Dee: This is what Jonathan Wright has to say about it. I am quoting this from a 2006 newsletter in which he recommends using colloidal silver. I you want, I can send you a copy of the entire newsletter. I can't attach it here becasue it is a 400K PDF file and I don't believe the filters on this list would pass it: "Although researchers have known of silver's germ-fighting effects for decades, it wasn't until 2000 that scientists finally understood why it worked so well. But first, it's important to understand antibiotics' Achilles' heel. Although germs have three vulnerable targets, any single antibiotic can attack only one of them at a time: (1) the germ's outer membrane, (2) its internal components, or (3) its delicate gene pool. When a germ becomes resistant to an antibiotic, it has learned how to fortify the specific target that the antibiotic attacks. You'd have to take several antibiotics to attack all of the germ's targets simultaneously. But that sets the stage for further problems. Taking multiple antibiotics just increases the odds of wiping out enough friendly bacteria to allow an infection by various fungi (including Candida and other yeast). And in place of the friendly bacteria, "resistant" bacteria set up camp, including the infamous, but all-too-common, hospital residents-staph aureus and clostridia. Antibiotics obviously don't have what it takes to nip these super-bugs in the bud. But that's where colloidal silver comes in. Silver attacks all three of the germ's vulnerable targets at once. First, the silver ions easily rupture a germ's outer membrane when present in the right amounts, causing the germ's vital internal components to be exposed in the bloodstream to our white blood cells. While the white blood cells attack the internal components, the micro-particulate silver continues to destroy these vital internal components by cutting up vital enzymes. The silver ions then easily attack the germ's third vulnerable target: its delicate gene pool. Silver ions have the ability to reach into the nucleus of the germ, where its gene pool is located. Once they combine with the genes, the genes become paralyzed, and the germ cannot replicate itself." Johnathan Wright, Nutrition and Healing, Vol 13, Issue 8, Sept 2006
