Dave, I have gerd that causes me to get lung and sinus infections constantly....and causes me serious breathing issues. Never know what sets it off. It was green beans last time and cabbage before that. Had to put off back surgery for three years because of constant bacterial infections. I finally got a compound antibiotic and steroid to crush and put in a nasal irrigation bulb. Have not used it yet because I would prefer a more natural method. Taking antibiotics by mouth is a fail. I take food enzymes for dairy, meat, fats, carbs, but recently found a plant enzyme that is in Beano to break down plants like cabbage and green beans so I added that. It is a daily struggle and sometimes takes a lot to keep me out of hot water. Iberogast works very well at times.
Best of luck from Texas

You should consider introducing Black Seed Oil (nigella sativa) to your protocol.. lots of studies have been done on BSO, I've been taking it off and on for 7 yrs and its cured my gerd and helped with other issues like prevent colds, allergies etc.

For the GERD, try chewing EVERY BITE of food 40 times. I have had tremendous relief, just doing this simple thing. After a while, it becomes so natural to you that you won't even need to count. :)

This is a suggestion for IIoradanon:
I too suffer from chronic sinus congestion ever since I had Covid. Many years ago I discovered that my body chemistry was more amenable to boric acid (an acid) than a base (sodium bicarbonate or baking soda). Still, for years I continued to use sodium bicarbonate as a nasal wash, with or without colloidal silver, with touch and go results. Occasionally, my eyes hurt, undoubtably sinus related, and for relief, I would then use a homemade boric acid eyewash with incredibly effective results. I was always pleasantly surprised at how much it drained and relieved my sinuses as well. So, today, I finally put two and two together and I actually used my boric acid eye rinse solution in my nettie pot further diluted with warm water and a pinch of salt, and was amazed at the results. I blew out and coughed up quite a bit of crazy stuff that I am certain doesn't belong in my head. Mind you, I don't know the long term effects so I caution you to research further, but my head feels much lighter and better than when I use sodium bicarbonate. If you google how to make boric acid eyewash, you will be well on your way. Good luck and let me know if you have any questions. It is no fun going through life with clogged sinuses, and I am hoping my discovery brings some relief.

Did you add any purified water to your netti pot? Or just 1 TBS silver solution and a pinch of pink salt?

I do the same treatment. First I pour distilled water into the neti pot, then 1 packet Sinus Rinse pre-packaged salt, and finally 1 tablespoon colloidal silver.

I used it 3 times a day. Now today is my third day and I am symptom-free. I'll continue to do this for a week twice a day. I think I've found my cure!

Hello Gina,
I use about 40 parts per million. But Colloidal Silver can be effective at 5 parts per million. For sinus infection I make sure I get a through irrigation...that's a "snort" up both sinus passages and with ear syringe into ears also. I gargle with it and drink two tablespoons twice daily.
I repeat the irrigation three times a day or more. A stubborn infection (lipid coated) can require a week of irrigations. Sometimes with the sinus part of the irrigation I use an ear syringe to get a good strong squirt deep into the sinus passages because the infection may be hiding deep.
Expect a sting on one or both the sinus passages. Then later when you re-irrigate, the sting will be much less...the infection is being killed.
Make sure you squirt ears also because that will get the CS into the Eustachian tubes which is where an infection likes to hide.

Don't waste it by putting drops in your ears to treat a sinus infection. Eustachian tubes connect to the middle ear, not the outer ear.

What is the recipe for Colloidal Silver?

Hello Rebecca,
I think that was me you were addressing the question to...the reciple for colloidal silver.
First, if you are just starting out trying CS, consider buying a few different brands form the Health Food Store. That's where I first got mine...actually a friend bought it for me. I was very sick at the time. That was 20 years ago.
Please consider looking at the "Remedies" section on EC and look at the article called "Colloidal Silver, Blue Man or Miracle Cure".
If that is not what you are needing, please write back and I'll certainly try to help.

I have questions re concentration of colloidal silver with a neti pot.
Colloidal Silver
Eight weeks ago, somehow a sinus pressure behind the eyes, forehead, radiating to the temples began. It seemed kind of sudden, like 1 hour I was normal, and then wham this sinus problem landed in my head.
I have seen my regular physician, took two rounds of some powerful antibiotics, nasal steroids. And no help. She sent me to the ENT, who prescribed be an oral steroid (prednisone) which did not work (only caused me anxiety and depression). I received my results back from the CT scan and they came back pretty much clear. No blockages, no major mucous, no signs of infection. He said I don't have chronic sinusitis.
But the sinus pressure is still there, heavy headed behind the eyes, fatigue, ears full/plugged and I move my jaw around to try to relieve the pressure. I only have sinus mucus (sometimes yellow, sometimes green) in the mornings. Could the CT have missed an infection. I mean I saw with my own eyes, no fluid or blockages????
I read a lot about colloidal silver and purchased a nasal spray. I did about 5 sprays in each nostril this morning and put some in each ear and let sit for 5 minutes. But now I feel more congested in the head, behind the eyes, fatigue, as though as it has back fired on me. Did I do something wrong? is this common or are the results immediate? Should I continue to use the spray in the nostrils. ( the same thing happens when I use neti pot, or a saline nasal spray)
Also, for the past 1.5 weeks I have been on pretty much no carbs, all health greens, cooked and consumed properly.
Any advice on your techniques would be much appreciated, I feel horrible.

Have you seen yoir dentist about tmj problems? It sounds like that could be a part of your problem if your nasal/sinus passages were all clear.

What you are experiencing is common and is a die off reaction. Also known as a Herxheimer reaction. This is caused by the toxins released by the dying infection. When this happens, people tend to stop their treatment, this is the wrong thing to do. Stopping treatment will cause the infection to get worse because it senses its dying and will do its best to come back stronger. The best way to neutralize the effects of the die off is by using ozonated water. The oxygen in the water neutralizes the toxins in the body from the dying infection. I would like to take credit for this information but it was discovered by Bob Beck. You can by a cheap water ozonater online. Drink the ozonated glass of water 3 times a day while on your treatment and it will neutralize the die off.

Have you ever tried using a neti pot with neti salt? If not, try it. Make sure to use neti salt not table salt which can irritate the capillaries. I also use colloidal silver taken orally and with a q tip in my sinuses and ears. It's the only thing I've ever found to knock out sinus infections which I rarely have anymore. All antibiotics do is strip your immune system.

HI U SILVER DUDE, , , , , , some may not appreciate your post, but I do. I just finished a tall glass of Ozonated water and was not aware of this effect. I do it to keep my oxygen blood level up. Now, I just need to learn how to get this oxygen into my cells.
I am not there yet and solicit this information from folks smartern me. When we learn this trick then cancer and chronic disease is a thing of the past. If we ever learn how to keep our cells enriched with Oxygen and our pH alkaline, then we have found the FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH.
I challenge this site and people of the world to take this solution on. There has got to be a simple way to accomplish this. It's a S+2=8 thing. We just have to find it.

Greetings Robert Henry - Please search reconstructed water and vitamin O online. You should have your answers. Reconstructed water is also called hexagonal water, it is the crystal form of water. There are books on the this subject that are fascinating. Happy learning! Sweet Pea

HI U SWEET PEA, , , , , , , , , I learned about water from ice and it's benefits from my Russian author. That's not an easy way to go, so we drink ionized alkaline water which we also ozonate.
The O vitamin is new to me. I think I'll defer to what Dr Shallenberger tells me later this year. I do appreciate folks that think and that includes you.
I also want to give a shoutout to Dave as today my eyes were burning like fire. I have sprayed them with Colloidal Silver twice and things are much better.
Guess all have seen the latest news that our wheat is now going the GMO route. It is difficult to believe how corrupt our country has become in the last 60 years. It all began on Jekyll Island, Ga. where the Eastern Capitalist all had vacation cottages.

I would suggest using colloidal silver with a netipot; this relieves pressure and build up of mucus. Works for me.
Directions: (Netipot w/ colloidal silver)
- Put seasalt (iodine free) into netipot
- Add purified or distilled water
- Add 1 to 2 tsp (depending on potency of colloidal silver) into netipot.
- Mix with spoon.

hiya, thanks for your post. I was wondering what PPM colloidal silver I woud use. I currently has some 12 to 14 ppm. Do you think that wouldbe ok..? thanks, Col
(Earth)
01/16/2016
Colloidal silver has been found effective at 1-3 ppm. Much over 5 - 10 is wasted and more likely to be harmful if taken internally.
What is most important is the particle size and you want a "nano" colloidal silver; smaller the better.
Lots of products claim to be nano but few supply the testing evidence for it.
So far, I've been using it orally for cellulitis and intranasally for sinusitis. It hasn't been long -- about 2 day -- but the cellulitis *seems* to be improving. The sinusitis? Not so much. Since cellulitis comes and goes, I'm not ready to give credit to cs, yet but I haven't given up hope for either. Time will tell.
Forgot to include the link for the dosage. It's from a BYU study here
CS killed every bug studied at no more than 5 ppm. That's *every* bug studied -- aerobic AND anaerobic -- including the nasties like h. flu, e. coli, strep, k pneumonia, and others.
The reason it works is that it causes the little buggers to rupture; their cell walls just start leaking and they die off. That's true of ALL living organisms -- including us, presumably but the dose is much lower for single-cell organisms. That's also the reason that it *should* work against fungi as well, or so they say. Haven't seen any medical studies on that.
You can imagine the pharmaceutical industry isn't too pleased with studies of this kind and since they control the purse strings, not too much is being done on it.

After adding a few grains of salt to your Ag + H2O, if the solution stings, add a tiny amount of baking soda to your Ag + H2O. It bumps ph to more alkaline and buffers the solution and will no longer burn. Don't go crazy with the baking soda just a scant "pinch" to 8 oz. of Ag + H2O.

I would like to try it, and it is connected to my neurologists office. I had to have brain surgery in July. I am still suffering with sinus infections. I started drinking cayenne pepper oil yesterday. I still feel headachy but not as severe as yesterday it was totally debilitating and has nothing to do with my brain. I broke my nose in a car accident years ago. I also am incorporating black seed oil into my morning regimen.

The combination of colloidal silver and oil of oregano has done wonders for not only curing sinus infections but also preventing them. At the onset of the infection, where the mucus first starts turning green (indicating infection) I'll not only ingest the liquid colloidal siver (as silver protein, 3ppm) that I get from my local healthfood store, but I'll also put a few drops up my nose while lying on the bed with my head back. For extra measure, I take oil of oregano caps. I have wiped out sinus infections within just days of this treatment.

Silver and oregano work great for me also. I would not use a silver protein though, as they contain salt or other additives that can contribute to argyria (turning blue). Mesosilver is the best I have found so far. Look at the testing on the website - type in Silver Colloid.

I bought a bottle of a well known nasal spray, poured all the medicine out, washed the bottle and refilled it with colloidal silver, 4 or 5 grains of salt, and a little water. To use lay on bed, lean head off side, squirt into one nostril, holding the other side of your nose inhale as much as you can. Then do the other side.
It will make your nose dry up and if you feel it burning, you know you had an infection and it is busy killing the germs.
Repeat as often as necessary.
You can take this to the office with you, use as if a regular nasal spray. It will still work. The laying off the bed it to get it into sinuses above your eyes.

I ve been using Colloidal Silver for a few days now and definitely had the "Stinging" in my right sinus cavity. After a day or so I also noticed my right ear also started to hurt. I'm assuming its just helping everything . My wife says I shouldn't sniff the Silver deeply into the nasal cavity. She thinks it'll cause an ear infection. Is there any truth to that? Seems like you should get it back there as far as possible right?

I have struggled with sinus infections my whole life. Went through a terrible sinus surgery and I still get them. Do you think your nasal spray can be used as a preventative or do you have to wait for the infection to onset? Do you have allergies? Just wondering if this might help.

I have a "fungus ball" in the sphenoid sinus, found by CT scan. Surgery is the "only" option. I have had reconstructive jaw surgery and the thought of facial pain is too much to think about. PLEASE advise if the sphenoid sinus can be cleaned by silver spray, neil med flushes, or if surgery might be the only option. Thanks

Dear Brenda,
It sure seems like it would be worth it to try colloidal silver to avoid surgery. It is common to find cures here at EC that medical professionals said did not exist!
If silver doesn't work, there are many things that might. You could check out the nasal polyp page for ideas on what people use in the naval cavity for different issues. Also the sinus infection pages....
