MD Cause: Bacterial or viral infection of the eye.

MD Rx: Antibiotic eye-drops.

ND Cause: Bacterial or viral infection of the eye.

Discussion: Whenever there is an infection anywhere in the body you MUST consider the possibility that the immune system is weak. The MDs never look at this angle. They just pump the patient full of antibiotics in ever-increasing amounts. If this strategy fails, they just give stronger antibiotics. So, when a naturopathic doctor is helping someone overcome an infection, we ALWAYS give immune-strengthening stuff along with “kill the bug” stuff. As far as Anti-microbial “kill the bug” activity goes, there is no non-drug product that even comes close to the effectiveness of 

Argentyn-23: This product is next-generation colloidal silver (the actual chemical term for Argentyn 23 is “Silver Hydrosol.” It is a step above a colloid in its architecture). It has been proven to be 35 times as effective as Vancomycin in treating strep infections. It is my FIRST GO-TO product when I am helping someone recover from an infection. It can be used both topically and internally.

My Rx: In addition to the 90 EN:

• Argentyn 23: Mix ½ teaspoon with ½ teaspoon water in an eye-cup. Place the eye-cup over the infected eye and make a good seal. Tilt the head back so the silver washes over the eyelid, then open and close the eye rapidly for 30-60 seconds. Repeat every 3 hours while awake.

• Good Herbs Antimicrobial Support: 1 teaspoon 3 times daily until the infection is gone.
