The silver particles in colloidal silver contain a positive charge and are attracted to virus, fungi, bacterium and other single celled pathogens (disease causing organisms). When the silver particles attach themselves to these pathogens (through the positive charge) they disable the pathogens's oxygen metabolism enzyme. In simple terms, they suffocate and kill the bad guys. Once the bad guy is dead, the silver particle releases its bond and searches for a new pathogen to attach to.
The dead pathogens are then cleared out of the body by the immune, lymphatic and elimination systems. (Kidney and bowls) Unlike pharmaceutical antibiotics which destroy beneficial enzymes (the good guys), colloidal silver leaves these tissue cell enzymes intact. This makes colloidal silver absolutely safe for humans, reptiles, plants and all multi-celled living matter. Taken orally, colloidal silver is absorbed from the mouth into the bloodstream, then travels quickly to the body cells. For faster absorption, swish colloidal silver under your tongue for a few seconds before swallowing. In 3 or 4 days the silver will have accumulated in the tissues enough for benefits to begin. After ingesting colloidal silver, it circulates in the body for about a week to two weeks before being eliminated by the kidneys, lymph system and bowel. A regular daily intake of colloidal silver is recommended to protect the body against dangerous pathogens. In cases of minor burns, an accumulation of colloidal silver can hasten healing, reducing scar tissue and infection. Colloidal silver is painless on cuts, abrasions, in open wounds, can be sprayed into the nostrils for a stuffy nose, and even used in a baby's eyes, because unlike antiseptics, it does not destroy tissue cells. It is impossible for single celled organisms to mutate into silver resistant forms, as happens with conventional antibiotics.
Properly made colloidal silver does not interact with any other medications or upset the stomach. In fact, it is a digestive aid. It does not sting the eyes. Medical journal reports and documented studies spanning the past hundred years indicate no known side effects whatsoever, from oral or intravenous administration of colloidal silver in animal or human testing. It has been used with good results under the most demanding health care circumstances.
