COLLOIDAL SILVER
Colloidal Silver for Infections and Viruses
First, unlike most consultant in nutrition or nutritionist, I don't sell Colloidal Silver. My goal is to simply provide you with some information so you can decide whether you prefer a natural antibiotic or you would rather take medicine prescribed by a doctor. I use it myself at times, if I am retracing an infection. Colloidal Silver protects against different flues and infections.
Colloidal Silver is a simple, low toxicity, and often very effective anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and even anti-parasitic agent. Everyone should keep a bottle around the house for cuts and other emergencies.
Colloidal silver consists of small, electrically charged silver ions dissolved in distilled water. That is all the low-part-per-million products (up to 100 parts per million or so) should contain.
More concentrated products also contain a protein, perhaps to keep the silver properly in solution. However, I don’t usually recommend them, as they are not often needed.

HISTORY
Silver has been known as a potent germ-killer for thousands of years. In ancient times, people would put a silver coin in a jug of water before drinking it to help purify it.
For hundreds of years, kings and queens ate their food with “silverware” to help reduce the possibility of infection. They also ate from “silver platters” for the same reason. These were not just for show.
Colloidal silver has been approved for use by human beings and livestock by our government for over 100 years. It is only relatively recently that antibiotics have replaced it in hospitals and doctors offices. While antibiotics are sometimes helpful, they are much more toxic, costly, and have other problems, as explained below.

ADVANTAGES OF COLLOIDAL SILVER OVER MOST OTHER ANTI-INFECTION AGENTS
These are many and include:
- Very safe, compared to antibiotics. This is true even for babies and pregnant women, when used correctly. The internet has stories of people turning blue and gray from taking colloidal silver. This effect is called argyria. In my experience, this only happens if one uses homemade colloidal silver or if one takes too much of it. I have never seen argyria develop when one uses a quality commercially-made product such as Arabesque, in the correct dosage.
- Bacteria and viruses rarely become resistant to it.
- Very wide-spectrum. This means it may help with a large number.
- Non-allergenic.
- Extremely mild or non-irritating to the tissues. In fact, silver in this form is healing to the tissues.
- Low cost
CAUTIONS
1. Homemade Colloidal Silver – please avoid this. I do not recommend making your own colloidal silver. I consider this dangerous. There is no quality control on the particle size or on the concentration of the particles, so you really do not know what you are getting. Please do not use homemade colloidal silver.
2. Do not use colloidal silver every time you don’t feel well. In our experience, it is often not needed or helpful for retracing reactions, which are the reactions that cause most symptoms during a nutritional balancing program.
Instead, contact your practitioner and ask that I check to see if colloidal silver or another produce would be helpful.
Other helpful remedies for infections and viruses are vitamin A (about 25,000 IU daily for adults and less for children), or Limcomin from Endomet Labs.
3. Don’t stay on colloidal silver for more than 14 days at a time. If it is not working in that time, most likely it will not help. Remaining on the product longer risks some toxicity.

TOXICITY ISSUES
The brands of colloidal silver I recommend on this page contain less than 50 parts per million of silver dissolved in distilled water. This is very safe, as too much silver can affect the color of the skin, and can be somewhat toxic in other ways, as well.
However, do not stay on colloidal silver for more than a week to 10 days, in most cases. Some people like it so much they want to live on it. I do not suggest this.

HOW TO USE COLLOIDAL SILVER
Colloidal silver can be used in dozens of ways.
Oral use. For systemic infections, adults can take 2 or 3 tablespoons of the Arabesque OR the Sovereign Silver product daily, the two I generally recommend. Higher dose products require smaller doses. It has almost no taste at all.
Be sure to take it alone, not diluted, and do not eat or drink for about 30 minutes before or after taking it. This helps it to be absorbed best.
Take it for at least 3-4 days, once you start.
You may take it up to two weeks if absolutely needed.
Children: The dosage must be reduced for children, depending on their size and weight.
On the skin. Colloidal silver works excellently as a topical anti-infective agent. It is sold in a spray bottle and in a cream form to make skin application easier. It can also be combined with zinc oxide ointment, for example.
Always take it by mouth as well as using it on the skin for best results. It can be applied to any skin infection.
Ears. To do this, lay the person down on a bed or couch with the affected ear facing upward. Put a drop or two in the infected ear. Then have the person remain lying in this position for at least 10 minutes while it is absorbed.
Eyes. This is also safe if the silver is from a clean bottle. Use as you would use other eye drops.
Vaginally. For vaginal application, use it full strength. Do not mix it with water or anything else. The best way to apply it is for a friend, nurse or doctor to use a vaginal speculum to see where to apply it. Doing it yourself is difficult.
It can help some sexually-transmitted diseases, but only if applied quickly after the infection has occurred. Always take it by mouth at the same time for best results. It can definitely help if one thinks one has gotten a disease this way, and it is quite non-toxic.
Inhalation. For bronchitis, pneumonia or pleurisy, one can inhale some into the lungs and bronchial tubes. To do this, you will need to buy or place some of it in a spray bottle. Hold the spray bottle in front of your open mouth. Exhale deeply, and then inhale through your mouth. As you inhale, spray some into your mouth at the same time. It is quite non-irritating taken this way.
Sniffing up the nose. One can sniff some up the nose for acute sinus infections. Place some in the palm of your hand, and then sniff it up the nose.
For a toothache. One can place some in the mouth near an infected tooth and let it soak in around the tooth. This is not a substitute for caring for your teeth properly, but it can help in an emergency.
Gargle. One can also gargle it in the throat for a sore throat.
STORAGE
Colloidal silver is unusual in that it does not need to be refrigerated, and yet a bottle can remain fresh for many years. Storing in plastic appears to be fine.
Do not store it in direct sunlight. Also, do not store it next to a strong magnetic field such as that found in a motor or other electrical device. This could cause the silver particles to lose their charge, which destroys the product. If you notice flakes of silver in the bottom of the bottle, it should be replaced because this means the silver is coming out of solution.
BRANDS OF COLLOIDAL SILVER I RECOMMEND
1. Arabesque. Arabesque brand colloidal silver has worked consistently well for years, compared to many other brands I have used.
It is also one of the few brands I have found that actually demonstrates the Tyndall Effect. This is a test in which you place a light behind the bottle of colloidal silver. Normally the product should appear clear. However, when you place a light so that it reflects at an angle, the solution should appear cloudy. It is a good test and helpful if you are not sure about the quality of a low-dose colloidal silver product.
Arabesque brand is also very low-priced compared to many other brands. This product is wonderful to have around the house for emergencies and for infections.
I have not seen this brand of colloidal silver in health food stores, unfortunately. To order Arabesque brand colloidal silver, click here OR call the distributor at: 1-888-891-0286 (in Arizona, USA).
2. Sovereign Silver. This is found in some health food stores. It also works well, and appears to be similar in its manufacture to Arabesque brand. It is more expensive than the Arabesque brand.
