Lifesilver.com just began its 14th year of operation last month. We have donated the Lifesilver line of products, as a small gesture of our support for their work, to the Cassiopaea chateau family and SOTT team during that time.
When Lifesilver began, in 2006, it was easy to spread information about this unique technology via small, inexpensive banner ads on several alt health and news sites. We usually experienced between 3 - 4000 visitors per month from those ads. The advent of ad blockers rendered that form of advertising dead by 2015. This, in addition to the establishment war on all things alternative health took a toll. A google of "colloidal silver" is now dominated on the first two pages by colloidal silver hit pieces and mainstream medical and quackbuster-type debunking articles, with no shortage of "blue man" scare stories. The one alternative health site that once generated a lot of interest, Mike Adams Health Ranger, quadrupled his ad prices, then alienated half his most loyal followers by going hard right wing political in the run up to the 2016 election. He is now a target for internet censorship. Speaking of censorship, they have the long knives out for Doctor Mercola. I have subscribed to his newsletter for years, but I can tell he is feeling the pressure due to the fact that he is sending out multiple emails daily, becoming spam, and offering up to 40% off on his products. This indicates that he has quite a bit of profit padded into his prices. Sayer Ji and GreenMedInfo is also feeling the heat, as is just about everyone in the distribution of nutritional supplements and non-establishment health information. It is getting difficult to survive in this alt health information suppression atmosphere.
Since Lifesilver has developed a relatively large base of regular customers over the years we have been able to at least keep the doors open with regular client orders. We reduced our inventory since orders were slowing and there was no point in maintaining a large inventory that was not quickly turning over. This had the knock-on disadvantage of the reduction of the big restock order volume discounts, driving down further our operating margins.
Sitting here trying to think of where we might find an intellectually curious demographic to present this data to when, D'oh! I'm sitting in the middle of the most enlightened folk I know... and I have neglected posting this information here for a few years out of a fear of spamming the site. I had assumed that the older posts were sufficient, although they are now pushed far down the threads and seldom referenced. So, I will begin to post more often about this amazing research into legitimate medical silver applications and the one company, American Biotech Labs, that has developed a technology that transformed the old silver colloid methodology into something that is finally getting the attention of the medical communities around the world.
I took a lot of heat from the woo woo crowd when I first undertook this project. The mention of the three US Patents, one protecting the unique particle itself, and the other two protecting the production process method, along with the 5 EPA approvals and the 13 FDA applications, seemed to indicate to this crowd that American Biotech is part of the grand government conspiracy. It was difficult to convince them that here at last was a company that recognized that only through the system would they ever achieve legitimacy and the ability to reach the entire population. It has been a challenge every step of the way with strong bureaucratic resistance. They conducted numerous safety studies, one was the first ever double blind, human ingestion study of a nano-silver, conducted at the University of Utah Medical School. I cannot recall any supplement manufacturer ever conducting any trials of this nature for a specific product. The results were impressive and confirmed what was already known from years of clinical use. The orally ingested silver sols* passed completely through the body, unchanged, within 24 hours. Nothing remained behind. This is 100% bioavailability. There were no observed changes to any of the body's organs or systems - and they were very thorough in investigating this particular topic.
The silver sols do not work chemically like conventional colloids. Rather, they disrupt pathogenic microbial life functions via a catalytic action of robbing electrons. Conventional colloids (ions) carry a positive electron charge which tend to make them bond to any passing compound, rendering useless that particle's antimicrobial function for the duration of its stay in the body. In this negative charge form the silver sols will not affect probiotics in the gut and they will not interact with any prescriptions that are being taken concurrently. In fact several studies have shown that adding silver sols to an antibiotic enhances their effect, especially in cases of antibiotic resistant infections.
