James:

While Dr. Becker did indeed show many marvels with silver and tissues, a
stipulation needs to be understood:

This work was done by using silver AND very minute amounts of current.

Dr. Bart Flick disagrees with Dr. Becker insofar as cells completely
reverting to stem stells ( not in the cancer instance specifically ).  Dr.
Bart Flick has stated publically that he agrees that morphogenic changes may
be taking place, but does not agree that the process goes so far as
completely reverting.

Subsequent tests ( unpublished, sadly ) by an FDA certified lab have shown
that a high quality isolated silver, in at least one instance, killed
"immortal" ( cancer ) cells.  I do not know the specifics, only that the
report was authentic ( and the test on the cancer cells was actually
accidental ).  In this case, the cells did not revert; all were killed.  Of
course, these studies were in-vitro studies and not in-vivo studies.

I think the discrepencies in the various opinions and reports have to do
with the amount of current applied at the site with the silver.  I think in
Dr. Beckers case, the small amount of current changed the cell permeability
and allowed the silver ions ( definately not particles ) to fully penetrate
the cells.

     The esteemed Dr. Bart Flick and Gregg Silver, Ivan A., S. Quinto -
Silverlist commentary that contains a few fantastic gems of thought,
especially since Dr. Flick and Gregg very seldom enter in public
conversations.

   Summary of Dr. Robert O. Beckers work

http://www.silvermedicine.org/silveriondeliver.html

  Our initial work with iontophoresis and silver.

On that note, I'm sad to state that Dr. Becker has been quite ill.  This is
tragic beyond comprehension as he has not had the chance to finish his
latest and greatest work with tissue regeneration, silver, and bone marrow
cell transplants.  I do not personally correspond with him, but I was
recently notified that he has been quite ill, condition undisclosed.

Best Regards,

Jason
