Date: 10/8/00 2:31:23 AM EST From: [email protected] (BROOKS BRADLEY) Reply-to: [email protected] To: [email protected] (elsauz) CC: [email protected] Dear Mr. Amaya, In our veterinary evaluations, we have obtained effective controls/responses (for prophylactic applications) among, cattle, horses, pigs, sheep, dogs, cats....and other small pets, with concentrations as low as one (1) part per 20,000,000. Among the larger ungulates, effective responses were obtained at dilution levels of one part in 100,000,000. Be advised these are not levels found to be satisfactory for acute conditions.....but have demonstrated to be quite effective for general prevention. However, some measureable degree of response has been gained even among certain test individuals suffering from serious pathogenic insults. Sincerely, Brooks Bradley. >>
Brooks: I am interested to get your comments on using CS prophylactically for humans. Until recently, I thought it a good strategy to use CS that way, but recent discussion and experience have demonstrated to me that it is unnecessary, and perhaps, even unwise to follow such a protocol. As I said more than once on this forum, using CS prophylactically may overly "protect" our immune system from exposure to pathogens so that we lose opportunities to develop as large a spectrum of natural immunity as we might have otherwise. Secondly, Ivan Anderson argues that the amount of time free colloidal silver stays active in our system is so short that there is little chance that is will be available *just when* an infection is about to overwhelm our immune system. Third, by taking silver every day we are "training" our system's metal scavengers to be present in much higher that normal concentrations. In effect, these scavengers become so efficient in removing CS from our body that we lose much of the inherent benefits of CS because its residence time becomes so short. For example, when an infection hits, it has been my experience that CS seems to work better for first time users compared to habitual users. If these points are valid, why not use CS only when you sense you're coming down with an infection. The other day, I felt the beginning of a cold and sore throat. I sprayed CS down my throat, and tried to hold it there as long as possible (this exercise takes practice). I continued this procedure, and within 15 minutes these symptoms had all but disappeared. When they reappeared, I repeated the treatment until they disappeared again. A day later, I started to have a runny nose, so I sprayed CS up my nose until these symptoms disappeared as well. Bottom line: I wound up having a fraction of the discomfort compared to that experienced by a typical cold sufferer, but, I believe I was still able to train my immune system to recognise this (viral?) infection in the future .
