Can't see why people would invest in setting up such sites unless others did at least buy things from them. Whether that really is to believe in them is another matter. Desperation is a very strong driver of people's actions. If people are ill and current day medicine is failing to help, they try things like this rather than give up and not try anything. One of the older disorders that had largely disappeared was argyria - when skin goes blue/bluish grey due to excess intake of silver. But that has made a return with people using lots of silver as their own "antibiotic". This generator claims to convert a simple rod of silver into nano-particles which have special attributes. Those who get argyria seem to say "that's the price of curing myself". Living with someone who has chronic painful disorders I can see why people fall for these things. That our medical systems leave so many people effectively unhelped and unable to get any help is something I had not realised was so prevalent. If you have a disorder for which there is not an obvious specialist, what does your GP do? The answer is that at best they send you round several non-obvious specialists and try to assist with symptomatic relief. At worst, they dismiss your problems, suggest it is all in your head, put you on anti-depressants, and refuse any referrals. -- Rod |

The placebo effect is real and demonstrable. The pattern I so often see (in the particular things with which I am familiar), is this. People try a new treatment and sometimes seem to get some benefit, say how wonderful they are feeling a bit better. After a while they stop mentioning it. Later still, they are asked how it is going and "admit" that they have given it up either because it was not working, the side-effects were too much, or whatever else. Unfortunately, standard medicine has a number of products which cannot simply be given up and require a very long, slow process of tapering off them in order not to cause big problems. Fortunately, there is a considerable range of things which could be classed as safe (or fairly safe) to try out for oneself and which might have positive effects. Provided they are used with sufficient research, care and thought, I'd include vitamin B12, apple cider vinegar, selenium, dietary exclusions, vitamin D. At the same time, some things often regarded as fairly innocuous can be quite dangerous - iron-based supplements (unless you have demonstrable iron-deficiency), folates (unless you have demonstrable B12 sufficiency). Some of these allow many cycles of trying to DIY fix yourself - with little real danger. (Perhaps the biggest issue is missing out on timely diagnoses and treatments rather than the things themselves.) And, inasmuch as placebo works when DIY, then that effect too. And some of these things DO work. -- Rod |

Yes, well although silver is probably reasonably harmless, and may well have
some benefits, I'd not want to try this device out! Electrolasis? Tesla Pro Silver Generator (Mains Powered) Price includes postage costs. Make your own safe natural antibiotic at home. Buy the Tesla Pro Silver Generator and make almost endless amounts of high quality Silver antibiotic solutions The device runs off the mains, has an auto shut off and produces the ideal small particle the ideal particle size of 10nm at a concentration of 10ppm (Parts Per Million) silver solution. Unlike prescription antibiotics, infections never become resistant to silver and it has been used for centuries to heal wounds and defeat infections * Take control of your health and that of your family * Make half a litre of High Quality Silver in just one hour * Mains Powered (Battery run version also available on request) * Easy to use just switch on and leave it to run * Auto Shut-Off * Long Life Pure 999.8 (99.98% Pure) Silver Rod's * Plug adaptors for use if travelling abroad * Supply friends and relatives with infection busting silver solutions The silver mines of ancient Greece propelled a small nation into a global empire. The ancient Greeks found that by placing a small amount of silver in their water containers purified this essential supply and allowed their military to be fit and strong in environments where the opposition floundered. Even today amphora are discovered on the ocean floor and where a piece of silver was placed the wine still tastes sweet. In battle a fine silver gauze was applied to the wound allowing a once fatal injury to heel rapidly. Ancient Purity's precious metal ionic silver brings this ancient wisdom to the modern world. Colloidal silver could effectively help those with MRSA. Ongoing research may eventually restore Colloidal Silver to its once accepted status as probably the most versatile and effective natural agent against bacteria. It has a hugely important bonus in that bacteria find it almost impossible to develop resistance to it. -- From the Sofa of Brian Gaff Reply address is active "ARW" wrote in message ... http://www.ancientpurity.com/ WTF is the Silver Generator? -- Adam |
