Hello Roger, As silver disables pathogens rather than destroying them, ie prevents their reproduction or ability process energy, the immune system (antibodies et al) is still required to latch onto and break the pathogenic cells apart and eliminate them.
As I see it, silver stops or slows the proliferation of infectious agents (the cells of which may divide every 20mins) and allows the immune system to catch up to and clear the infection in a shorter time frame than otherwise would have occurred. Far better to be healthy and to have an efficient immune system, than to rely on silver to 'protect' you IMO, and only use silver when required.
