Mike: At this time, I must conclude that ionic silver works, and works well. That's not to say I don't think particle silver has benefits as well. Luckily, most processes that people use contain both.
With H2O2, the easiest test for benefit is against ear infections. There IS a synergistic effect that can be demonstrated in combined use. Normally, those who use hydrogen peroxide in the ears use it at 3% strength. Adding a few drops of colloidal silver to a 1/2 ounce of 3% hydrogen peroxide certainly causes a noticeable change when the H2O2 CS mixture reaches the infection. In fact, with more severe infections, it can be painful! The solution is to cut the 3% H2O2 down to about 1.5%. I have yet to meet an ear infection that did not respond incredibly well. If I make a batch of colloidal silver with the 9 volt battery method ( where quite a bit of particle silver is deposited in the distilled water ), and use a glass dropper to extract some colloidal silver to another container, then use that same dropper to siphon some H2O2, a reaction is very evident in the glass dropper. I know that many believe that particle silver is ionized through this process. At this point, I tend to agree. When using colloidal silver internally, if I want the added benefit of the H2O2, I only use an incredibly miniscule amount of H2O2.... In the range of an end solution with .0015 - ~ .05 % hydrogen peroxide. Usually, I don't want the 'stomach' reaction that is often present when using H2O2 therapy orally. No need to upset the stomach at all. Clearly more work needs to be done in this area - but it is all fascinating.
