What I find, nothing short of remarkable, is that twice, as I said, I visited dermatologists. In both cases they gave me some topical ointment as samples. These were tiny samples, and I would keep them going as along as I could. I don't know why I never got a prescription, but the colloidal silver worked nothing short of a miracle. Really, I still don't believe it. On a philosophical basis, I don't think I could ever limit myself to just what science has discovered so far.
First, we know, that changes on a daily basis. But I have too many experiences that I would classify as mystical to feel the need to benchmark them against whatever science has been able to explain. And one of the funny things is, that these experiences have had many practical benefits. Not just the gazing out at the ocean type thing, feeling the wonder of the universe type thing.

Ann sent me some colloidal silver and the first thing it did was dry that patch up. I then continued to apply it, although less often, and it has completely taken the patch away. My knee shows no sign of it, and I've stopped applying the ointment. In fact the little one or two oz. container Ann sent me is probably more than half full. And of course, my athletes foot had a little flair up, and after a couple applications, that has gone as well. That is so great Steve. I will add this to the testimonials when I sell this to my customers. But Sal will accuse me of selling snake oil. Still, although I have not rigorously scientifically tested the product on hundreds of psoriasis cases it appears it worked for you so I can tell them that and they can take their chances on it working for them. Too bad Sal only considers those things that have been confined to a laboratory somewhere and scrutinized by people in white lab coats for years valid or trustworthy. That feels so limited and limiting. During that twenty year period to treat the psoriasis, I visited doctors who prescribed ointments that virtually did no good. One the other hand, if I had a serious ailment, I would straight away go for an allopathic treatment. I have seen (or heard) of too many people with serious ailments get side tracked on useless approaches, only to die in short order. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <noozguru@...> wrote : On 08/22/2014 12:12 PM, Share Long sharelong60@... mailto:sharelong60@...

No, I use the information gleaned from taking workshops in alternative medicine. I used alternative medicine since 1972. You do know you are arguing against people who have actually taken courses in it? = Wow, courses. And how many courses have you taken? = It's not about courses it's about whether what they teach has been thoroughly tested. This is what I've been saying all day, there may be great wonders still to be discovered but until it's as well tested as possible we will not know and end up with the sort of alternative therapies we have which largely involve placebo's and the white coat effect for their efficacy, such as it is. What some folks call "Quackery" may also just be "Folk Medicine" and has a record of never harming anyone compared to many pharmaceuticals. I always love the one ad which is one minute long and 15 seconds for the actual endorsement by a sports figure and then 40 seconds of warnings and disclaimers. Only a fool would want to take that shit. And it also for an ailment that is curable by correcting the metabolic imbalance. And then there is the problem of "proper doctors" misdiagnosing. It happens far too often. I think Salvy's just a "science fan" and not a scientist.
