Colloidal Silver – A Natural Antibiotic

For those who may be wondering how to counteract health problems due to a weakened immune or symptoms brought on after an onslaught of chemtrailing, you might care to evaluate the benefits of colloidal silver. There is first a slight critique of the text below, but both contain useful information.


UPDATE: 10 Mar 2013

I was sent this critique by Lloyd of www.shopholistic.co….
Much of the information on there is good and I would recommend that anyone consider having the means to make their own colloidal silver as a backup for emergency situations. However, there are statements on there which are designed to promote their colloidal silver as superior without any scientific backup, also I regard one section as poor information.
You will notice the article talks about their colloidal silver, but in
3 instances it quotes about silvers proven efficacy, it quotes silver ions as being the bio-active part of the silver, which is true. They mention no evidence of how much of their silver is ionic (probably because they do not know). So they are presenting the proven efficacy of silver Ions as the efficacy of their colloidal silver.
Here is an article which explains the point about Ions:- www.rdmag.com/News/2…
Also you will find many patents based on the silver ions being effective in medical equipment and even washing machines!
It is interesting that a few years ago, the main colloidal silver manufacturers were saying how great their product was with small particle sizes and such, with minimal ionic content, now a few years later they are all pretty much saying theirs has minimum particles and maximum ions!
Apart from the ionic content, colloidal silver lacks a delivery mechanism to the body to prevent any ions quickly binding with chlorides in the body. This is why topical application of silver is quite effective but taken internally, huge amounts are required to get enough ions to absorb deep enough to be beneficial.
Bearing this in mind, the following line is poor information:- "Remember, you cannot overdose on Colloidal Silver, and even if you consumed 50 times the recommended amount, it is not wasted, as it will accumulate in the bodily tissues in order to provide further benefits in the future". This is what contributes to argyria, so suggesting theirs does not cause it is totally misleading.
I am sure you will realize why silver100 is the only type of silver we have ever sold and will continue to sell. It not only provides silver in its ionic form, but also has a delivery mechanism to release the silver Ions. For more information please see  www.silver100.com 
Regarding ICSC, although it sounds grand, is clearly affiliated with this company so "CSI has the only approved seal from the ICSC International Colloidal Silver Council" is pretty meaningless.

HISTORY OF COLLOIDAL SILVER

The mineral known as silver has been used for healing purposes and for treating diseases as far back in recorded time as 4000 B.C. Eastern Persian records specifically mention the practice of placing water in silver vessels, and the ancient Babylonian and Greek civilizations were fully aware of silver’s ability to disinfect.

Furthermore, the Romans reported the use of silver compounds for medical treatment. It continued to be used as a remedy during the Middle Ages in order to treat open wounds in battle and the Ayurvedic physicians of India continue to use it to this day. Silverware or a silver coin was kept in the drinking water and the milk in order to prevent spoilage before the days of refrigeration. The early settlers used silver, and many people remember their grandparents placing silver dollars in milk in order to prolong its freshness at room temperature. Members of royalty were called bluebloods due to the silver content in their blood and the blueness of their skin. When eating the royalty used almost exclusively silver plates, bowls and utensils. They essentially digested large particles of silver over an extended period of time, which created a permanent discoloration of the skin, due to the excessive silver deposits. This condition is known today as Argyria.

However, there is no danger of this occurring today, as long as you are using properly prepared Colloidal Silver. (Note: The FDA has approved CSI’s product because it passed all safety and efficacy manufacturing standards.) CSI has the only approved seal from the ICSC International Colloidal Silver Council (Copy upon request)

As recently as the 1930s, silver nitrate was routinely used by American hospitals in the eyes of newborn babies as a protection against blindness in case the mother had contracted a venereal disease, and is still used today in many countries. The March 1978 issue of Science Digest included an article entitled "Silver, Our Mightiest Germ Fighter", in which it stated that more than half of the world’s airlines used silver water filters as the method of choice for protecting passengers from water-born diseases, including British Airways, Lufthansa and Air France. After reviewing 23 different water purification systems, NASA selected a silver-based system for the space shuttle, and Japan uses silver air purifiers. Prior to 1938, (FDA – Food & Drug Act).

Colloidal Silver was administered orally, rectally, vaginally and intravenously, or atomized into the nose, lungs and eyes, as well as topically in the form of throat gargles, eye drops and douches for the treatment of open wounds and burns. For more effective topical use, Colloidal Silver can be mixed with natural vegetable glycerin or aloe vera. Medical research has documented that Colloidal Silver promotes more rapid healing, with less scar tissue in cases involving severe burns.

Successes have been reported even in cases that have previously been unsuccessful by the medical establishment. Contemporary medical tests indicate no known adverse effects from the use of properly prepared Colloidal Silver, and there has never been a recorded case of adverse reactions or interaction with any other medication.

Silver has been employed for over 100 years against infections or infectious diseases. There are currently five different synthetic pharmaceuticals that utilize silver as one of the ingredients. Over 70% of the hospital burn units in the United States use a silver-based cream (Silvadene) as a preventative in order to treat infection in burn patients. This cream is extremely effective, has no known harmful side-effects and is non-irritating.

At the beginning of the 20th century, scientists discovered that the body’s most important fluids (both the blood and lymphatic fluids) are colloidal in nature, as suspended ultra-fine particles. For example, blood transports nutrients and oxygen to the bodily cells. This scientific breakthrough in understanding paved the way towards endless possibilities for medical treatment. Silver was already a proven and accepted germ fighter, and Colloidal Silver became the mainstay in the treatment of infectious diseases. There were varying degrees of success which, we now know, were due to silver particles being too large, thereby never attaining the optimum microscopic size necessary for its effectiveness. Another missing factor was that the silver particles must possess an electrical charge, and the results of many scientific studies and examples of its use were published in prestigious medical journals. In 1924, the first electro-colloidal silver was produced, and it proved to be far superior to what had been previously available, and was considered to be very High Tech at the time. Due to more advanced technical methods of production, today’s Colloidal Silver solutions are far superior than those produced prior to 1938, and at a mere fraction of the cost.

For centuries, the only known method for producing fine silver for human consumption was to grind it into a fine powder, either manually or chemically. The fine silver powder appeared to dissolve in water, however, it did not remain in suspension, and ultimately settled to the bottom of the container. These particles also had the tendency to clump together, but the use of protein stabilizers correct this problem so that the particles settle more slowly. However, they tend to block the effects of the silver particles. One problem with using chemical acids to grind the silver is the difficulty in removing the chemical from the solution, and trace amounts of those chemicals may be toxic to the consumer.

Colloidal Silver was in common use until 1938, and had proven itself to be useful against 650 different infectious diseases, but was very costly to produce at that time.

Today, advanced technology provides us with electro-colloidal solutions that produce even greater results. Unfortunately, the discovery and subsequent widespread use of Penicillin and other synthetic drug pharmaceuticals caused much of the rapid advancement of colloidal research to be set aside in favor of a new, fact-working, less costly, more toxic and potentially dangerous, more profitable industry controlled allopathic medical approach to treating disease.

The Food and Drug Administration currently classifies Colloidal Silver as a pre-1938 drug. A letter from the FDA dated September 13, 1991 states: "These products may continue to be marketed as long as they are advertised and labeled for the same use as in 1938, and as long as they are manufactured in the original manner."

Antibiotics & Resistant Diseases:

Unfortunately, antibiotic-resistant diseases have reached epidemic proportions throughout the world, and the overall effectiveness of synthetic antibiotics is rapidly decreasing. As indicated by the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta, we are informed that over 70,000 people died in American hospitals in the year 2000 from infectious conditions that resisted conventional synthetic drugs. Common bacteria that lead to the onset of pneumonia, ear infections and many other diseases are evolving into forms that are untreatable by known synthetic drugs, thereby threatening to create a chilling post-antibiotic era that would be nothing short of a major medical disaster, according to Alexander Tomasz of Rockefeller University in New York. He states, "In the post-antibiotic world, the simplest infection could rapidly escalate into fatal illnesses."

When a synthetic antibiotic is employed and fails to destroy even one pathogenic microbe (out of trillions), that microbe can reproduce itself and thereby create super microbes, which are constantly evolving into different and more lethal strains. Some microbes can reproduce in as little as twenty minutes. Due to the excessive use of synthetic antibiotics by the medical establishment, strains of super microbe have been created that become immune to destruction by any synthetic antibiotic. Furthermore, penicillin and related synthetic antibiotics produce harmful side-effects which lead to even greater problems, such as nausea, abdominal pain, Candidiasis, etc.

We are becoming immune to the selective synthetic antibiotics produced by the pharmaceutical companies, and the medical community has acknowledged this publicly for many years. On October 23, 1994, the Los Angeles Times published an article entitled "Arsenal of Antibiotics Failing as Resistant Bacteria Develops". The article stated, "But in the last decade, a broad resistance to antibiotics has begun to emerge. And because bacteria can transfer genes among themselves, experts only expect the resistance to grow. The potential nightmare is an Andromeda strain, a super-microbe immune to all antibiotics that could wreck havoc."

In a December 1996 article in Readers Digest entitled, "Warning: Antibiotics Could Endanger Your Child", it is stated that "Antibiotic resistance appeared soon after the introduction of these synthetic drugs in the 1930s. Since then, more and more bacteria have become resistant to more and more antibiotics." The article continues: "Last January, researchers at the Georgetown University School of Medicines Department of Pediatrics monitored 20 children taking amoxicillin daily to prevent ear infections. (Note: Dr. Fallon) The study indicated that while their risk of infection from a resistant germ was 20% before using the antibiotic, after a five-month regimen, they stood a 100% chance of contracting a superbug, a fivefold increase in risk. Four months after those children were taken off amoxicillin, their risk level returned to its original point."

The human body contains approximately .001% silver, and is normally obtained, along with all the other minerals required by the body, through the foods we consume. Organic gardening is called organic because it refers to living organisms in the soil, and there are billions of these organisms in a handful of soil which break down the minerals into a colloidal form that is then assimilated by the plant. After we consume the plants, these colloidal minerals are assimilated directly into the bloodstream and transported to the various bodily organs in order to be properly utilized as nutrients. The minerals in the soil directly control cellular metabolism in humans, animals and plants. In the book entitled "Secrets of the Soil", authors Peter Tompkins and Christopher Bird explain in detail how malnutrition begins with the soil, and how trace minerals are insufficiently available for adequate nourishment because the soil has become so depleted, due to the usage of synthetic chemical poisons and overworked soil conditions. Silver is one such trace mineral that has virtually disappeared from the soil, and deficiencies develop whenever we cannot obtain the quality and quantity of nutrients from the food we eat.

In his book entitled "The Body Electric", Dr. Robert Becker, M.D. states that silver deficiency is responsible for the improper functioning of the immune system. While analyzing hair samples and questioning the parties involved, Dr. Becker noted a correlation between low silver levels in the body and disease. Those who maintained low silver levels were frequently sick, with innumerable colds, flu, fevers and other illnesses. Dr. Becker’s experiments concluded that silver destroys a wide range of pathogenic bacteria without damaging any of the cells of the body, and without any harmful side-effects.

Dr. Becker also states that silver ion (colloidal state) was accomplishing much more than just killing disease-causing organisms. It was also accelerating major growth stimulation in injured tissues. When exposed to silver, human fibroblast cells (which are able to multiply at an increased rate) then differentiate into the specialized cells of the organ or tissue-system that has been injured or damaged even in patients over fifty years old. Furthermore, Dr. Becker discovered that cancer cells would transform back to normal cells in the presence of the silver ion, regardless of their location in the body. He therefore concluded that Colloidal Silver will regenerate damaged, old or worn out cellular tissue, eliminate cancerous cells, and any other diseased or abnormal condition.

He also observed that those patients with higher than average levels of silver ion present in their bodies, who suffered from severe burns, were able to more quickly regenerate the burn-damaged tissue, without the occurrence of scar tissue or any overload to their immune system. Moreover, Colloidal Silver is especially well suited for use against many types of disease-producing organisms simultaneously, even the strains of pathogens and fungi that are highly resistant to synthetic antibiotics. Fantastic successes have been documented in many cases that were previously considered to be hopeless. Residue silver in the body more than doubles the capability of the immune system to destroy cancer cells and other disease-causing organisms, and the friendly bacteria in the intestines (the intestinal flora) are not adversely affected.

Uses of Colloidal Silver

While studying the regeneration of limbs, spinal cords and organs in the late 1970s, Robert O. Becker, M.D., author of "The Body Electric", discovered that silver ions promote bone growth and destroy any surrounding pathogenic bacteria.

Extensive tests have been conducted with Colloidal Silver on a variety of pathogenic organisms, and the following results indicate that Colloidal Silver is a broad-spec anti-microbial agent. Tests included the following organisms:

E. coli, Food poisoning, ordinary tract infections, travelers diarrhea, infantile diarrhea, respiratory tract infections. Inhibited and destroyed at 2.5 ppm.

Enterobacter cloace Produces illnesses similar to the E. aerogenes. Inhibited and destroyed at 5 ppm.

Klebsiella pneumoniae, Nosocomial infections (those spread through hospitals), lower respiratory tract infections, bacteremia, and urinary tract and wound infections. Inhibited and destroyed at 2.5 ppm.

Klebsiella oxytoca, Produces illnesses similar to those infectious conditions caused by K. pneumoniae. Inhibited and destroyed at 2.5 ppm.

Pseudomonas aerugio\nosa, Keratitis, pneumonia, meningitis, severe burn and wound infections, nosocomial infections, urinary tract infections, etc. Inhibited at 2.5 ppm and destroyed at 5 ppm.

Streptococcus pyogenes, Skin infections, upper respiratory infections (such as strep throat), impetigo, scarlet fever, hospital-acquired infections, etc. Inhibited and destroyed at 1.25 ppm.

Streptococcus faecalis, Urinary tract infections, endocarditis, wound infections, etc. Inhibited at 2.5 ppm and destroyed at 5 ppm.

Streptococcus mutans, A major cause of dental plaque and tooth decay, Inhibited and destroyed at 5 ppm.

Streptococcus gordonii, Tooth decay, and also implicated in infective endocarditis (an infection of the heart valves). Inhibited and destroyed at 5 ppm.

Various medical journals have also documented the uses of Colloidal Silver against the following pathogenic organisms: Anthrax bacilli, B. coli, B. coli communis, B. dysenteria, B. tuberculosis, Gonococcus, Paramecium, Pneumococci, Straphyloclysin, Straphiococcus pyogens albus, Straphiococcus pyogens aureus, Tinea versicolor, Vortic Aspergillus niger, Bacillus typhosus, Bovine Rotavirus, Candida albicans, Legionella pneumophilia, Poliovirus l1 (Sabin Strain), Salmonella, Vegetative B. cereus spores and Spore-Forming Bacteria.

The following is a documented list of silver-resistant bacteria:

Citrobacter freundii Enterobacter cloacae Enterobacteriaceae (some strains) Escherichia coli (some strains) Klebsiella pneumoniae (some strains), P. stutzeri (some strains) Vegetative B. cereus spores (some strains)

Based upon his experience in treating various types of bacterial lung infections, Dr. Victor Marcial-Vega, a board-certified oncologist and the Director of Health Horizons Rejunvenation Clinic in Coral Gables, Florida, believes he has discovered a method of preventing the anthrax bacilli from developing in the human body, even if one has already been exposed. During his last ten years of treating hundreds of clients with a variety of viral, fungal and bacterial pneumonias, he has personally observed the greatest successes with nebulizer treatments using a Colloidal Silver preparation. The nebulizer allows the mineral to reach the lungs and kill any harmful bacteria and, with the recent anthrax threat, he believes that it can accomplish the same results with anthrax spores.

Dr. Marcial-Vega states, "We are continually filtering all types of bacteria through our lungs." For the prevention of anthrax infection, he recommends a daily nebulizer treatment employing 4cc of Colloidal Silver. By following this protocol, he says that your body can most likely destroy the anthrax spores before you are even aware that you are exposed. Colloidal Silver may even be useful in the treatment of cutaneous anthrax when the preparation is applied directly to the affected area.

Dr. Marcial-Vega states that there are no concerns about using this type of treatment because Colloidal Silver has no toxicity and no adverse side-effects. He has used this form of treatment on infants, the elderly, and AIDS patients with pneumonia, and has seen great results. All have responded quickly to the treatment even when no other approach appeared to help, and no one reported any adverse reactions. Nebulizers are widely employed in the treatment of asthma, and are readily available at retail stores nationwide. Each member of the family should have their own mask, and both adult and pediatric sizes are available as well. However, the entire family can share the nebulizer and the tubing.

A Cure for AIDS?

In 1991, an obscure but crucial discovery was made at the Biochemistry Unit of Upjohn Laboratories. In the September 10, 1991 issue of Biochemistry, it states: "Among a number of metal ions tested, ZN2+ (zinc), Cn2+ (copper), and Ag1+ (silver) were discovered to be the most effective inhibitors of rennin and the HIV protease (data not shown). Kenectic analysis revealed that inhibition of rennin by Ag1+ (silver) is basically identical with that observed with Zn2+ (zinc), in other words concompetitive, with respect to the metal."

Further testing at Upjohn, including a clinical trial, revealed that zinc was toxic in effective dosages. This was the first reporting to be made that silver is a high effective protease inhibitor, and over the following years, this same discovery would be made several times. According to the Daily Herald newspaper in Provo, Utah, a full-time member of the administrative staff at Brigham Young University’s physical plant, a researcher looking for patterns and answers to problems by crossing the boundaries of different disciplines such as physics and medicine, states he has determined that Colloidal Silver solutions will kill the AIDS virus without harming the human body. He had the solution tested at two different labs, and the results showed that the solution destroyed a variety of pathogens, including the HIV virus.

A year later, this same discovery was made at the University Medical Center in Geneva, Switzerland, according to the December 30, 1992 issue of Biochemical and Biophysics Research Communications, stating that the metal-binding proteins are important components of retroviruses such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Therefore, metals could be used as anti-viral agents. Silver is a highly active bacterial metal with little toxicity for humans. Silver has also been shown to be a potent inhibitor of HIV protease. Three years later, Temple University in Philadelphia made this same discovery independently of the other discoveries, as stated by Professor Earl E. Henderson, Ph.D. He states:

"We tested the ability of biotic silver protein to inhibit human immuno-deficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) replication in the human T-cell line, SupT1, as measured by syncytia formation. We found that pure silver protein inhibited HIV1, replication in SupT 1 cells as measured by a reduction in the appearance of syncytia in cell culture. There appeared to be little, if any, acute toxicity associated with the dose of biotic silver protein which inhibited HIV-1 replication." These results are very encouraging and suggest additional experiments that could be done.

The following March 20, 1995, Professor Henderson released the findings of another experiment at Temple University:

"My laboratory has studied the effects of a special formulation of biotic silver protein on human immuno-deficiency virus Type 1 (HIV-1) survival, and on latency reactivation of HIV-1 in the human lymphoblastoid B cell line, M57-3 ¦ The results of the experiment show that exposure of HIV-1 to 1000 ppm of a special formula of silver protein for one hour at 37 degrees Centigrade completely eliminates infectious HIV-1 as measured by syncytia formation on SupT 1 cells".

Colloidal Silver can be added to plant water in order to prevent the formation of mold or fungi and various other harmful organisms. It can also be added to the soil or sprayed directly on fruits or vegetables, such as avocados and bananas, in order to prevent them from developing brown discoloration, molds, mildew or plant rot. Colloidal Silver is also effective against canine parovirus and other veterinary uses. It can also be used to purify water by adding one ounce to a gallon of water shake well, then wait six minutes, and shake again, then wait another six minutes — drink.

If you begin to experience any cold or flu-like symptoms, simply begin taking Colloidal Silver, initially tripling the dosage for three days, and then follow the normal regimen. Once you have used Colloidal Silver for a certain length of time, your body will become less susceptible to colds or influenza. If you develop any aches or sluggishness around 3 to 4 days after using Colloidal Silver, you are merely experiencing a cleansing reaction or "healing crisis" while the body is dislodging and expelling stored toxins through the various organs of elimination (including the pores of the skin). This condition is temporary, and its severity can be significantly reduced by ingesting additional quantities of purified water.

There are many topical uses for which Colloidal Silver may be employed, including: Open cuts, sores, wounds, abrasions, razor nicks, scrapes, scratches, skin rashes, warts, poison oak & ivy. Apply directly to acne, pimples, moles, insect bites and stings, toothaches, itchy or irritated skin. Spray in shoes and between the toes in order to prevent athletes foot. Apply as an underarm deodorant, as most underarm odor is caused by bacteria being released by the sweat glands. Spray any surfaces that may harbor Salmonella, E. coli, etc. Swab air ducts, heating vents or air conditioner filters in order to prevent breeding sites for germs. Spray in garbage cans, on kitchen sponges, inside refrigerators in order to prevent noxious odors. Apply to toilets, shower stalls, Jacuzzis, or bath & shower mats. Add to final laundry rinse in order to prevent damp towels/diapers from mildew odor. Add to dishwater, cleaning and mopping solutions. Sterilize water sources while traveling or camping. Add to flower vases, potted plants, pet water or birdbaths.

Product Quality Control

Many brands of Colloidal Silver are inferior in terms of quality and effectiveness. The most advantageous and highest quality grade of Colloidal Silver is produced by an electro-colloidal, non-chemical procedure utilizing the electric-arc technique whereby the silver particles and distilled water are colloided, in other words, dispersed within and bound to one another by an electric current. This method allows for the concentration of Colloidal Silver to be measured in parts per million (PPM). The super-fine silver particles are suspended indefinitely in demineralized water.

The ideal color of Colloidal Silver is golden yellow, and darker colors usually indicates the presence of larger silver particles that tend to accumulate at the bottom of the container, and are therefore not true colloids. The best way in which to ascertain whether the product is true Colloidal Silver is by reviewing the ingredients. If the product contains a stabilizer or other additives or lists any trace elements other than silver, or if it needs to be shaken, then it is inferior. Refrigeration may indicate that the product may contain an ingredient (additive) that might spoil at room temperature. Long-term stability is an important quality associated with Colloidal Silver.

Both the container and dropper must be glass, as plastic or other containers will not preserve the silver in liquid suspension for any length of time. There is an inherent electrical charge in the hydro-carbon molecule of plastic containers which in turn, draws the silver out of solution, thereby binding it to the walls of the container. Some products containing high concentration of silver do not necessarily destroy germs any more effectively than the safe range of from 3 to 5 parts per million.

NOTE About our TRUE Colloidal Silver Bottles:

Dear Carol,

I would like to respond to your email regarding the use of our plastic bottle in the manufacturing of our "Silver Colloidal" product. Most colloidal silver experts agree that the bottle for packaging and any dropper that may be used must be made of glass. Generally speaking, this is true and for the most part is a safe rule of thumb being that all plastics are not created equal. Plastics generally have a hydrocarbon molecule that can chemically react with the silver particles causing the silver to follow out of solution, as well as low quality plastics are very porous allowing the silver particles to be absorbed directly into the plastic. The biggest problem with glass is that it is much more breakable than plastic, and can be a problem during shipping. It is also be somewhat porous. With these things in mind we did extensive testing on a special neoprene type plastic bottle provided by Industrial Container in Salt Lake City, UT. Tests were performed by Dr. G Lyn Kimball of Kimball Laboratories and Kyle Schick of Western Analysis Inc. What was found was that this special plastic is much denser than glass and will not absorb the silver particles. Also because it is a different material than most plastics, it does not have the same chemical reaction with the silver that a typical plastic will have. Other plastics should not be used to store any true colloidal silver product.

Sincerely,
Reed Bales Vice President of Sales
Silver Colloidal Inc.

Dosage and Administration

The human body is a complex system that may prevent certain levels or concentration of Colloidal Silver from reaching the affected area. Since Colloidal Silver can only destroy pathogenic organisms when it is in contact with them for a sufficient period of time, then the amount of the dosage must be higher in terms of concentration in order to be successful.

One teaspoonful of a 5 parts-per-million (PPM) solution of Colloidal Silver is equal to about 25 micrograms (mcg.) of silver. Anywhere from 1 to 4 teaspoonful (25 to 100 mcg.) per day is generally considered to be nutritional dose, and is reported to be safe to use for extended periods of time. Amounts higher than this are therapeutic doses, and should be used only periodically.

Natural health practitioners have usually recommended one tablespoonful daily for 4 days in order to establish a level, and then one teaspoonful daily for maintenance (proportional to body weight for children). After six weeks, a pause of several weeks has also been suggested by some doctors.

In cases involving an illness or sudden exposure to a harmful organism (such as anthrax spores), natural health practitioners have often recommended taking double (or even triple) the nutritional dose for anywhere from 30 to 45 days in order to provide general protection, and then reducing it to a smaller maintenance dose. In acute conditions, amounts ingested have ranged anywhere from 1 to 32 ounces per day. When taken orally, solutions of Colloidal Silver is absorbed directly from the mouth into the bloodstream, and then is transported rapidly to the cells of the body. Holding or swishing the solution under the tongue for approximately 30 seconds before swallowing may result in quicker absorption, and the silver may accumulate in the bodily tissues in sufficient amounts within 3 to 4 days in order for benefits to occur. In order for it to reach the lower digestive tract, add one teaspoonful of Colloidal Silver to 16 ounces of distilled water, and drink this for 5 days. Colloidal Silver is eliminated by the kidneys, bowels and lymphatic system after several weeks.

It is also important to consume several glasses of water each day when using Colloidal Silver in order to purge the body of toxins. However, if your body is extremely ill or toxic, do not attempt to cleanse the body too rapidly. If pathogens are destroyed too quickly, then the body’s five eliminatory channels (the liver, kidneys, lungs, bowels and skin) may become temporarily overloaded, resulting in a "healing crisis" condition (commonly referred to as feeling worse before feeling better syndrome) that includes symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, nausea, extreme fatigue, aching muscles and other flu-like conditions. If this occurs, then reduce your intake of Colloidal Silver while increasing the amount of distilled water. In addition, regular bowel movements are necessary in order to relieve the discomforts of the detoxification process.

Incidentally, Colloidal Silver is completely safe for children, and many have used the solution either orally, or topically in the eyes and ears of small infants with no adverse reactions. Remember, you cannot overdose on Colloidal Silver, and even if you consumed 50 times the recommended amount, it is not wasted, as it will accumulate in the bodily tissues in order to provide further benefits in the future. One accepted method is to consume a 32 ounce bottle monthly in any convenient increments anytime during the month.

Our Colloidal Silver is manufactured by a true electro-colloidal process that is completely free of any additives, stabilizers or proteins, and utilizes the most current and up-to-date methods available.
