Colloidal Silver Basics

Our Approach    Colloidal silver has been attracting a lot of attention lately. It has been reputed by various studies to be able to kill over 650 micro-organisms! It has been reported to be effective in fighting against: acne, AIDS, allergies, arthritis, athlete’s foot, boils, burns, candida, cystitis, diabetes, eczema, hay fever, indigestion, parasitic infections, […]

The three types of products that consumers find labeled as “colloidal silver” can be categorized as follows: 1. Ionic Silver 2. Silver Protein 3. True Colloidal Silver 1. Ionic Silver Solutions    The vast majority of products labeled and sold as colloidal silver fall into this category due to the low degree of manufacturing complexity […]

   The term true colloidal silver was coined by the Colloidal Science Laboratory (CSL) during the 1990’s to describe a silver colloid whose silver content consisted mostly of silver nanoparticles vs. silver ions.  To qualify as true colloidal silver the concentration of silver in the form of nanoparticles must be a majority of the total silver […]

(This article is in relationship to people that take colloidal silver internally.  We believe there may be some benefits to internal use.  However, we do not recommend it since it is very important to do so correctly.  Since the possible for error is so great for the average person, we leave that choice to others.  […]

The Search    We have researched for a long to develop a colloidal silver skin lotion to compliment our essential oil Skin Infection Defense.  We are very pleased with the Skin Infection Defense.  It was also a result of much experimentation and is extremely effective in killing all bacterial infections – including MRSA.  The only […]

What is the shelf life of the Mesocolloids? 6. Storage: plastic vs. glass bottles 7. How is “total silver” concentration determined? 8. What is the highest concentration of ionic silver that […]

   (Some of this information repeats parts of our other articles.  However, the misinformation on the web about ionic silver is pretty strong.  There are some external benefits to it, but the internal chemical reactions render it ineffective.  Thus, it can discredit legitimate studies on true colloidal silver, so we include this information.) What is ionic silver? Many […]

Is there a reason behind using silver in “silverware” or any truth to why our grandparents would add a silver dollar to the milk to keep it from spoiling? Let’s take a look at the facts! For thousands of years, silver has been used as a healing and anti-bacterial agent by civilizations throughout the world. […]

There are many claims being made about which type of the different forms of colloidal silver is best.  We discuss these types in the Types of Colloidal Silver article.  However, we thought it would be good to explain the primary quality of silver that gives it the health benefits being promoted.  This may help you understand and sort through […]

Colloidal Silver is a field of nutrition that is loaded with hucksters and wrong science that misleads people.  Colloidal silver in proper form can do wonders.  In the wrong form, it is close to useless, thus the variance in clinical studies.  No matter what, if you use colloidal silver, you want it to work!  In […]
