Hi, Liz,

There was a discussion about this a while back, and a couple of people decided to put together some basic info for just this occasion. I think this is the right link:

http://www.fugitt.com/cs.htm

There is plenty to keep you busy reading just the basics. There is also lots of good info at:

www.silvermedicine.org

including a link to a page of lab reports telling you which products they tested came out to be ionic, colloidal or compounds of some sort. Not much of it is cheap, which is why most of us make our own, since it is easily done and needs no specialized knowledge. It does require that one can follow directions exactly, though. Nearly everyone here that I know of uses ionic silver, at 10 ppm. Some like to make it extra strong- and I used to make mine at 5ppm- just a personal preference.

Take care,

Kathryn

Hi:)
 
I'm new to the list.
 
Someone recommended colloidal silver to me for colds and flu, so I fired up the computer and started looking for information. I've been surfing the net and reading, and I'm probably more confused than I was to begin with. There is ionic silver, and colloidal silver and clear silver . There's 10ppm that claims it works as well as 500ppm. There are people who claim patented ways of processing so it's used by the body better.
 
My head is just spinning!
 
How the heck do I know what to buy or not to buy? There is so much conflicting information I'm totally lost. Can someone please tell me what kind of silver I can safely take and where to get it at a reasonable price. The prices are outrageous. If it were a whole price of silver like a ring or something I could see them charging the prices they do, but for little particles of silver that you can't see with your naked eye in some filtered water. Give me a break!
 
So I stumbled over this list and hopefully someone can tell me what's what. Please?
 
Thank you
 
Liz
