Is Colloidal Silver (whatever Form Is Sold At Health Stores) Effective And Quick At Curing Infection?
I was reading about Mesosilver- a product only available over the internet, but don’t really have time to wait to order it. Is it the same as the type from most nutrition stores? Has the same potency?
Also, can you take colloidal silver along with other natural things like apple cider vinegar and sugars? Is it safe yet still effective?
Thank you to anyone who can answer all questions!

If you’re taking it internally, you should keep it to one teaspoon per day. Yes, it can effective for certain things and you can combine it with anything.

Depends.
What is the purpose of the colloidal silver? Do you have an infection you need to treat?
Unfortunately, CS made its great re-entrance into the market, but pales in comparison, to other alternatives like yogurt and garlic.
You’d be surprised to find out that CS lacks in scientific studies/trials, and that others fare better as those I’ve mentioned, and you didn’t even need to travel far from your refrigerator or cupboard, either!
Stick to those two, but be aggressive. You want to err on the side of caution and not unnecessarily put a whole in your wallet. As with pharmaceutical companies, you also want to be leary of neutriceuticals, too. Develop a keen eye by doing your homework as in a lot of cases you will discover by trial and error, in addition.
I trust that you’ve not abandoned other remedies and I’ve read colloidal silvers flimsy claims through my years of taking natural approaches while I’ve ditched most convential “wisdom”. Although, an occasional/rare instance of running to the ER has been part of my life.
Try aggressive treatments of garlic and yoghurt if undisclosed infection is internal. I am treating a 4 yr old wart with a topical treatment of tea tree oil and garlic and so far, it’s showing some favorable results.
If you have a respiratory infection, follow through with ingestion of one garlic clove 4X/day on an empty stomach, but chew slowly and bite it off a little at a time. Don’t buy the pills–waste of your hard earned dollars. Eat plain/vanilla yoghurt 6X/day on an empty stomach or inbetween meals. Eat more fruits and veggies than the western diet and drink plenty of water. Ditch Starbucks and Micky D’s–killers!!!
Good luck…

I would rather use tea tree oil than colloidal silver for infections. I have not seen it do any good for the one resident who has it used on her bottom as well as drinks it per her family request.

colloidal silver is dangerous and causes argyria (a PERMANENT condition). see my blog on yahoo 360 for more information.
