this is from a company that manufactures silver, and even they say that it kills bacteria indiscriminately. Also also look at the anecdotal info on curezone.


Consumption of Colloidal Silver

Many mix Colloidal Silver in the drinking water. The silver is not digested before being absorbed in the body. The rate of absorption can be increased by holding the water in the mouth for a few seconds. The size of silver particles makes it easy to pass through the lining of digestive tract and directly get absorbed into the bloodstream. The silver particles reach all parts of the body through the blood and kill the pathogens (bacteria and virus) that come in contact with the silver particles.

"On the downside, these silver particles can destroy the beneficial bacteria in our digestive tract. It is therefore recommended to take live culture yogurt after two hours of Colloidal Silver consumption to restore the amount of bacteria in the intestines. There are however claims that beneficial bacteria are not affected by colloidal silver, which is not true. Silver can't differentiate between beneficial bacteria and pathogens. Silver acts on all unicellular organisms.

The unabsorbed silver particles are eliminated from the body along with digestive wastes.

Intake of colloidal silver kills the infectious germs and they are expelled through the excretory organs like the kidneys. It is therefore beneficial to increase the intake of water to flush out the residue of bacteria and virus from the body.

It's probably one of those things like ACV - some people do great on it but some can't tolerate it. If I take ACV daily I will get very spaced out - not a good thing. It may depend on which strains of bacteria someone has a lot of, plus mold allergies.

I'm very busy and my intention by posting here was to gather some information from this forum if possible. I also decided to let people know how I cured my condition by mentioning the variables they should become aquainted with, for which I believe I have achieved and it is now upto those who are embarking upon this journey to search for themselves regarding the relavant topics. I'm merely plugging in my two cents worth and letting people know that I'm cured (and how I acheived it) and therefore they can be cured to. I walked through hell for years and recovered, many times I felt suicidal, and during them times I never seen anybody anywhere on the internet say they had recovered, so my message is simple for those who have had similar thoughts to that I had, it is beatable.

The observers can generate their own conclusion from reading the thread, my story is that Colloidal Silver was a godsend, others disagree, like yourself. My best advice therefore is as follows, if you are scared of the thought of taking Colloidal Silver , dont use it, if your condition deteriates to such a point that your quality of life is negligible, then try high dose CS to nuke the candida, it worked for me after trying everything on the market (so my candida must have been fairly resistant by then as I hit it with everything).

Regarding the grains, for a time all I did was grow the grains to the size of a large marble in milk. Yes it is perfectly fine to consume the grains, it is equivalent to taking in trillions of bacteria in one go. There are also many other benefits from consuming the grains such as anti-carcinogenic effects of the kefiran.
I dont chew them so as not to damage them, just swallow as they go down easy.

The best advice I have is to perform colon flushes, heal the intestinal wall, take high dose Colloidal Silver for a week or two, consume plenty anti-oxidents, vit e, goji/acai berries, selenium etc, have a load of kefir grains cultured and ready to consume, stop the colloidal silver, then consume the live cultures themselves, as many as you have managed to grow (best wait till you have a lot of them). I now swallow kefir cultures several time every week and have done for months after applying that simple protocol (although the intestine took a while to sort out), and I'm doing well.

Thats my message, goodluck everybody.

Peace.
