[Silver and Health]

Silver ions have excellent antibiotics and sterilization. The average antibiotic can only affect six pathogens, but silver ions can kill 650 kinds of bacteria. Silver ions can weaken the enzymes that make vitality in the pathogens, thus preventing the side effects and the tolerance of the bacteria, and fundamentally controlling the growth of the bacteria.

NASA identifies silver as the safest sterilant and uses silver as its primary material to make spacecraft drinking vessels and purifiers. More than half of the world's airlines have chosen a silver-based water purification system. Just as modern science continues to confirm the health benefits of silver ions.

Dr. Robert Special Keg, author of "Man and Electronics", mentions that a considerable part of human immunity depends on silver ions. If the content of silver ions is reduced by 0.001%, the probability of various diseases will increase.

In the modern pharmacopoeia, it has successively contained four silver-containing drugs, such as silver nitrate, protein silver, silver charcoal, silver sulfadiazine, for the treatment of conjunctivitis, gonorrhea, cystitis, dysentery, enteritis, burns and other diseases.

〖Silver antibacterial effect〗

Silver is one of the trace elements in human tissues. Trace amounts of silver are harmless to the human body. WHO stipulates that the safety value of silver to human body is 0.05ppm or less, and the limit of silver ion in drinking water is 0.05mg/l.

The antibacterial mechanism of silver is metal ion action and photocatalysis. Mr. Zhang Wenzhao once said that the chemical structure of silver determines that silver has a high catalytic ability, and the high oxidation state of silver has a high reduction potential, which is enough to generate atomic oxygen in its surrounding space. Atomic oxygen has strong oxidizing properties and can be sterilized. Ag+ can strongly attract sulfhydryl groups (-SH) on proteases in bacteria, and bind them quickly to inactivate proteases, leading to bacterial death. When the bacteria are killed by Ag+, Ag+ is released from the corpses of the bacteria, and then contacted with other colonies, and the above process is repeated, which is also the reason for the persistence of silver sterilization. It has been determined that when the water contains Ag+ of 0.01 mg/1, it can completely kill the large bacilli in the water, and can maintain a new flora for up to 90 days.

The nano silver particles can identify the flora well in the sterilization process, and can well maintain the living environment of the beneficial bacteria group, and have no destructive effect on the normal flora and normal cells in the human body, and do not damage the human immune system. Therefore, nano silver does not have any toxic and irritating effects on the human body.

Colloidal silver (fine particles with a particle size between 10 and 100 nm) has a more effective bactericidal action, and BRAUN and KOCH have analyzed the effect of silver by an in vitro test. They inoculated several special microorganisms and microorganisms naturally growing in the human mouth in an agar culture dish, and then placed silver-containing gelatin sponge. The experimental results clearly show that glial silver has antibacterial and bactericidal effects, which can prevent wound infection and secondary infection. Their research also confirmed that due to the insolubility of colloidal silver, it does not elute from the sponge and has a sustained release effect. Recent studies have further confirmed the effectiveness of colloidal silver. In 1992, L+S GmbH (Germany, test report No. 1117021, 1117020) conducted two tests. Their test procedures were based on the German Pharmacopoeia's assessment of antimicrobial materials and tested the effects of colloidal silver on bacteria, yeast and fungi. Observations were made during a specific period of time, and it was found that colloidal silver has a remarkable antibacterial effect, and no microbial growth is observed around it. The laboratory concluded that colloidal silver has an antibacterial effect.

Silver Life Function Silver not only destroys harmful germs, but also helps repair and rebuild human tissues that are vital to life, such as the famous biomedical researcher Dr. Robert O. Becker. The Body Electric book reads the results of his observations: "Silver has a very effective effect in promoting the regeneration of skin and other delicate tissues, which is unmatched by other natural processes." In addition, silver can effectively promote bone growth and improve the recovery of injured tissues by 50% in a special way. Dr. Becker observed that colloidal silver can promote cell growth very effectively, and can reach the cells of young children. Growth rate. At the same time, Dr. Becker observed that there is a certain internal relationship between human body silver deficiency and certain diseases. The average human body silver ratio is 0.001%. If the ratio is lower than this value, it will affect the normal work of the immune system. Silver plays a role in the basic life process. A very important role.
