Questions & Answers

What Is It?

Colloidal Silver is a pure all-natural substance consisting of sub-microscopic clusters of silver, held in suspension of pure ionized water by a tiny electric charge placed on each particle.

What does it do?

Colloidal Silver is a powerful, natural antibiotic. It is the most usable form and the most effective disease, germ, virus and fungal killers known. It has been found to be both a remedy and a prevention for colds, flu, all infections and all fermentation due to any bacteria, fungus or virus, especially staph. and strep. which are often found in diseased conditions. It has been reported to rapidly subdue inflammation and promote faster healing. The body needs Colloidal Silver to fight disease causing organisms and to aid healing. Taken daily, Colloidal Silver provides a second immune system resulting in more energy, vitality, vigor, relaxation, faster healing and reduced bodily toxins. An artificial antibiotic kills, on an average, 6 different disease organisms, but Colloidal Silver is known to kill over 650 diseases without any known harmful side effects or toxicity.

Silver in our bodies?

We get silver and all minerals in our bodies through the food we eat. This comes directly from organic soil. This soil is rich in living organisms. These organisms break down the soil so plants are provided minerals in a form assimilable to the plant. Hence, we get silver naturally from the minerals present in organically grown plants. If we eat plants that have been grown on chemical fertilizers, as most plants are grown today, without living organisms in the soil to help provide nutrition to the plant, we do not get the quantity of vitamins and minerals which are available in organically grown foods. Deficiencies develop. As the tissues age, or if we cannot assimilate silver for some reason, we develop a silver deficiency and an impained immune system that can lead to cancer and other diseases. Some suspect a silver deficiency is possibly one of the main reasons cancer exists and is increasing at such a rapid rate today. Dr. Robert Becker noticed a correlation between low silver levels and sickness. People who had low silver levels were frequently sick, had innumerable colds, flu, fevers and other sicknesses. He said a silver deficiency was the reason for the improper functioning of the immune system. He found that silver works on a wide range of bacteria, without any side effect or damage to the body cells and can stimulate major growth of injured tissues.

Why silver?

Silver has benefitted mankind’s health for thousands of years. In ancient Greece and Rome, people used silver containers to keep liquids fresh. American settlers travelling across the West often put a silver dollar in milk to delay its spoiling. Around the turn of the century, doctors prescribed silver nitrate for stomach ulcers and it has been a common practice to put a few drops of a silver solution in newborn babies’ eyes to kill bacteria that causes blindness. A silver compound known as silver sulfadiazine has been used in 70 per cent of the burn centers in the U.S. It also helps stop the herpes virus. Note: It is not the silver in dental fillings that is harmful but the mercury which is a deadly poison.

What is the history of colloidal silver?

The uses of Colloidal Silver go on and on in medical journal reports. It was widely used 60 to 70 years ago when, among other reasons, the cost became prohibitive – about $100 per ounce in 1930 dollars. Colloidal Silver is a redevelopment of an earlier, more crude product that was first used in the early 1900’s. It is now produced in a multi-million dollar facility at a much higher quality, at a fraction of the cost.

What are the key characteristics?

Colloidal Silver is non-toxic, non-addictive and has no known side effects. The body develops no tolerance and one cannot overdose. Colloidal Silver cannot cause harm to liver, kidneys, organs or any part of the body. It is safe for pregnant and nursing women and evens aids the developing fetus in growth and health, as well as easing the mother’s delivery and recovery. Colloidal Silver is odorless, tasteless, non-stinging, harmless to eyes, contains no free radicals, is harmless to human enzymes and has no reaction with other medications. It improves digestion, causes rapid regeneration of damaged cells and tissues, helps prevent colds, flu and all organism-caused diseases.

Has it been medically tested?
Yes! Colloidal Silver has been successfully tested at the UCLA Medical Labs where it killed every virus on which it was tested.

What does the FDA say?
According to the FDA, Colloidal Silver may continue to be marketed and used as it was originally intended. Colloidal Silver exceeds FDA recognized standards (Sep.13 1991 letter written by Consumer Safety Officer, Harold Davies, U.S. Food & Drug Admin.). FDA has no jurisdiction regarding a pure, mineral element.

What about colloidal silver for aids?

Since in active aids, the suppressed immune system of the body is open to all kinds of disease; Colloidal Silver is the perfect non-toxic medicine to use for its wide spectrum antibiotic effect. A researcher at Brigham Young University sent Colloidal Silver to two different labs including UCLA Medical Center, which said; “It killed not only the HIV Virus but every virus that was tested in the lab”. According to the FDA rules, Colloidal Silver cannot be used for treating the HIV Virus, but it could be used as an antibiotic for all acquired diseases of active AIDS.
