning of false teachings, which is the most
emphasized theme of the New Testament, and regarding fanciful promises
politicians and salespeople make, etc.

I'm also thinking of the funny, old Ritz cracker commercial-- Looks the
same.  Got the same # of holes!

(Another voice...) Just don't taste the same.

Michael is right.  Why mess around with unknowns?  Let silver coins be
silver coins.  Silver wire is not expensive and easy to get.  That's the
way to go, unless you have your own chem lab to test everything.

Nancy B.

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

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.

Just for some stimulation of thoughts here,

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

commented
it interesting to have a poison mineral there and mentioned one other

not be harmful in small ppm. maybe it might be positive.

With those qualifiers, I absolutely agree, particularly for topical

worse, using coins makes sense.

More valid advice. We're going to need a electrode materials FAQ 
and this has to be prominent within it.

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:

 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.

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.

Good questions.

I'm looking forward to others' thoughts.
