i operate a health food store in san antonio. do they have pricing for resale?
i did not notice any of their topical products but noted a mention of them being 10 ppm. i directed my manager to order some of silver lightnin product. i hope she gets som colloidal silver books too. thanks again, jd specific nutrition 1620 Babcock road San Antonio, TX 78229 210. 344-5823 -----Original Message----- From: Marshall Dudley <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Tuesday, June 15, 1999 1:55 PM Subject: Re: CS>Ionic or colloidal HVAC CS... what's the best? >JDKlein wrote: > >> Does anyone have an opinion on ionic & colloidal silver versus plain >> colloidal silver. >> Ionic silver is truly dissolved... colloid is like clay mixed with water.. >> not totally dissolved but suspended in solution. >> >> To absorb minerals from supplements, generally we must ionize them with >> stomach acid in order to abosorb them.
