Plan A Foot-friendly Vacation
Whether hiking the Rocky Mountains or roller-coaster hopping at Walt Disney World, traveling can take its toll on your feet. Painful feet can ruin the pleasures of a great vacation. For an all-around footloose vacation, being prepared is key. Kick up your feet in comfort this vacation season with a bit of preventive advice and a few packing tips from the American Podiatric Medical Association APMA . Ban bare feet.

Colloidal Silver Water For Your Health
Colloidal Silver is a solution containing microscopic particles of pure silver permanently suspended in de-ionized water. The solution inhibits the ability of disease-causing organisms such as bacteria, virus, fungus and parasites from assimilating oxygen. As a consequence, the disease-causing organisms literally suffocate and die. Pure silver has been used for hundreds of years in the prevention and treatment of illness from injury or toxic substance.

Pure Silver has been used as a liner in water canteens since the 100 s. The water held in these canteens stays sweet and clean until consumed. No research has shown that any known disease-causing organism can live in the presence of even minute traces of the chemical element of metallic silver. Benefits may help with the prevention and treatment of illness...
