Here's some original research by Ol' Bob, a colloidal silver researcher and previous member of this list, now deceased. From his book.
Dan The History of Colloidal Silver Silver has been used throughout history by the aristocracy for plates and drinking vessels, and its use has been a source of protection from the ravages that affect the mass of humanity. Our pioneers would add a silver dollar to the milk buckets to prolong the useful life. If you so choose you can add a tablespoon of your silver product to a gallon of milk and it will not spoil for weeks. Prior to the discovery of penicillin there were over ninety US letters patents of silver compounds for medicinal purposes. It was during 1917 that Dr. Henry Crooke conducted 2,000 tests proving that silver solutions would kill almost all pathogens. Since ionic silver solutions could not be patented, the Food and Drug Administration was moved by the pharmaceutical companies not to approve its use by the American Medical Association. For those who want an in-depth look at the history of the use of silver for human well being I suggest that you visit the Google.com web site and enter "colloidal silver." Another worthwhile web site is at www.silverinstitute.org in Washington D. C. You will enjoy the www.silverlon.com web site as their product has been approved by the FDA and the AMA. If the web site is selling a product be careful what you believe about their product, as everyone thinks theirs is the best. Circa 1953 there was an article in the Reader's Digest on the role that silver played in the building of the Burma road during world War II. Shortly after construction began everything stopped due to dysentery and diarrhea from the water supply. An English doctor gathered up a number of D batteries and silver coins, which he took to India. The coins were converted into wires about a meter long and one was soldered on each end of the D battery. The silver wires were placed in the Lister bags water supply with the batteries on the outside. In just a few days the medical problem disappeared and the road was completed. At that time I was living in La Ceiba, Honduras, and our water supply was from unfiltered, unprocessed mountain runoff water, and I was curious about the silver process. At my request the director of the research laboratory had his personnel prepare twelve petri dishes for bacterial culture growth. A water sample was divided into three parts. One part was used to make a 1, 10, 100, and 1000 dilution sample for the untreated water, a second set was made for water that was stirred with a silver wire for two minutes, and the third set was made using water that had been stirred with two silver wires that were soldered to the ends of a D battery. What follows are my personal experiences while investigating the making of a silver product to be used for human consumption. The twelve samples were incubated for forty-eight hours so that any bacteria present would grow. At the end of the incubation period the samples were viewed with results as listed on the table. Untreated Water: 1/1 Solid cover of bacterial growth. 2/10 to 3/100 had successfully reduced growth. 4/1000 had five colonies of bacteria. Stirred Water: 1/1 had a few colonies. 1/10 had less than sample 1. 1/100 and 1/1000 were free of bacterial growth. Electrolyzed Water: All four of the culture dishes were bacterially free. _______________________________________________ On Tue, Dec 15, 2009 at 8:20 PM, Sunwaterclear - Sunny <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > My husband, who is into trying out all kinds of alternatives, just asked > me... does this stuff work ?
