Aids Colloidal Silver HIV and CD4 Count
Aids Colloidal Silver HIV and CD4 Count
I would just like to give you a brief commentary on some recent results that came back to us from an AIDS sufferer in South Africa.
Some Results
Mr S was admitted to hospital in South Africa. His CD4 count was lab tested at 50cells/uL. He was diagnosed as having full blown AIDS with a variety of serious opportunistic infections. The Hospital has about 1000 Aids deaths per year and is very experienced with this condition; they were able to give a fair prognosis that he had less than a week to live.
A friend gave him some Super Silver, which is a much stronger version of standard colloidal silver with the addition of nano clustered silver particles. He began taking it immediately and within a week he had started to recover. About a month later he was released from hospital. Now one year later he is alive, well, fit and back at work.
These are his weekly CD4 counts over the period

Now a couple of things that are very interesting.
The figures show the multiple fluctuations of CD4 count over time. Weekly blood test samples were taken as far as possible at the same time of the day. The lab results show how variable the count can be for an individual. Since January 2008 he has been really fit and healthy for approximately one year. But his CD4 count has never recovered to above the 200 to 300 c/uL AIDS threshold level.(see below for an overview on CD4 count) But he has been front-line exposed to 2 local flu episodes amongst other things in that time and has never been ill. He still takes a reduced daily level of Super Silver. He has had no other opportunistic infection of any kind in that period.
The overriding fact is that he is alive, cheerful and healthy and not succumbing to anything that’s thrown at him – no effort. He has had at least one full happy year over his diagnosed expectations
My Thoughts and Questions:
I think the HIV virus is still there. Getting rid of viruses that are systemic, deep seated, not localised, non vasculated nor predominantly blood borne is notoriously difficult and can take years to completely eliminate if at all. It may be that the Super Silver is gradually tackling the virus; Super Silver has been shown to kill viruses in vitro. Practically speaking as long as the AIDS condition is held in check then Mr S can comfortably wait and follow the virus progress with viral load blood tests as per http://www.vulcansilver.com/some-users-experiences/5.html If other anti retro viral medications had been administered during this time there would be no negative interactions – so OK Bear in mind that only about 2% of the body’s CD4 cells are in the blood, which is where we test for them; the rest are in tissues such as lymph nodes. Changes in the CD4 cell count, which looks only at the blood levels, only measures the movement of T helper cells (CD4) into and out of the blood, not the total number of CD4 cells in the body. It is estimated that as many as 10 billion (1 x 1010) HIV cells called virions are produced every day in people with established HIV. So now a few rough calculations :
Silver available in one ml dose of Super Silver = 6 x 1019 atoms
Because they are Nano clustered (20 atoms say) = 3 x 1018 clusters available
Say an uptake when orally taken of 0.1% = 3 x 1015 this is not known but will be very low
This number of colloidal silver clusters is more than adequate to tackle the 1 x 1010 virions of HIV if they were all in the blood stream; but remember that perhaps only as few as 2% of HIV cells are in the blood stream with the majority being in the lymph system. Transfer rates of medications into the lymph is not known with a great degree of certainty but will be exceptionally low. This means that although there is sufficient silver for the HIV virions, the virions are essentially isolated in other parts of the body with low access for direct treatment by any medication.
Other than the adverse effect on the levels of CD4, which massively reduces the immune system viability and is of course potentially lethal through the onset of AIDS, the virus does not seem to have any other bad side effects – unlike some bacteria for example which produce deadly toxins and are lethal in their own right. The HIV virus itself does not do the killing it is the opportunistic secondary infection allowed free reign by the AIDS condition. This potentially means that if the AIDS condition can be controlled by colloidal silver in this way with no apparent side effects, then life expectancy may be substantially improved.
I think this area is a little bit uncharted – so let’s wait and see how the viral loads change over time
Most importantly though if the AIDS condition can be controlled and contained with no side effects, as in this case, then half the job is done.
A brief overview of CD4 counts, which you may find helpful:
A vital part of the body’s immune system is the T helper cells in the blood. CD4 is a small component on the surface of each and every T helper cell. The CD4 level can be measured to give an indication of the health of the immune system. This called the CD4 count. Normal healthy CD4 levels are around 600 to 1500 cells per cubic millimeter (uL) of blood. This level can and will vary considerably during the day and from person to person and depends on many factors including individual health, ethnic group etc.
When infected with HIV, the virus attaches, and then attacks these T helper cells. Over a period of time, the CD4 count drops as the T helper cells are attacked and are not replaced sufficiently quickly. This is why measurement of the CD4 blood cell count level (or the % of CD4) is normally used as an indicator of the development and progress of the HIV condition and the effectiveness of colloidal silver treatment.
With HIV the CD4 cell count will reduce and then hold at around the 500 cell/uL level, sometimes for years. The body remains relatively stable during this period. It’s very important to watch the trend in your CD4 count over time, rather than to place too much emphasis on a single test which may be misleading.
However at some point the virus becomes more vicious, or the body’s manufacture of T helpers lowers, and the CD4 count starts to drop further and not recover.
When the CD4 count drops to between 200-300 cell/uL then this is considered to be the onset of full blown AIDS. This is when the immune T helper cells have reached such a low level that the immune system is no longer capable of dealing or satisfactorily coping with any other infection that comes along – such as colds, thrush etc, these are called opportunistic infections, and give a high and increased risk of serious lethal infection. It is very important that you start treatment at or preferably before this stage.
After this point the CD4 count will start to drop rapidly accompanied by a multitude of random infections, and when the CD4 count dips to around 50 cell/uL then death is imminent.
