Well, I guess you could sum up my beliefs when it comes to meds by using the best you can, that works and is relatively safe, whether it be all natural alternative methods or conventional meds. I think the smartest folks/doctors don’t discount either and will use both as they need to, even sometimes together (if safely) to enhance or compliment one another. I’ve always had an interest in herbs, vitamins and natural treatments anyway. To be honest, it’s been a long time, I can’t even remember how it was that I found it.. I think I may have just been browsing back in the late nineties. Back then I had web tv! Anyone remember those LOL.
Well, I used to order all my colloidal silver online from a place in TN called Silver Lightning. I did so for quite some time, til around the year 2000, I decided to purchase my own colloidal silver machine. They can be expensive, usually running several hundred dollars, but I did research and found one I liked from a company called CS Pro Systems. It cost me around $800-900, but I feel like it was worth it. I don’t make it or use it as often as I used to, but it’s still there in case I ever need it. Now he sells machines for quite a bit less, so if a person wanted to purchase a good one, you could probably pick one up in the $300-400 range.
My husband calls it my water welder cause basically what I'm doing is using a small scale generator/machine capable of producing high voltage. There are several different kinds of generators out there.. some mid voltage and some even low or dc voltage. Mine happens to be an older high voltage unit. You basically have the machine hooked up to a batch tank that holds your silver water. You have pure silver electrodes and arc bars that are suspended just above the water surface, so that when the electricity flows though your connectors, it runs into the electrode & arc bars and it literally draws the water up to the arc bars. It is literally busting the silver into tiny, tiny nano-sized particles that are suspended in distilled water via the electric charge and there they will remain for quite a long shelf life. You grade the silver by parts per million. Mine is around 10 ppm. Higher ppm doesn't necessarily mean better or more workable product though, because silver will work just the same at lower ppm. Some makers claim it’s indefinitely suspended, but over time some of the larger silver particles may fall out of charge and you can see some of the silver residue on the sides of the container. The best storage container for colloidal silver is a dark colored glass bottle. I just use an old green wine jug for mine.
Silver does have antibacterial, antifungal & antiviral properties. One lady that worked with me, who had some nursing experience, used to laugh at my mad scientist experiments and she didn’t believe silver worked. Knowing that she had some nursing experience I asked her a question. What is the antibacterial solution they often use on critical burn patients? She replied Silvadene. Then I asked her what it was made from. She thought for a moment and said Oh! Well may be she might try some on her houseplants that had some kind of rot going on and they weren’t looking very good. She took a sample from me and used it on her plants. A few days later she told me they were looking a lot better! I reckon after that she decided that may be the snake oil wasn’t so bad after all. She never did tease me much about the silver after that.
Anyway, there are reputable companies that sell colloidal silver, but I would definitely do my homework before I bought from just anyone cause there are a lot of fraudsters and unscrupulous people out there with shoddy products. There is also a condition called Argyria that turns skin blue from too much exposure to silver compounds. I have heard of it happening from people who made there own low quality silver, using less than recommended methods or adding extra ingredients in their solutions, but never from higher quality silver products made with pure distilled water and little or no extra additives. Argyria is not really harmful other than being cosmetically “blue”, but still I wouldn’t want to be called Smurfette LOL.
I’m not afraid to use it though and like I said, it has worked for me on some things, so that’s all that really matters in the end. I made a batch of silver last night and put a couple of cc’s in a nebulizer and gave Doc a short treatment with it tonight. I don’t know how much of it he really absorbed because you can’t actually do a full treatment like you do a person. All I could do is simply wave the mist from the nebulizer in front of his nose and mouth off and on for a bit. He did breathe some of it in because his nose started running a little. He’s resting on my daybed now. If anyone has any experience using a nebulizer on a dog, please let me know, as this is the first time I’ve tried it.
