I suspect you gave it EIS, which is about 85% ionic silver and 15% colloidal. If that is the case, that the 85% likely crossed the barrier and effected relief is no indication that the remaining colloidal 15% did. As far as I know the only supplier of near 100% colloidal silver is Frank Key, and his is very expensive.

Marshall -- I'm probably the least knowledgeable person on this list -- but my own experience leads me to believe that colloidal silver _does_ cross the blood-brain barrier. At least in horses it does. That's how I came to learn about CS in the first place -- my horse had EPM, a neurological disease caused by protozoa crossing the blood-brain barrier and setting up breeding sites in the spinal column, which caused inflammation, swelling and neuro symptoms. The only way to treat the disease was to use a product that also crossed the blood-brain barrier, and evidence of this happening was a healing crisis in the horse where their symptoms actually worsened for awhile (as the protozoa started dying) before gradually improving -- sometimes to a complete recovery. Colloidal silver caused such a healing crisis in our horses (called a *downturn* in equine medical reference to this disease) -- so we knew that CS was crossing the blood brain barrier. Otherwise, there would have been no reaction to the ingestion of CS -- and no recovery for these horses, many of whom had already been treated by standard veterinary treatments/drugs. I realize that this is only word-of-mouth (can't think of the right term for that) evidence -- but you would have a hard time convincing a whole bunch of EPM-horse owners that it wasn't true. FWIW.

I have read that colloidal silver does not cross the barrier, but that silver citrate does. If that is the case I suspect that silver chloride cross it as well, but is very limited due to its lack of solubility. If I wanted to get silver to the brain, I will mix with something that has citric acid before drinking it, such as gatorade or citric fruit juice.

Just a few months ago on a lyme forum a lady had fast developing paralysis. CS reversed it very quickly. This, and many other anecdotes, would suggest that CS does cross the BBB to a meaningful degree.

    Is there information on silver crossing the blood brain barrier?
     Informed person says it does.   I witnessed someone putting a
    poultice of c silver on the arm and this seemed to cause a
    slightly raised, de pigmented scar tissue like area.

    If I can vaguely remember, Becker said that silver can de
    differentiate cells and that skin mediated voltage fields can
    sustain a re differentiation and thus some regeneration of limb
    and bone, even cancerous.  I may not have it right, but I dont
    have the book anymore.  Another part of the conundrum is that
    when the silver forms brown stains on the colloidal making
    apparatus, this is very difficult to clean.  So I imagine the
    silver staining the brain and causing dedifferentiation and this
    seems totally frightening.  What is uncontrolled
    de-differentiation?  Perhaps almost a cancer, perhaps a scar
    tissue, but anyway, not good I can imagine.   Sorry if this has
    been covered, I looked at the archives but didnt find anything....

    thanks
