b. The Silver Problem
Colloidal
and Ionic silver are in a 3 dimensional physical form and take up
space. Even if so small they did not harmfully build up in the body,
there is a second problem.
One of the worlds leading
physicists, considered to be the father of electro-medicine today,
Robert C. Beck, tested these three forms of silver for penetrability.
He found that all forms of colloidal and Ionic silver had a 5% to 6%
effectiveness for penetrating certain membranes. When he tested
(Molecula Silver) he was astonished to see 100% penetration!
Another major distinction between (Molecula Silver) and all others is
that due to its energetic and etheric nature, it doesn't break down.
Direct sunlight does not change its composition even after years of
exposure.
Molecula Silver is totally pristine & completely clear even when a
laser is shot through the liquid.It is the ultimate silver product!
A critical indicator of a silver's quality is it's color and color is based on particle size.
The very best colloidal silver is golden yellow. As the size of the
particle increases, the color of the suspension proceeds from yellow to
brown to red to grey to black. The size of the particles increase as
they lose their charge and usefulness. Instead of remaining a single
particle they begin to clump into groups of seven.
You
shouldn't have to see flakes or large silver particles in it or have to
shake it, refrigerate it, keep it out of the sun or place it into dark
colored bottles to protect it or hide its color.
However
the ultimate, proper, healthy silver is stable and doesn't turn yellow
or dark over time or have to be protected from light as it remains
crystal clear in glass or plastic with or without a lid. And the sun
has no effect on its nature or quality.
One final note:
Another possible danger in using some colloidal size silver is that the
cells continue to burn energy in an effort to draw the silver particle
into the cell. Even though the silver may be too large and cannot enter
the cell, the cell may continue to use all of its vital energy until it
expires. Cell death!
c. Molecula Silver is high in nitrates, why?
Health Stream Literature summary - Issue 15 September 1999 Dietary nitrate in man: friend or foe?
McKnight GM, Duncan CW, Leifert C, Golden MH. Br J Nutrit. (1999) 81(5) p349 -358.
A number of adverse human health effects have been attributed to
nitrate, including infantile methemoglobinaemia, carcinogenesis and
possibly teratogenesis. Government and public concern has led to
increasingly strict regulations over nitrate concentrations in food and
water, which may soon threaten crop production in some areas of
northern Europe.
However, recent studies have suggested that nitrate may in fact have a
beneficial effect on the physiology of the intestinal tract and have a
protective effect against food and waterborne pathogens. Nitrate may
also be protective against ischaemic heart disease, and the evidence
for supposed harmful effects has not been substantiated by recent
epidemiological studies.
Understanding the metabolism of dietary nitrate is important when
evaluating its harmful or beneficial effects. Ingested nitrate is
absorbed into the bloodstream from the stomach and small intestine,
then concentrated by the salivary glands and secreted in saliva at 10
times the plasma concentration. About 25% of dietary nitrate is
recirculated in this way. Specialised bacteria on the tongue rapidly
reduce nitrate to nitrite, which is then swallowed and reduced to
nitric oxide and other oxides of nitrogen by the stomach acid. The
existence of an active recycling system for nitrate suggests that some
overall evolutionary benefit must be conferred by this mechanism.
Concerns over the role of nitrate in drinking water in
methemoglobinaemia have been reduced by recent findings that the effect
is associated with the presence nitrate reducing bacteria which produce
nitrite. It also appears that young infants do not carry the oral
bacteria necessary for conversion of nitrate to nitrite, although it is
not known at what age the plasma/saliva recirculation of nitrate
begins.
Cancer risks from nitrate have been postulated on the basis that
carginogenic nitrosamines may be formed in the stomach, however
epidemiological studies have given inconsistent results. On the other
hand, it is well established that intake of high amounts of salads and
vegetables (which are rich in nitrates) is associated with an overall
reduction in cancer risks. Vegetarian people have lower mortality from
stomach cancer than omnivores, but have an average nitrate intake three
times higher. Recent research has also shown that physiological
conditions in the stomach and digestive tract are unlikely to permit
nitrosamine formation at dietary nitrate levels.
Animal studies have suggested teratogenic effects with high doses of
nitrite, but not nitrate. Human epidemiological studies have given
conflicting results on correlations between rates of congenital defects
and nitrate in drinking water, and there has been one report of a
decrease in spontaneous abortion rate associated with nitrate. While
studies in this area are scanty, they do not support an association of
nitrate with teratogenesis.
Possible
mechanisms for favorable effects of dietary nitrate are discussed.
Consumption of a meal high in nitrate produces nitrite which in
combination with stomach acid, has an antimicrobial affect on many
gastrointestinal pathogens such as Salmonella. Preliminary evidence of
the role of nitrates in cardiovascular protection has been suggested by
a small study showing a reduction in platelet aggregation, and the
authors suggest this may partially explain the benefits of high
vegetable intake. When a high-nitrate diet is eaten, nitrate may also
have a gastroprotective effect by causing enhanced emptying and rapid
recovery of gastric acidity and modulating of microcirculation.
The authors propose that the salivary recirculation of dietary nitrate
may be an important non-immunological host defense mechanism, and that
nitrate may also provide substantial benefits for intestinal and
cardiovascular function. Recognition of these benefits may result in
new modes of treatment for illness of the mouth, stomach, intestine and
cardiovascular system in both human medicine and animal husbandry.
Comment: The
two above articles draw together many strands of evidence and argue
that the labeling of nitrate as a "harmful contaminant" of drinking
water is unwarranted. The evidence presented appears to remove many of
the health concerns previously held about nitrate. In fact, if McKnight
et al. are correct in their conclusions, nitrate may well acquire a
place in future as an important therapeutic agent.
A Final Note:
One
patient who had sustained three crushed fingers in an accident grew new
tissue rapidly. Within 2-1/2 months, skin coverage was complete and
there was normal full sensation, good blood supply and all joints had a
normal range of motion. If left untreated, the 30-year old
electrician's fingers would have fallen off after turning black from
gangrene, and he would have been left with a totally useless hand.
Ironically, his orthopedic surgeon recommended amputation of all three
fingers, but the patient requested silver-ion therapy which proved
successful. The mechanism by which silver ions help rebuild tissue
has been studied for more than a decade by Dr. Robert Becker of Becker
Biomagnetics in New York. Dr. Becker initially reported his findings at
the First International Conference on Silver and Gold in Medicine,
co-sponsored by The Silver Institute in 1987. In the decade since, this
technique has been used in clinical settings where hundreds of patients
with various wounds have recovered. In addition, a laboratory study
conducted by the U.S. Army Institute for Surgical Research in Houston,
Texas, showed that laboratory animals with burn wounds treated under
controlled conditions experienced shortened time for reconstruction
with silver-nylon dressings. Recovery of skin function was faster when
electric current was applied compared to no application of electric
current.
After several hundred cases, Dr. Becker believes that the technique
works in three stages. The first stage is the chemical combination of
highly active free silver ions with all bacteria or fungi present in
the wound which are inactivated within 20 to 30 minutes. The second
stage occurs over the next few days. Silver acts on fibroblast cells to
cause them to revert to their embryonic state, becoming stem cells.
These cells are universal building blocks whose role is to reconstruct
new tissue. In the final stage, silver ions form a complex with the
living cells in the wound area to produce immediately convertible stem
cells. The end result of this conversion is that the stem cells supply
all the building blocks necessary to completely restore all anatomical
structures. No other known treatment provides sufficient numbers of the
embryonic or stem cells required for true regeneration of damaged or
destroyed tissues in humans and animals. The success indicates that
there is the potential not only for the healing of near-surface wounds,
but for regenerative repair of internal organs such as the heart,
liver, brain and the spinal cord.
