I forgot to mention in the first edition that the amount of silver water I've been taking is 10-12cc/mls a day -- half in the morning and half at night -- on a completely empty stomach, HELD UNDER THE TONGUE for 15-30 minutes before swallowing. OK... NOW read the rest!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To all concerned, ESPECIALLY those with Cystic Fibrosis (it's a long one, so grab a snack!): As most of you know, I have Cystic Fibrosis (CF) -- a killer "genetic" disease with no known cure as of yet. I have reported periodically on the results of my mucous culture reports as they pertain to the use of Colloidal Silver directly. What makes these culture studies so important is that they are really the guiding light for the CF "doctors" in how they will treat a patient from month to month, which means primarily what drugs they will choose to bombard the poor individual with that will most likely make them as sick (or sicker) than the disease itself (if not immediately, then eventually). Before this latest update I wanted to wait for my most recent report to confirm what I've been suspecting for quite some time: That Colloidal Silver is capable of greatly reducing -- or completely negating -- the use of MOST OR ALL the drugs used in treating lung infections brought on by this deadly disease! It is now confirmed: COLLOIDAL SILVER WORKS! I have had more "clear" culture reports over the past year than ever in my life! Previous to the use of C-Silver, the ONLY way I was able to obtain "clear" cultures was to be admitted into the hospital for a 3-week, 24-hour a day I.V. injection routine of very toxic antibiotics and even then, the cultures would sometimes return with "abnormal flora" results. But *if* the drugs did work to stop the lung infections, within weeks of leaving the hospital, the infections would come back -- even though I was taking powerful oral antibiotics at 2-4 times the normal dose! Then I discovered 2 ways (so far) to achieve keeping my cultures "clear" -- both of which are outside the scope of "approved" medicine in America: Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation and Colloidal Silver. The UBI treatments were *excellent* (but costly) at neutralizing ALL lung infections last summer, at which time I used little or no C-Silver; but since those ended, I have used *nothing but* C-Silver for the treatment of my lung infections! I could have waited another month to file this report, but I think it's obvious enough by now that IT WORKS, and that's all that counts! I will continue to give updates for the sake of all who are "keeping the faith" in this amazing substance for your own ills, and also for any of you who may actually have CF (or know someone who does). FOR ANYONE KNOWING THE SERIOUSNESS THIS DISEASE OR WHO MAY BE LIVING WITH IT PERSONALLY, YOU WILL REALIZE HOW IMPORTANT THIS INFORMATION IS. Repeated lung infections lead to massive scar-tissue that eventuates in death! Stop the lung infections, and you affectively stop the worst aspect of the disease! If I'd had C-Silver just a few years ago, I would not have to be going on the lung transplant list now! And I can tell you I'm very frightened. The prognosis for CF lung transplants is NOT good, and the really sad thing is that it could have been avoided if the lung infections could have been kept at bay for all these years. In keeping with strict "scientific protocol", I feel that it's important to mention at this time the EXACT type of Colloidal Silver that I've been using to achieve these amazing results (at the risk of sounding like I'm selling a particular product): The brand is called WaterOz Silver Mineral Water (the company refuses to call it "colloidal", though it *is* a colloidal suspension). I feel mentioning this is imporant because I *may not* have achieved the same results with "home-brewed" C-Silver. To be honest, I was far too weak and attending to so many things after almost dying last November that I preferred the "ready-made" convenience of WaterOz. It was strictly circumstantial "luck" that I happened to choose this brand; perhaps others would be as affective -- I don't know. But I *DO KNOW* that these culture reports are very thorough and are rarely mistaken -- especially this many times in a one-year period! So I must conclude that the WaterOz Silver Mineral Water is more powerful than drugs like CIPROFLOXACIN HYDROCHLORIDE and SULFANETHOXAZOLE and NORFLOXACIN and CLINDAMYCIN -- just to name a few of the *many* that are prescribed on a regular basis and taken for YEARS with no lasting affect! It even beats some of the most powerful new drugs to come out for CF, like TOBRAMYCIN AEROSOL (which costs $13,000 a year!!). I cannot emphasize enough how important this information is in the treatment of this disease; some of the drugs used are so toxic that patients given them can begin coughing up -- and even urinating -- blood! Other drugs induce side-affects similar to being sea-sick or prevent walking altogether, and nausia is usually a given with even the "milder" drugs. One drug called COLISTIMETHATE SODIUM (Coly-Mycin©) causes serious migrain headaches in many patients! The fact that the CF "community" and medical INDUSTRY continues to ignore the serious effectiveness of Colloidal Silver merely proves, once again, where their heart$ are *REALLY* at! I am LIVING PROOF that CS works! FOR THE RECORD: I avoid ALL -- **ALL** -- dairy! I buy RICE DREAM rice "milk" instead; it takes a little getting used to if you love milk, as I did, but it *will* grow on ya! It has the consistency of skimmed milk and none of the aftertaste of some soy products. THE MILK *WILL* HELP KILL YOU, CF PEOPLE! And cheese is pure death... toxic with NO nutritional value of ANY importance! I drink ONLY distilled water straight or add CONCENTRACE trace minerals to it, and drink fresh carrot juice with 3-5 large cloves of garlic *PRESSED* into it (important) at least twice a week. Sometimes I add apples, though I tend to just eat those! The juice is made from the BIGGER carrots that are more conducive to juicing, NOT the small ones that are sprayed with chemicals. Get "juicing carrots"! A 25-pound bag is only around $11 and they're soooo much easier to work with! I have an ACME, JUICEMAN 2 and a GREEN POWER juicer, but may sell the GREEN POWER and get an Angel Ultima NA-6008 Juice Extractor. I eat *very little* red meat, mostly chicken, fish (mostly WHITE tuna) and turkey. I eat millet on a regular basis (with RICE DREAM and RAW honey added), and a fair amount of oats. *NO* CANDY OR SWEETIE THINGIES (like chocolates and cakes). I use SEA SALT, NOT "TABLE" SALT! This is important for CFers, as salt loss with this disease causes the need for replenishment! I noticed my health improve from just this one little tid-bit because SEA SALT is so much better for the body and CF people lose so much (tho I'm sure the CF "doctors" would chuckle at that statement saying that "salt is salt"). LOTS OF VITAMINS AND MINERAL SUPPLIMENTS! High-quality... NOT Revco brand! And watch out for the vitamin-E! It's a major vitamin for preventing scar tissue in the lungs of CF people and the d-Alpha tocopherals should only be used -- NOT the dl-Alpha!! Just remember: If it has an "L", you LOSE! Take the PLANT-BASED vitamin-D and a good calcium suppliment to prevent bone loss (also common in CF); calcium citrate is considered the best form that I know of. I was just diagnosed with severe osteoporosis because I got smart too late. 1200-1600 mgs a day, and NOT all at once because the gut can only absorb a certain amount at a time; break it into segments! Don't wait til you cough so hard you severely fracture a rib, like I did, before getting wise about calcium! Take C-Complex (like ESTER-C) along with B-complex 100 mgs AT EACH MEAL! You CANNOT OVERDOSE on these! They are very important. I even take a B-50 when snacking! For mucous in the lungs, drink herb teas on a regular basis. The 3 I'm currently using are: HOREHOUND (the name's as good as the taste: Like a barn floor), CHICKWEED and GOLDENSEAL. I mix them together and let them steep FOR AT LEAST 2 HOURS covered with a saucer. I use the RAW tea, NOT the tea bags! These will help move mucous from the lungs. There are MANY other herbs for the lungs but I just happen to be on these right now. I'll be experimenting with LOBELIA TINCTURE from Dr. Schulze starting next week. It's suppose to be superior. I also eat lots of MSM (methylsulfonylmethane): Isolated biological sulphur. I take the POWDER by the teaspoonful, NOT the capsules; it's cheaper! This is *very* important since we don't get enough from all our processed foods. It will help on many levels, but in particular with the lungs (supposedly). I have read accounts of people with severe lung problems being greatly helped from MSM, but it must be taken religiously and possibly for a long time before improvement is noticed. Don't expect to undo many years of damage in one week or one month! A man with very bad lungs from working in a coal mine didn't see improvement for a YEAR! So don't give up; it ain't very expensive and you can't take too much, so do a lot! I also take things like ECHINACEA and ASTRAGALUS and ESSIAC (these may be mispelled), but not continually; also GINSENG. These are immune boosters. Like GARLIC, they can help a lot, but there's debates about whether they should be taken all the time (tho I do take GARLIC continually -- even tho Bob Beck thinks it's poison!). One last little (but major) thing I've discovered: Heartburn and "acid-indigestion" is fairly common in CFers because of a screwed up bowel situation (we don't have our own digestive enzymes). For years, I was living on tums and other antacids and the "doctor" even wanted to prescribe yet another drug at one point. Last summer I "discovered" that Wrigley's DOUBLEMINT gum works like a miracle! It's absolutely amazing how well it takes care of heartburn 99% of the time! I haven't taken an antacid since. This is also important because, quite often, acid in the stomach will cause CFers to go into a coughing spasm (for some reason) and they won't even realize it's related to this! Chew some Wrigley's next time your spazzin out and see if that helps. Just thought I'd throw that in. By the way: I'm 42... in the 1% catagory of survivors. I've said this before, but I think it's important to say it again since I have to believe that my diet and life-style have had something to do with it. Most CF victims die by 25 or 30, so *something* I'm doing MUST be working! And now there's WaterOz Silver Mineral Water for improvement in my methodology! Hope all this helps.
