As I see it, silver stops or slows the proliferation of infectious agents (the cells of which may divide every 20mins) and allows the immune system to catch up to and clear the infection in a shorter time frame than otherwise would have occurred. Far better to be healthy and to have an efficient immune system, than to rely on silver to 'protect' you IMO, and only use silver when required. Ivan. >>
Ivan: So based on your reasoning, taking large doses on CS (only at the onset of illness) would be a better strategy than just trying to take the minimum amount of CS under the same conditions since the body's own immune system is needed for the final elimination of these microbes.
