Calling all Colloidal Silver users

[RodNTN]

We use it

I found the Alternative Medicine part of this article interesting:

Thanks for that one.

Back when the bubonic plague hit Europe, the upper class, Kings & Queens, survived the plague and it was later discovered the upper class survived because they were ingesting silver particles through the silverware and silver cups they were using.

That isn't true at all. Poor serfs were hit much harder because of their crowded unsanitary living conditions but to the extent nobility was exposed, they contracted it and died just the same. Silver offered no protection then and there are no studies today proving its efficacy for internal use.

Well, that's what we were told in grad school.

Whoever told you that is completely wrong and it's very disappointing to hear that you received that kind of misinformation in any school, let alone a graduate program.

They use it now in hospitals for wound care. They have it on the dressings

Exactly right and you'll never ever see it used in a hospital as something to be taken orally because that's medical quackery.

I cannot speak for colloidal silver, but I have used non-colloidal silver personally, with my patients and pets for 6 years with amazing results. Let me also preface this by saying I did not read the entire link you provided; because when I got to the part where it said "no medical studies have been done on silver" I was instantly turned off. That is inaccurate; there have been plenty of studies done in the antibiotic and antimicrobial benefits of silver! In fact, it is used by hospitals in the sterilization of surgical tools.

The science behind silver is it starves bacteria and virus cells of oxygen, therefore they cannot reproduce. Back when the bubonic plague hit Europe, the upper class, Kings & Queens, survived the plague and it was later discovered the upper class survived because they were ingesting silver particles through the silverware and silver cups they were using.

I am a chiropractor and naturopath. I use and sell a product called Smart Silver by the company Desbio (Deseret Biologics). It is a non-colloidal silver, which is different because of the way it is manufactured. There are no negative effects with a non-colloidal silver. You cannot turn blue and you cannot die from it. You won't get heavy metal toxicity from it. I (and my patients) take it orally to treat and prevent sickness, and can be used topically for healing cuts and burns. It is only available through health care professionals. I think their website can only be used by healthcare professionals as well, so here is a copy of the product description from their website: "Smart Silver is an engineered nanoparticle, not a colloidal silver. It is manufactured using 10,000 volts of current, energizing the entire waterbase, enabling Smart Silver to work as a catalyst to kill bacteria as it draws energy from its environment and emits energy at wavelengths that are measured at 890 to 910 terahertz. This is the same frequency at which germicidal ultraviolet light resonates and is deadly to bacteria. Therefore, Smart Silver, due to the patented revolutionary process of its manufacture, does not deal with bacteria on merely a chemical level, as do colloidal silvers, but also works on a measurable energetic level. Liquid is is 10 ppm and gel is 24 ppm."

If I have time this evening I will try to link some studies to this thread. Feel free to ask me any questions; hopefully I will be able to answer them!

I am still reading this post.
Thanks! I haven't sat still long enough to soak it all in yet.

I love this word: quackery!
