Dangerous and Irresponsible..., 2007-02-03
Colloidal silver is a poisonous substance that has been deemed dangerous and unsafe for medical use by the Food and Drug Administration and numerous other agencies.
This book is not only ridiculous, it is dangerous. In addition to the severe health risks to those taking colloidal silver, Farber is spreading misinformation that could lead to increases in unsafe sexual and other behaviors that put people at serious risk.
Please note that the only accolades for this book come from his brother, and desperate, misguided people who are in need of real medical assistance. Turning your skin grey is only the beginning of the troubles these individuals will suffer if they follow the advice in this poorly written, error-prone book.

My internist and my neurologist encourage me to continue , 2005-06-01
Reading Paul Farber's book The Micro Silver Bullet and my subsequent correspondence with Arnie Farber have contributed considerably to my gaining control over my chronic borreliosis (Lyme disease) by means of colloidal silver.
The scientific explanation of the effect of colloidal silver is clear. There are many sensitive reasons why this effect has not yet been scientifically demonstrated. In spite of this I decided to start treatment with colloidal silver after a year of taking antibiotics had had no effect. From the moment I started taking colloidal silver I have been steadily gaining control over the borrelia bacterium. I have never again felt as ill as I did immediately after completing the treatment with antibiotics. My health has gradually improved and my strength is increasing. My internist and my neurologist encourage me to continue treatment with colloidal silver. I have now been taking it for two years. The quality of my life is high. I owe a great deal to Paul Farber's crusade against Lyme disease and to the care of his brother Arnie.

Dr. Farber was right!, 2002-07-20
I owe my good health today to MSP. In 1994 I became ill with what I thought was the flu, turned out to be Lyme disease. It never got better. I lost my ability to work, I was a court reporter, because I never knew how I would feel from one day to the next. I slept 15 to 20 hours a day, fevers, joints became so painful I had to use a cane. This lasted for a year. Took antibiotics but then felt even worse, because of the Candidiasis. Someone gave me an 800 number for MSP. I had nothing to lose. I figured I would end up in a wheelchair. I ordered a bottle, and the book. I was not too impressed with the book, I must say. It wandered a bit. Before I started the MSP, I insisted on speaking with Dr. Farber. He called me and described my symptoms and exactly what I could expect. Within in four days I noticed a difference. My fever broke. I did not need to sleep all day. Within two weeks I was able to walk without problems. I was off antibiotics. Within three months, I was able to lift weights, do everything I had before my illness. Dr. Farber saved my life. I was saddened to hear of his passing. If you have Lyme disease, you must try MSP. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. I call it my miracle, and there are so few these days.

Truly a miracle substance, 2002-06-30
Suppose there was a substance that you could buy for a few dollars a pint, or make in your home for a few cents a gallon, that kills every known bacteria and virus ever discovered. Suppose that you and your family would never have to have a cold or flu again, or ever worry about more serious or fatal pathogens such as the AIDS, Ebola and Hanta viruses. Suppose this substance not only was completely non-toxic at any level, but also no pathogen could ever become resistant to it, unlike antibiotics. This substance exists, and is called colloidal silver.What percentage of the world's economy is related in some way to health-care? What percentage of the health-care business is related to "treating" (not necessarily curing) viral and bacterial infections? What percentage of the drug companies business involves drugs that "treat" such infections? Since colloidal silver cannot be patented and is completely effective against viruses and bacteria, it represents an extreme threat to a significant portion of the world's economy. Any wonder very few people have ever heard of it? It is a documented fact that the medical establishment has attempted, so far unsuccessfully, to get colloidal silver banned. You would also expect there to be vicious attacks on this substance by the health care "powers that be". You can observe this for yourself by reading a couple of the reviews posted here. I note that one individual posting such a vicious attack on this book also has posted other such reviews regarding other works on colloidal silver. Gee, I wonder why? By the way, I personally consider anyone that deliberately attempts to suppress knowledge that would significantly ease pain, suffering and death in this world to be pure evil, and subject to unimaginable consequences for their souls. If these "skeptics" were scientifically competent, they could go into a laboratory and observe under a microscope the effect of colloidal silver on any pathogen they choose to test.
Is this book perfect? Nope. However, the value of any work that documents the effectiveness of this miracle substance cannot be measured. The author discusses his own cure from the results of advanced Lyme disease that resulted in his paralysis from the chest down. After all "establishment" treatment failed, colloidal silver cured him completely.
I have personally done research on colloidal silver for years, and can attest to its miraculous qualities. I have not had a cold or flu since I started using CS (when symptoms start appearing, gargle with CS and use it as a nasal spray until all symptoms quickly disappear). I also was able to eliminate warts I had had for twenty years that no "establishment" treatment was successful against. It is the real deal.

Any value lost in welter of off-topic nonsense, 2002-02-25
I would have rated this book with no stars if it were at all possible. If there is any value in this book, it is OVERWHELMED by the huge amount of completely off-topic filler that seems to take up the GREAT majority of this book. The reader is dragged endlessly through discussions of the author's religous beliefs, (having no bearing on the topic) trite feel-good sayings, (again, having nothing to do with the subject) pictures of endless friends, acquitances, and "associates", (again having nothing...) strange leaps of faith that are to substitute for science in his statements on how silver colloids work, and other frustrating side trips. ...
It is unfortunate that what content which MIGHT have had some validity (instead, see Robert O. Becker's "The Body Electric" and "Cross Currents" for an excellent discussion of some of the uses of silver colloids in medicine - such as healing of bone infections, etc., and Ronald J. Gibbs "Silver Colloids, Do They Work" for a reasoned and easy to understand discussion) is so completely lost in this wreck of a book. (Not to mention that it is simply hard to read because of confusing page numbering, bad indexing, frequently changing typeface, etc.)
My remaining concern is that this author, presenting himself to be widely educated in his field, cites his multiple degrees. Unfortunately, four of these degrees come from the "Clayton College of Health, Birmingham, AL", a well known "degree mill" without any valid, recognized accreditation of any sort. (See John Bear and Mariah Bear's "Bear's Guide to Earning Degrees by Distance Learning" or check into the website (...) You will find that Clayton College's accreditation comes from two bogus accreditors, one, an individual who is a graduate of Clayton, the other a health food store. NO Clayton naturopath graduates are licensed to practice in any state where it is legal for naturopaths to practice, and there are no correctly accredited colleges who would accept credits or a degree from Clayton for transfer to their school. Employers with adequate resources to check on the validity of a degree would not accept a Clayton degree either. In addition to his four degrees from Clayton, his chiropractic degree is from Cleveland College of Chiropractic which is a college with an at best questionable history. Cleveland College has been sued successfully on at least two occasions by current and former students for its inadequacy in teaching necessary subjects and its failure to provide clinical practice sessions for the students to learn hands on chiropratic by practicing on real patients. As a result of this failure on Cleveland's part its' graduate's rate of passing of state licensing exams is poor - proof of their inadequate preparation by the college - which again casts strong doubt on another one of Paul Farber's degrees.
Becase of these questionable degrees, the fact that the author claims himself to be an expert based on these degrees, and the other problems with this book, I have to say that your money and time are much better spent elsewhere.
