Regarding coliadial silver
My naturalpathic Dr put me on it, so he must believe there is some merit. Mayo clinic doctors have sent him patients they haven't been able to help.
I have read up on its use quite a bit on and know it was used extensively before antibiotics and they still use it for burn patients There won't be extensive testing on it unless big pharma figures out how to make it into a drug for profit.
I don't think it alone has helped me or if it helped me at all. I always took a pretty small amount. I do know there was a problem with silver salts and all acumillating and causing blueish color.
But saying all that I wouldn't be comfortable nebulizing at all until research was done on it. There could be contaminates in the solution or something. I'm pretty careful about what I inhale avoid dust, scents smoke. I know that when bacteria comes in contract with silver from what I have read can't exist and it doesn't become resistant to colidal silver.
But I have an open mind and will keep researching.
Thanks for your concern!
Shari

Yes please send this to him. Let us know what he says

@windwalker ...Terri..that is very interesting. And also interesting your thought about copper pipes. I would be interested in his response. Also would love to see what he would suggest as a means of transport of the copper into the lung to kill MAC. I see that there is colloidal copper...I never knew this. Will check out the program. Thanks.

@flib...I am still digging to find info on nebulizing silver...One thing I came across was to not mix saline with colloidal silver. Salt will combine with some of the silver ions to make silver chloride, which is less effective against bacteria (purportedly hundreds of times less effective than ionic silver), and is mildly toxic. Maybe a few drops in distilled water might be a thought? There is so much conflicting info on alternative meds...but might be worth checking this out.
