Colloidal Silver is known to kill 650 different kinds of pathogens, including bacteria, fungus and viruses in
addition to many others. This is accomplished by inhibiting the enzyme which allows the oxygen metabolism in single
celled microbes. It does so in minutes, safely, with no side effects and no resistant strains developed, as with
antibiotics. Humans (and other animals) absorb it so rapidly due to its small ion size that it is absorbed by the
blood before it can reach the gut (antibiotics very large molecules absorb so slowly they travel into the gut and
kill your normal friendly bacteria (needed for good health) in the intestines).

Dr.Henry Crooks (Use of Colloids in Health-Disease) found that silver in the colloidal state is highly germicidal, quite harmless to humans and absolutely non-toxic. From his bacteriological experiments with silver he concluded, "I know of no microbe that is not killed in laboratory experiments in six minutes".
Colloidal Silver acts as a powerful, broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent. An ordinary antibiotic kills perhaps a half-dozen different disease organisms (no viruses), but colloidal silver is known to be effective against over 650 disease organisms without causing any known side-effects.
Early studies showed extremely low concentrations of 0.01-0.04 PPM to be effective on hundreds of bacteria and 3 to 5 PPM effective on over 650! The potency or quality varied widely, which accounted for the broad range, and sadly is still a problem with much of the cheap equipment and weird procedures available on the market. Adding salt as many suggest makes silver chloride, NOT recommended for internal use, NOT a colloid and thus a poor medicine!
The EPA reference dose for daily lifetime consumption is (14) teaspoons a day of 5 PPM colloidal silver. I.E. no danger or side effects for an average individual taking the dose daily for 70 years! The generally accepted maintenance dose of one tablespoon/day is far less then that. Many say that just 2 to 4 drops a day are effective (Homeopathic dose). There can of course be no standard as we all react differently and have different microbial levels and intake. As a new user, be aware of the Herkimer effect, which any good antibacterial can cause. You may start to feel better and then get the symptoms of the flu as your elimination system is overloaded getting rid of dead pathogens.
"Among a number of metal ions tested, Zn2+(zinc), Cu2+(copper), and Ag1+(silver) were found to be the most effective inhibitors of renin and the HIV protease (data not shown). Kinetic analysis revealed that inhibition of renin by Ag1+(silver) is basically identical with that seen with Zn2+(zinc), i.e., noncompetitive, first order with respect to the metal." Biochemistry, September 10, 1991.
From this study, it seems that zinc and silver will work together to destroy the HIV virus, both type 1 and type 2. Both kill HIV virus, but don't compete against each other.
"What we have actually done was rediscover the fact that silver kills bacteria, which had been known for centuries. When antibiotics were discovered, clinical uses for silver as an antibiotic were discarded" concludes Dr. Robert O. Becker, M.D. Extensive research into the curative properties of silver has been conducted for many years at the Upstate Medical Center, Syracuse University, Syracuse, N.Y. under the direction of above mentioned Dr. Becker. The experiments conclude that silver works on a wide range of bacteria, without any known side-effects or damage to the cells of the body. Silver was doing something more than killing disease causing organisms. It was also causing major growth stimulation of injured tissues. Dr. Becker concludes that the presence of the silver ion may help to regenerate tissue, eliminate old or cancerous cell, and any other diseased or abnormal condition.
Colloidal silver was found effective against - Germs, Bacteria, infections, parasites, giardia, viruses, fungus and pathogens including: Allergies, Acne, Athlete's foot, Bladder infections, Inflammation, Blood Parasites, Blood-Poison, Boils, Bubonic Plague, Burns, Candide Yeast Infection, Chilblains, Cholera, Conjunctivitis, Cold Sores, Colitis, Cyst-isis, Dermatitis, Diabetes caused by infection, Diphtheria, Diarrhea, Dermatitis, Dysentery, Eczema, Fibrosities, Gangrene, Gonorrhea, Herpes, HIV Virus, Impetigo, Influenza, Indigestion, Intestinal Infections, Kreatitis, Leprosy, Leukemia, Lupus, Lymphangitis, Lyme Disease, Malaria, Meningitis, Multiple Sclerosis, Neurasthenic, Parasitic Infections (oral and fungal), Pneumonia, Pleurisy, Prostatitis, Priritis Ani, Psoriasis, Purulence, Ophthalmia, Rabbit Fever, Rhinitis, Rheumatism, Ring-worm, Rosacea, Scarlet Fever, Septic Conditions of the eyes, ears, mouth and throat, Sevorrhes, Shingles, Sinus Infections, Staph Infections, Strep Infections, Stomach Ulcer, Syphilis, Thyroid, Tonsillitis, Toxemia, Trachoma, Trench-Foot, Tuberculosis, Ulcers, All forms of Virus, Warts, Whooping Cough and Yeast Infections.
Early medical research indicated silver is stored in the Kupfer cells in the liver. These cells are one of the
bodies defense mechanisms against infection. Little mention is found in current literature of this added
effectiveness of silver.
The generally recommended maintenance dosage for adults is one tablespoon per day of 3-5 PPM Colloidal Silver
internally. This happens to be the computed amount of elemental silver we used to get from eating fresh fruits and
vegetables when they were part or our diet in the early 1900's. Since then soil depletion caused by over farming
has seriously reduced all trace minerals, including silver, by 85%.
