Be careful of the hype regarding colloidal silver. Contrary to some of the
information, it can be toxic and the letter of approval that it received
from the FDA has been withdrawn (but many sellers are still quoting the
original letter). Much of it is being sold through multilevel marketing
schemes.

> Methods
> Injection or ingestions of colloidal silver
> Injection of an anthelmintic (Tramisol*) at day 1,3,7,14,21
> Double dose of Panacure for 5 days
> Garlic C in the feed.
