Hello Brooks, Was your brothers heart valve stainless or his original heart tissue? Since the original subject was SS valves and the plating of Ag on them.

We have determined that CS will, in fact, plate out in similar circumstances as stated in this situation. If CS plating had been used in past installations of such devices, the mortality rate from opportunistic pathogenic agents, probably, would have been much lower. My only brother (78 yro overweight diabetic) nicked himself with a fish-hook about 3 months ago. Within 15 days he experienced a severe cardiac episode....which the alleopathic attendants surmised to be a stroke. However, it took them 5 days to determine there was an infected heart valve causing the increasing insufficiency (this after a precipitous decline in his condition). Eight weeks later plus $245,000 in expense..... he was taken home.....unable to rise or stand. His complete recovery is problematical. This gentleman has placed his faith and destiny---unflinchingly---in the hands of the alleopathic community. Needless to say, one can imagine how stressful this has been on me......when we have documented evidence (reams of it) exhibiting the efficacy of ancillary adjunctive protocols which are both non-invasive and non-toxic------and NON-REACTIVE with the alleopathic agents involved......which could have served to mediate quite effectively----in his case. Sam (my brother) is a dedicated searcher for the "Silver Bullet"......but only if cast by the Alleopathic Gods. This case serves to increase my sadness relative to the general circumstance of "systemic cultural conditioning" aimed a maintaining an, almost, religious zeal among the target population. Do forgive the intensity of this diatribe.......it is just a reflection of my heart-sickness relative to the entire circumstance. Sincerely, Brooks.

This should make the valve incapable to support the growth of any pathogens, not a bad thing. I cannot think of any problems it would cause, but of course cannot support that view. Marshall Stephen Summers wrote: Dear members We have had an enquiry about someone's mother who is 84 yrs old and has a stainless steel valve in her heart. Does anyone know whether CS would react with this device - bearing in mind that silver ions are transported by metalloproteins to the sites where they are needed. Please also note that we produce a very high quality CS i.e. crystal clear with no silver oxide or silver chloride. Thanks in advance. Steve
