The Secret to Eternal Youth
What if the proverbial "Fountain of Youth" is not an external thing to ingest or consume, but something that is in our control?
People have searched for ways to extend their lifespan for centuries. Many believed the goblet, later labeled the Holy Grail, that Jesus drank from at the last supper held eternal youth if drank from. An actual fountain of youth in the form of a spring has been referenced from at least 3rd century AD. And of course modern advertisers and marketers claim their product is the answer to erasing the wear and tear of the years and restores the user to the prime of their youth.

Now, if you drink from a pure silver goblet, there are proven healing benefits. Have you heard the term born with a silver spoon in her mouth? The wealthy knew the healing aspects of silver and would give their infants silver spoons to suck on in order to prevent childhood disease in a time of high infant mortality. The wealthy drank from silver cups, used real silverware to eat meals, and kept their water and wine in silver jugs. It is said that is why mostly the poor died during the Plague, as only the wealthy had access to silver.
I was not a believer of the silver hype until I sliced my finger quite deep while preparing a meal. I did not have bandages, and absolutely zero time to wait in the ER, so I cleaned the wound and and my jewelry and slid an inch wide silver ring over most of the gash to keep it closed while I attended to my busy schedule.
Over the next few days I noticed something phenomenal- the part of the gash covered by the silver ring was healing three times as fast as the exposed part! And I was keeping neosporin on the part not under the ring.
And although you know that things like smoking, eating bad, and lack of exercise lowers your lifespan and causes premature aging, by now you have come to realize there is no magic creme or elixir to turn back time within the body.

However, you are not your years on Earth. Age is subjective. Age ain't nothin but a number.
One does not begin to "get old" until they stop being open to new ideas. Once a person becomes closed off to insights and concepts that differ from their own, that is when they allow "old age" to set in.
One only becomes old when they stop learning new things.
Learning should be a lifelong endeavor. The acquiring and absorption of knowledge needs to be a constant thing to keep the neurological pathways forming and activated. When these stop being birthed, it causes a domino effect in the body. When the neuro pathways stop firing and stagnate, more energy stagnates and things get stiff then go unused and pretty soon just won't work anymore. Much like when you leave a car in the barn for a while. When you finally go to take a drive it sputters to start, and you have to make a variety of minor repairs just to get it running again.
Keep your brain, and body, young by remaining open to new ideas! Never stop learning!

My method is far simpler; I misbehave so much that I am not allowed to celebrate birthday anniversaries.
BTW, my holistic doctor had me use Panasilver for my leg wound.
Ah, yes- that is definitely one way to halt the aging process in it's tracks...
My son's boxing coach was given that for a wound as well, from his actual surgeon! And my pharmacist is thorough and well researched in both western and eastern medicine and he swears by the silver gels for wounds and burns.
I am thankful that western medicine is finally allowing the long known benefits of silver.
Western medicine is now just an extension of big pharma money printing machine.
Patience are just cash cows to milk.
(did you see my post on the whole hiv/aids debacle?- ) A 2 hour video, but highlights just how the big pharma companies are basically stealing from the tax payer.

I have seen personally, the decline of a person once given azt medication - when they were perfectly healthy before!
It's a con.
Over... and over.... and over...again.
I truly feel we don't need 80% of what we are told.
(and don't even get me started on vaccines! lol)
I agree. I wrote a post a couple months ago about what I learned about FDA, AMA, and big pharma after getting sick for the first time in my life. THEY almost killed me. I cured MYSELF.
I think most people can , with knowledge of nature.
We seemed to be doing okay for the odd 10,000 years before smith kline and glaxo came along.
(most deaths historically, were malnutrition, not disease)
I have often read and heard there is a cure for everything in nature
Great content and information... I may start to look up for silver utensils because of this post. :) Upvoted!
Great idea!
Thank you :)

Love your way of thinking, actually quite some view in common with my last article... Followed ! :)
Yes it is ( I just checked yours out)
Thanks! And followed back, btw :)
While I don't believe that silver holds curative properties, I do however think that one's longivity is directly related to stress... or lack of - take your pick! You got my u/v anyway! ;)
I definitely side with you on that- you can be the healthiest of people but if you have too much stress- early demise.
Your post up is impressive. Followed @arbitrarykitten
Thank you :)
Why thank you Dory :)
Many will mistake you for son's girlfriend in the photo.
You practice what you preach!
You know, many mistake us like that where ever we go lol!!!
LOL, I thought I am the only one who's crazy!
Loved the article, @arbitrarykitten! What you say is so so true, I've always maintained that age is just a number and I've met plenty of people who've proved me right because they were young in spirit and still enjoyed life and listened to anyone because they knew that you can learn something from anyone.
As to the properties of silver, I too have become an adept quite recently. My cosmetician suggested that I use silver water for my skin and I love it. It does help a lot (would help more if I remembered to use it all the time!).
What do you use silver water for your skin for?
I've had acne problems for many years now and it's antibacterial, it dries and cleans ;)
Oh, yes- perfect! I use it on wounds. I have yet to find a cosmetic use for it for myself, but you have inspired me to do some research!
Actually, my son @juggernaught might find silver useful in that regard...
