Here is the whole colloidal silver article from the newsletter:
Errr, I thought silver particles have no charge? Which is why they do
not register on a conductance meter such as PWT, or TDS?
Since CS kills anerobes as well as aerobic bacteria, the below info
about "smothering the bad guys" gives the impression that CS cannot kill
beneficial bacteria, which is simply untrue, and could be dangerous if
people believe it. Could be particularly dangerous for rabbits, as if
one gave a rabbit the dose of CS I give my cats (half their drinking
water is CS) it would very likely kill the rabbit, just as oral
penicillin, clindamycin, etc kill rabbits when given orally.
Good thing it later says only put 1 tsp to 1 TBS in a pet's water!!!!!
Another piece of mis-information states that CS "circulates in the " for
a week or two??????? Though a small study of one person, I thought the
Altman study pretty much showed CS goes through in a day or two, not weeks?
Also states silver accumulates in tissues in 3 or 4 days----I thought
this was also not the case? If CS is indeed excreted as per the Atlman
study isn't this also mis-information?
Isn't the statement that CS forms no toxic compounds also wrong? Some
silver compounds are toxic, I believe. Whether those form in the body,
if only pure ionic/particulate CS is ingested is another issue. I am
speaking of the statement as a flat statement that no silver compound is
toxic at all.
All in all I have to give this a big thumbs down. Too inaccurate, too
sloppy, and could be dangerously misleading to someone who knows nothing
about CS, and for a rabbit newsletter to publish something containing
inaccuracies that could lead easily to rabbit deaths through careless
oral use is just awful. Had the info been directed solely to humans,
dogs, cats, I'd still have a lot of trouble with the inaccuracies as I
see them.

"How Does Colloidal Silver Work?
The silver particles in colloidal silver contain a positive charge and
are attracted to virus, fungi, bacterium and other single celled
pathogens (disease causing organisms). When the silver particles attach
themselves to these pathogens, they disable the pathogens' oxygen
Metabolism enzyme. In other words, they suffocate and kill the bad guys.
They don't have a chance to develop resistant strains. Once the bad guy
is dead, the silver particle releases its' bond and searches for a new
Pathogen to attach to. The dead pathogens are then cleared out of the
body by the immune, lymphatic and elimination systems. Unlike
pharmaceutical antibiotics which destroy beneficial enzymes (good guys),
colloidal silver leaves these tissue cell enzymes intact. This makes
colloidal silver absolutely safe for humans, animals, reptiles, plants
and all multi-celled living matter.
Taken orally, colloidal silver is absorbed from the mouth into the
bloodstream, then travels quickly to the body cells. For faster
absorption, swish colloidal silver under your tongue for a few seconds,
before swallowing. In 3 or 4 days the silver will have accumulated in
the tissues enough for benefits to begin.
after ingesting colloidal silver, it circulates in the body for about a
week or two before being eliminated by the kidneys, lymph system and
bowel. A regular daily intake of colloidal silver is recommended to
protect the body against dangerous pathogens.
Colloidal silver is painless on cuts, abrasions, burns, in open wounds
in the nostrils for a stuffy nose, and even in a baby's eyes because,
unlike antiseptics, it does not destroy tissue cells. It is impossible
for single-celled organisms to mutate into silver -resistant forms, as
happens with conventional antibiotics. Therefore, no tolerance to
colloidal silver ever develops. Colloidal silver will not interact or
interfere with other medications. Inside the body, silver forms no toxic
compounds, nor reacts with anything other than a germ's oxygen
metabolizing enzyme.
Suggested dosages - all are adjustable.
People
infants 0-1 yr. 1/4 tsp. - 1/4 Tbs..
children 1-7 yrs 1/2 tsp. - 1/2 Tbs..
adults 7+ yrs. 1 tsp. - 1 Tbs.
cuts and abrasions - After thorough cleaning, apply gauze soaked with
colloidal silver. Re-soak or change dressing three times a day or as
needed or just spray wound three to six times a day.
Tooth care - put a few drops on your tooth brush every brushing without
toothpaste and swish around in mouth for 30 sec. then spit out.
External use - eczema, fungus, rashes, athletes foot, warts, arthritis,
bursitis , acne, boils, etc.
spray on affected area three times a day or as often as needed until
clear or apply gauze soaked in colloidal silver until clear.
Sinus & Eye Infection - Sprits or drop in each nostril, eye or ear every
15 min. until condition improves. then every hour until completely
relieved. When putting drops in eyes, pt drops in tear duct area then
keep eye closed for 5 min after application. (They put silver in babies
eyes when they are born - or at least they use to )
Sore throat - gargle 1 tsp. - 1 Table every hour then spit out until
condition improves.
Animal Care - Put 1 tsp. to 1 Tbs.. of colloidal silver in pet's water
bowl each time you fill it.
For severe infections (parvo, distemper, etc.) use an eyedropper and
give 1 tsp. - 1 Tbs., 3 times a day directly in pets mouth until
condition improves.
CAUTION: Sometimes (as with many other remedies) if taken in large
quantities you could start killing off the harmful pathogens in the body
too quickly. this could cause a temporary overload on the body which
could result in a flu-like condition. (headache, dizziness, nausea,
aching muscles, or extreme fatigue) This is known as Herxheimers
Reaction. You simply cut down on your intake or colloidal silver and
drink more water throughout the day to help wash out your system.
