Re: What to fix first, leaky gut or candida?
I disagree. Steve Barwick is as full of BS as most of the other CS marketers. He is just very good at it. If you examine the tests that Grizz himself posted on MesoSilver for me it shows that MesoSilver and hence all true
Colloidal Silver ie non ionic silver is far more effective inside the body. I do not care about metalloproteins because I do not trust that is an effective solution. Ionic silver contains small amounts of particulate silver and it is largely only that which is effective inside the body and for me that explains Ionic silver considerably lower effectiveness.
I have just purchased some Ionic silver but I intend reducing it before I consume it to convert it to particulate silver. I doubt that it will be quite as effective as MesoSilver due to larger particulate size but it should be considerably better than IS.
If you look through the Colloidal Support forum Grizz posted a link to a research article which showed the effectiveness of many different forms of CS. Top of the list by a very big margin was MesoSilver. For me that disproves everything that Steve Barwick claims. More marketing BS IMO.
MesoSilver is not available in the UK, I would have to import it and the already high cost would be much higher after 20% sales tax on the product price and delivery. That is why I have chosen what I have. There is true
Colloidal Silver available in the UK but it is only reduced Ionic Silver which uses maltodextrin as the reducing agent. They claim 80% particulate silver as a result of that conversion. I would of purchased some but Amazon have a 3 week wait on it so I decided to DIY with another Ionic Silver brand which is selling a 2 for 1 offer. Clear Corn syrup is meant to be the best reducing agent but I cannot find anything without other things added such as vanilla. I do have dextrose but that is meant to be less effective. I will probably get some maltodextrin unless I can find a better corn syrup.
If you look on the SilverTron forum there are instructions on reducing IS using Kyro Syup, Maltodextrin and glucose. It does not take very much and heat to cause the reaction. They use a microwave but I would not use a microwave as the energy is likely to affect the metal particles. I intend using a borosilicate glass jug covered with a plate and heat it in an oven.

BTW the pH of the CS is important to the reaction, the one I have ordered and expect on Saturday ie later today, has a pH of 8.0. On that forum they do recommend sodium carbonate to increase the pH. I have sodium bicarbonate which can be altered to sodium carbonate fairly easily. That might not be necessary, I will experiment and see how it turns out.
Ensure that you fill your stomach with CS. If necessary add some distilled water before drinking. Do not take tiny amounts because it will not be effective!
I might hit it with Bacillus Subtilis and Interfase plus prior to taking CS. I might also take some additional EDTA along with with the Interfase plus to help break up the biofilm and mop up the metals that make up the biofilm. I will have to check that EDTA cannot absorb silver beforehand before deciding on that. If it does react with silver then I will miss all of those and just use CS.
I believe that Candida occupies the same biofilm in the stomach as a bacteria and it is the bacteria that needs to be destroyed to rid yourself of candida. The stomach is like the drawbridge to the body and if that is compromised everything breaks down, methylation, further infections and changes to colon flora. If the stomach is infected with candida then candida can continually seed the digestive system with candida spores. That I believe is why most people never beat candida despite spending considerable effort. Focusing on candida they miss the real cause. Candida can occupy a biofilm with gram negative bacteria.
I hope that proves useful to you. Best of luck.
