Has anyone here used silver? Would like to treat with silver before starting HBOT again and am trying to determine how much silver and for how long to use it for. I have been giving it to my 43 pound son, 1 tsp twice a day, for a couple of months now and his WBC has come back up which I am guessing(and hoping) means that the silver is helping to combat the bacterial load. The HBOT clinic staff like to use silver to treat for bacteria and Lyme related issues before and during HBOT but don't have a guidance range for a child so any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Dear georgiasand 32,

We began using Colloidal Silver in the early 1990s with our 3 year old daughter. She and many in our family have used it every since. Our daughter, who was on the Autism Spectrum at that time, was always sick -- ear infections and heavy mucus which clogged her airways. A friend of my mom's told her about Colloidal Silver and the fact she was acquainted with it from her days as an RN working in a hospital during the 1930s. (This was before antibiotics were introduced.) The lady told my mom that Colloidal Silver was available in our local health food store. And it was a better quality that what was available when she worked in the hospital. So, my mom bought some and gave it to me along with a cassette tape that explained how to use it.

Colloidal Silver was the first alternative product we tried with our daughter. She probably was about 35 lbs then. Here is what we did:

First thing in the morning she received 1/4 tsp on an empty stomach. I waited 15 min before she ate food. At mid-day she received another 1/4 tsp before eating lunch. Again before supper the same procedure was followed. If I forgot, then I gave her CS before she went down for the night. If she awoke in the night unable to breath because the the heavy mucus, she was given 1/4 tsp CS and returned to bed as soon as the CS took affect. That was usually in 5 to 10 min.

As our daughter grew older, she was instructed about holding CS in her mouth, swishing and gargling it as long as she could. That was about 15 seconds at first and built up to about 30 seconds. Colloidial Silver is absorbed directly into the body from the lining of the mouth, throat and esophogus. Eventually, I did not worry about giving it to her on an empty stomach. By having her swish with water any food she had in her mouth, then hold the CS in her mouth as long as possible, it seemed to have as good or similar effect a when she took it on an empty stomach.

The original Colloidal Silver we used was 10 ppm. But now we use 30 ppm. The brand we like the best is Source Natural Wellness. It is available at our local health food store. From time to time there are specials were it is available for 4 oz at the usual price of 2 oz. See: www.sourcenaturals.com

Additionally, I noted that you have asked about Pycnogenol in previous posting. We have used it as well and still do. I would be glad to share info.
