Why Colloidal Silver is your Answer!

Colloidal silver has gained attention in natural health circles for its potential to support the immune system and promote overall wellness. Many crunchy moms & dads are curious about this natural remedy and how it might fit into their family's health routine. This post explores what colloidal silver is, its benefits, brief history, and practical ways to use it safely.



What Is Colloidal Silver?


Colloidal Silver (also called Nanosilver) is a suspension of extremely small silver particles dispersed evenly in a water-based solution. Smoke is a basic collide of particles burned in the air. Imagine magnifying the diameter to represent one mile. Within that vast stretch, these tiny silver pieces would appear as green peas. Unlike silver compounds or silver salts, colloidal silver contains microscopic silver particles that remain evenly dispersed. This form has been used historically for its antimicrobial properties.

 

In our Colloidal Silver we use 99.99% pure elemental silver, guaranteeing the production of high-quality solutions with 0ppm distilled water. It is stirred magnetically with a sealed flask to ensure no airborne contaminants and creates a superior collide. Our process also includes dynamic polarity reversal for improved effectiveness. We use an Organic Accelerator. It has been said to be 8.4nm by the independent tests the manufacture of our maker we use. Beware of particle size claims of 0.0008 micron and 0.8 nm as that is a silver oxide.

 

In natural health communities, colloidal silver is often valued for its potential to support the body's defenses against bacteria, viruses, and fungi. While modern medicine has largely replaced silver with antibiotics, some people prefer colloidal silver as a natural alternative or supplement. Our family has been able to avoid use of antibiotics and there side effect repeatedly. If the SHTF we also have it on hand, which was handy during the 2020 shut down.


How Colloidal Silver Supports Immune Health


One of the main reasons crunchy moms turn to colloidal silver is for immune support. Research shows that silver ions can disrupt the function of certain microbes, which may help reduce infections.


Numerous laboratory tests have consistently shown the remarkable efficacy of silver in eliminating disease-causing pathogens, viruses, and bacteria within minutes of contact. Silver possesses potent properties that make it anti-fungal, anti-germicidal, anti-bacterial, and anti-viral. Even today, silver-infused bandages are widely used in hospital burn wards, effectively preventing the formation of scar tissue. Ionic silver also plays a critical role in the regeneration of skin tissue, enabling damaged cells to transform into new, healthy cells. By facilitating this cellular transformation process, silver aids in the optimal healing of wounds by allowing the cells to develop into the necessary types for the restoration process. [1]


Here are some ways colloidal silver is believed to support immune health:


  • Antimicrobial action: Silver particles can attach to bacteria and viruses, interfering with their ability to multiply.

  • Wound care: Colloidal silver has been used topically to help prevent infection in minor cuts and scrapes.

  • Respiratory support: Some use colloidal silver as a spray or drops to soothe sore throats or nasal passages during colds, as well as support of the lungs and upper respiratory system.

  • Immune Support: taken internally for a maintenance dose many find improved resistance to life's little bugs.


The benefits are promising and has been sited in medical journals and books, though buried by some governmental bodies.



A Brief Overview of Colloidal Silver's History


During the 50’s the Soviets found Movidyn (powdered form of colloidal silver) in Czechoslovakia. “…[T]he Soviets… [found it] disinfected every germ warfare agent in the Soviet arsenal, even their latest designer poisons.” They disassembled the factory.[2]

Historically Silver Use: has been used to up the immune system, treat burns, cleanse wounds (hospitals use a silver collide in Sivadine on burn patients), affect the Ph pf the body, speed healing, magnify the intensity of a healing substance (ie: I add in to my throat spray to up its power), killing parasites**[3], speeding the body’s ability to heal “like the cells of children!” [4] “Overall emotional equilibrium.” “Silverlon a FDA approved silver foil product for wounds”, FDA medical approved properties of Silverlon “All pathologic (disease-causing) bacteria species that come in contact with Silverlon are killed. Silverlon is self-sterilizing, can accelerate healing, and significantly reduce scarring.” Silverlon is also “antifungal, analgesic (pain reducing), hypoallergenic and regenerative.” [5]

Wikipedia: Silver ions and silver compounds show a toxic effect on bacteria, viruses, algae and fungi, typical for heavy metals like lead or mercury but without the high toxicity to humans normally associated with these other metals. Hippocrates, the "father of medicine," wrote that silver had beneficial healing and anti‑disease properties, and the Phoenicians stored water, wine, and vinegar in silver bottles to prevent spoiling.

 

In the early 20th century, people put silver coins in milk bottles to prolong the milk's freshness. Its germicidal effects increased its value in utensils and as jewelry.

 

Silver is widely used in topical gels and infused bandages and was commonly used to prevent infections in World War I.

 

Silver sulfadiazine cream became the "standard of care" for the antibacterial and antibiotic treatment of serious burns until the late 1990s.

 


Practical Ways to Use Colloidal Silver


Colloidal Silver, Nanosilver, is a suspension of extremely small silver particles dispersed evenly in a water-based solution. Colloidal Silver can be stored for 6 months - years without losing its potency.


“It does not interact with any other medications…[or] upset the stomach, and in fact is a digestive aid… [nor does it] sting in the eyes. [1] It is tasteless, odorless, purported to be Antibacterial, Antifungal, Antiviral, Antiparasitic, emotionally stabilizing, assists with a healthy immune system, homeostasis as well as with Alkalinity. Common pH 7-8 Vegan, & Organic

Internally: Highest Effectiveness on Empty Stomach.


Common Dosage Suggestions:


  • Topical application: Apply a few drops to minor wounds, insect bites, or skin irritations to help reduce infection risk.

  • Oral use: Adults: 1 Tbl, Children: 1 tsp

  • Vaporizer: May be added to vaporizer (quickest way to blood stream & lungs)

  • Nasal spray: Many take 2-4 sprays per nostril daily or in vaporizer

Always choose high-quality colloidal silver products with clear labeling.



Safety Considerations and Risks


Using colloidal silver requires some care. Do not refrigerate or freeze it as it can cause instability. Keep out of UV light for long periods of time. When taking internally try on an empty stomach for the highest undisrupted potency.


Here are some safety tips:


  • Don't get your medical advice from AI

  • Don't expect the average MD to know about natural health or colloidal silver

  • Colloidal silver is not known to have an interaction with any medication or food, but it's generally considered best to take on an empty stomach for the highest potency.

  • This is not medical advice. Always use your best judgment as you likely know your body best.


What really happened to the Blue Man?


"Blue Man- Paul Karason made the mistake of adding common table salt (sodium chloride) to his distilled water as a catalyst to speed the production time of his homemade silver solutions. Paul was unaware that salt or other additives should never be incorporated into the "electrolysis" process when creating a proper silver solution. While adding salt reduced Paul's production time, it created a completely different silver compound called silver chloride. This compound has been shown to cause harmless skin discoloration condition called "Argyria." Silver chloride is in no way pure ionic or colloidal silver.


No cases of Argyria have ever been linked to properly produced ionic or colloidal silver solutions. [2]


Natural health remedies like colloidal silver work best when used responsibly. Remember no one cares more about your health then you do.


How Colloidal Silver Fits Into a Crunchy Lifestyle


Crunchy moms often seek natural ways to keep their families healthy without relying heavily on pharmaceuticals. Colloidal silver fits well into this approach because it is a simple, natural product with a long history of use.


Incorporating colloidal silver can complement other natural health practices such as:


  • Using herbal teas and tinctures for immune support

  • Eating crunchy, whole foods rich in vitamins and minerals

  • essential oils, and herb use

  • Practicing mindful self-care and stress reduction


By combining these strategies, families can build strong immune defenses naturally.
