Everything You’ve Always Wanted to Know About Silver

Transcript:


If you’ve been here for a while, you know the ōNLē Methodology is not about quick fixes or trendy shortcuts. It’s about bringing the body back into balance so that you can truly heal from the inside out. And while there are many pieces to that, today we’re focusing on just one of them - silver.

This episode is a little different. You’re about to hear a live recording from a session I recently hosted with our silver manufacturing partner, Doug. We had several guests joining us live and over a thousand questions submitted ahead of time. We condensed those questions down to the most common and important ones so that in this one conversation, you get answers to just about everything you’ve ever wondered about silver.

Silver, for me, was one of the most intimidating parts of our healing journey. When our naturopath first sent me home with a couple of bottles, I had so many fears and questions. 

That’s exactly why I wanted to have this conversation with Doug. This is an honest, transparent look at what silver actually is, how it works in the body, and what makes the silver we use in ōNLē products so different from anything else on the market.

My hope is that this episode addresses your fears, answers your biggest questions, and gives you the confidence to use this tool as part of your own healing journey. Because that’s what the ōNLē Methodology is about: education first, so you can lead your own healing with confidence.

Let’s dive in.

Juniper (00:00)

I am going to start by going over the framework of what this is going to be, because we had over a thousand questions submitted for this. And we, of course, can't be here for a whole week. So I have consolidated them down to about 25 questions that were repeatedly asked. And what I feel is the most important. I remember when our naturopath sent me home with a couple bottles of silver saying, this is part of what is going to heal your son. And I was really scared. I did not have any knowledge base on silver. And just like anything, When we don't have knowledge, we can feel really intimidated and really scared. And so my hope with this is to help break down any fears that you may have or misunderstandings. There is unfortunately so much misinformation out there about silver. And the more we can break through that and really understand how silver, particularly cleanse, is working in our body, we are so much more empowered to really dive into our healing journeys with confidence. So we have Doug here with us today. Doug is our manufacturing partner who creates all of our silver products. So this is Cleanse. That's our internal, I should have had some of them here, but that's our internal silver supplement, Relieve, or we are soon renaming this to Magic Stuff. That's our topical silver, and then our wash bar soap.

In just a minute, I'm going to let Doug introduce himself and I'm just gonna look at my notes here really quick to make sure I didn't go miss anything as we're getting started. Okay, so there are a few different people here. People from the Only Team, really excited to learn more about Silver. There are people who signed up who are naturopaths, midwives, doulas, different holistic practitioners, health coaches who share the only methodology and rebalancing in their practices. And then there are so many who are, like I was, here to heal your child who's experiencing chronic symptoms or yourself. And so we are going to move really as efficiently as we can through this so that we can get to as many of your questions as possible things that come up, you can please put them in the chat, but we are going to try to keep this to an hour. I know that your time is really valuable So Doug, will you please introduce yourself and we can jump into this. I have the questions printed here and I'm just gonna go down the list and I'll ask you and we can work through it.

Doug (02:52)

My name is Doug and we've been working with Juniper now for a long time and we've been producing alkaline structure silver for 20 years now and working with Juniper pretty much exclusively through this journey and seeing amazing things happen and we also produce the soaps, anything silver related and that's our world. We live, breathe, drink sleep, silver, and see it as one of the, I'm to say, the miracles of creation when we dig into what we're talking about today, as far as what a lot of people don't understand with silver and why silver. So hopefully we're going to help broaden the understanding and then help relieve some of maybe some of the fears and concerns with silver as well. So Juniper, ask away and we'll move through this.

Juniper (03:52)

Okay, I've broken this down into four categories. The first is practical use and dosage. So let's start number one. How do you use cleanse? How do you personally, Doug, use silver every day in your life?

Doug (04:06)

I take it every morning, I take it every evening. So I'll take it in the morning and I'll take it just before dinner. ⁓ not that I have any health concerns personally right now, but I use it for immune support and digestive support. And then I use the gel every day on my hands, my feet, anywhere on the body that that means that's my personal usage as well, the soaps of course in the shower, in the bath, anywhere.

If I'm looking at a soap, I'd rather use that that's just pure and no fillers or toxins or any nefarious gradients. anything, you know, looking at life in general is how do we detoxify as much as possible.

Juniper (04:48)

What are the benefits and how often should me and my child be taking silver?

Doug (04:54)

Okay, so we'll break down the benefits for a second, understanding what silver does. So silver naturally eliminates yeast, bacteria, fungus, mold and viruses. And silver does that through an energetic process. If we look at the periodic table of elements and we look at all the things we learned in grade six or grade seven, silver is really interesting that silver is actually missing an electron. And so silver by design, is constantly giving and receiving, looking to recharge itself. So what it's doing is it's actually stealing the energy source from a yeast, from bad bacteria, fungus, mold, and viruses are a bit of different discussion on how viruses work. So when we look at how does silver work or what can we use it for, it broadens out what we can use it for. So if we think about toenail fungus, okay, what is toenail fungus? It's a fungus. You pink eyes, a bacterial infection, diaper rash is a bacterial infection. So when we start to think about for a second, what is the mechanism that is wreaking havoc on my body? A lot of people will think about the label of what's wreaking havoc, you know, back to pink eye, back to a digestive issue, back to like I say, toenail fungus or acne or something like that, or skin condition and they think of it as the condition, but they don't think of it, what is the cause? So then if we think about for a second, what is the cause, then we can think, okay, can silver be helpful here or not? So when thinking about how can I use it or what can I use it for, if you just take a step back for a second and think, okay, is it a bacteria? Is it a virus? Is it a fungus? Is it a mold? Is it a yeast? If the answer is yes to that and we can get silver in contact with it, then we can be successful at helping.

Juniper (06:50)

Very well said. And then the second part of that question is how often should me and my child be taking it?

Doug (06:57)

⁓ Twice a day is always the best because we want to keep it circulating throughout the body and proper hydration. A big one is proper hydration because we want to get it moving throughout the body as well. morning and evening is always the best. But if you've got, if you're facing like a cold or a flu or something that's wreaking havoc on your body, you can't take too much. And we'll talk about that further down because I know you've got some questions around like the collodial syllabus and that kind of thing. So in regards to this question on this product, you can't take too much. will never turn you blue. It'll never cause a side effect or anything like that. So I always kind of live by the method of hit it hard, hit it fast and go after what's wreaking havoc on the body. So two teaspoons or two tablespoons, you know, depending on what you've got for your protocol twice a day.

Juniper (07:54)

How, okay, this kind of, we just answered this, how often can you use it? You really can't take too much.

Doug (08:01)

Yeah. And so for instance, if we're talking about a urinary tract infection, you know, the protocol for urinary tract infection is take actually a quarter of the bottle in the morning, followed by a shot glass every hour for eight hours and do that for one to two days. Because what we want to do is we want to fill and saturate the bladder, go after that bacterial infection that's we can have it there and keep that bladder saturated with the silver so that can do what can do. So depending on kind of what ailment we're looking to address will sort of justify or say, you know, how much of it do I want to use? The nice thing that I can say to anybody that's listening to this is with this product, you can't over serve it. Like there was, I was speaking at the natural path at convention last year in Las Vegas. Every time I fly into Vegas, I get what you get on the plane. It just beats the heck out of you.

And so when I got there in the evening, I was like, man, I'm dying. Like I'm feeling horrible. I drank a whole bottle that night before I went to bed, got up in the morning, drank a bottle, felt great and went and did my presentation. ⁓ just know in the countless people we've worked with, we've never seen a side effect and negative reaction. Hertzheimer's something we'll talk about a little bit later in the discussion on this, but. ⁓ You know, two table, two teaspoons or two tablespoons is the recommended daily serving. If you feel something coming on, cold, flu, bug or anything, you know, you can double or triple that easily for, you know, a week or two weeks or however your body says to take that and, and know that you're not causing any harm.

Juniper (09:43)

I think it's going to be really It's going to ease up so many people's mind just hearing like, okay, we really can't overdo it. Okay, the next question, can any age person use it in their eye for things like a sty or an allergy?

Doug (09:59)

Yes, and that's one of the differences between your silver and the other silver products on the market is it's an alkaline, whereas all of the other silvers on the product are an acid. So when we think about dropping something in our eye or in some of the sensitive areas on the body, you're not going to get the burning, the stinging or some of those effects that it would be if you were dropping an acidic property. And pink eye diaper rash, ear infections, some of those things like this works great for. And Juniper, you've told me stories about people that you work with that have seen miraculous change in their body based on just trying this in areas. Cause people don't think to spray it up the nose or what is it that's affecting my body. And if we go back to that yeast, bacteria, fungus, mold or virus, let's get it in contact with that so that it can do it.

Juniper (10:53)

Well, and if we break that down further, I mean, I think something that Western and holistic, like across the board, medically speaking, everyone is in agreement that everything stems from one of those, right?

Doug (11:12)

Totally. Well, and so a lot of people don't realize that You you go into a burn unit, they're going to cover you in silver infused bandages. as much as, you well, we can talk about big pharma and the medical system, but as much as they don't like it and demonize it, they're using it.

Juniper (11:33)

Okay, I'm gonna read this question. A friend was just diagnosed with breast cancer. How can Silver help with this? So this is really funny because before we came on this, Doug and I were talking and we just kind of going over this list and he was like, you know, the only one that I want you to cross off is the cancer question because it's really, you know, being in this health space, we're very vulnerable and... I'll let Doug speak on this, but.

Doug (12:04)

cancer HIV and COVID are like

Juniper (12:06)

take this question head on by sharing the pre conversation.

Doug (12:13)

No, cancer, COVID and HIV are like the big three is a health supplement you always want to stay away from. ⁓ But what I'll say to this question is because this is one I've seen a lot is ⁓ silver for immune support and going through therapy if the person's going through therapy. ⁓ The last yes.

To the last question, can SUBR be applied to the, know, topically? ⁓ I'm not gonna make any statement that silver is going to heal or treat or cure that whatsoever. But what I'll say is silver will work in harmony with the body, with the immune system to do what the body needs to do. ⁓ And that's the best that I can answer that. And I'm saying this based on experience, not based on any kind of studies or anything like that.

Juniper (13:11)

Okay. How can one teaspoon be the recommended dose for kids weighing 30 pounds and kids weighing 70 pounds? So this question is based on our bottle rate. have the recommended dosage on the bottle, which I will, I just want to address it upfront is very different than the dosage recommendations that are with the gut rebalance kits. But this particular question is based on the label recommendations.

Doug (13:39)

So it comes to supplement manufacturing and supplement label claims, you have to fall within what the FDA and the guidelines are around label claims per serving. we can't even actually in technically in a health supplement, you can't even use the word dosage because dosage is actually a pharmaceutical term serving is a natural health product or supplement term. So it falls within and there's a lot of non-common sense, I'm gonna say, when it comes to some of this and label claims, but it's the world that we live in and we have to abide to. So it boils down to what regulations say on that. But like you say, intuitively in real world application, you're gonna use more or less. It boils down to legalities.

Juniper (14:34)

Do you need to take it continuously long-term to reap benefits or is it okay to take breaks or use it as needed?

Doug (14:42)

Both you can use as needed, you can use it long term. Like I say, one of the differences between your silver and other silvers on the market. Can we save this question for when we get into the differences of silver? Cause I'll be able to explain it better.

Juniper (14:57)

Yeah, I'm gonna circle it. Is this safe for those who experience die-off symptoms or are very sensitive to supplements?

Doug (15:05)

Yes, the interesting thing with silver as compared to any other vitamin, mineral, herb, botanical or supplement on the market is number one, silver doesn't metabolize in the body. So what that means is when we ingest silver, it doesn't require a command of the digestive system to break it down. So when we think about herbs, when we think about probiotics, for instance, when we think about other supplements that we're taking, They come in orally, they go to the digestive system, the digestive system breaks it down, disperses it through the body and it does what it does. Silver actually bypasses that step because silver isn't needing to be broken down by the digestive system. It's going to circulate throughout the body and target those yeast, those bacteria, those funguses in the mold. So when we've got a really upset stomach or a really bad digestive system, silver is great because it's not going to command any more workload on the body and put any more workload on our immune system? So ask that question again, because I know I'm missing a piece of it.

Juniper (16:08)

That's okay. So is it safe for those who experienced die off symptoms or are very sensitive to supplements? So this. Yeah.

Doug (16:14)

So there will be and there is certain times where people will get some persimer effect and that's rapid yeast die off. It's uncomfortable. It can be a little bit of flu like symptoms. Quite often people will get scared and think, okay, I'm having a negative reaction to this. In fact, you're not. It's actually proving that the product's working and that you needed it. And we've worked with people that think that they're in amazing health, I don't need anything. ⁓ My body's great, my body's clean. And they'll start taking the product and they'll phone me and they'll say, Doug, like, I'm broken out in spots, or I've got, you know, this kind of whatever die off symptom going off or my I've got a headache, or I feel like garbage. And I'm like, great, you know, you in your ultimate health thinking that you're the healthiest, cleanest person still had yeast conditions going on in your body.

So whether it's somebody that's amazingly healthy or somebody that's struggling with their health, my response to them is always, drink lots of water to flush it through the body, But... Like I say, in over 20 years of producing this product, there's never been a reported side effect, never reported concern whatsoever. The only concern that we do face, and it's not a concern, it's just showing that the body needs it, is a little bit of her Alzheimer effect from now on, time to time.

Juniper (17:42)

And I'll speak on the part of this question that is very sensitive to supplements. in supporting the thousands and thousands of families that we've supported with this healing methodology, when someone finds that they are really sensitive to a lot of supplements, this is a histamine issue going on. And so really quickly, can you just speak on how silver helps support that? of our body and our histamine or the way that our body is reacting.

Doug (18:16)

Well, what it's doing is it's supporting the immune system for one, and it's cleansing that yeast, it's cleansing that candida out of the body which is wreaking havoc on the body. know, that yeast and candida, it hides in little places within the body where most supplements have a hard time reaching it. So what we're able to do is with, and we need the hydration, we need to be properly hydrated to get it circulating through the body and finding those little pockets that are reeking and causing that damage. ⁓

Juniper (18:52)

Okay, we're going to move into a new section here, safety and effectiveness. What are, we've briefly touched on this, but let's go deeper. What are the risks of using silver? And later we talk about the different kinds of silver, but maybe we should talk about that now.

Doug (19:12)

We can blend that into one.

Juniper (19:14)

I think so too.

Doug (19:16)

So there's a lot of different silver products on the market. most people have all heard about collodial silver, nano silver, in this case, alkaline structured silver, bionic silver. I'm just trying to think there's so many different ones on the market. the honest truth here is there, other than ionic, ionic is a powder. ⁓ that was used for photo labs back in the day, which started kind of this whole thing. But pretty much all of those products I just talked about are a silver colloid or a colloidal silver, which means it's a single silver particle. And is silver safe? If done correctly, yes. If done incorrectly, no. And we've all seen the blue man and most people don't realize the story behind the blue man is the blue man was creating his own silver, dropping silver coins into a five gallon bucket and using sulfuric acid and a whole bunch of other chemicals to break that silver down and then drinking a gallon of it a day. So of course he's going to turn blue. Like, but big pharma and Oprah got a hold of that and you know, they wanted to demonize silver, but most people don't realize the story behind the blue man.

When we think about blueing of the skin, it's Argeria, and that's when silver molecules can actually get trapped in the fat cells and cause that graying or blueing color of the skin. So the way I like to explain it is we've all seen on Amazon and some of these different places, these silver generators that people can buy for $19.95 and they hook it up to a battery and they get these silver rods and they make silver on their kitchen table. The challenge with that, is and this is where we come up different and how we have done things different. The challenge with that is when you're making silver in a very low energetic frequency, you can't control the size of your particle. So when you look at a standard collodial silver, most if not all of the products on the market will say shape before usage. And they'll see at the bottom of the glass or the bottom of the bottle, silver particles.

There's two problems with that. One, you've got a really large size particle that the body that can't make it through the body. And then two, you're not suspending that silver in water, right? So if you look at your bottle, for instance, Juniper, your bottle doesn't say shape before usage, because your silver particles are under 10 nanometers, which means you can put thousands of silver particles on the tip of this tongue or sorry, tongue, pen. there's, ⁓ energetically bonded within the water molecule. So how we make silver definitely changes the conversation of is it safe or not. And what happens is a lot of people will make these what I call a substandard silver with low energetic frequency not bonding it to the water molecule, large particle, and they'll take that over a period of time. Well, that's a completely substandard way of doing it. Can it work in a health emergency to take it for a couple of days? Yeah, absolutely. If I was trapped and there was something going on in my body and I could whip that up, yeah, I would do it. But you don't want to take it for a considerable amount of time. The other part to it is energetic frequency and particle size mean everything when we get into silver, because we want to get that silver charged to 910 terahertz per molecule have it circulating throughout the body because it creates the same frequency as a blue light in a hospital, which we know kills bad bacteria and yeast and all of these kinds of things. That's why they do it. So you're basically taking and recreating the frequency and the mechanism of action of a blue light throughout the body. The other difference with silver too is because it's working on an energetic and a vibrate like a horizontal vibration frequency. When we think of pathogenic bacteria, when we think of antibiotic resistant bacteria. This is why the medical system has essentially given up on creating new antibiotics because the bacteria has got to a point where they evolve themselves, let's say to a point where they've got a protective barrier around them that antibiotics can't penetrate. Silver isn't burrowing from the outside in like any other substance or antibiotic or herbibotanical.

Silver is attacking it at cellular membrane, taking the energy source, causing it to rupture. So when we look at antibiotic resistant bacteria, we're actually able to be just as successful with that, which is great because people are looking for ways around that. So back to the safety and effectiveness of it. We want to make it correctly. We want to charge it to the proper energetic frequency. We want to bond it to a structured water molecule. And anybody that's done any research on water will realize that there's purified waters and distilled waters. And people can read Dr. Pollock's water on or work on structured water to realize that structured water is a lot more dense. It's more bioavailable. It's a completely different shaped water molecule than a purified or a distilled water. So we're able to get that within the cells of the body and dispersing. you can take like a structured water to purified water, just put it on the back of your hand and see how quick one absorbs versus the other. Does that answer the question or did I just talk a lot?

Juniper (25:02)

No, that's all really incredible. even I know all of this and my brain is spinning. I want to dissect all of those parts even further. let's take this question from the comments really quick.

Doug (25:15)

So if anybody in regards to like nano size particles, anybody can do any research as far as like nano size particles and particle size as to what crosses the blood brain barrier. So that's strictly based on science and getting those particles. We've got a spectrum analysis test that we've done on the silver to show that it is those sizes and I think I've given that to you in the past Juniper to look at. ⁓ So when you get a nano size particle that small with proper hydration, the body is going to cleanse that out over through the urinary tract and through the system over a period of time. That can be, and it all depends on like, I can't say, Hey, it's all going to be gone in 12 hours because if you're not drinking enough water or drinking proper hydration, it can stay longer. ⁓ It can be shorter with proper hydration and exercise as well. But what what we have seen over the years and through different studies is silver leaving the body when done correctly and making a full exit. And back to the other side of it, in 20 years of producing this product, there's never been a reported side effect and never reported graying of the skin or anything like that, which furthermore proves that we've got safety and effectiveness because most products when we think about Concerns and publications around concerns are triggered by consumer reactions. So like I say, I don't know how many millions of people have used this and I mean, used it extensively. I'm just trying to think. I know people that will drink a bottle of this a day for months when they're working on something. If we were going to see the reactions, we would have seen the reactions a long time ago.

Juniper (27:14)

So, okay, I wanna, before we move on to the next question, I want to recap what differentiates cleanse, so our alkaline structured silver from these other forms of silver. So it's the frequency, it's that it's suspended. And can you define what suspended means again really quickly?

Doug (27:41)

means that the silver particle is embedded into the water molecule. It's not sitting outside of the water molecule and it's a structured water molecule. So when we look at that water molecule, it's a tetrahedral in shape as compared to a circular water molecule, which will be a distilled water molecule plus your alkaline where the other silver products are an acid. So when we think about introducing it into the body, we want to get an alkaline property into the body. So it's embraced by the immune system, whereas an acid is rejected. Your silver gel, for instance, is slightly acidic because the delicate biome of the skin wants to be in a slightly acidic state versus what's going in orally, want to get in this slightly alkaline.

Juniper (28:31)

How long do you typically need to be taking it? I feel like that's kind of a vague question.

Doug (28:38)

It's loaded. We see people have a difference in days, some people are longer, it boils down to the individual person, like what are they suffering from? What are they looking to address? What's wreaking havoc on the body? What is their diet and lifestyle look like? And I'm sure you've seen this Juniper is, know, skin concerns, we can normally see a reduction in redness and a reduction in some of the things that are happening topically, very quickly, as well, you know, things like food poisoning and some of those ones that are like quick hits, let's say, we'll see success ⁓ or, you know, change happen very quickly with people, something that's systemic and something that's been wreaking havoc on the body for a longer period of time is going to take a long time. And that's, that's one of the challenges that we all face too in making supplements and in the supplement industry is Dr. Google and Facebook and TikTok have all created this perception that a product has to work in 30 days or a product has to work in 15 days or it's not very good. But in so many cases, people have taken years to deteriorate their body to a point where they're at today, right? and that's through diet, that's through chemicals, that's through personal care products. you know, all of these things are slowly eroding and wreaking havoc on our body. There isn't going to be a miracle cure that you're just going to take a couple sips ups and going to fix everything. In a lot of cases, we are, we have to look at this as this is going to be a three month, two months, three months, four months. It's going to be a process of making change within the body as well as giving the body what the body needs to do naturally right and the other part of it is is people will look at silver or they'll look at another supplement because this is the way that marketing in the industry has told people is saying hey take this fix that right and we live within this take this fix that mentality because that's what marketing and Facebook and all this stuff is done over time and created this perception, but there isn't any supplement, including silver, that's going to heal, treat, cure, or fix what's going on in your body. The only thing that the silver and the supplementation is going to do is give the body what the body needs to heal itself naturally. It's giving the body what it's not getting from food or from where we need it to be coming in. So when we look at... you know, historically we used to get silver through our broccoli, through our different forms of vegetation, through our water, good pure water coming down a river, it has silver particles in it. Whereas now everything's stripped and ripped apart. So we need these supplements to give the body what it needs, but we also have to give the body time it needs to heal.

Juniper (31:46)

I see a lot of questions coming in the chat. So we should jump to those, really quickly, can you like very, ⁓ this actually didn't come up in the questions, but I feel like it's a good time to very lightly jump into the history of silver because this isn't something new.

Doug (32:06)

How deep counter-revolt hole can I go?

Juniper (32:10)

Whatever you've got in like two minutes.

Doug (32:12)

All right, so prior to 1900 in the late 1800s, there was over 100 applications in the physician's desktop reference manual in regards to silver and silver was just like CBD and other products, chemicals that have been used over time, they were predominant in the healthcare system. Then in 1932, the Rockefellers took over the

Juniper (32:29)

Fold these dolls for me.

Doug (32:40)

pharmaceutical system and the healthcare system. And that was when the introduction of petrochemicals came into play. That was when the introduction of ⁓ antibiotics came into play. And at that point, antibiotics could be patented, whereas the Rick Patton ran out in silver in 1912. ⁓ Antibiotics could be patented. They proved to be quicker at killing bacteria than silver was, but we've now, you know, close to a hundred years later, seeing what that's actually done to our health. So prior to the 1930s, silver was an active part of the medical system. Then we've seen since the 1930s up to today, any product, any botanical herb that has proven to be extremely effective has been heavily demonized through the media, through big pharma, because it's a competitor that can't be patented. So that's the quick, honest, down and dirty truth.

Juniper (33:38)

I love that. I mean, it goes it goes way, way, back

Doug (33:40)

It's been used, like there's documentation going back to pretty much every civilization, whether it's Incan, Chinese, Mayan, Egyptian, and just from a common sense standpoint, think for a second, okay, why did the Egyptians throw silver coins into milk baths? Why do we serve silverware? Why do we serve food on silver? trays and serving trays, well, because of the antibacterial and the antimicrobial processes, food lasts longer. So I think that these prior generations are a lot smarter than people give them credit for, but we see, you know, silver and these different substances used all the way through history.

Juniper (34:26)

Thank you. Okay, one other question before we answer the chats. We briefly gone into this, but can you really kind of walk us through what is the silver doing in our body? How is it actually working when we take it?

Doug (34:42)

So when we take the silver and we put it onto our body, let's say in the form of the gel or the soap or into the body, as far as the liquid goes, what silver is doing is it's resonating at a specific energetic frequency. And once again, silver is missing by nature, an electron. So it's constantly looking to give and receive energy to recharge itself. So what it's doing is it's looking for this bacteria, this yeast, this fungus, know, these pathogens to recreate its energetic frequency. So it's giving an electron, stealing an electron, giving an electron. And there's some really good videos I can see if I can find like it's showing and explaining this to you. ⁓ But what it's doing is it's stealing the electrical property from these pathogens which is causing them to die, right? So when we look at skin conditions, we look at acne and we look at, let's just pick on acne for a second, right? And I know you teach a lot of acne and these skin conditions are digestive concerns, right? Starting in the gut and the leaky gut syndrome, but those pathogens, those bacterias are getting trapped in the layers of the skin. So that's a bacteria, right? So what the silver is doing is it's causing it to rupture and then it's helping to heal the surrounding skin by supporting the immune system of the skin by keeping that bad bacteria base so the skin can close up and heal itself. So that's how we look at it working within the body and on the body is going after the foreign invaders that are wreaking havoc on the body.

Juniper (36:29)

And so can you describe the cellular, the structural difference between these bad pathogens and good and how the silver works by only eliminating the bad and leaving the good untouched?

Doug (36:44)

So our good bacteria excretes a lipid fat milk barrier, which the silver hasn't been charged to penetrate through that lipid fat milk barrier.

Juniper (36:54)

And is it, I feel like we've gone into this, that bad pathogens are either single cell or they have an electron and that's what the silver is stealing, right? And

Doug (37:05)

The good, the good is it has a protective barrier around it. And we did studies a number of years ago in one of the university labs in Utah, where we took the seven natural strands of bacteria and introduced silver to them and other forms of silver. And we were able under the high density microscope to see silver rupturing those bacteria and just like I say causing the throughout

Juniper (37:38)

You're talking about like staff and strep. Okay. Very cool. Okay. Let's jump into the chat for just a minute.

Doug (37:41)

correct.

Juniper (37:50)

Uhhhh Okay, are you, are you, do you want me to read them?

Doug (37:57)

Yeah, I'm looking at the Google search. ⁓ Google is going to suppress most information on silver. ⁓ Best place to go is like PubMed or National Institute of Health. And you can find there's over 5000 research papers on silver in PubMed and the National Institute of Health. One thing to consider can keep it in consideration though, is big pharma plays a big role in what gets published in those places. So You have to use your discretion with some of this when you're looking for information, but Google is never going to give you an honest answer on that. We know that Google is completely controlled as far as the outputs that it gives.

Juniper (38:38)

Okay, we have one here. How are you measuring that silver is leaving the body?

Doug (38:43)

There were tests done on that so much of this science and information and studies that have been done, have been suppressed.

Juniper (38:54)

Well, it's really hard. remember when our naturopath sent his home with silver and I had so many questions. And I remember him, he had printed these research articles and he's like, you can take as many of these stacks as you want. He's like, I print them because they're taken down off the internet all the time. Like big pharma does not want this information available. And I wish so badly that I had those stacks. He's retired now and But I wish so badly that I could share the articles that I read from him because that's really where I found so much of my confidence. I hate that part of it when people are like, I wanna read the evidence of this. And I wish that I could give it all to you. But there is still a lot available on PubMD.

Doug (39:43)

One Yeah, yeah, like anything use your own discretion use your own intuition as to any information that you're receiving or reading and always think behind any of your information like what what is what's the bigger picture what's the bigger story behind this or what's somebody trying to prove with this

Juniper (40:10)

Okay, another one in the chat. How do you know the dose someone should be taking? Say you are taking it for eczema and after months there is no change. Does age or body size matter?

Doug (40:24)

⁓ diet, age can matter. What's going on in the body can matter. My sort of typical response is try doubling the serving cause you might be taking too little. And you know, if your immune system compromised, that can also cause it to take longer or not see the effects. So my, my sort of standard answer is always like, whatever you're taking, take twice as much and just be your own doctor, like gauge that and say, okay, that's helping or that's not helping and finding that right blend of what is making the difference. Because if we see, you know, is it eczema that we're talking about?

Juniper (41:10)

in this particular example.

Doug (41:13)

So as we know, a lot of that is coming down to a digestive concern as well. So it's going to be further work on the digestive system also.

Juniper (41:24)

Okay, it's funny, there was a question in here asking about... ⁓ how do you make the solution alkaline? And then this leads into, there was another question here, but it's gone. ⁓ Someone saw particles floating in their bottle of cleanse. so that goes hand in hand.

Doug (41:47)

Yeah, so we use a pH buffer system that we've created for the alkalinity side, which can create same reflections within the light.

Juniper (41:56)

And so the, the alkalinity side, it's basically a sodium bicarbonate and there's different environmental factors. if the silver gets too hot or, another thing that can happen is if your bottle isn't closed properly, it can oxidize over time. And so if you are seeing things in your bottle, that's what it is. It's some kind of environmental something that's happened, right? That has created a chemical reaction where you can see that sodium bicarbonate, which is what makes it the alkaline.

Doug (42:32)

Correct, it's not going to cause any harm. Even if it goes yellow and oxidizes, it's not going to cause any harm. I put it in my animal dish every day and just sitting in the water dish for the pets, it is going to change that watercolor a little yellowish as it oxidizes through the day, but it doesn't create any harm.

Juniper (42:53)

That's what we always tell people. We don't get questions often, but when we do, I am seeing something in the silver. would it always, I mean, I would have been this way if I had seen something floating in the silver that we got from our naturopath. I'd be like, oh my gosh, I can see the silver. But just to clarify, it's not the silver that you are seeing.

Doug (43:14)

Cracked. Cracked.

Juniper (43:16)

And what I, my response is always though, I expect that my silver is clear. And so while I know that it's safe to take, I'll save that one for cleaning or for our, give it to our donkey or our cat. And I just feel better drinking a clear bottle of silver.

Doug (43:35)

if you, so just, just to touch on that too, is, is when the product is produced, the screening, the screening that that product goes through before it reaches the bottle is the finest screening that you can actually run any kind of liquid through. Like you think of cheesecloth, for instance, think of something that's like a hundred times more tightly bound for screening than cheesecloth. So sometimes when the product gets hot, in transportation because normally we'll see these kind of questions come up in the summertime for the reflectiveness that you're seeing. It's actually going to be the bicarbonates that are clumping together a little bit from heat but definitely it's nothing to do with the silver because silver can't clump together for one and the screening that it goes through is so fine that you know almost nothing gets through it.

Juniper (44:30)

And just to clarify, it's this silver that cannot clump together because it's structured.

Doug (44:38)

It's any silver is not going to come together. The particle size of the silver on production is going to be the size of the particle on production. Whether somebody's making one of those collodial silvers that settle to the bottom, it's not going to further clump together.

Juniper (44:52)

Hmm, OK. And I'm going to do a couple more of these questions, then we're going jump back to our paper. where does silver occur most naturally in the environment? You've mentioned water and broccoli.

Doug (45:05)

Yeah, and those were in small amounts. Historically, we would get our minerals, our vitamins and stuff through our foods because it would be pulled in through the soils, right? Just like when we look at water, water coming down a river is going to pick up silver particles off the rocks and start to give us those micro trace amounts of silver. So the challenge is, you know, silver and a lot of trace minerals historically came from our vegetation and our water. Whereas now what we've got is we've got a compromised diet that the, you know, we're not getting anything from our foods. So the thing is to think is we're not getting the nutrients and the micronutrients and these minerals coming into our foods and water anymore because it's so overly processed.

Juniper (46:01)

Okay, we're coming up, we have seven minutes to our hour mark. ⁓ And I really want, I really value all of your time. So I'm gonna try to keep cruising through these. Does silver break down the biofilm surrounding pathogens?

Doug (46:16)

the structured water will help break down the biofilms. So when we look at the mucus membrane and we look at those kinds of things is the structured water actually helps break down the mucus. Just like if you're spraying it into the nose, for instance, the silver will go after the pathogen or the bacteria. The structuring of the water is what creates that cleansing.

Juniper (46:40)

And so this right here just makes me want to pause. This is the really deep intention that has gone behind every single ingredient in every single one of our only products is every single part is really designed to create this very cohesive healing. I've heard silver just suppresses symptoms and doesn't address the root cause. Can you talk about this?

Doug (47:10)

Yeah, I'd like to know where somebody heard that because there's so many I heards out there that are based on nothing but either somebody that thinks they know what they're talking about. And please, whoever wrote that question don't think I'm coming down. It's just, you know, we always hear these I heard or I, you know, so and so said, but they base it based on their own personal presumption rather than any sort of science or fact behind it. So when we look at what we've talked about, up until this point and then we just think about that with a little bit of common sense for a second is and people can do their own research don't take my word for it silver naturally cleanses yeast bacteria fungus mold viruses right so if we've established that in this question it's supporting and helping the immune system but when we look at suppression it's not suppressing through common sense because it's actually combating. What we need to do is we need to look at what's fueling what it's combating, right? So for instance, let's just take candida for a second, right? What fuels candida? white bread, wine, All of these feed candida Right? So if somebody's taking a small amount of silver every day, but drinking two glasses of wine and eating four sandwiches a day, well, they're giving the body, they're giving that candida more fuel and food than the silver can attack, if that makes sense. So we've got to look at it from a suppression versus making progress from common sense saying, Am I feeding my illness or am I feeding what's wreaking havoc on my body to a bigger extent of what I'm trying to do to help heal my body? And if the answer is yes, then you're always going to be in a losing or suppressing battle. Does that make sense?

Juniper (49:16)

Yes, this is for all of you who, for the many people who I know making dietary changes is really hard, but it really just speaks to the importance of no matter what supplement you're taking, it can only do so much. the foods that you eat are either fueling the bad or helping you heal. And when you're really committed to healing your body, it does require you to make some dietary changes and it doesn't have to be forever. But when you are in the thick of trying to heal a symptom, We have to make our choices.

Doug (49:53)

Right. So anything, anything that we put into and onto our body, right, is going to have a positive or a negative effect. So once again, we can't look at the supplement to be the complete saving grace to what's going on in our body. We have to look at those front end choices of what am I eating? What am I using for personal care products? What am I using for, for everything in my life and really truly think of which direction you're going each and every day.

Juniper (50:28)

Okay, we have a couple more here. How long is the shelf life?

Doug (50:33)

On the bottle, it says two years. That's strictly back to a label claim and what has been done for shelf stability testing. But when we look at silver from a point that once again, it eliminates yeast, bacteria, fungus, mold and viruses, it can last on a shelf. We've got silver that's on a shelf for 10 years that still looks like the day it was formulated.

Juniper (50:58)

Okay, is there concern for silver deposits in organs or tissues with long-term use? So we kind of went into this earlier talking about the different kinds of silver.

Doug (51:10)

Yeah, yeah, we basically answered that earlier. If silver is done incorrectly, yes, what you've got and what you're doing, no, and that goes back to history, time of manufacturing, no adverse side effects or anything ever on that product.

Juniper (51:28)

And the creation, mean, the science behind how it's actually created, it physically cannot settle in the body. it's impossible for that silver particle to leave the water molecule.

Doug (51:46)

And it's so small, right? Like we're talking thousands of silver particles on the tip of this pen. It's not big enough particle that's going to get trapped in the fat cells or in the liver or the kidneys.

Juniper (52:01)

Okay, you answered this earlier, but I think it will be helpful to hear as we're wrapping up. there any known long-term side effects or negative impacts on the body? And I'm going to incorporate this with this last message that just came in. Can taking silver and cleansing lead to more symptoms as everything is being pulled out, such as yeast infections, UTIs, eczema? So I feel like those kind of go hand in hand because What's just been listed here, these are not negative side effects, but I wanna hear it in your words. I wanna hear it from you.

Doug (52:38)

Well, usually when we think of side effects as far as yeast infections, UTI, eczema and that kind of thing, that's going to come from an antibiotic because antibiotics are wiping out all of the good bacteria in the body. Antibiotics also fuel and feed Candida. So we've got to look at this through a different lens than what we would look at as an antibiotic, for instance. And we're also going after what's causing the yeast infection, the UTI, the eczema. we did a two year speaking tour to women's clinics throughout the United States. This is prior to 2020. I mean, I've heard every story that you can imagine about the sensitive areas of a woman's body that have been wreaked havoc on from yeast and candida and these things. I mean, just horrible stories of women trapped in their bodies, marriages breaking down, like life just sucks. That's the only way I can say it from that. And what we've been able to see silver do to help clean up that area of the body has been amazing because when we look at the medical system on how it goes after that and doctors in the medical system use the woman's body is a bit of a trial and error, but you've got, know, pH swinging extremely positive, pH streaming extremely negative. And that's the problem that's happening there. And you know, the itching, the burning, and I'm sorry if I'm going a little bit too deep on this, but ⁓ just when we look at that question about the UTIs and the yeast infection, it kind of hits home at me because of what we've seen the change with trapped females in their bodies over the years. So ⁓ are we going to lead to more symptoms? No. Are we going to help you recover your body and get you back to being you? Yeah.

Juniper (54:42)

And so when a lot of, I won't say a lot, but for many families who are healing from really chronic long-term issues, like really bad eczema or topical steroid withdrawal, and they've been at this healing for a while and it gets worse and then it gets better and it gets worse and it gets better. Can we just kind of go into that a little bit?

Doug (55:13)

Yeah, back to sort of how we were asking that question a little while ago is it's really, really conscious to diet, lifestyle, sleep, hydration, stress, like all of those things are going to come into play in how our bodies reacting to things and how our body's able to go through that healing journey. ⁓ So being mindful that we need to look at our healing holistically, know, throughout everything that we're doing to get it, you know, to go over those swings and balances.

Juniper (55:51)

I have one more question on here and I'm gonna take this very last one on here. How is silver not considered a toxic heavy metal

Doug (56:01)

will get afraid of silver, for instance, from a heavy metal standpoint, if they wear jewelry and they get that yellowing around the ring or yellowing around a necklace or that kind of thing and thinking, okay, I'm having a reaction to a heavy metal or silver being, hey, I've got a silver necklace or I've got a silver ring. I'm having a reaction to it because it's causing my skin to go green or yellow. Believe it or not, when we look at 99.999 % pure silver, it's not classified as a heavy metal from a health standpoint or what we're doing here. We have to make sure that it's absolutely pure silver. When we go to jewelry and what kind of gets people scared of silver because of the rings or the, or, know, can show up on the body. It's because that's a very unpierced silver that's mixed with a whole bunch of different metals to make that jewelry, which then is a whole bunch of heavy metals. I hope I answered ⁓

Juniper (57:01)

Well, I like to look at silver more compared to iron than some of the other like toxic heavy metals that you would not want in your body because there are like we all we need iron in our body and silver is safe in our body and it is not classified as a heavy metal when it comes to supplements.

Doug (57:26)

Correct. And when we look at the mechanism of action is like I say, it's eliminating the pathogens back to the yeast bacteria, fungus, mold viruses. It's eliminating those pathogenic bacterias when it's introduced to them, you know, in or on the body or as we've seen through history even been used to serve foods. And there's a reason why when you go to your public swimming pool, the filters that they use to filter the water are silver, silver filters. When we look at NASA's water purification system, it's all running through silver. So anytime that not only in the health service or the health supplement side of things, but we look at cleanliness of bacteria and pathogens in human usage for other products, it's running through silver.

Juniper (58:21)

Well, and I always, think maybe many of you are familiar with Norwex, but that's what makes the Norwex products so incredible is there's fine threads of silver that make the Norwex cloth. Oh, you've got one. It's my favorite.

Doug (58:35)

And there's silver in few sheets nowadays. Silver is slowly starting to make a comeback, let's say, because as people are waking up and realizing that we've been lied to for so long about what actually is good for us and isn't good for us, people are waking up to realize, okay, the more natural I can go, the better I'm to be able to take care of my body and silver is right on top with, you like your natural pathic doctor said, you know, at the very beginning of your relationship, take this silver. You were afraid of it. You didn't know what it was. More natural pathic doctors are waking up to that every day to realize, hey, we got to get more back to the basics. And Silver has kind of been forgotten And that's where, when I go to speak at these conventions and these seminars, it's like trying to wake people up and hit them over the head and saying, you know what? Just because something's not trending, doesn't mean you forget about it. So much of what people take nowadays is driven by marketing and influencers and all this stuff. And most of the time, they don't even know what we're talking about. They just get a good commission for talking about it.

Juniper (59:46)

Well, and that's, I mean, really comes down to why this was really important for me to have this conversation with you is because, as we said at the beginning, not all silver is the same. There is a lot of information out there around silver and people are naturally fearful like I was. And the more we can all learn, the more empowered we are to make the decisions that are right for our family. So I invite you to do your deep, deep research and, and really come back home to yourself and decide by, you know, what really resonates with you. And that is how I healed my child with silver. Being a huge part of that is I had to have my own confidence in it and I had to believe in it. And I had to know with everything in me that it was safe. And actually all the fear is, that's not talked about is, you know, the havoc that these bad pathogens are wreaking inside of our body. that's really what we should, none of us need to be fearful because we have tools like cleanse to heal our bodies. But that's what we should be fearing is the bad pathogens in our bodies and what's happening. And so I... want to thank all of you for coming. I will be turning this into a podcast so that you can come back and listen again if you want. ⁓ I'm just looking here. Doug, how can we refer naturopaths to you?

Doug (1:01:26)

So I would say anybody that you want to refer, refer directly over to Juniper here to use the cleanse and those products. And I will be there behind Juniper to support anybody and that right behind her, however I can.

Juniper (1:01:43)

And we've got you, you can always bring your questions. And the biggest mission behind Only is full transparency and really empowering you with education. So again, you at the end of the day can make the decisions that are best for you based off of education and not fear. Thank all of you so much and I will connect with you soon. Thank you for your time, Doug. We appreciate you.

Doug (1:02:11)

Thank you.

Transformation and Q&A

Transformation: Doing the gut rebalance again. Just started... WHAT ARE THESE

When you look at the image that came with this transformation, you see what looks like clusters of long, flat, reddish-brown ribbons and some darker, twisted strands. They’re tangled together, almost like wilted plant roots or pieces of rubbery seaweed. This is what has come out of this womans body while rebalancing - a mix of liver flukes, other parasites, and intestinal lining that has been shed as her gut is healing.

It’s one thing to talk about parasites abstractly, but when you can picture them (and imagine them living inside your and your child's body) you start to understand why symptoms like cravings for processed foods, bloating, skin rashes, and fatigue happen. These organisms aren’t passive passengers. They’re active. They feed, they release waste, and they communicate with your brain to keep you eating the foods they thrive on

When you start rebalancing and you experience these passing in your or your child’s poop, what you’re seeing is your body doing something incredible - it is releasing what it’s been holding onto for months, maybe years, and sometimes even decades. These flukes, parasites, and bits of intestinal lining didn’t show up overnight. They’ve been slowly accumulating as bad bacteria, yeast, mold, and fungus have weakened your gut lining and disrupted your microbiome.

Your gut wall is like the foundation of your health. When it’s damaged, it can’t protect you the way it should. Toxins slip through, your immune system gets overworked and your body becomes the perfect host for parasites. This is when symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, bloating, skin rashes, hormone imbalance, joint pain, anxiety, and even autoimmune flares can appear.

As you rebalance, Cleanse in the Gut Rebalance Kit targets these bad overgrowths and parasites, while Bind literally binds onto them so your body can easily flush them out through your poop. All the while, Nourish is working to replenish your beneficial bacteria so the good bacteria can take over again, and Remineralize is restoring the vital minerals your body needs for energy, immune strength, and deep cellular repair.

Eliminating the parasites, flukes, intestinal lining and yeast is the healing. This is why when Rebalancing many people see both the old, damaged tissue and the invaders it was harboring finally leave the body. This is your system making space for healthy new tissue, stronger immunity, and a more balanced nervous system.

Question and Answer: My daughter has major sugar cravings. Starting your cleanse soon. Could it be parasites? 

Absolutely, it could be parasites. But it could also be other harmful overgrowths like yeast or bad bacteria. The thing to know is that major sugar cravings are not just about willpower or preference - they are actually a sign that something inside the gut is driving them. Parasites, yeast, fungus, mold and bad bacteria all feed on sugar, and when they’re living in abundance, they send powerful chemical signals to the brain asking for more of it.

This is why cravings can feel so intense and why cutting sugar alone doesn’t solve the problem - because the root cause is still there.

Which is exactly why the Gut Rebalance Kits works so beautifully. They eliminate the bad overgrowths while replenishing the good bacteria so the body can reclaim balance. As the gut heals, those cravings naturally quiet down because the organisms causing them are no longer in control.
