Colloidal silver and Safety Concerns

What are the two most important questions which you should answer in your mind before popping in a pill or taking any over-the-counter drug, or any nutritional supplement? “Is the product safe?” and “does it have any side-effects?” Most people don’t give much weight age to such question. This is a serious situation and must be addressed. 

Colloidal silver is one such product about which not much information is available in the public domain. Many companies make tall claims that colloidal silver is a cure-all and that their colloidal silver products have no side-effects. Before we further explore such issues, let us first understand more about colloidal silver. 

Most people view silver (chemical symbol Ag) as a semi-precious metal which can be used for ornamental purposes, making utensils and in chemical works. Not many people know that silver has some medicinal properties. Historical records will show that silver has been in use for its medicinal purposes even in the days before Jesus Christ. It worked as an anti-microbial tool for the doctors of those times. 

Historically, colloidal silver was also used as an internal medication to treat a variety of diseases. Their use was largely discontinued in the 1940s, due to the development of safe and effective modern antibiotics and concern about adverse side effects. These were the significant benefits of colloidal silver. 

Colloidal silver is a suspension of microscopic silver ions in a suitable liquid. The simplest method of making Colloidal Silver is to place an electrical charge on a silver anode and a cathode (negative electrode) in water. Some people also use colloidal silver generator to prepare colloidal silver in their home.

The New Silver Solution® is one of the safest colloidal silver generator in the market. All silver solutions are thoroughly tested. All silver products that need to be ingested must have the required toxicity rating. Most heavy metals like mercury, lead, silver etc. are known to possess anti-microbial properties. But all these metals are also toxic in nature and pose risks to human health. Out of all these metals, silver is the least toxic. The New Silver Solution®, unlike other silver solutions, has undergone scientific testing for toxicity levels. It gives clear instructions when it comes to the quantity of colloid silver solution which should be used. This colloidal silver formulation has also gone through the rigors of independent lab analysis regarding its efficacy as an antimicrobial agent.

Silver can prove to be an effective health supplement for you, provided you exercise due care in its usage.
