I would just like to add that most flu and colds are produced by a virus. The flu shot that people get are manufactured from a virus. Scientists or virus trackers try to figure out what virus will be causing a flu epidemic and make a vaccine out of it. You can go to www.Discovery.com and read all about virus tracking there. The bacterial infections that are caused are secondary to the virus. That at least has been my own personal experience. I suffer from asthma and when I get a cold which is caused by a virus, I usually come down with a secondary infection such as bronchitis or pneumonia. I have had pneumonia 4 times, I have had pleurisy several times, and I always get bronchitis at least 4 times a year! When I get bronchitis, it usually last for months even with antibiotics. This past September I had cold which turned into a very bad case of bronchitis which went into walking pneumonia, and I started taking CS for the first time through a nebulizer. Within one week my infection was gone, and I have not (knock on wood) had a recurrence. I would say CS does in fact affect viruses. Kendra

We have, during the immediately past ten years, conducted over 60 investigative, direct research and protocol development programs......majority of which addressed viral agents. Our results have, almost universally, yielded effective colloidal silver address/protocols to the parent and companion pathogens..... which we were investigating. I have no desire to engage in a dialogue over the mechanisim of address of CS....for controlling the replication sequence of viral agents....but will suggest you employ the use of any reliable search engine in an effort to gain such information. Additionally, a reference to the existing Silver-List archives should yield useful information (at least I believe so). Please do not receive these comments as being adversarial in nature.

Is it effective against viruses too? Not to the best of my knowledge. CS seems to eliminate the side effects of bacteria that are caused by viruses (such as bronchitis or pneumonia) but not the virus itself. I think a guy named Robert O Becker claimed that CS killed 650 different pathogens in his book "The Body Electric". Were they viruses, bacteria or just his best guess? He didn't say. This may have caused a lot of confusion. I would like to submit the idea that people who take CS and don't get colds (myself included) still get the virus, they just don't know it. The CS kills the bacteria caused by the virus. There are no bacteria fighting the white blood cells and putting toxins in the lymphatic system causing a herx syndrome (fever, muscle ache, headache, etc). I have seen lots of testimonials about what CS can do, but I haven't seen any real studies that show that it lowers or eliminates PCR viral loads. Bleach will kill viruses in a petrie dish but what is that worth?
