Thanks Marshall -- thanks to you, Sol and Mike -- it all makes sense. MA
________________________________ From: Marshall Dudley mdud...@king-cart.com Whoever wrote that is making it up as they go along. They have run no tests at all, I and others here have, and the results are that colloidal silver kills both aerobic and anaerobic bacteria equally. That they say one must wonder why says it all, they have not read the research. There really is no such thing as good and bad bacteria, it depends on where it is growing. Yeast in your bread or beer or wine making is good, in your blood is bad. E coli in your intestines is essential, but in your blood or vagina is bad. But it turns out that CS does differentiate between bacteria which are where they are "good" and "bad" to a large extent. It turns out through our testing that CS will kill bacteria when it comes in contact with them, but does not if it doesn't. Thus if it has good mobility, it kills, whether on the skin, or in the stomach, or blood stream. But if it is in a solid, or semisolid it is almost inert, so it does not kill bacteria in the intestines if you have a normal stool. It does however kill bacteria in the intestines if you have dysentery, since the contents will be liquid. This is a fantastic ability of colloidal silver. BTW many if not most bacteria will convert from aerobic to anaerobic if they are cut off from oxygen and back again when exposed to air, which also contradicts the notion that aerobic are good and anaerobic are bad. The reason for this assumption is that normally bacteria in open air do good deeds (rot wood, keep the skin clean and so forth), and those that have to go anaerobic because of lack of air tend to cause problems (botulism, infections), but there are exceptions, yeast is anaerobic and makes bread and alcoholic drinks, anaerobic bacteria also make vinegar, and are essential to proper digestion in the intestines.
