Silver
in History
During the late 1800’s western scientists re-discover what had been known
for thousands of years, silver is a powerful germ fighter. Medicinal silver
compounds were then developed, and silver became commonly used as a medicine
and health enhancement. By the early part of the 1900s, the use of silver
was becoming widespread. By 1940 there were approximately four dozen different
silver compounds on the market.
In
the 1970’s the return of silver to conventional medicine began. The late
Dr. Carl Moyer, chairman of Washington University’s Department of Surgery,
received a grant to develop better methods of treatment for burn victims.
Dr. Margraf, as the chief biochemist, worked with Dr. Moyer and other surgeons
to find an antiseptic strong enough, yet safe, to use over large areas of
the body. Reviewing earlier medical literature, Dr. Margraf found continual
references to the use of silver.
Today, the use of nanoparticle silver for health benefits through history
are well known, documented, and easily researched on the Internet. Enjoy
our short history of Silver through photos, from Egypt through current times.
It is fascinating
People used to know what worked but didn't know
why. Now we do, and we’ve perfected it to be the most effective, safe supplementary
health aid ever.
