SUBJECT: UTIS & COLLOIDAL SILVER/ARTICLE
Contributed By: Georgiana Duncan

Before anyone asks -- no, I don't have any reference for this article and the
testimonials. They are from someone selling Colloidal Silver. BUT, I thought the initial explanation regarding UTIs was good enough to warrant passing this on.

I don't know about using it for a cat with a UTI, because those are usually from calculi - and I just don't know that it would help like Hydrangea does. Perhaps along with the Hydrangea. Another thing is that I would have a hard time believing anything could work better or faster than JP-X for UTIs. . .BUT, if all you have is Colloidal Silver - it might be worth trying.

Take it for what it is worth -- and like I said, this initial explanation of UTIs might be helpful. G.

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are caused by bacteria that invade the urinary system and multiply, leading to an infection. UTIs are very common; approximately 8 to 10 million people seek professional medical assistance annually for this disease.

Women are affected more than men, although men and children can get UTIs. Approximately one woman in five will have a urinary tract infection in her lifetime. Most infections are not serious and can be easily treated with antibiotics. However, if left untreated, some infections can result in kidney damage and even death. This is why it is so important to seek appropriate medical treatment if a UTI is suspected.

There are three types of urinary tract infection:

*urethritis (infection of the urethra)
*cystitis (infection of the bladder)
*pyelonephritis (infection of the kidneys)

The urinary tract can be infected from above by bacteria from another part of the body that enter the kidney through the bloodstream, or a UTI can occur from bacteria entering the urethra. Infection from above is most often seen in newborn babies with a systemic infection known as sepsis. Infection from below is much more common in both children and adults.

Urinary Tract
The urinary tract is made up of the kidneys, two ureters, the bladder, and urethra. The major components are the kidneys, a pair of bean-shaped organs located below the ribs near the middle of one's back. The kidneys comprise a complex filtration system made up of individual nephrons that work together to remove waste products from the blood, which are eliminated from the body in the form of urine. The kidneys also function to maintain a stable balance of salts and other substances in the blood, as well as to produce a hormone erythropoietin, which triggers the production of red blood cells in the bone marrow.

The ureters are tube-like structures that transport the urine from the kidneys to the bladder where the urine is stored. Muscles called sphincters tighten around the urethra to prevent urine from leaking out. There are two sphincters: the internal is not controlled consciously, while the external sphincter is under voluntary control. The bladder is elastic and expands as it fills with urine. When the bladder reaches a certain capacity, which differs for each individual, the brain sends impulses to the internal sphincter to relax and other impulses to a muscle called the detrusor to contract and expel the urine out the urethra. This process is under the voluntary control of the individual, who can hold the urine until social circumstances allow for urination. (Loss of this control is urinary incontinence.)

Urine is normally "sterile," meaning that it usually contains no bacteria. The body accomplishes this through several methods. First, the two sphincter muscles that prevent urine leaking from the bladder to the urethra, also prevent the bacteria that normally colonize the skin from ascending through the meatus (the opening in the urethra) into the bladder. Second, the length of the urethra makes it difficult for bacteria to get to the bladder. The fact that women have a much shorter urethra than men accounts for the fivefold increase of UTIs among women compared to men.

Finally, if bacteria do make it to the bladder, the body is equipped with valves where the ureters empty into the bladder, a region known as the trigone. These valves prevent urine and any bacteria from backing up into the kidneys. Further, the bladder almost completely empties when urination occurs, so that any bacteria present should be excreted as well. Despite these defense mechanisms, infections
sometimes occur.

How Colloidal Silver Cured My Chronic Bladder Infection

I have had recurring bladder infections requiring antibiotics for over 20 years. Usually the infection flares up when summer comes and I work outside in the heat. I get a little dehydrated and by evening I have the familiar burning sensation. I have tried the cranberry juice and cranberry pills and finally give in and go to the doctor for antibiotics to cure the pain.

The infection seemed to be low-grade, all the time. When I traveled by car, not drinking enough liquids, and not stopping enough, the bladder infection would flare up again. I finally found a solution! Colloidal Silver. Since I began taking Colloidal Silver I have had no bladder infection. I drove six hours one day and six hours back the next day (usually a sure case of infection) and had no problem at all. I have worked outside riding the lawnmower for five hours in the heat (another sure way for a flare up of infection) and no sign of infection, or burning sensation at all.

I have used Collodial Silver to stop bladder infections with results in 24 hours or less.

I have suffered for 18 years from recurrent bladder infections, and I am so sick of having to rely on antibiotics time and time again. Having found no relief from any other natural remedies, I am so relieved at last to have stumbled across such a wonderful product. And to think it has been there all this time, I wonder why it took so long to come across it. My older sister actually put me onto it, when she posted me a bottle only about 3 weeks ago. Her boyfriend was seriously burned as a child and the Dr's used the colloidal silver to treat him, and with great success.

My son has a rare condition called Bladder Extrophy. Our Doctor and surgeon told us to keep him on an Antibiotic to prevent Urinary Tract Infections and Kidney problems. I felt so terrible giving him an Antibiotic daily, knowing what it was doing to his immune system and dealing with chronic diarrhea. I kept searching for answers.

I took him off the antibiotic and tried many different natural alternatives. Nothing was working. One day I felt so frustrated, and had almost given up when a woman in a health store told me about colloidal silver. She had me read some reports about it and proof of it's ability. As I read tears ran down my face and I knew I had found an answer. I started giving it to him. At first his little body went through allot, trying to rebuild the immune system that the antibiotics had stripped. Now I give him a teaspoon every day. He is doing great. And I feel so good that I don't have to give him antibiotics regularly, so that when He needs them in surgery they will work well.

I have been using this product for a while. My Chiropractor recommended it for an earache and it worked wonders. Also my son was bitten by a dog and we used it and the bite healed very quickly. Also a few days ago I had a urinary track infection. I was hurting so bad. It was hard for me to walk I had read about douching with it and did. In about 3 hours all the pain was gone and I felt great. Thank you for you silver. I recommend it to everyone.
God Bless, Diane from Little Rock Arkansas

Thank you for the Colloidal Silver info. I originally bought some for myself, then tried it as a last-ditch resort for my cat. (If this didn't work we were prepared to put him out of his misery). He had been on antibiotics for 2 years for a urinary tract infection. He was looking horrible and none of the drugs were working. I gave him colloidal silver and he now has been symptom free for 4 months. He has gained 2 lbs and has rejoined our family as a pet instead of hiding from the world.

Another note: We have outside kittens. Anyone who has seen farm cats/kittens can relate to this. One of the kitten's eye's was horribly swollen up. I'm not sure what causes this, just many kittens succumb to this and sometimes die. I treated this kitten with 1 tsp of colloidal silver ONCE. Two days later the infection had disappeared and he looks as healthy as the others or more so. Yes Colloidal Silver is a great thing for humans, but can save any pet owner a bushel of money by using it instead of those expensive vets bills/meds. Yes, take your pets to the vet for checkups and preventative vaccines/heartworm meds...but keep Colloidal Silver around for them. We wouldn't have my 14 year-old cat with us today without it.
Thanks Again, Marge

GHOE Note: The NSP product JP-X has been shown to be quite effective in many UTI cases. We also have NSP Colloidal Silver.
