			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are excited to share news from our first full year of operations: over 2000 bottles of Love Silver Sol were given to people fighting infectious conditions in 2009.</p>
<p>A total of 46 cases of Love Silver Sol were sent to Ghana, Nepal, Mexico, Zimbabwe, and other locations. These 2300 bottles will help impoverished people combat infectious conditions like leprosy and malaria.</p>
<p>The largest partner charity involved in 2009&#8217;s effort was <a href="http://www.globalmissionpartners.org">Global Mission Partners</a>, an Oklahoma-based not-for-profit corporation serving persons who have little or no access to health care and adequate housing.</p>
<p>We are optimistic that 2010 will provide even more amazing results.  With the help of a rapidly growing body of partners like you, we are confident that next year&#8217;s charitable impact will be even larger!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are pleased to introduce a new partner in the international charitable distribution of silver sol: Global Mission Partners.</p>
<p>As you may already know, Muvezi Health Projects Society, a registered Canadian charity, provides Love Silver Sol free of charge to mission hospitals and partner charities with every purchase of Guardian Silver.  Full details of this program are available at <a href="http://www.guardiansilversol.com/charity/">http://www.guardiansilversol.com/charity/</a> and <a href="http://www.muvezi.org">http://www.muvezi.org/</a>.</p>
<div id="attachment_842" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 266px"><img class="size-full wp-image-842" title="Dr. Bryan Frank" src="http://www.muvezi.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/who1.jpg" alt="Dr. Bryan Frank" width="256" height="192" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Dr. Bryan Frank</p></div>
<p>Global Mission Partners (GMP) is a 501-(c)-3 Oklahoma not-for-profit corporation serving persons who have little or no access to health care and adequate housing. Since 1999, GMP medical mission teams have partnered with other organizations to lead hundreds of volunteers to provide medical, surgical and dental services and health education for over 20,000 patients. Teams have served in Nepal, India, Ecuador, Kenya, Mexico, Haiti, and Russia.</p>
<p>The new flow of Love Silver Sol will be a welcome addition to those served by GMP.  With each purchase of Guardian Silver Sol, customers can now choose to directly support GMP’s work in India, Kenya, Nepal, and Latin America.</p>
<p>Global Mission Partners was founded and is led by Dr. Bryan L. Frank, an Anesthesiology/Pain Medicine/Medical Acupuncture specialist. Dr. Frank has directed or participated in over 100 medical missions and global missions to redeveloping areas over the last 25 years.  In his “regular” life, Dr. Frank is a widely recognized teacher at national and international medical symposia. He has served as President (1999-2001) of the American Academy of Medical Acupuncture (AAMA) and as President (2004-2006) of the International Council of Medical Acupuncture and Related Techniques (ICMART).  He as been a Senior Instructor for the UCLA Medical School’s Medical Acupuncture for Physicians Program, has taught at the University of Miami, McMaster University, and the Harvard Medical School Acupuncture programs, and has authored or co-authored numerous medical articles, chapters, texts, and atlases.</p>
<p>In addition, Dr. Frank is an ordained Pastor in Oklahoma. It is from this background that Dr. Frank takes seriously the gospel call to “go into all the world” and heal.  The prominent footer of the GMP website quotes Matthew 25:36, “For … I was sick and you took care of me.”  Dr. Frank has accepted the call to go beyond, not out of, the practice of medicine and into the healing ministry.</p>

<p>We sincerely wish our new partners at Global Mission Partners continued success as we work together to provide hope to those in desperate need!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>New research published in the Journal of the Science of Healing Outcomes (Volume 1.4, July 2009) shows the effect of Silver Sol on wound healing, MRSA, and stem cell activation.</p>
<p>&#8220;This is an anti-microbial breakthrough,&#8221; says Dr. Brian Carpenter of Edmonton, Alberta.</p>
<p>Silver Sol is a <a title="Silver Sol" href="http://www.muvezi.org/love-silver-sol/">new anti-microbial technology</a> patented in 2006 (US Patent #<a title="US Patent" href="http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&amp;Sect2=HITOFF&amp;d=PALL&amp;p=1&amp;u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.htm&amp;r=1&amp;f=G&amp;l=50&amp;s1=7,135,195.PN.&amp;OS=PN/7,135,195&amp;RS=PN/7,135,195">7,135,195</a>) that has been shown to be effective against numerous pathogens, including anti-biotic resistant bacteria and yeast. It has also been shown to inactivate viruses at the DNA/RNA level through magnetic resonance, preventing virus replication.  Silver Sol has also been approved by the FDA for treating burns and wounds and by the EPA as a hospital disinfectant.</p>
<p>The new peer-reviewed article by Dr. Gordon Pedersen and Keith Moeller explores several case studies involving &#8220;complicated&#8221; wounds and infections. Photographs show wound healing progress over time. Remarkable highlights include the closure of MRSA (methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus) infected wounds, the stimulation of stem cells, and an 88 year old woman&#8217;s recovery from a third-degree burn.</p>
<p>The full article, along with many photographs, is available here:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><a title="Silver Sol Improves Wound Healing - Case Studies in the Use of Silver Sol in Closing Wounds" href="http://www.muvezi.org/Pedersen-Silver-Sol-Wound-Healing-MRSA.pdf" target="_self">Silver Sol Improves Wound Healing: Case Studies in the Use of Silver Sol in Closing Wounds (Including MRSA), Preventing Infection, Inflammation, and Activiting Stem Cells<br />
</a></strong><a title="Silver Sol Improves Wound Healing - Case Studies in the Use of Silver Sol in Closing Wounds" href="http://www.muvezi.org/Pedersen-Silver-Sol-Wound-Healing-MRSA.pdf" target="_self"> by Gordon Pedersen and Keith Moeller</a></p>
<h2><strong>Excerpt from the Article Abstract:</strong></h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">&#8220;Wound healing is a complex and fragile process, which can be complicated by infection and inflammation. In this study, multiple cases are reviewed pictorially for the purpose of recording improved wound healing using the antimicrobial Silver Sol gel. The daily use of Silver Sol gel results in reduced infection (including MRSA), which leads to less inflammation. By reducing the inflammation and infection wounds close faster and with less scaring. This remarkable review of the healing process strongly suggests that Silver Sol gel helps disinfect the wound, prevents further infection, helps reduce inflammation and stimulates stem cells which results in improved wound healing characterized by reduced inflammation, improved angiogenesis, faster phagocytosis and reduced scarring.&#8221;</p>
<h2><strong>Article Summary:</strong></h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">&#8220;The observations of these cases suggest that Silver Sol enhances healing outcomes through the following actions:</p>
<ol style="padding-left: 30px;">
<li>Destroys MRSA in human subjects.</li>
<li>Improves wound healing in ongoing serious HA-MRSA wounds.</li>
<li>Improves wound healing in serious third degree burns.</li>
<li>Controls infection in open wounds.</li>
<li>Improves wound healing times and reduces scarring in a serious laceration.</li>
<li>Silver Sol keeps the wound moist allowing greater cellular migration across the wound thus accelerating the closure of a wound and reduction of scarring.</li>
<li>Stem cell activation is present, as observed in the center of the wound (beyond the wound margins) where re-epithelialization produced improved healing. It is remarkable to have a serious autoimmune wound heal so quickly and may be due to the reduction in inflammation and improved immune function modulated through the use of Silver Sol gel.</li>
<li>Stem cell activation and production must have occurred as seen in the after photo which clearly illustrates discoloration of the scar but leaves no adverse scarring, pulling or adhesions on the surface of the wound. This is remarkable since most wounds of this nature would have required skin grafting to close the wound.</li>
</ol>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Silver Sol helps control unwanted bacteria, viruses and fungi which removes much of the workload from the immune system. This allows the immune components to perform their very specialized tasks without opposition while preventing secondary infection resulting in faster wound healing, with less scarring.&#8221;</p>
<h2><strong>Silver Sol Availability<br />
</strong></h2>
<p>Silver Sol is available at <a title="Guardian Silver Sol" href="http://www.guardiansilversol.com">GuardianSilverSol.com</a>, along with supplementary informational resources.  Silver Sol liquid can be used as a spray for topical application in place of the gel.</p>
