Tell it to the common wart that disappeared from my hand after keeping a slice of fresh GARLIC bandaided over it for 10 days.

Tell it to the fleas that are not on my dog, thanks NOT to canine Advantix, but instead to a pinch of BLACK WALNUT powder sprinkled on his meals.

Tell it to the heat rash between my legs that lasted for weeks, then disappeared within 3 days (of hot sweaty work) with the use of CORN STARCH.

Tell it to the 3rd hot spot on my dog which disappeared after 3 days of spraying colloidal silver. The first two were treated by the vet with antibiotics and cortizone injections and took a week to go away.

Study Says Homeopathic Remedies Don't Work

More like... Study Says if you own stock in Big News Company and Big Pharm, use News Company to denounce anything other than Big Pharm products and stock price will go up.

another bit at MSNBC on the same subject:

Teen Faces Cancer Trial

Apparently... not only are Big News and Big Pharm in cahoots... but Big Brother is demanding that this 16 year old be FORCE FED chemotherapy against his wishes to treat his cancer with an organic diet.

Stay in your air conditioned home... eat petro fertilized food... get well with petro chemical remedies... do as you are told.

Just curious... but for the 10,000 years before there was capitalism and the pharmicutical industry... what type of remedies did people use?

Interesting,.... and probably plausible theory there. Follow the money as they say.

Homeopathic remedies can be effective for many reasons,... one of which can be compared to the
Placebo Effect.
The mind is a very powerful thing. I believe we have the power within ourselves to cure/overcome nearly any disease. I've heard of Tibetan Monks who are able to control their body temperature through meditation. Whatever works I suppose. Why get injected or take dangerous pills with serious side-effects when a sugar pill could be just as effective, and nowhere near as dangerous? Just my opinion. I could be wrong of course.

Uhh...those aren't homeopathic remedies, those are simply alternatives to mainstream medicine.

I should know, I'm a complete and total health nut! Got my own CS success story as a matter of fact, glad to hear yours as well.

Anyhow...

By definition, a quick Google search shows that homeopathy is:

"The practice of the use of active ingredients in minute dosages along with naturally occurring substances in order to provide a healthier balance of internal chemistry. These minute dosages would be viewed in traditional medicine as ineffective."


"Natural form of medicine that uses immeasurably small doses of medicines to stimulate the body's own defense and healing process. Homeopathy focuses on bringing the entire body back into homeostasis, or balance."

"Medicine developed by Samuel Hahnemann towards the end of the 18 th century, based on the understanding that healing comes from within, from the body’s innate self-healing forces. These forces are to be stimulated by certain substances that would actually cause respective disease if given in a high doses; intending to heal an illness with its equal substance."

We should trust the big Pharma Corporations... NOT!!!!

Check out this link

www.fda.gov...

What this article doesn't mention is that GSK had 6 months to correct the problem and they did nothing. Another source stated that the rosiglitisone amounts in some of the Avandamet tablets were less than a therapeutic dose.
After this event GSK sent out letters to the doctors that prescribed Avandamet to the effect that the problem was only with the Paxil CR. I assume they sent similar letters to psychiatrists that prescribed Paxil CR stating the problem was only with the Avandamet.
This is the concept of Corporate Risk management.
If a corporation has a problem, are it's profits more at risk of being reduced if the a) problem exposed,
b) the victims are paid off,
c) the lawsuits are perpetuated in the court system until the victims drop dead

Would you be so kind as to describe the process or provide a "how to link"? We purchase our silver; It's expensive that way!

This is the setup I use, been doing it for years, and I forget why 27VDC is optimum.

Obtain three 9VDC alkaline common household batteries, two thin wire (20ga is fine) jumpers w/alligator clips at each end (available at any Radio Shack or electronics store), distilled water, and two lengths (approx. 6 inches) of 99.999% pure silver wire (available on eBay for cheap).

"Snap" the batteries together in series, so you end up with only one unused + and one unused - contact. The arrrangement will look like a sort of triangle, with two batteries side by side and the third opposite them facing the other way. You'll see what I mean when you assemble it.

Clip one end of each alligator lead to each of the unused battery contacts. Clip the other end of each to the end of a piece of silver wire. From this moment on DO NOT LET THE SILVER WIRES TOUCH!! That will create a short circuit, as both are now live.

Pour some of the water into a drinking glass, jar, etc. Place the silver wires on the opposite edges of the vessel, bending them gently as needed to make them hook onto the edge. The alligator clips should be on the ends of the wires that hang on the edge of the vessel. The other ends of the silver wires are immersed in the water.

There you have it. I have never tested mine, but I'm told that making a 4oz water solution in this manner and allowing the "silver generator" to run for 40 minutes will produce a 10 to 15ppm solution.

Total expense: about $20. Don't throw your money at Internet hocksters offering the same thing for much more money.

Here's a good link...
www.cyonic-nemeton.com...

You'll find differing info depending on where you look. The most common thoughts suggest using a smaller voltage over a longer time period. That makes the the silver (particles? ions? molecules?) smaller and smaller is better.
