Hi Mike What is the difference between silver list and silver digest? I just subscribed to silver list, and wonder if I should connect with silver digest in addition or instead? I was thinking today about a more organized database for alternate/complementary medical experimentation. Would a programmed format help researchers? I just started using my Hulda Clark-style zapper to try for silver colloid. I noted Reid Smith's recommendations to use only distilled water, and keep the electrodes away from the glass. Also of note is his use of baking soda to start things off. Is this a safe concept? I would prefer to use only distilled water, but it might be difficult to get the process started, and I'm not sure how long it would take to get the desired ppm. Stenulson recommends using 1/4 of the previous batch as a starter, but no baking soda, salt or any other additives. My zapper is designed for skin contact with a 9v battery, and puts out about 4.5 v pulsed dc at about 30 khz. I input 18 v to experiment with silver. Apparently something is happening. Bubbles are forming on the anode and cathode, tarnish is forming on the low end of the anode, on the side next to the glass, and the water became silvery(I hope this doesn't mean silver salts are forming). I had the poles farther apart then recommended, and touching the glass, which Reid Smith does not recommend. My first try at cs was with a large glass baking dish. The poles were about 8" apart, hung from the sides of the dish and touching the dish. My cathode and anode are flat pieces of .999 fine silver 3/4"x 6" long. [These were intended for skin contacts for zapping]. I used a computer power supply rated at 18 vdc. A no-load check with a digital multimeter showed 20+ volts dc, and a check on the ac scale indicated about 1.2v ac. I assumed this was ripple, and that this meant the power supply was not very well regulated. I tried a test run anyway, and used well water, and let the unit run for about 8 minutes. A cloud formed in the middle of the water, which was unevenly dispersed. I reviewed my information later, and assumed this was silver salts which were produced. So I didn't use this batch for internal use-bathing only. The silvery color in the zapper runs was consistent throughout the batch. This led me to believe that my zapper batches were producing true colloid, but since I used well water, I'm not so certain. I'm also not sure of the ppm of the batches. I have been using hydrogen peroxide for several weeks, and have been trying combinations of peroxide and silver. Would you advise adding peroxide before starting the silver process, or after? Dr. Beck ozonates his water during the silver process, which led me to think that adding h2o2 would have similar results.[Most responses to this question are negative.] I have decided to use distilled h2o for cs generation. Every one consulted so far is sure that distilled is best. Some thoughts on distilled water. A nutritionist and a naturopath have Saturday radio programs in the Seattle area. The nutritionist advocates ozone generators and distilled water, the naturopath is against both. A lady who lives on a sailboat mentions that distillation systems on board cannot have metal piping-the distilled water attacks the pipes. She described the water as hungry. If so, then distilled water in the human body would grab any metal salts, undesirable toxins-without pulling good stuff out???By the way, the nutritionist uses electrodermal testing, and only prescribes colloid if the testing is positive. How does Dr. Joel Wallach's colloidal mineral concept match up to colloidal silver? To hear him tell it, Plant Derived Colloidal Minerals Purchased Only From His Company Are The Only Hope For Longevity. He says some very interesting things, and has excellent credentials, but seems to really hype the whole thing to unreal limits. I'd like to propose an emergency zapper, for those who might be caught in a an epidemic or biowarfare situation. Any small gas engine puts out a strong dc pulse at frequencies from 2000 to 8000 hz. This is what the Amazon Indians are reported to use for snakebite. I'm sure that if I was bitten by a bushmaster or coral snake, I could bear the agony of getting zapped from a motor spark, but it's pretty extreme. Is there a way to control the output in an emergency to fight pathogens, snake bites, or even spider bites? With all the people out there who are producing zappers, Beck electrifiers, and all the other gadgets, there still wouldn't be enough to go around. Just about everyone in North America can get to a running gasoline engine. Best regards, John Surgeon -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
