Silver Kills Germs Colloidal silver is a suspension of metallic silver particles too small to be seen through a microscope. Colloidal silver appears to be a powerful, natural antibiotic and preventative against infections.Throughout Recorded History man has used silver to kill germs throughout recorded history. Here is an ancient anecdote from the writings of Herodotus, the Greek philosopher, dating this use of silver to before the birth of Christ.íThe Greek historian Herodotus, called the “Father of History”, is one of our prime sources for information known about the fall of Babylon. Herodotus lived a century after the time of Daniel and traveled widely in the East. In his “Histories,” we learn of the campaign of Persia’s King Cyrus against Babylon. The details include the fact that no Persian king, including Cyrus, would drink the water of any stream other than the Choaspes, a river that flows past the Persian capital of Susa. Wherever the king went, a long train of four-wheeled mule wagons followed him transporting silver jars filled with boiled water from the river�s waters. The water would keep fresh for years during the long campaigns.The Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Egyptians and many peoples from the “Dark Ages” used silver in one form or another to preserve food and water. In the “Middle Ages,” during the plagues, silverware protected the wealthy from the full brunt of its ravages. In the old west, pioneers used silver coins to preserve milk and water. In the last century, man was beginning to develop more sophisticated forms of silver to kill germs. The FDA Took Over In 1938, the FDA was formed, Penicillin was introduced and the modern pharmaceutical industry began to dominate anti-microbial science. Since silver preparations were more expensive, they receded from favor. Silver Use in Modern Times The use of some silver preparations in mainstream medicine has survived until this “Modern Age.” Among them are the use of dilute silver nitrate in newborn babies’ eyes to protect from infection and the use of “Silvadine,” a silver based salve, in virtually every burn ward in America to kill infection. A new silver based bandage has recently been approved by the FDA and licensed for sale. Bacteria Becoming Resistant Now, as many bacteria become resistant to pharmaceutical antibiotics, silver is emerging once more as a germ killer inside the human body. During the last several decades, the technology of silver as a germ fighter has continued to evolve. Instead of just using the surface of coins or silver vessels to come in contact with germs to kill them, silver is now being used in the �colloidal� state. The Colloidal State Colloidal silver has now evolved to be one of the most valuable germ killers known. The term colloidal means ultra fine particles of a substance suspended in a medium. In the case of the colloidal silver we refer to here, it means particles of silver suspended in pure water. These particles are so fine that a billion of them could fit on the cross-section of a human hair! Cutting Edge Technology The cutting edge technology of colloidal science has produced a product, which is proving to be highly beneficial to the health of the many individuals who are using it according to their own reports. The left menu has some testimonials that we have received from people who have used our colloidal silver over the last several years. These reports are presented just as we received them and as such have misspellings and incorrect punctuation and grammar. Since colloidal silver has not undergone the rigorous testing required to become an FDA licensed drug, we are not allowed to claim any cures or treatments for individual medical conditions. You must arrive at your own judgment as to whether you will try colloidal silver for the benefit of the health of your family. We hope you will excuse the flaws and receive the essence of the meaning of these real people. |
