  Subject: CS anectdotal evidence?


  I'm really frustrated. I have searched the net and found everything I could 
find on colloidal silver and all it's benefits and there is lots of great info. 
I am trying to prove to my father inlaw that the claims about cs are true. He 
says all you have is anecdotal evidence and no "clinical proof". I tried to 
explain to him that the pharmaceutical companies won't pay millions for 
clinical trials for something they can't patent. He says he trusts what Dr Andy 
Weil says about cs and which is that there is no clinical proof that it works. 
I sent him the testimonies, UCLA tests and BYU tests but these were done in 
petri dishes and test tubes. Are there any cs clinical trials that have been 
done out there, maybe in Europe ? 
  Thanks
