The Benefits of Colloidal Silver

We have been using Colloidal Silver in our home and previous business for years and loved it for a huge number of things. We thought we would give you a little bit of info as to what colloidal silver is and we encourage you to do a bit of research into all the uses it has.

The below information was taken from Sutton's Colloidal Silver website. This is the brand we have been using for over 10 years and the one we stock.

The body’s tissues are composed of billions of living cells. The minerals and metals in the foods we ingest provide the very life force of these cells. Silver is converted in to particles so minute that they can be utilised by living cells.

In ancient times it was known that silver prevented disease and was commonly thought that disease could not be transferred person to person if drinking from a silver cup.
Silver coins were dropped into milk to prevent spoilage and silver containers were used to store food in general.

Until almost 1970, it was common for scientists to sterilise petrii dishes by placing a silver coin in them and silver was long used for plates for the surgical repair of bones.

The most common usage of silver was by members of royal families, who ate from silver plates, drank from silver cups and used silver utensils almost exclusively. Over a period of time, silver was slightly worn off and mixed into their food and drink. Commoners, who ate from earthen ware jugs and bowls were frequently ill.

From the 1920’s through to the 1940’s, silver was ground into a very fine powder and added to water.

It was a common occurrence for adults to take 1-2 tablespoons (equivalent of approx. 20 mls by today’s standards) of Colloidal Silver on rising. (Children would take 1-2 teaspoons or the equivalent of 10 mls). The liquid would then be held in the mouth, under the tongue for 30 seconds, before being swallowed. A form of healing crisis sometimes occurred after two days, where the body sloughed off the build up of toxins. This caused minor incidences of flu-like symptoms as well as mild diarrhea. The remedy was to increase consumption of water and to rest as this would lessen the symptoms. After a week, many people reported feeling better than ever!

The equivalent of these dosages is still being used by thousands of people today! Up to 1938, bacteria were considered treatable with Colloidal Silver. Unfortunately, with the development of patented antibiotics, silver was almost all but forgotten.

The introduction of penicillin almost certainly caused the research into Colloidal Silver to be put aside. Penicillin was less costly, more profitable and able to be industry controlled, unlike Colloidal Silver. Because pharmaceuticals can be patented and Colloidal Silver cannot, pharmaceutical companies find it financially worthwhile to educate doctors on their products.

Just a few ways we use colloidal silver in our home:

Adding to our hand wash
Using to help with eye irritations
Taking small amounts daily to help support a healthy body
First aid for all cuts, scrapes and wounds
