Hi Dee. I'll try to address your questions one at a time. You said >I have read the articles on both brands and > I ve understood that the Mesosilver is a true colloid. Is Sovereign Silver > the same as you all produce yourselves, i.e. EIS or ionic silver? Basically that is true. Sovereign Silver is a highly ionic product produced via electrolysis, That is, it is electrically isolated silver (EIS). There are some minor variations between it and our homemade EIS but they are truly meaningless in terms of our discussion. Both the Sovereign Silver and our home made EIS has a small particulate portion, usually 15% or lessor particulate or colloidal. But still enough to make a difference. You then said: >And although the man who promotes Mesosilver doesn't say that the ionic type >is bad' (he does say it has anti-microbial properties too) why does he > advocate the colloidal type as if the ionic type is not as good? The first most obvious reason that both men are touting their products as better is because they are their products and they want to sell them. Also much of the research quoted on Franks site is based on some very old studies in which I believe frank took part. I have been informed in several places that this research is flawed because the silver product they was using was in fact electrically isolated silver and therefore highly ionic. Doing a little further research on my own it does appear that the only silver solutions used in those studies were some form of EIS and therefore highly ionic not highly colloidal as put forth in the research. Frank's own product is made by a process developed by him using an undisclosed method of production long after that previous research was done. I Strongly agree with Mike when he says "So, know how it's made, or make it yourself." If you don't know how it is made you can't possibly know just what it is you are taking. I/we all know that EIS works and works well. I cannot see paying exorbitant prices for some product about which we know little more than that it is some form of colloidal silver produced by some undisclosed proprietary method When we can make our own very effective EIS for less than a dollar a gallon.
