People have been successfully using colloidal silver as medicine for thousands of years. Although it’s not as popular today, holistic doctors still use it for its many health benefits. But, what is colloidal silver good for? Keep reading to learn why you need colloidal silver in your home!
Colloidal silver was widely used clear up into the early 20th century. The discovery of antibiotics became more popular and colloidal silver phased out. In ancient times people used silver cups and tableware to prevent the spread of disease. It was also used to prevent spoilage of food. Today, it’s still called silverware even though it’s mostly made of stainless steel.
Argyria is a very rare condition that turns the skin blue and cannot be reversed. It’s caused either by consuming improperly made silver or consuming too much silver. Which is what happened to this unfortunate man.
Some reports claim the royal family used to always eat silver to prevent illness. After many years of wear and tear on the silver, it started to flake and enter their food and drinks. It eventually turned their skin blue due to argyria and that’s where they get their name “blue blood.”
Colloidal silver solutions are safe and are highly effective. It combats bacteria, fungal infections, and viruses. Antibiotics are only effective against bacteria and not fungi or viruses. It’s effective for those who are resistant to antibiotics. Plus, it doesn’t attack the good bacteria in your gut.
Benefits of Colloidal Silver
Years ago I ended up with a stye on my eye, I occasionally get these when I’m not getting enough sleep. I guess it’s my body’s way of telling me it needs more sleep. A stye is a painful red bump that lies near the edge of the eyelid. Unfortunately, it lasts for weeks even up to a month, it’s very painful and extremely embarrassing. I woke up one morning with a stye and my mother told me about the benefits of using silver and gave me a bottle. I was desperate to get rid of it so I rubbed some on my eyelid before bed. The next morning it was nearly gone, now I’m a true believer in the benefits of silver.

Colloidal Silvers Comeback
With the discovery of Penicillin colloidal silver they eventually vanished from the market. Pharmaceutical companies couldn’t patent it for medicinal use and charge outrageous prices. Just like their other big marking promotions (as seen on television) to profit from it. Eventually, pharmaceuticals became more popular.
It was once widely used in hospitals as the most common antibiotic and antiseptic. They still use it today for creams, wound dressings, and medical devices. It has a low toxicity, minimal risks, and helps repair wounds resistant to healing.
Colloidal silver is making a big comeback. Especially as a natural alternative to pharmaceutical drugs. It’s safe because it’s produced by electrically combining pure water with silver. There are many different silver products on the market. However, make sure you are buying a quality brand of colloidal silver.
