    Nanosilver: The New (Old) Kid on the Block

    In this episode of Healing Tomorrow’s Future, Kathy Morris, Director of Operations for MAPS, speaks with Lela Iduna, MD, FACEP, IFMCP, FMAPS, about the history, mechanisms of action, and potential clinical applications of nanosilver. Dr. Iduna explains how silver interacts with pathogens through multiple pathways—including disrupting cell membranes, interfering with cellular metabolism, and inhibiting the formation of biofilms that can allow bacteria, viruses, and fungi to persist despite conventional treatment. Drawing on her experience in emergency and functional medicine, Dr. Iduna discusses the use of silver in patients with chronic infections, including Lyme disease and infections associated with PANS/PANDAS. She also reviews different methods of administration, considerations surrounding product quality and sensitivity, and the current research on safety and effectiveness. Throughout the conversation, she emphasizes the need for clinicians to understand both the underlying mechanisms and the limitations of the available evidence when considering silver as part of an individualized treatment approach. This episode is a must-watch for clinicians treating patients with chronic or recurrent infections, Lyme disease, PANS/PANDAS, biofilm-related illness, or other complex inflammatory conditions. It will be particularly valuable for functional and integrative practitioners seeking a clearer understanding of nanosilver’s potential clinical applications, safety considerations, and place within an individualized, systems-based treatment approach.
