What is Colloidal Silver?

I first heard of it last spring when my doe gave birth to triplets.
Apparently it is great to have on the homestead for emergencies and first aid.
Colloidal silver is a homeopathic remedy, that consists of drinking water infused with particles of silver ion via a battery-charge.
Colloidal Silver is an antibacterial often used as a disinfectant. It was used in wound dressings during the Civil War.
You can buy Colloidal Silver online, in a health food store, or make your own rather easily.

Uses for Colloidal Silver

Wound Care
I am going to experiment with Colloidal Silver and Melaleuca and make a wound salve.
Maybe Frankincense? Problem being I would need volunteers with wounds to try it out.

Anti Bacterial
Proven effective against antibiotic resistant microbes like SARS and MRSA
Colloidal Silver also enhances antibiotics

Anti Viral
Fights Small Pox, Herpes, Hep B (source)
OK Small Pox isn’t really a problem today, but herpes and Hep B could be.

FOOD POISONING OR DYSENTERY
Take 1 Tbsp. (every hour) without holding under tongue. Take on an empty stomach

WATER PURIFICATION
1-2 Tbsp per gallon of water.
There has been a study to show that Colloidal Silver IS indeed safe to ingest.
