Welcome James!

Now this is really getting interesting!

There are a lot of commercial solutions that are nowhere near this
concentration! Just in case folks out there are inclined to think this is
the norm for commercial solutions. This is very concentrated.

Not all CS is the same, as you know. Have you compared solutions generated
for different time periods? Different methods/protocols? This would be an
interesting study.
Have you noted the difference in the brownian motion when the solutions are
of much lesser concentrations? 


>Mine is about 200 ppm and is gray in color.

I don't make mine this concentrated, but have consumed several ounces of
well over 100 parts per million, without toxicity due to silver poisoning
(but I did have a herx that lasted over a week before things got back to
normal and it was necessary to use a probiotic to rebuild the intestinal
flora which took about two weeks). Other than that, no problem.

So apparently at least two of us are still alive and havn't turned gray
yet. :)

Since my above experiment to determine the safety of a large dose like
this, I have been sticking with the lesser concentrations, as recommended
by the physicians I have been in contact with and of whose articles I have
read. This has worked for both myself and family and served well through
many different types of healing opportunities. I think we ought to be more
conservative in our dosages, personally.

This is the most I have ever heard of anyone drinking in a single day's
period. Thirty-two ounces of 200 ppm......  How does this line up with the
OSHA standard????????  :) Apples and oranges! NO? Colloidal silver is a
different animal than the silver that is being used to create fear in the
hearts of men, and to pass legislation suppressing the true colloidal
solutions we are manufacturing. Proof once again????? Thanks James!


James, did anyone actually see you do this? Did you get it on video tape,
make a documentary, or anything close? No offense, but this is really hard
to believe. I an not trying to give you a hard time, honestly! Don't other
people think this dosage is a bit extreme? Are there anyother physicians at
Clayton College who advocate such methods?

Now without a calculator...mind you.....

OK....we have 32 ounces of 200ppm CS, that is one quart of 40 X 5 ppm
solution ..or 40 quarts of 5ppm solution is the equivalent. That is 10
gallons of 5ppm CS. LOL

And in a single day?

>       I would suggest you try taking from 2 to 8 ounces per day as a 
>preventative amount of CS. More if an infection is present.

2-8 ounces per day OF WHAT CONCENTRATION doctor?? Two hundred parts per
million? That is equivalent to ten quarts of 5ppm solution. That is really
an extreme dose, even for something with such low toxicity as colloidal
silver (which is virtually nil). It is a potent antibiotic and that much is
capable of knocking out a lot of friendly bacteria along with the
"invaders". That is a tremendous amount of die off.

Now here is an interesting thought, just compare this method with the
method of using a 5cc preparation of 5ppm solution, injected intravenously
over a 5 minute period. Seems like it would not be such an extreme
orientation afterall. NO?


If the additional silver acts as an anti-toxin, then are we looking at an
elimination of the toxins excreted by the dying organisms (this is a well
known effect spoken of frequently on the Rife list , as I recall- I am
still on it by the way). There is still the matter of processing all those
dead organisms, this can be a real load on the kidneys. Or am I being
unecessarily cautious?

I sure would like to see some productive discussion on this one! Pros and
Cons!

James, I have to differ with you, for the sake of safety, and until proven
otherwise. If a man has a serious infection in his body, and his kidneys
and or liver are not able to handle the die off effect , this could throw
him into a herx reaction. To my understanding this could actually cause
kidney failure and serious complications in some people! This concept and
reality has been discussed throughly on the Rife list over the last several
years. Gary Hawkins, our moderator is also closely associated with the Rife
list , maybe we should ask him to be the referee? :) 

It has been my understanding that a gradual approach is the best method in
dealing with an infection. Increasing the dosage over several days. Are you
saying that taking a concentrated dose like you have is safe for everyone
that may be reading this post? Or would you like to qualify this further?

You also mentioned NOTHING about increasing the consumption of water while
taking this enormous amount of antibiotic silver!
This really concerns me, this would be a real setup for the kidneys to be
maxed-out, and to not have additional help from the increased supply of
water to aid in this stress.

Not a good idea for everyone, certainly! For anyone, very likely! I am open
to debate and always willing to listen to reason. 

Is this an unfounded concern? I ask sincerely.

Men like Bob Beck, and many others , recommend a more dilute solution in
the range of 5-10 ppm, and a more gradual method of developing the maximum
dosage. These concentrations have been what I have generally adhered to,
except in personal experimentation. The lesser concentrations have always
worked for us. Do you not use these? Would you please elaborate your reason
for not doing so? Testimonies would be great too!

It is great having you aboard! How long did you say you have been into
colloidal silver?

Well, I don't want to overload you, sorry! Let's save some for next time.

God Bless, and thanks!
