Guest guest Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Hi Bob, I have to apologize for my nomenclature. By, " clumps, " I mean clumps of silver over 4-6 atoms. Such a " clump " doesn't penetrate well. I started making CS with my home-made Beck Zapper. The batches measured out at 7-9 ppm before they turned too yellow. I got OK results with this product. I switched to 240V AC, " stirred " with a fish bubbler, and found that I could get over 160 ppm with no yellowing. I concluded that the yellowing must be a certain amount of oxidizing, but I don't know for sure. If it is the case, then the yellow part probably does no good. The problem was that it didn't work well over a certain amount of PPM. I would add water to bring the level back to 10-12 ppm, but the results were about what low voltage DC has. If the ppm is kept to 10-12 ppm in making the CS, then even 220V AC gives spectacular results. (I think that it isn't very safe to make that way. A person wouldn't want to finger-test for current.) As long as I kept the ppm down, I got wonderful results. Dick > > I've b een using commercial 500ppm CS, a yellow liquid, for the last > 10-12 years.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Hello Dick & Bob, I have some questions for the Both of you. I ask because I'm doing research on Product development and Writing a Book. One Goal I have is to provide a Non_Profit website for Providing People a Low cost place to acquire Electro-Medical Devices and the Info to help cause "Spontaneous Remission" for those that truly care to help themselves. I also have (Off Topic) on my Bench & Desk Proto-Types of "Hydroxy Generator" (A device that makes Hydrogen & Oxygen from h2o on demand). This is for Alternative energy Production. Small example: A Hydroxy generator provides fuel to run a Gas powered 7-15 Kilowatt Generator to power your home and possible provide power back to the Grid. Hundreds done already world wide. I have 2 large enemys so far, Big Pharm & Big Oil. So I have 1,000s of pages of research and apparently need more so I ask for your help. Dick, What type of water do you use? You say "Over a certain PPM it did not work very well" Please elaborate on this? Meaning you got sick or had contracted something? How do you define Wonderful results? Please provide as much incite as you can. Thanks! Bob, 500ppm CS! I'm new to this so I need more info. Too much Silver accumulation under the skin causes Argyria. Old English referred to this as "Blue Bloods". How much do you take? 10-12 years of taking this Dose Qualifies you as an expert to me. So have you had any illnesses since the start? Have you had a Complex Blood test? How it's made maybe simple. I do plan on testing many ways to make it. I'm sure 100's before me have done this but not "Open Sourced" their results.

It tested at less that 1 ppm for anything suspended > You say " Over a certain PPM it did not work very well " Please elaborate Well, it isn't that it didn't work. It did! If I had an infected sore, or cold, it would work. When I switched to 240V AC, the product worked noticeably faster, and more reliably. When I tried diluting batches that " got away " from me and went up into 40, 50, 120, etc. ppm, they didn't work even as well as the product from 27V DC. But they did work. The product from 2200V AC works faster and even more reliably. > on this? Meaning you got sick or had contracted something? Right! Colds, sores, burns, etc. > How do you define Wonderful results? No product is 100% I haven't kept track of how well it works by %. A guess is that 240V AC is 50% better than 27V DC and 2200V AC is another 30% better than the 240V AC product. I hope that this helps. I'm also interested in the H2 and O2 generator. I've read that they call it, " Browns gas. " Normal electrolysis has a proportion of 4/1. It needs an input of energy 4 times as great as the energy that one gets out of it. There was a Keely-net report that showed how to make a device that would run a car on water. I don't know anybody that tried it though. There was a guy named Stan Meyer that supposedly ran a dune buggy on water. Dick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It > really is amazing stuff. yes, but keep in mind that in vitro, some ABX types are also very effective while they don't work at all in vivo (e.g. erythromycin action against Borrelia). Also, if CS kills all bacteria I guarantee you that there will be nasty side effects. A lot of our organs (e.g. gut, skin) depend on countless types of bacteria. Kill them all and you kill yourself. In that respect herbs (like the Buhner herbs) are a better approach IMHO. I never said that CS is a 'hoax' as someone else here suggests. I agree that CS has proven antibacterial properties; if used correctly it can help to fight bacterial infections. But I haven't seen any proof that it will work against Borrelia in tissues (i.e. in late stage disease). I'm not comfortable with the fact that, despite lots of research, nobody really knows how CS works. Why would it be specific against (bad?) bacteria, and not hurt other free living cells like our blood cells? Most simple compounds, heavy metals, Chlorine dioxide etc. have similar action against almost everything that lives. > Viruses of course can be a different story.

Guest guest Posted November 17, 2010 Report Share Posted November 17, 2010 But don't the Buhner herbs discriminate between bad and good bacteria? Or is that incorrect. If so, how does that work? Personally I'm comfortable trying something that hasn't been proven or how it works is unknown, if I'm inspired to do so. I haven't tried CS yet, but I may in the future.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2010 Report Share Posted November 18, 2010 I do agree with a lot of this. Its one reason my wife, as well as numerous others, use the rife/cs protocol and not just CS alone. Lyme has the innate ability to hide from blood borne antibiotics as we well know. Also it is believed that ionic CS, is pretty much neutralized before it reaches the lower GI track. But as a precaution my wife will consume probitics hours after the CS dosage. Again nothing had been tested in the lab so its unclear why its working for them. The theory is the rife causes the bacteria to some how come out of hiding and be open to attack from the CS. But it could be something else entirely different too. The real shame is that due to profit motives there isn't much call for the expensive research to be done that would help explain things about CS. So many expensive antibiotics might suddenly become unsellable. The same goes for herbal protocols too. Little lab research is really being done on them. I enjoy a good polite discussion. There is so much I just don't know. I am always willing to learn new things and change my own views on what is so and what is not. www.lyme-resource.com You can lead a person to a fact, but you can't make them think! - > [ ] CS > > > > > > > > From my readings I find its interesting that in vitro experiments > > (i.e. in > > labs) CS has been shown to be 100% effective against all > bacteria's it > > was used against.

I accept that rife causes 'herx' reactions for some people, so something is going on. But we don't even know what a 'herx' really is, medically. I'm pretty sure the average Lyme herx is NOT like the official definition of a herx, with fevers etc. caused by high toxin load in the blood, as a result of sudden bacterial die-off. One of the problems with rife is that it is ill-defined, which makes testing almost impossible. If you test with a specific device (say a Doug Coil) and specific frequencies and find no effect, believers will claim you used the wrong device or the wrong frequencies, cycles, waveform, etc.. And where these frequencies, durations, cycles etc. come from is really ... magic. You cannot test a 'theory' if it doesn't have solid fundamentals that allow predictions that can be verified or falsified. > The real shame is that due to profit motives there isn't much call for the > expensive research to be done that would help explain things about CS. So > many expensive antibiotics might suddenly become unsellable. The same goes > for herbal protocols too. Little lab research is really being done on them. I don't think it is just that. There is a lot of scientific research lately into medical effects of 'nano silver'. Maybe there is more money there nowadays than in antibiotics. most ABX are cheap, patents are no longer valid so everyone can make them. There are a few expensive products but most Pharma companies don't make money from ABX. I think herbal protocols in general have the same problem as rife that they can be ill-defined. There can be many components, and the content can vary strongly depending on where the herbs come from, when they were harvested etc. This is also a valid issue with the FDA trying to 'regulate' this market (although I would prefer if they leave it alone, and just require some general disclaimer on the bottle). There is significant research into specific herbs. Buhners book clearly shows this and a simple search on PubMed will find over a thousand hits for some herbs, despite the fact that there is relatively little money to be made on them. I think biochemical / medical research will increase with the latest discoveries regarding herbs and quorum sensing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 > > knot, > > have you ever used rife? no, but I know a few people who did. That sealed the case for me You can't try all possible lyme treatments, so it is not on my list. P.S.: for the Rife believers, I came across an article that COULD have something to do with why/how Rife is working (if it is at all). It's a complicated and scientifically controversial subject, so just a snippet for those with some background: http://www.springerlink.com/content/0557v31188m3766x/ A novel property of DNA is described: the capacity of some bacterial DNA sequences to induce electromagnetic waves at high aqueous dilutions. It appears to be a resonance phenomenon triggered by the ambient electromagnetic background of very low frequency waves. The genomic DNA of most pathogenic bacteria contains sequences which are able to generate such signals. This opens the way to the development of highly sensitive detection system for chronic bacterial infections in human and animal diseases. The same researcher, Montaigner (Nobel Prize medicine 2008; people who follow Lyme research may know him from the discussions about AIDS/syphilis), recently also made claims about detecting something akin to 'DNA quantum teleportation'. Its all very controversial, but Montaigner is a scientist to be reckoned with. If he is right, most of the (bio)chemistry of the last hundred years or so would have to be reevaluated.
