To the 'Certified Clinical Aromatherapist' {I omitted the 'medical' part cos 
it's not medical}...If the purpose of posting that here was to impart some 
factual information, then here's my response...Complete and utter BS!
Not one of those 'Authorities?' define what substance they refer to in their 
silver bashing, and not one 'Authority?' has any information regarding the 
product we produce in the kitchen!
There is a vast difference between shop bought products, which these so called 
authorities refer to, and what is produced in the home using LVDC!

Subject: CS>Fw: [oils_herbs_etc] Colloidal silver, was  laryngitis , need help










I recommended gargling & 
swallowing 20 - 30 ml of CS for someone with laryngitis - this was someone 
else's response - this is what we are up against I guess - all I can do is 
groan.  On the other hand I suppose I could point out other anomalies the 
FDA show in their recommendations.

Hi Everyone, 
Simply type in 'Colloidal Silver dangers' in any search 
engine and you will get plenty of legimate websites with FDA research results 
stating the unsafe or side effects of using colloidal silver supplements. 


I just did a brief search and came up with several sites explaining the 
dangerous side of effects of using colloidal silver. Ingesting silver is toxic 
and the damage done is not reversable. 

There are many MLM companies 
saying it is safe to use colloidal silver but MLM companies, as we all know, 
have a lot of hype to sell products. 

On the other hand essential oils 
when used in proper amounts by diffusing them, inhaling them or as a massage 
oil 
or lotion in the proper percentages will help with many health concerns. Your 
body doesn't store essential oils in the body, it eliminates them usually 
within 
a few hours. 

Please note: Do not ingest essential oils unless they are 
prescribed by a licensed medical practioner. You do not ingest essential oils 
for health concerns - in the USA - if you are an aromatherapist - you know that 
the FDA rules do not allow us to tell folks to ingest.

We can have you 
Gargle a diluted warm water solution with a drop or two of essential oils added 
but you would 'spit' it out and not swallow it. 

Please note that Sweet 
Birch and Wintergreen are not true essential oils and as such will accumulate 
in 
the liver. They contain methyl salicylate and it is widely known that 
salicylates are toxic and need to be used with caution. 

The best 
suggestion for Laryngitis is still to inhale essential oils that reduce 
inflammation such as the Chamomiles or even Eucalyptus oils. See my previous 
post of an article written with suggestions to help in particular for 
laryngitis. 

I'm sure there are a few herbalists on this list that may 
know of polstices or balms that can be used on the throat region to help with 
the inflammation also. 

Yours in Aromatherapy,
