Claims
- 1. A device for treating an illness or infection of tissue of a the upper and lower respiratory tract, the device comprising:
a container holding a predetermined concentration of pure uncompounded aqueous silver colloid substance; and means for delivering appropriately-sized mist droplets of the colloid substance directly to the tissue to maintain a predetermined antimicrobial tissue density concentration of the colloid substance for a predetermined time period.
- 2. The device of claim 1 wherein the droplets of the colloid substance are sized to negotiate the bend of the esophagus and reach the lower respiratory tract and lungs.
- 3. The device of claim 1 wherein the droplets of the colloid substance are sized to coat the nasal passageways.
- 4. A method of infusing an uncompounded silver colloid suspended antimicrobial substance into tissue within the body, the method comprising:
providing a misting device; providing the uncompounded silver colloid suspended antimicrobial substance within the misting device; delivering the colloidal silver suspension in a mist of small droplets directly to the tissue to be treated within the body to obtain a predetermined antimicrobial tissue density concentration; and further redelivering the colloidal silver suspension at predetermined time intervals so as to maintain the antimicrobial tissue density concentration for a predetermined time period.
- 6. The method of claim 4 and further comprising using a nebulizer to achieve the small droplets necessary to reach the lower respiratory tract.
- 7. The method of claim 4 and further comprising a nasal spray bottle to achieve the larger droplets necessary to coat the nasal passage ways.
- 8. The method of claim 6 wherein the predetermined tissue concentration is greater than or equal to ten (≧10) micrograms/ml.
