Analysis Of History Connected To The Use Of Colloidal Silver

By Stella Gay


It has been claimed that the aristocracy vastly outlived the peasantry during the Plague because they ate and drank from sterling cups and bowls. There may be some truth to this claim, although modern doctors are basically paid to deny that diseases can be treated by anything other than a battery of prescriptions. When one looks at the circumstances surrounding The Plague, it is clear that there may be some health benefits to ingesting colloidal silver.

Better nutrition and being clean is often cited as the reason wealthy outlived poor during this time. While there may be some truth to the benefit of better nutrition, wealthy aristocrats were not all that much cleaner than their peasant counterparts. Due to fears of being accused of witchcraft, all cats were killed in the wealthy houses as well as the poor, and bathing was not regarded as a necessity for anyone.

Their clothing was often much cleaner than their bodies. People at this time had gotten the notion that lice were good luck, and fleas in the bed kept one from having impure thoughts. Leave it to fundamentalist Christianity to bring about a dark age of ignorance, paranoia, and overall backwards thinking.

People did not eat from sterling with any intent on maintaining health, as such wisdom had been largely eradicated from society by that time. It was more a force of tradition which allowed that speck of social vanity. There may have been a time prior to the Dark Ages where people had connected the use of sterling dinnerware with good health, but by this time such objective analysis was not common.

While many of the wealthy households did perish from Plague, statistically speaking they had a much greater survival rate than those who lived in the parish villages. This is made even more pointedly when one realizes that the monks themselves often survived both victims of Plague as well as Leprosy. Monks and Nuns were most often exposed to victims of these two afflictions, as they provided the health as well as spiritual care to these poor souls.

In these modern times people want to understand the science behind this survival, and it repeatedly points to the presence of sterling in the diet of Dark Age people. If the findings are all true, it is most certainly the wonder-drug that has not yet been turned into a drug. It is possibly an antiviral, antibiotic, and antifungal all in one.

Limited research has been performed, and seems to back up this widely held theory. However, there are no universities willing to provide funding for this research, as it acts in opposition to the wishes of pharmaceutical companies who provide much of their funding. If the pharmaceutical giants are doing active research on this, it is being kept quiet.

One is given to ponder this metal and the well-established qualities attributed to it. The pharmaceutical industry is known for taking compounds out of nature and synthesizing them into a chemical with a consistent dose in pill form. If they have found a way to synthesize silver, then they have either placed Pandora back in a box, or they have opened a massive can of worms.
