Digestive Problems


Can Reduce Your Immune Function?


By Steven R. Frank 16 C


“Antibiotics, preservatives and sugar have


allowed a fauna of pathogens


that have been eating away at your intestinal lining, 24/7 for years.” - Steven R. Frank


onsidering the pervasive use of preservatives and the increase in modified foods in our diet,


is it any wonder why we have more digestive prob- lems than any other generation on Earth? Our high sugar and carbohydrate intake feeds the fungus and molds (like Candida) that we don’t want in our gut. The preservatives in food that are designed to kill bacteria in the bread, cereal, canned and dried foods are killing the good bacteria that we do want in our gut. We all know that antibiotic use disturbs the bacterial balance in a terrible way.


Get Rid of the Weeds If you have tried probiotics then you know that they can have a positive effect. However, if your front yard was a huge crab-grass/weed patch, would you sprinkle thousands of dollars of high-quality seed on it expecting a beautiful lawn to emerge? Of course not. You would first get rid of the weeds. Consider this three-pronged ap- proach to the gut rehabilitation process. The first step is to get rid of the weeds. Kill off as many of the bad bacteria and irritating fungus as possible. The second step is to re-seed the gut with good bacteria which will aid in digestion and keep out the fungus. Thirdly, we need to repair the damage that has been done to the epithelial lining of the intestines by the fungus and bad bacteria. This can be done holistically and naturally. In order to accomplish the first step, we need a broad-spectrum antimicrobial that is


bio-compatible yet kills bacteria and fungus significantly. An enhanced aqueous silver colloid of better than 40 ppm will accomplish this nicely. It is best taken on an empty stomach and in bolus dosing of 2 ounces every 2 hours. This can be continued for two or three days with one bottle per day being consumed. It should be remembered that mixing a colloid of silver with anything containing salt will ruin it and food tends to make it less effective. Taking the colloid on an empty stomach and not eating for an hour afterwards maximizes the effect. After two or three days of this protocol, you will have attenuated the bacteria and fungus in your gut significantly. Another side benefit of this is that the level of H. pylori in your stomach will also be dramatically reduced.


Re-Seed with Good Bacteria Now, it’s time to re-seed with the probiotic of your choice. This will re-establish the fauna of bacteria necessary to support proper digestion and nutrient extraction from your food. The pro- biotic ingestion should be continued for at least a month. It is not that important to have the most expensive probiotics available. The most import- ant task is to make sure that they have a good environment in which to multiply and thrive. You gave them an environment where they’re not fighting to survive by clearing out all the bad bacteria and fungus in the first step.
