Leading The Way

The Management of American Biotech Labs has felt a great sense of responsibility to help people care for their families.  Our products empower parents with a first line of defense that they can have and use at home, when and where the need arises, instead of always having to depend on someone else.  We also seek to empower families with knowledge, so that they know what to do and how to do it.  Freedom to choose safe and effective alternatives is a wonderful thing. 

Another goal of American Biotech Labs is to not only produce the very best products on the market, but to also produce products that are affordable for both individuals and families.  By selling its silver products at prices that families can actually afford, American Biotech Labs has been able to effect a price reduction across the entire market, to the benefit of all families, no matter which product or company they choose to use. 

American Biotech Labs has also lead the way in testing their products.  ABL Management sees this as the most important benefit we can bring to the market place.  By creating volumes of independent documentation on our products, our competitors will be forced to do the same with their products, at least to some extent.  In turn this will cause a very valuable market-wide expansion of knowledge, which American Biotech Labs’ management feels will be more beneficial to everyone.  It will raise the credibility of the entire market sector, which has been very poor in the past.  The time will soon come when consumers will demand real data, before they use a product. 

American Biotech Labs is in the forefront of silver research, having completed over 110 major studies (twelve independent safety studies) on their products and the technology behind them.  American Biotech Labs has also led the way in product design and information. 

American Biotech Labs saw a need for an extra-strength product that could be used really sick and under a doctors care.  American Biotech Labs created a product just for doctors to fill that need, and now other companies have followed suit.  American Biotech Labs then saw a need to update people nationwide on the advances the company has been making in testing, etc., so almost two years ago the company created a news letter to make sure the knowledge was transferred to people who used the product.  Recently our competitors have started doing the same thing.  The Management of American Biotech Labs is hopeful that its competitors will now feel obligated to actually have their products tested by independent, professional, third-party laboratories before they sell them.   If they will do so, we believe this expansion of research and knowledge will lead to the betterment of the entire market place..

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. There are so many silver products on the market today, how do I tell which ones are good and which ones are not?

A. Look and ask for real (independent) test data.  This data should include such things as independent safety reports, efficacy reports, government approvals that prove efficacy, and endorsements from people of expertise that have no ownership in the Company, etc.  No family should ever use a product unless it has at least been proven safe to use [look for in-vivo (living) tests that prove non-toxicity].  Just because some person says that a product is non-toxic or beneficial, does not mean that it is.

For example:

Safety Studies

American Biotech Labs has had twelve independent safety studies completed on their products, including: in-vivo (living) studies at up to 200 times the normal adult dosage; injected and ingested studies at levels of up to 5000 milligrams per kilograms of body weight, using not only the regular 10 ppm supplement, but also independent studies using the ASAP-AGX-32^® product.  American Biotech Labs also has cellular studies showing that the product (even at extra-strength levels) is non toxic to human cells. All seven safety studies have shown that the American Biotech Labs’ products are completely non-toxic at the levels at which they are recommended for use.

Effectiveness Studies, Approvals And Testimony

American Biotech Labs currently has over 110 studies that have been completed on its products and its effect in laboratory settings.  These studies include thousands of antimicrobial tests at numerous international, governmental, major university and also private laboratories.  An antibiotic comparison study on ASAP Solution^® has been released in an international peer-reviewed paper.   There have also been four different independent human studies completed,  including one involving 124 patients from a number of hospitals and clinics in West Africa.  Numerous other studies have been conducted on ABL products which have not yet been released (some are currently in peer review).

 American Biotech Labs currently has three different EPA approvals for use as a disinfectant, a homeopathic drug approval from the country of Ghana West Africa, and a number of other approvals that are currently pending.  American Biotech Labs’ products were found to be so effective that one of the managing directors of the company was invited to testify before a U.S. Congressional Committee.  Also submitted to the Committee were numerous pages of data, which is included in the appendix of the congressional testimony.  Also included in the appendices were personal reports on the products’ use from a number of independent people, including a renowned cancer doctor, one of the top material scientists in the world, a three-star military general (he served as Surgeon General of the U.S. Air force, now retired and working with Homeland Security), and also one of the highest-ranking U.S. Senators.  Credibility on this level has to be earned over extended periods of time.

Q. What do I watch out for? Some companies always tout particle size. What does particle size have to do with it all?

A. A company with little real scientific standing will try to confuse potential clients with useless data that is very general in nature, and that in reality has nothing to do with the use of  their product.  Often this data sounds quite impressive.  But this data is many times just copied or quoted from some doctor or scientist who did work on old silver products in the early or middle 1900's.  Big red flags should go up if a company just touts particle size and/or whether or not the product is colloidal or ionic.  The argument of particle size is just a useless theory that states that smaller is somehow better.   Focusing on particle size is just a smokescreen for the fact that these companies have no real or reliable data to talk about.  Those companies who have real data, talk about it.  Those who do not, often just argue about particle size.  Unless you can back it with real data, particle size means nothing. 

The real question is not which product has the smallest particle size, but rather which company has been able to engineer their particle size to be optimal (the most effective or broad spectrum) while keeping in mind that the amount of silver used has to be low enough to be safe for everyday family consumption.  It is true that if a particle is too large it is of little use.  It is also true that if a particle is too small it becomes ionic and much less useful, because ionic silver can be influenced or bound up by too many other chemical relationships in the body. 

The fact remains that particle size is only important if the product actually works, and the only way to know if a product actually works is to have reliable, independent test data that proves it.  Any good company which has reliable, independent test data should be able to show it to you upon request.  The test data should include test time periods (how long it took to work), how much was used in the test (the quantity used to get the results) and how strong the silver content was (what ppm levels were used).  It is also important to look for the name of the independent lab that did the work.  Very few companies have any test data at all, not even in-vivo (living) safety data.  The little information that is available from these companies and given out or shown to potential clients, is many times completed by their own in-house laboratories where they can make up any data they want.  Good test work will have the name of a quality or reputable lab associated with it.  Look for a signed copy..

Q. A number of companies have come out with some sort of claim that their products are better then yours. Why don’t you come out with comparison studies showing that your product is actually better?

A. There are many parts to this answer.  The first part is that we believe that these comparisons are just more smoke and mirrors put out by low-budget companies because they have no real data of their own.  Because we have volumes of independent data, they think that if they can just claim that their product is better or more effective than ours, it gives them credibility of some sort. 

We have looked at a number of sites on the internet and we found them to be highly inaccurate.  One even had supposed pictures of how our product stacked up against theirs.  The pictures had no data, no test times, unknown silver concentrations, and no indication that the work was completed at an independent lab.  It was obvious that it had been created by their own in-house laboratory in the back room, where they can skew the data any way they choose.   

Another site that claimed to be an independent one had comparisons of many different products, and stated that our product was actually not metallic but something like 80% ionic.  With a little more investigation we found that the site was not an independent one as it purported to be, but rather a misleading site to promote its company’s own product.  American Biotech Labs has data from the number-one materials research institute in the world on our engineered silver nano-particle product.  We have an extensive understanding of information about our silver products and have filed hundreds of pages of patents to cover them so that they cannot be duplicated by anyone else.  We believe that small-time companies will continue to take shots at American Biotech Labs because when your product stands out alone at the top of the heap, there will always be wishful people taking shots at you in an attempt to try and make themselves look better. 

The second part of the answer is that there are thousands of silver products out there and  more trying to get into the market every day.  We could waste our time trying to identify them all and then prove that we are better than each and every one of them, but why do this?  It seems to us that our time and money is better spent working on solving problems, finding new answers, and creating new products with our technology so that we can end more human suffering.  Because we have human case studies that have been completed using our products, we know about how much of our product is needed, to be used at what time intervals, in order to boost the human immune system to solve certain problems.  We will continue to work with international labs, joint venture partners, and government groups, etc. to increase that knowledge so that we can help more people worldwide.

Q. Does Silver Biotics harm the helpful bacteria in our intestines?

A. We have entered an era in which future products sold in the dietary supplement market will have to be proven safe for their intended usage. Selling untested and unproven products, as has been done in the past, will not be accepted.

American Biotech Labs has always done a significant amount of analysis and testing on its products prior to marketing them, and has an overwhelming amount of data available to customers that supports the efficacy and safety of their products.

There have been several noteworthy results from tests that have been run on ABL’s products.

First, the company’s products were tested in vivo (tests conducted in a living organism) at up to 200 times the normal adult dosage and found completely nontoxic. Additional in vivo tests later completed included both injected and ingested tests at silver levels of up to 5000 milligrams per kilogram of body weight. Again, all products tested were found to be nontoxic.

Second, a new study (called cyto-toxicity tests) concluded that the American Biotech Labs’ (ABL) products will not harm or kill human cells. In these tests, the ABL products, even at extra strength levels, showed no negative effect on either human epithelial cells or Vero (African green monkey) cells.

Third, a study tested ABL’s products against four different strains of “friendly” or probiotic bacteria from two different manufacturers. Probiotic bacteria are the useful bacteria that help in food digestion. These bacteria are often killed by regular prescription antibiotics. In the probiotic tests the ABL products, even at extra strength levels, did not hurt or damage the probiotic bacteria in any way. An additional study at a major U.S. university rechecked the theory that the ABL products would not harm friendly or probiotic bacteria. As in the first study, this second study concluded that at the levels at which the products are being used, no negative effect on the probiotic bacteria is resulting.

SEQ CHAPTER \h \r 1The US government has also issued safety data on consumed silver products. The standard for the amount of silver that can be safely consumed daily in water was established by the United States EPA. The EPA established the Reference Dose (RfD) or daily intake limit, in 1991. It established the amount of silver that can be taken daily at .005 milligrams per kilogram of body weight per day (EPA RED document page 2, 4th paragraph). This means that a normal sized adult could consume one ounce (6 tsp) of the company’s 10 PPM silver product every day, for a 72 year life span and still be within the safe limits as defined by the EPA. In the EPA RED document for silver, the EPA goes on to state (3rd page, 4th paragraph), “The EPA does not anticipate that dietary exposure to these low levels of silver, will be associated with any significant degree of risk.”

Q. Where do you see American Biotech Labs going in the next few years?

A. We have several new products that will be introduced to the markets this year, and even more next year.  A number of doctors and scientists have already been using and testing these new products, and we are very confident that these items will be widely accepted in many new markets worldwide.  We have a number of major studies that will be released in the next two years, some of which will be released in peer-reviewed journals.  We have signed a number of joint ventures with specialized partners and formed several new companies.  One of the new companies has been formed and organized to develop products for humanitarian aid worldwide.  The human studies completed on ABL products have proven that we can make a difference in the lives of many people.

American Biotech Labs believes that by working with strong partners, the com can do a great deal of good for humanity and help end some causes of suffering for third-world children.  Humanitarian work is very important to us, and in connection with that, we have already been active by donating product to doctors who are caring for refugees.  We have also been working with doctors in Africa, and also missionary and government groups in South America and Asia.   We have also supported U.S. doctors by donating our extra-strength product, which has been used right here in the U.S. to help hurricane victims.   American Biotech Labs’ management believes that by doing good, the company will continue to do exceedingly well.  ABL intends to pursue a course which will offer major health benefits throughout the world and create a healthier life for mankind.
