Thanks for the info, Mike. Marshalee also sent me some useful
information on do-it-yourself CS.
I was leaning more towards buying a unit until I noticed the simplicity
of building a home unit myself with few materials. The only thing that
may prove to be a little challenging is locating the silver wires. I'm
in Ontario, Canada; if anyone is in the area or has any knowledge about
where I could find them locally, please let me know. Failing that, I
can always turn to on-line stores, I gather.
Considering I never made or tasted CS before, I will probably end up
purchasing some CS and comparing with the home-made CS to make sure I am
not doing anything wrong. :)

Dear Maryau,
It is very easy to make good quality colloidal silver with a home-made
or commercial CS generator. There are a few brands of commercially made
CS that appear to be well made, but there's nothing like knowing for
sure what's in the stuff you make.
The cheapest commercial product you can buy is many times the cost of a
jug of distilled water, which is essentially all the cost of a gallon
of home-made CS, discounting a little electricity, of course. Building
or buying a generator will pay for itself quickly. You'll also be
likely to get better results, since you'll feel free to use CS more
liberally than if you're buying it for dollars to the ounce.
If you or someone close is the type that likes to tinker, it's trivial
to build a working CS generator. A couple of pure silver coins from a
local coin shop or lengths of pure silver wire from a jewelry supply
(or various online vendors) will provide the silver. Add a battery or
two, some wires and clips to connect them, and an inexpensive
multimeter to monitor the current, and you'll have what you need to
make acceptable CS in the container of your choice.
Commercial generators range from kits providing little more than the
above, to large machines designed for bulk production. You can easily
get into a decent generator for personal use for $40 to $150, depending
on how sophisticated you want to go.
There are folks here who use a number of commercial generators that can
tell you about their experiences. A couple of vendors are also regular
list contributors, whom you are welcome to contact off-list when they
(or their customers) identify themselves.
I hope that'll get the ball rolling and other members will pipe up with
their suggestions. Keep asking questions until you're up to speed.
Be well,
Mike D.
Hi everybody:
I subscribed to this group yesterday. I have been reading a bit about
CS and how it can help fight Candida. Someone suggested that it can be
home-made and this is why I am writing.
Any information and help is much appreciated.
Maryau
