...and that the presence of silver dose a lot more than kill bacteria, it
helps the body regenerate tissue by de-differentiating blood cells and that
allows the blood cells to change into any other types of cells in the body
to regenerate the tissue.
So the presence of the CS in the blood basically gives you an army of new
cells to go regenerate any tissue that needs it.
Anyway this has re-stimulated my interest in taking CS beyond just as an
antibiotic.

"Silver Helps Regrow Tissues in Hundreds of Patients - Destroyed Cells
Regenerate With Silver-Based Procedure"
by Samuel Etris Senior Technical Consultant to The Silver Institute
Silver can help regenerate human cells that have been destroyed by disease
or damaged in >accidents.
The silver-based procedure has been so successful in clinical tests, that
one patient who had >sustained three crushed fingers in an accident grew
new tissue immediately. Within 2-1/2 months, >skin coverage was complete
and there was normal, full sensation, good blood supply and all joints >had
a normal range of motion. If left untreated, the 3~year-old electrician's
fingers would have >fallen off after turning black with gangrene, and he
would have been left with a totally useless hand. >In fact, his orthopedic
surgeon recommended amputation of al1 three fingers, but the patient

The mechanism by which silver ions help rebuild tissue has been studied for
more than a decade by >Robert O. Becker, M. D., Becker Biomagnetics,
Lowville, New York. Becker first reported his findings >at the First
International Conference on Silver and Gold in Medicine, cosponsored by The
Silver >Institute in 1987.
In the decade since, this technique has been used in a clinical setting at
Mountain Medical >Specialties in Lakemont, Georgia, where hundreds of
patients with various wounds have recovered. >In addition, a laboratory

are produced. These stem cells are responsible for the reconstruction >of
destroyed tissue at a pace considerably faster than if the wound had been
left to heal by itself. In >other cases, the wound might not heal at all
without the introduction of these stem cells
"The advantages of this technique," says Becker, "are the ease of use, use
of the patient's own cells, >no immune reaction, no need to use human
fetusus as a source of stem cells, no need for anti->rejection drugs and it
is economic." [bag - the pharmas just hate that]
On September 29, 1998, Becker received a U.S. patent (5,814,094) for the
devices, materials and >techniques involved in regeneration of tissue using
silver ions.
After several hundred cases, Becker believes that the technique works in
three stages. The first stage >is the chemical combination of the highly
active free silver ions with all bacteria or fungi present in >the wound
that are inactivated within 20 to 30 minutes. The second stage occurs over

normally cause wound healing by scar formation) >to cause them to revert to
their embryonic state, becoming stem cells. These cells are universal
>building blocks whose role is to reconstruct new tissue regenerating the

In the final stage, silver ions form a complex with the living cells in the

effect was noted.
No other known treatment provides sufficient numbers of the embryonic or
stem cells required for >true regeneration of damaged or destroyed tissue

US Patent # 5,814,094
Iontopheretic System for Stimulation of Tissue Healing and Regeneration
( 9-29-1998 )
Becker, Robert O., et al.
I believe Dr. Becker and collaborators never mention that by simply drinking
a few ounces of EIS our body will regenarate any tissue. Our blood cells are
not stem-cells either. He only mentions that
there is the potential not only for the healing of near-surface wounds, but
for regenerative repair of >internal organs such as the heart, liver, brain
and the spinal cord.
Even for superficial damages, such as burns and abrasions, the very good
results he obtained were through the use of silver (Powder, EIS, Gel, or
what form of it?) with special nylon tissue PLUS local electrolisis. This is
not something as simple as only having a few sips of EIS a day. It is far
more complicated, specially for regenerative repair of internal organs such
as the heart, liver, brain and the spinal cord.This POTENTIAL is tremendous,
but I have not heard that has been developed yet.
