The Silver Institute is phenominal. The truth is this: with silver applications, the US is behind the times, not ahead of them.
This is going to change, despite the United States. It has been projected taken from the Silver Institute as well ) that by the year 2006, silver consumption for it's anti-microbal properties will have increased by 600%. The US is expected to slowly "get with the program". ----- Original Message ----- From: "JudytheK" <[email protected]> To: "Silver List" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, October 21, 2001 11:02 AM Subject: CS>Information from the Silver Institute > http://silverinstitute.org > > In a world concerned with virus and disease, silver is increasingly tapped > for its bactericidal properties and used to treat a range of conditions > including severe burns. > Since 1884 when the German obstetrician F.
