Early Research
Colloidal silver was in common use until 1938. Many remember their
grandparents putting silver coins in milk to prolong its freshness at
room temperature. At the turn of the century, scientists had discovered
that the body's most important fluids are colloidal in nature: suspended
ultra-fine particles. Blood, for example, carries nutrition and oxygen
to the body cells. This led to studies with colloidal silver. Prior to
1938, colloidal silver was used by physicians as a mainstream antibiotic
treatment and was considered quite "high-tech." Production methods,
however, were costly. The pharmaceutical industry moved in, causing
colloidal research to be set aside in favour of fast working and
financially lucrative drugs.
The Food and Drug Administration today classifies
colloidal silver as a pre-1938 drug. A letter from the FDA dated 9/13/91
states: "These products may continue to be marketed . . . as long as
they are advertised and labelled for the same use as in 1938 and as long
as they are manufactured in the original manner." Some of the
manufacturing methods used before 1938 are still used today.
Contemporary Studies
While studying 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 kill
surrounding bacteria. The March 1978 issue of Science Digest, in
an article, "Our Mightiest Germ Fighter," reported: "Thanks to
eye-opening research, silver is emerging as a wonder of modern medicine.
An antibiotic kills perhaps a half-dozen different disease organisms,
but silver kills some 650. Resistant strains fail to develop. Moreover,
silver is virtually non-toxic." The article ended with a quote by Dr.
Harry Margraf, a biochemist and pioneering silver researcher who worked
with the late Carl Moyer, M.D., chairman of Washington University's
Department of Surgery in the 1970s: "Silver is the best all-around germ
fighter we have."
How It Works
The presence of colloidal silver near a virus, fungus,
bacterium or any other single celled pathogen disables its oxygen
metabolism enzyme, its chemical lung, so to say. Within a few minutes,
the pathogen suffocates and dies, and is cleared out of the body by the
immune, lymphatic and elimination systems. Unlike pharmaceutical
antibiotics, which destroy beneficial enzymes, colloidal silver leaves
these tissue-cell enzymes intact, as they are radically different from
the enzymes of primitive single-celled life. Thus colloidal silver is
absolutely safe for humans, reptiles, plants and all multi-celled living
matter.

"I suffered from a fungal infection on my back called
Candida, which for anyone who suffers with this condition knows it is very
painful and uncomfortable. Since using colloidal silver the problem has eased,
the infection has gone and the itching appears to be getting easier to deal
with. - Great product !"
