What is Colloidal Silver?

 Colloidal Silver is a pure, all natural substance consisting of distilled water and submicroscopic clusters of the mineral silver. Colloidal Silver is manufactured by a non-chemical process where the microscopic of silver are held in suspension by an electromagnetic charge placed on each particle.

What does Colloidal Silver do?

 Many studies seem to reflect that Colloidal Silver may work as a broad-spectrum antibiotic. While most antibiotics are effective against about a half-dozen disease causing organisms (germs, bacteria, fungi, parasites and some viruses), silver is believed effective against over 650 organisms. Colloidal Silver is tasteless, non-toxic to living tissue and can be taken orally or applied externally.

Is Colloidal Silver safe to take?

The Environmental Protection Agency’s Control Center reports no toxicity listing for Colloidal Silver; these reports seem to reflect that it is considering it harmless in any concentration. Other studies and information seem to show that Colloidal Silver is the safest and best all around natural antibiotic germ-fighter we have.

What is colloid?

A colloid is a substance that consists of ultra-fine particles that do not dissolve but remain in suspension. These ultra-fine particles are larger than most molecules but so small they cannot be seen by the naked eye. In a true colloid of silver, the ideal size of the Colloidal Silver particles falls within the range of 0.0005 – 0.015 microns in diameter. Their particles are electrically charged to activate the germicidal quality of the Colloidal Silver and allow the particles to remain suspended in water.

How does this Colloidal Silver Generator make colloidal silver?

Most generators utilize an electrolysis process that allows extremely fine Colloidal Silver particles to be suspended in solution by the tiny charge placed on the particles. This method replaces the need for any chemicals; stabilizers or proteins and the product can be called a true Colloidal Silver.

Does particle size matter?

Particle size is a crucial factor. Much of the efficiency of the solution depends on the actual size and uniformity of Colloidal Silver particles.
Particles that are too large are less effective. The preferred particle size for optimum results and safety of use should be from 0.005 – 0.015 microns in diameter.

What about the color of the final product?

An excellent indicator of the quality of Colloidal Silver is the color. As the size of each silver particle gets larger, the color of the solution ranges from yellow to brown to red to gray and black. Colloidal Silver that is produced using the proper electrolysis method is a different color than the grind or chemically produced colloids, except in the case of some products that contain artificial food coloring to get the right color. The ideal form of Colloidal Silver is a clear to light yellow color, which in part has to do with using ionized water in the production of the Colloidal Silver. Various experiments show that using ionized water may produce the smallest Colloidal Silver particles.

Are the higher parts per million like 500 ppm more beneficial

Many studies seem to reflect that in the range of 3 –24 ppm (parts per million), Colloidal Silver has little effect on ‘friendly’ bacteria, while being highly useful against infections and eliminating various microbes, viruses and fungi. Colloidal Silver that is too concentrated (above 24 ppm) may upset the delicate bacteria. There are claims that Colloidal Silver solutions in the 100ppm range are beneficial for many skin conditions.

What are some modern uses for Colloidal Silver?

Colloidal Silver may be taken orally or put on a Band-Aid and applied directly to cuts, scrapes, open sores, warts or used as a rinse for acne, eczemas and other skin irritations. It may be gargled, dropped into eyes or ears, used vaginally, anally, atomized or inhaled into the nose or lungs. The best thing to do is to experiment and try different methods and uses.

How does silver naturally get into the body?

We get minerals in the body through the food we eat. It gets in the food through living soil where living organisms in healthy soil, (of which there are billions in a handful of dirt) break down the soil so plants are provided minerals are transferred in our digestive tract, where our bodies utilize the captured organic (chelated) minerals, through the blood stream to the various organs of our body. Hence, we get silver from plant. If we cannot assimilate silver for some reason or as the tissues age, we develop a deficiency and an impaired immune system may lead to cancer in some cases.

How much Colloidal Silver should a person take per day?

Many people experiment with taking from one or two teaspoons to one to two tablespoons each day. You may even experiment with larger doses if you have a cold or such. We cannot over stress the important of consulting a licensed medical practitioner. Much information seems to report that adults take one teaspoon 3 times a day for four to seven days, then cut to about one-half teaspoon 2 times. Children or babies would use a proportionally smaller dose may require more or less Colloidal Silver.

Are there any know side effects from using Colloidal Silver?

There is no recorded side effect in medical literature from the use of Colloidal Silver. Additionally there has never been a recorded case of a drug  interaction. It is non-addicting, the body does not build up a tolerance to it, and studies seem to show that Colloidal Silver is not deposited under the skin like other compounds that may cause gray skin.

If it’s so great people ask why they have never heard of Colloidal Silver?

Seventy years ago, Colloidal Silver was widely used. Colloidal Silver retailed about USD. 100.00 per ounce in 1930’s. Recent technology has brought the price down so that Colloidal Silver can now compete in the marketplace. Numerous articles in medical journals of Colloidal Silver can be found dating usually before 1940. New articles and data will soon be appearing as more doctors rediscover this safe and effectives mineral solution. New information is already appearing on the Institute Of Physics Publishing.

Do I still need to visit my family doctor if I use Colloidal Silver?

 If your conditions look serious or being to look serious, if they persist or worsen, please visit and consult your family doctor. In no way does Colloidal Silver even remotely mean to imply that this product or any alternative methods will or can replace your family doctor.

How long has silver been used as a germ fighter?

Royalty carried water in silver vessels in the belief that this water would help them maintain their health. Farmer’s used silver containers to store milk to maintain freshness. It was the primary antibiotic used by the wealthy before the advent of penicillin in 1938.

So what diseases will colloidal silver display benefits for?

Bacteria and virus are known to be killed by silver suspended in a liquid of nanoparticle size called colloidal silver. In addition to the bacterial growths like Staph. aureaus, E. coli, E. hirae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa mentioned by Curad and Maynard, yeast, fungus and virus have all died in tests using colloidal silver. So is yeast infection a yeast? Yes. Is ringworm a fungus? Yes. Is acne caused by bacteria? Yes. Is sinusitis caused by a bacteria infection? Yes. Is silver used in infants eyes? Yes. Is silver used for burn victims? Yes. Is colloidal silver an immune system support? Yes. Will colloidal silver be the answer for bird flu? Is bird flu a virus?

Does Silver Cause Heavy Metal poisoning?

The claim that silver can cause toxic nephropathy or heavy metal poisoning is being made by both pseudo-scientists and the uniformed news media. The statement shows a complete lack of even the most basic scientific knowledge about silver. Toxic nephropathy is defined as “Any functional or
morphologic change in the kidney produced by an ingested, injected, inhaled, or absorbed drug, chemical, or biologic agent.” Probably the most  correct and widely accepted authority on the subject would be the MERCK Manual Of Diagnosis And Treatment. The 17th edition of the manual, on page 1880, shows the complete list of heavy metals that can cause heavy metal poisoning. The list includes a number of metals like copper and iron that are found in everyday vitamins, but silver is not listed in any form. It was not accidentally forgotten from the list, and it was not listed in the comprehensive list because it does not cause the problem! Listed under “Methemoglobin formers” the Merck does list sodium nitrite as a cause of nephropathy, the importance of this being that if silver is mixed with heavy
salt or sodium products, it could be classified as causing nephropathy, not because of the silver, but because of the heavy amount of salt contained in the matrix of the combined product. The heavy use of silver nitrate in the medical industry (both past and present) may have led people to the common, but incorrect misconception about silver.

Has The U.S. EPA Established An RfD Or Oral Daily Silver Intake Limit?

In 1991 the EPA issued an oral intake limit for daily use on silver to be 0.005 mg/kg/day (EPA RED Document pg.2). That means that according to the EPA guidelines for silver ingestion, an average size adult could safely consume the equivalent of one ounce daily of a 10 ppm silver product and not
exceed the EPA established daily intake limit. On page two of the EPA RED document it states, “EPA does not anticipate that dietary exposure to these low levels of silver will be associated with any significant degree of risk”.

Can Oral Silver Consumption Cause Cancer?

It has been suggested by numerous pseudo-scientists that the long term use of silver can cause cancer in some form or another. The statement is false. The EPA IRIS (Integrated Risk Information System) Report on Silver states under the first paragraph listed under section 11.A.2., “No evidence of cancer in
humans has been reported despite frequent therapeutic use of the compound (silver) over the years”. Again under section 11.A.4. it states, “Further support for the lack of silver’s ability to induce or promote cancer stems from the finding that, despite long standing and frequent therapeutic usage in humans, there are no reports of cancer associated with silver”.

Can Silver Cause Cells To Mutate?

On page 9 of the EPA IRIS Report it states, ''No evidence of the mutagenicity of silver was shown in two available studies''

The European Commission Has Determaned The Oral Supplement Use Of Silver To Be Safe?

The European Commission, Health & Consumer Protection Directorate- General, Opinion listed under Directorate B - Scientific Health Opinions, on the use of silver in medical devices, beverages, and supplements, issued their opinion on June 27th 2000 after a comprehensive study of the subject. The
opinion is stated in their conclusion on page eight. The opinion states, “According to Annex IV of Directive 94/36, Silver (E. 174) can be used
quantum satis to color both food and beverages, and the metal can also be ingested in the form of dietary supplements sold in “health-food” shops”. In other words they found that silver metal was safe for oral ingestion as a upplement!
