Colloidal Silver
★★★★★
You can purchase a "Cool Mist" Mister at Walmart for about $36. Do not get one with a filter. 10PPM CS is good enough as one teaspoon contains about 100 trillion particulates of silver bonded onto the oxygen molecule. So not to waste a gob of money, just put a few oz. of CS in mister, and turn on full blast. Place your mouth and nose as close to the mist coming out and breathe in. At first, you will cough so take shallow breaths and increase till your coughing quits. Do this for maybe two minutes at a time and several times daily. The trick is to finally be able to take in the largest breath you have ever taken as it opens the back of your lungs and permeates where it's really needed.
Blowing up balloons gently at first is great also. You will fail at first but keep trying...Good luck

Do you know if colloidal silver has any affect on c.o.p.d.? I also am on warafan for my blood clots I take 400 mg. daily of magnesium , tuna fish and sardines. Does this help at all? I also walk every day until I get tired. Any advice would be well appreciated.

Hello Dennis;
If I had been diagnosed with COPD...
Taking Colloidal Silver orally probably wouldn't help too much the COPD but using the CS in an inhaler/steamer might help. So I'd get an inhaler at a Drug store and use the CS every night for a month. I'd just go that long to see if there was any improvement. IF the COPD is caused by a virus or fungus or bacteria, in theory the CS might help since the silver would be killing the infection. But if the COPD is not caused by infection then then I'd expect to see no improvement over the month of using the CS.
I use CS every day...twice daily in fact because I believe the CS kill virus infection system wide and as I age my immune system is not working as well as when I was young. So I'm not advising you NOT to take CS orally, but rather telling you that oral consumption won't likely show up in a short time as dealing with COPD. The more I can get the CS directly onto the target area the better it works.

From what I have read it is not advisable to heat colloidal/ ionic silver to the point of boiling.
A nebulizer is an appropriate alternative.

Hi Susan, strange you should ask, I have just this minute ordered a 500 ml bottle of 3 per cent hydrogen peroxide from Amazon with a spray. I havent tried to spray it in my throat, I have planned to do so, so many times, but this time gonna give it a go. Bill, bless him used the chemist store one in the brown bottle, and it worked fine for him, but ive bought the one that really is safe to take. Hope that helps. in fact quite a lot of reviewers now tell you not to use 35 per cent, as it can be quite dangerous. your best bet especially if you havent used it before is to stick with the 3 per cent. Bill never diluted his, but some do. Best wishes Rosina from london UK

Dear Carolyn,
I couldn't find the original post you were referring to...are you thinking of using the Colloidal Sliver in a nebulizer? We have done so (though not for COPD) and what we used was 10ppm.
Hope that helps.

BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS
Five days back I started him on Colloidal silver - he nebulizes 2.5 ml every day. The third day he developed Fever, weakness, flu-like symptoms which was a Detox reaction, I guess, from the CS killing the pathogens. His fever is better in the last 2 days, and his phlegm seems to have reduced but he still has constant wheezing. Hope that things will get better. Will keep updating. Hopefully it may help some one. God bless this site and all the people who contribute to it!!!

He needs his 25 hydroxy D levels to be at least 60-80 ng/mL in order for his immune system to work. The steroids destroy the immune system and we need the immune system to fight. No amount of silver will boost the immune system. I would give him a 3 day superdose of 2,000 iu's per kg of body weight, once per day for 3 days only and then use a maintenance dose daily of about 50 iu's per lb of body weight once per day.

25 hydroxy D (the test name) it is a measurement of your Vit D through blood work. The level at least 60-80 ng/mL is optimum health don't accept NORMAL as good enough to heal, it is not.

Hi Cgott,
Can you indicate how your husband has been doing since using the colloidal silver mixed with hydrogen peroxide? What is the brand that you bought? Thanks
I experienced some negative side effects from nebulizing a combo of Colloidal Silver & Hydrogen Peroxide (maybe used too much H2O2), so did some research and found some warnings that it can be too strong so please be advised to go at this w/ caution. Maybe do a daily rotation of C.S. then H2O2 and if not getting desired results start w/ a very minimal amount of oxygen to silver ratio.
Leonard Harrowitz used to sell an Oxygen/Silver product advertised as the most potent natural antibiotic called "OxySilver". He and his wife have since divorced and I assume she got the retail business, but I think the product is still available.

I have started on a product that is NOT colloidal silver but is a nano tech silver solution. I have had COPD for 13 years and at 38 my lung age was 96. Since I have been nebulizing 1 tsp 2x a day the tightness has started to go away. I suggest you give it a try.

This is a reply to Patsy in Brisbane, Australia posted 7/14/2007. I am sorry I have not replied to your question. Have not visited the site for a while. Use 5mls of Colloidal Silver in your nebuliser 3-5 times a day until your sputum clears. I also use P73 Wild oregano oil, 2 gelcaps 4 times a day. I have started on a liver cleansing diet, lots of raw juices and fresh vegetables and fruit according to The liver cleansing diet and raw juices can save your life by Dr. Sandra Cabot. She has a base in the USA and also Australia. All the products I use you can order on-line. The staff of Dr. Cabot are very helpful and will give you advice tailored to your needs. This is for chest infections for people with bronchiectasis/COPD. Hope this helps. PS I have not had a chest infection or a cold or flu in a year. Regards, Maddy, Nottingham, UK

The colloidal silver will only help with the infection as the silver kills virus/bacteria/fungus. Go back to Ted's idea of using DMSO in the nebulizer for COPD.
For lung infection, use it in the nebulizer also.
For sore throat you gargle the silver liquid and let drain down throat.
For sinus infection, inhale into sinus on both sides three or four times in the space of two hours. Let drain down throat.
For recurring infection in sinus assume the problem may be in the eustasian tubes in ears, a typical source for secondary infections; so use an ear syringe for that possibility.
For possible systemic infections use the silver orally over a two month period twice daily, about two table spoons per dose on empty stomach. If you do not know much about colloidal silver, you do not need to see or taste the silver for there to be a beneficial effect. Even at 5 parts per million (5 atoms of silver to 1 million molecules of water) the silver can accomplish the purpose. And at those levels there will be no "tinting" of the skin, even if taken for two months twice daily as suggested above for possible systemic (whole body) infections.

Anything I could add, or try?
Thanks, Lorie
Hi Lorie,
Oral colloidal silver (AgNPs) are not likely to get any useful amount of AgNPs into the lungs. The only way I have managed to have an impact on the lungs with AgNPs is via inhalation of AgNPs using a cold process small room vaporizer/humidifier. A nebulizer will work, but it is slower because of smaller delivery volume than the cold process vaporizer/humidifier.
A word of caution though, you cannot use the hydrogen peroxide (HP) at the same time as AgNPs because the HP will destroy real colloidal silver in seconds.
For myself, if I was going to try and use both, I might experiment on myself by alternating a week of HP inhalation and a week of AgNPs. If I was going to do this everyday to myself, I would limit my AgNP dose to twice a day for the first week and then once a day after the first week. After the second week I might switch to one application every other day.
If after a month or so I determined improvement when using one substance over the other, I might consider switching to the better substance only, but that's just how I look at it.
I will soon be writing a post about COPD which will offer another supplement worth considering. Keep an eye out for that!
You should always check with your doctor or professional health care provider to make sure that such use of HP and AgNPs is safe for you.

Dehumidifier
★★★★★
Having been issued with a Spiriva powder inhaler and a Ventolin Evohaler, after attending a Pulmonary Rehabilitation Programme at my local hospital and being given advice on how best to manage the condition I had to get on with the rest of my life as best as I could.
Despite taking the prescribed medications as directed they gave me little relief and each day became more of a struggle to combat the illness.
Then at the beginning of December 2015, with my condition rapidly deteriorating, I began to search the Web in earnest to try and find some answers to my problems.
To cut a long story short something steered me in the direction of purchasing a home dehumidifier with a built in charcoal filter and ioniser.
Living in the UK, as I do, we can get very high levels of moisture in our homes due to the excessive amounts of rain that we get.
This can basically fill the lungs with water from the atmosphere and I was coughing up excessive amounts of watery phlegm on an hourly basis.
The humidity level inside your home should be in the range of 40 – 65 (on a scale of 100) and, having purchased a cheap humidity gauge, I found that the levels in my home were reading a massive 85.
So I went online and purchased a dehumidifier which could remove about 10-12 litres of water a day from the air in your home.
It arrived about a week before Christmas and when I set it running it was giving a reading around 85 and, running it for just 12 hours a day, it was removing 2-3 litres of water from the atmosphere on a daily basis and the humidity level reading was gradually getting lower.
After 4 weeks of use the humidity level is now down to between 45 & 50 and the level of water that it is removing is getting less and less everyday.
My home was not showing any signs of having these high levels (such as mould on walls & ceilings, windows running with damp etc.) but I still had very high levels just the same.
My condition has improved in leaps and bounds over those 4 – 5 weeks and I now find that I am no longer coughing day and night, in fact I hardly cough at all now, and I no longer need to use the Ventolin Evohaler.
I am able to sleep at night now and my mental health, (I was getting very depressed and may I also say verging on suicidal?), is also starting to improve as my health gets better.
So the question is did I have or not have COPD? I don't really know, but I do know that my health has started to improve now (although I feel that some damage has been caused to my lungs because of all the years of coughing) and I am looking forward to a healthier life.
The doctors didn't seem to be able to help me – the answer to my problems was the dehumidifier and, although it might not be the answer for everyone, it could possibly be the answer for you too.
So, in conclusion, I offer this advice to those suffering with this dreadful condition.
(1) - Go online and get a humidity gauge.
(2) – Use it throughout the home for a week and see what readings you're getting.
(3) – If you find that you are getting high readings get yourself a dehumidifier.
I CAN'T GUARANTEE IT BUT IT WORKED FOR ME – IT COULD ALSO WORK FOR YOU SURE IT WELL WITH FAITH

Dear Maureen,
This is wonderful! I am so happy you have found this solution.
It makes me think about people who move to desert areas to improve their health. Perhaps a similar cure, but you didn't have to move. Just use a dehumidifier. I will be tucking this possible simple solution away for future.
Thank you.

Dietary Changes

A year ago, I was diagnosed with chronic Bronchitis - COPD, so severe that my ears turned blue from lack of Oxygen. My blood pressure was very high, too. The DOT immediately yanked my Health card for driving truck. When I went to the Dr. my Oxy saturation level was 81. He put me on an inhalor and I had to use a Nebulizer several times a day. Nothing really changed. I could breathe a little better, but was still able to walk only for short distances.
I love to cook, and tried to think of the healthiest people that I know. I started cooking with spices from China, India, and other Asian areas. I use curry powders (in various heat ranges), Turmeric, Cayenne, Garlic, Ginger, Paprika, Mustard, Wasabi, and others. I use one or more of these ingredients in every meal, and most snacks, that I cook.
About two months ago I had a physical, blood work, and EKG in preparation for surgery. My lungs no longer "wheeze" (I do have a bad day once in a while...but not DAILY); my blood pressure was normal; my Oxy sat level is 95 to 97 percent; (both) Cholesterols were at healthy levels, and, except for my COPD, I am as healthy as can be! The best result of eating all that good, spicy-hot, healthy food is that I can walk at least a half a mile without "running out of breath."
I have NEVER posted to any Website but feel that people should be aware of the benefits of spices and herbs. I have now found a local store that sells 1 pound packages of spices, instead of paying $4 to $7 in grocery stores for those little bottles. The savings are phenomenal. This is the best site that I have found that re-enforces my belief in hot foods. Thank you EARTH CLINIC.

Anyhoo, I've been taking it about every12 hours (as it starts wearing off) and I've worked up to a capful. My breathing has never been better. I don't need my inhalers so much and haven't had much wheezing. I've had some though I am so thankful for this sight starting me on naturally treating my body, without all the poisons. I never would have found the dmso for my COPD. My pulse ox is 98 and holding!

Interested in hearing theories on this. Ted maintains that Dmso has the potential to dissolve tar in the lungs. Recent studies with lab rats have found that using a retin A substance injected into the rats allowed them to regenerate new alveoli and cured them of induced emphysema. Since we know that dmso penetrates the skin directly, what might be the potential of mixing 2% retin A (tretinoin) into a 50% dmso gel and using this transdermally on the chest. Any thoughts on this?

I've had alot of trials and errors. Mainly I've found that the drs almost killed me with all the meds.
I don't take dmso on a daily basis, but I still use about 1 capful a day when I'm sick, along with msm. I also take the Apple Cider Vinegar with baking soda, coconut oil mixed with cayenne, black pepper, turmeric, honey. 3 tbsp of coconut oil and honey and 1tsp of turmeric and cayenne and pinch of pepper. 2 tbsp of blackstrap molasses also daily. I am going shopping, had a garden and keep my grandson a couple nights a week. Thank you earth clinic! You all have saved my life!

DMSO

I know when I have enough DMSO as it will will make me cough up sputum that I hadn't been able to get up before. I only have Asthma. But, I read about the use of DMSO for COPD in Chile probably 20 years ago.
They claimed a cure for it that time, and, I've not read anything different since. I wish our medical community was more open minded about "what works" than just what the big pharmaceuticals companies want them to push. They don't want us getting well with anything they can't patent and make billions from.
Just be careful that your husband doesn't do too much, too soon. It's always best to start small with anything and work your way up. Good Luck!

I just read that if you're doing albuturol or any of the other pharm drugs to NOT just start using CS, HP or DMSO. People should research more first.
I use CS and HP in a nasal sprayer and inhale the mist. The Nasal sprayer works good for me. I'm a smoker and it helps me breath easier.
I'm just researching about the DMSO in my lungs.
I used DMSO and CS mixed half and half, when I had all my teeth pulled, rubbed it on my cheeks the first few days, and it took out all the swelling and pain, and then applied it directly to the teeth sockets. Everything closed up in a week. Dentist couldn't believe it.
DMSO, Colloidal Silver

In researching my options, I found the idea of using DMSO and Colloidal Silver in a nebulizer. I mix 7 cc of Colloidal Silver, 3 cc DMSO, 3 cc distilled water. This mix lasts me for 6 treatments, plus a little. I do three or four treatments a day with 2 cc of my mixed solution. When I started the Silver/DMSO treatments I stopped ALL of my asthma COPD meds. I have used my inhaler once. I have been doing this new regimen for 4 days. The phlegm is slowly coming up. I feel better than I have in months. I have an appt. with my GP next week. I hope he hears better lung sounds. My next apt with my Pulmonologist is next month. I will try to repost as time goes on.

I have been using DMSO and colloidal silver for two or three weeks now. There have been several days that I had to use an albuterol inhaler once a day due to wheezing but that is so much better than using a nebulizer 4-5a day wit albuterol! So....I am using DMSO and colloidal silver twice a day in my nebulizer. I mix 3cc of DMSO, 7CC COLLOIDOL SIVER AND 3cc. Purified water. I put 2cc of this mix in the nebulizer twice day as previously stated. I cough up yellow stuff many times a day, which I believe is residue from previous lung infections. I now have hope for a better quality of life for many years. I am stronger than I was a week before starting this treatment. I am also going to be starting MSM soon for asthma and allergies And various aches and pains.

I am shocked! It has been 4 days since I did a "breathing treatment" In 40 years, I have never gone 4 days without some kind of asthma treatment. In the last 6 months, I was doing prescription nebulizer treatments 3 or 4 times a day...until I found this information about DMSO and Colloidal Silver. I used both of this for several weeks without using any prescription medicine, BIG improvement! Then I decided to go one step further and added 1 tsp of coconut oil which I take 3 or 4 times a day. After a week of the added coconut oil, I quit using the nebulizer treatments with DMSO and Colloidal Silver. Yesterday I started wheezing, wheezed for 5 minutes and then coughed up some nice thin mucus and the wheezing stopped. The coconut oil has radically thinned my chest mucus which I cough up easily and frequently. Y'all I am so happy! This is a new life for this old lady. I am planning to take some big steps in the near future. 3 months ago I thought I would be dead in 2 years or less. Thanks for great information!!

Hi Moonshamarie of Edmonton, I'm replying to your queries that you asked Patti, however, her message is about 4 years old now, and yours is so up to date hence my replying. Your question to Patti was did she take 1 teaspoon a day? And did she ingest it? She said she took the coconut oil 3 - 4 times PER DAY! And I am certain she ate it from the spoon? Because she stopped the Colloidal Silver and the DMSO and then carried on with Coconut oil! I am positive she ate it from the spoon.
I hope this is of help to you and also Mark who mentioned Patti if he is still around somewhere.
