as far as shelf life:
my personal leaning is that fresh made cs is superior to days old stuff.
so, given my experience with the effectiveness of homemade cs,
i suggest making it at home in small quantities and remaking it
as neccesary.

I have two questions concerning Colloidal Silver. The first question
deals
with immunity and CS. I know from experience and research that heavy
use of
antibiotics results in a compromised immune system. The immune system
comes
to depend heavily on the antibiotics to fight disease and soon the
antibiotics become necessary to fight off even the simplest of germs.
Does
this happen with CS? Why or why not?
I have heard comments from several friends about colloidal silver
having a
shelf life or losing its potency. A friend that has made CS for years
states that towards the end of his bottle (8 ounces) he can tell the CS
is
not as potent anymore, like it has lost its charge. He notices that it
is
not as effective. A friend that owns an herb shop says the CS is
susceptible to light and must be in a dark glass container and must be
handled carefully. I have read online that the CS does NOT need to be
in a
dark or amber colored glass. My question is.. Does CS have a shelf
life?
How long is it? What things besides freezing effect CS? Why would CS
become
"contaminated" and not useful anymore? If CS kills whatever germs it
comes
into contact with, how could CS possibly get contaminated by a Q-tip or
cotton ball coming into contact with it?
I have searched online for these answers and I will have to tell you the
information out there is varied and contradictive. I value the
opinions and
findings of the many learned people here on list.
Thank you so much in advance for any help you can offer.
