A Modem Healing Miracle

We continually pick up !he newspaper or IWD on the news and hear about tbe latest research on producing "stem cells". It may therefore come as quite a surprise to many to find that some of the leading medical researchers have proven that the highest-quality stem cells tan be easily produced, both artificially and where and when needed. Not only wI, but it has been proven that !.he human body and the animal body can predict exactly the number of stem cells needed to heal a wound. Under the right conditions. the body can produce exactly that number. use them all and have no extra left overl Amazing! Still more surprising is that you can -easily do the same thing yourself at bome.

It So wbat is the big posh for stem cells all about? The real search is for a stem cell production process that can be patented and thereby controlled and sold for a huge amount of .money by the drug companies. If these companies can patent the process of producing these stem cells and then store, ship and inject tbero according to complex procedures and make big money in the process, and if the knowledge of how to produce them can be kepi out of the hands of the common people, they can hold the fear of life or deatb over the sick: and injured and dole the cells out at their price. They are dJe wizards holding the

wands of healing. .

NormalJy a cell can only reproduce as the kind of cell it is. A skin cell can only reproduce itself as another skin cell. but only of the skin layer thaI it is from. A bean cell can only reproduce a heart cell, A stem cell is a cell that luis no tissue signature. II can become a skin cell. a heart cell, a lung cell, a bone cell, etc. It can become anything.

To understand tbe subject better, you need 10 know the differen.ce between stem cells, - undifferentiated cells and dedifferentiated cells. Stem cells have not become any particular type of cells. They usually come from an embryo, a foetus or an umbilical cord. Undifferentiated cell come from bone marrow, primarily from tbe femur. Dedifferentiated cells are cells that have been differentiated as red blood cells, skin cells. muscle cells, etc., but have changed into uniliffetentialed cells. Now they can become any type of cells needed. The only differc:ucc with the three types is their b_j tory. They are all the sam as stem cells and have !he DNA of the donor. For tbc sake of simplicity, they will all be called "stem cells" herein. except where the difference is important to understanding the subject

Some pareats have produced an embryo for the sole purpose of providing stem cells for a member of the family. Laboratories routinely produce embryos for making stem cells. The use of embryos and foetuses to source stem cells has become 3. hotly debated issue. The embryo may be killed in order to obtain the stem cells, which then can be used in other humans if the DNA is close enough match.

The DNA is a big problem in thaI it is foreign 10 the stem cells recipient. A stem ceU is Ijke a donated organ: the immune system tends to rejeGt it, therefore the immune system must usually be suppressed in order to accept it. And like a donated organ, lbe tem cell reproduces with its still-foreign DNA and the recipient's immune system will probably have to be suppres ed indefinitely. .

A strong immunc system is certainly one of our most valuable assets. One or our highest goals bealthwise is to build bwng immune system. Are we then to rrMie our immune ysrern ~ r the truly fantasric healing quality of tem cells and become permanently deptodent on medication as a replacement for our immune system?

Dr Becker showed that in the presence of sufficient silver ions, the body would produce all the stem cells it needed.

Without the silver, it could not do so.

all the time, So. in some hospiml , doctors are experimeanng with separaling these cells out of their patients' blood and making an embryo from the nucleus of each cell for implantation or freezing the cells and saving tbem for planned futuro use. It' very Oltpcnsive process. However, assuming these cells are not damaged during freezing, they are of the patieots' own DNA and the process has produced some impressive results, These ~tem cells can then be injtCred where needed. But this process can be expensive and time oon uming-and the patients may DOl bave mucb time left.

Recently, scientists in WicoDsin and Japan have reported succcs in taking orne cell from a patient and injecting a genetically altered virus into them to produce cell which bell vo almost like tem cells and have the DNA of the patient. But so far, the cells thus produced are not the same as the patient' and it is doubtfuJ thaI we will ever be sure th:It they are. Will !hey then reproduce defective cells?

It seems Ibat without stem cells, the body can only heal by the tissue growing from the existing tissue of the same kind. Where a lot of ti ue i missing, the beating tissoo must grow from wbat is stln there. Thus. where a large patch of skin is missing, the wound must beaJ from the edges inward, In an

effort to heal where proper healing is nOI possible, scar tissue develops. Scar tissue is composed of deformed cells. and when they are worn out !.hey reproduce themselves in the deformed condition. Thus scars usually last indefmite.ly.

BUI there is a solution.

The Silver Magic Wand

You can make as many of your own dedifferentiated cell as yon Deed! And they will contain your own DNA. It is very implc and easy. In the presence of silver ions, produced by "Bredig' process", the body dedifferentiates as many cells as it needs!

In his co-authored best-seller The Body Electric (1985) Doted orthopaedic surgeon and re earcb scientist Robert O. Becker. MD. reviews his experiments in attempting to regenerate full limb in human . Although he rao out of research funds before he succeeded in fully accomplishing this, be did establish much in understanding healing processes. Basically, in seven years of research he found that a v ry low DC electrical current, run between 8 positive electrode and a negative electrode, produced a healing effect in bones. He experimented with everal metals for his eieceodes: gold, pLatinum, titanium, stainless steel and ilver, TIle results with the silver were many time. s more effective than with any of the others. He proceeded to experiment to find out why. His findings were that the DC electrical current was drawing positive

ilver ions off the po iii e electrode, and thai it was the silver ions thai increased the healing so dramatically. Dr Becket showed that ill the presenc« of ~ufficitml silver ions. lilt body would product all IIII! stem cells if Medtd. Without the silver, ir could Dot do so.

The technique known as "Bredig's process", inv ted by Georg Bredig in tne I 80s. is the basic method by which I produce th product that I call "Colloidal Ionic Silver".

Medical cience InSISts that a fed blood cell cannot dedifferentiate because it bas no nucleus. That seems like an obvious conclusion. Dr Becker wa of this opinion to begin wi~ yet, when he studied the changes in tbe productio.o of stem cells in fine increments, he found that mosr of the stem cells came from red blood cellsl An extended study revealed that a red blood cell has a nucleus before becoming a red blood cell In the process of dedifferentiating, !he red blood cell fU'St redevelops its nucleus and then becomes dedifferentiated. Thus, when :I scab forms over a wound it has aU the potential cell. to dediffureoMu:. bul commonly these cells do not do so. However, in the presence of silver, they do dedi.ffccentiate.

In TIle &dy Electric. Dr Becker devotes 3 whole cbapter. "The SiJver Wand", to the effects of "the amazing silver ion". The ·silver wand" be refers to is his silver eteeeoee. On page 175, Dr Becker states: "We may have only scratched the surface of

positive iJvec's medical brilliance. AIready it's an amazing tool. It stimulate boneforming cells, cures the most stubborn infections of all kinds of bacteria and stimulates bealing in skill and other soft tissues .... rnb0re may be other marvels latent in this magic caduceus... Whatever its

precise mode of action may be, the electrically generated silver ion can produce enough cells fOI human blastemas [the material that is produced from stem cells and becomes the healthy healed tissue]; it has restored my belief that fun regeneration of limbs, and perbaps other body parts, can be accompli bed in huD'llUlS ••• ~

Note that Dr Becker makes the cleat statement that, with silver, "the technique IIlllkcs it possible to prodoce large numbers of dedifferentiated cells(page 175). Note also that these "dedifferentiated cells" (stem cells) would be of the patient's own D A. If this is true (and 1 will how further evidence that it is), then why all the struggle to produce stem cells from embryo -and with the associated moral questions as well a . expensive: techniques? Could it be because it is so simple and safe that anyone can do it. even at bome? 11 is already be.ing dent by thousands of people in the alternative health field without thciJ realising it. If the common people ever wake up to this. tht medical establishment will lose billions of dollars.

Dr Becker describes in d~liil the healing of various patienu with multiple infections of the bone and flesh that were no treatable by conventional medical practices but responde, dramatically to these "silver ions", the product resulting froD Btedjg's process. He has wnuen/co-wriuee several papers 8m books on th.is subject, e.g., R. O. Becker and J. A. Spadaro "Treatment of Orthopedic Infections with Electric lly Generate> Silver Ions: A preliminary rep-ort", J Bone Join! Sura Am 197 (X;t; 60(7):871-81.

If he was not taken to the horse hospital immediately to bave the bone scraped and the wound thoroughly cleaned, the horse would not survive, Even tben, he said. this would leave only a thin layer of tissue over the bone. with a depressed and scarred area and no hair. The horse would be ruined. The v t gave the owner an estimate of $28.000 to save the animal. but tbe owner could not afford Ibis bigh cost. Instead. the owner flushed out the wound wilh a garden bose, poured hydrogen peroxide from the grocery store inlO it, Ilusbed OUl the wound again with a garden bose. and then flooded il with 20 ppm "ionic silver".

I have received a number of similar stories to these, but no accompanying pictures. I did receive word from a pig farmer in Japan that he bad excessive ~ths in his pigs and SQ began giving them "ionic silver", This brought the death rate way down. bur also unexpectedly increased their growth rate dramatically. A a result, another pig fanner in Korea tried the silver in the drinking water of his pigs and his report was identical. Is this due to the stem cells produced, or to the killing of the trichinosis 0 common in pigs? I don't know. However, a couple of backyard

gardeners have experimented with using the silver on tomatoes. One of them repons thar the treated tomato plants grew to three times the size of otherwise identical tomatoes. producing three times as many tomatoes than the untreated plant: the tomatoes were three limes tbc weight individually and of better quality than the untreated. is this due to stem cell production? Certainly these cases prove nothing, but they do raise questions and hint at lIle

. possibility that stem ceIJ are produced in the same way in plants and animals.

History and Science of Silver

Silver has been recorded through history as a preventive and 3S a treatment for disease. Silver "scalpels" were used in surgery by tile ancient Egyptians. Copper was said to produce an uncontroll.able decay of the flesb. and a wound from a copper sword was dreaded. During the Crusades. the knights carried a silver cup with them which many drank from, and it was said that a person could not catch a disease from another by drinking out of the same silver cup. Most of the super-wealthy used silver tableware. e\'eI1 though they could have bad gold and even though the silver tarnished and the gold did not. Before the days of refrigeration. it was common to put a silver coin in a bottle of

It bled heavily. A medical aide changed the dressing and applied antibiotic cream daily. It took nearly four months to finally beat and left a large scar the size of the original wound.

"About two month after the first injury healed I 'tumbled again, causing :1 second wound of nearly the same size as the first.

Developments in Production

In more recent times. a process of

producing "ionic silver" by a very-lowvoltage current has been developed. I have been working to improve this procedure or 14 years. It is a very safe ver ion of Bredig's process. Unfortunately, it has one problem: if water containing any impurilie j used, the ilver often combines with the impuritie to produce unde irable produc > t without the impurities. the water will not conduct the necessary electrical current to produce the llver in the water.

A a result, many people arc producing a product by tbi means. using common table alt 8S an electrolyte. Thi largely produces silver chloride. which is ill oluble in water and therefore collects in the tissues. When used in large amounts. silver chloride wHl produce tbat discolourarion of the skin known as argyria. Perhaps you have een pictures of -the blue mao" 01) TV or in the news. H was producing his silver in this manner and drinking it like water over a long period of time.

Another common form i II. "silver protein", a mixmre of silver and gelatin or other protein. It i often used by medical researebers because it is convenient for them, whiJe the prodnction of highqu:aJity "ionic silver" is not. Silver proteins can be produced ca ily and Cheaply in high coocentratioos. They are often promoted as having very high parts per million and there ore assumed to be very effective. The high concentrati n is largely the protein rather than the silver conten Therefore, the surface area covered by the silver is small, reducing lhe effectiveness.

For 14 years, my daughter and 1 have been selling an automated "ionic silvct' generator which worXs quite well using only distilled water. We have sold well over 6,000 of these, and not one customer bas ever complained of any disoolou:ratioo of the skin. We talk on the phone with customers a huge part of the time and
