Colloidal Silver is a natural agent with antibiotic properties, but without having the negative side effects that are part of the traditional ‘remedies’. It is nothing but natural silver in a colloid state in distilled water. But what sounds simple has a vast variety of uses. It’s cheap and it works very well!
What you are about to read here could improve your health forever. This is what Inspired Mind is all about anyway, but very little has amazed me more than Colloidal Silver.
This powerful agent has a multitude of uses and applications, yet no known side-effects. It is inexpensive to buy, but you can also make your own.
Interesting reading material is provided at the end of the page, which allows you to further learn about it — if at all necessary.
I am convinced the following will not only benefit you, but also your children, pets and other animals, including friends and relatives. 😉
Enjoy!
What is Colloidal Silver?
It is Silver suspended in a distilled water solution. Silver is a powerful, natural, universal prophylactic and antibiotic. It is a natural disinfectant and broad-spectrum anti-microbial agent that kills bacteria, viruses, molds, fungi, and parasites and over 650 disease-causing organisms.
Colloidal silver is considered harmless in any concentration for internal and external use. A daily dose Colloidal Silver improves the immune system resulting in more energy, vitality, quicker healing, and a reduction of bodily toxins.
Colloidal Silver has been well documented as the best broad spectrum antibiotic available. Silver is toxic to all known disease-causing organisms without being toxic to you. Many forms of bacteria, fungi and viruses utilize specific enzymes in their metabolism.
Colloidal Silver acts as a catalyst, effectively disabling the enzyme with no effect
on “friendly bacteria.” It is effective against infections, colds and influenza. It is the ideal source of silver for maintaining good health and preventing illnesses.
Colloidal Silver is tasteless, odorless and non-stinging to sensitive tissues. It can be taken orally or applied directly to cuts, scrapes, open sores, burns, warts or used to rinse acne, eczema and skin irritations. It can be gargled, dropped into the ears or eyes, used vaginally, analy or atomized and inhaled into the nose or lungs. Colloidal Silver has no known side effects and no recorded cases of drug interaction. Best of all, resistant strains of bacteria and fungi do not develop as they can with conventional antibiotics. Colloidal Silver is one of the safest, most effective all around germ fighters available — even for children.
In Practice:
Colloidal silver kills all disease causing organisms, in six minutes or less, upon contact even those pleomorphic, no matter how they mutate. There is no known microbe that is not killed by this colloid in laboratory experiments in six minutes. Colloidal silver is one of the safest and most beneficial health products available.
• It does not accumulate in the body, it leaves via the bladder.
• It has no known drug interactions.
• You cannot overdose, regardless of the amount.
• It is completely non-toxic.
• It is non-addictive.
• It has no known side effects.
• The body never develops a tolerance.
Suggested Uses:
- As a household disinfectant.
- As a sterilizing agent for drinking water.
- As a food preservative for canned goods or emergency water storage.
- As a topical treatment for cuts, scrapes, minor burns, rashes, athlete’s foot, etc.
- Excellent as an underarm deodorant!

A definition of colloidal
Everything living is naturally colloidal. The term colloidal was coined in the late 1800’s by an English chemist named Thomas Graham. By “colloidal” he indicated the following attributes: an element that would easily crystallize, ( form the nucleus of a liquid crystal) would easily enter & exit membranes of animals, unlike non-crystalline (amorphous) materials, which will not, or not easily pass through animal membranes, and therefore cannot be utilized by animals. Amorphous means not having definite form, or a distinct crystalline structure.
We are colloidal!
When a plant or animal consumes water, that water is then structured primarily into highly organized octagonal shaped liquid crystals, very few of the water molecules consumed remain unorganized. Living things accomplish this by using highly charged colloids, which form the nuclei around which the highly organized crystalline lattice forms.
In other words all the cells of the body or other living things use “charged colloidal minerals” to organize water molecules into a form that may set the stage for the basic building blocks of cells to form, as well as for other processes. We are mostly water by volume. Water by volume is the greatest component from which cells form. We are made up of a multitude a various cells. Physically speaking, we are our cells! Our cells serve us die and are replaced at an almost unimaginable rate every moment we are alive. In order to be healthy our cells need the ingredients to do their job. Our cells work tirelessly, and only ask that they be given what they need to do their job. Although this is a simplified explanation, you can easily speculate just how important positively charged colloidal minerals combined with water are to all living things.
A definition for colloidal silver
Simply put, colloidal silver is pure elemental silver that is evenly distributed into a second substance, i.e.water. The silver is not “dissolved” but “suspended” evenly through-out the solution as a result of the positive electrical charge that is attached to each particle of silver as it is electrically sintered off of the silver electrode into the water.
The charged silver particles (silver ions) form into aggregates of atoms (micro-clusters) of silver that interact with each other and create a synergistic effect, each electrically charged particle of the micro-cluster has a magnetic field, together the particles create a phenomena called the “Brownian movement”, it is a sort of random oscillating motion. In other words the micro-clusters are in motion, the clusters also have a positive charge and repel each other, that is how they stay suspended and evenly distributed in the water. The water appears to go through a molecular restructuring, which means the electromagnetic field produced to create the colloidal process, causes the water molecules to align into very small organized chains. The water is then in a optimum state that allows a myriad of geometric lattice structures be generated around the highly charged collloidal silver which forms the nucleus of a specific geometrically shaped liquid crystals. The importance of this factor cannot be over stated, as you will see later.
When I mention colloidal silver it is electro-colloidal that I am referring to. Properly prepared electro-colloidal silver is basically the smallest form of elemental silver before losing its identity as silver. The silver particles have a positive electrical charge and there is no other element or substance present.
In order to produce Electro-colloidal silver, at least 99.99% pure silver is placed into water, an electrical charge is induced into the silver, as a result particles of silver are electrically sintered off of the metallic silver rods or wire into the water. In the water the silver forms into sub-microscopic clusters (atomic micro-clusters) optimally .01 to .001 microns which is 10 to 100 angstroms. An angstrom is a unit of measure, equal to one ten-billionth of a meter. This is what is referred to when identifying how small the particle size of colloidal silver is.
Parts per million is a way of expressing how much silver there is. The total amount or weight is identified as parts per million (PPM).
The capillaries of the body are approximately 4-9 microns, much much larger than colloidal silver, which is why the body has no problem eliminating properly prepared electro-colloidal silver. The silver micro-clusters are larger than most molecules but smaller than cells. The silver is too small to be filtered out of the solution but not yet considered dissolved. When silver is completely dissolved the Brownian motion, positive charge and strong magnetic field are no longer present.
What’s the difference?
At this point it is important to mention that there are many other forms of silver. There are generally five production techniques used in these silver preparations. An understanding is important because although these other preparations are referred to as colloidal silver, in fact they are not. There are major differences. Although there are microscopic particles of silver present in each of these preparation types, they do not produce the same wide range of germicidal antibiotic and other noted effects when used in the body or in laboratory testing. Some are noted for producing adverse reactions. For instance it is “silver salts” such as silver nitrate that are attributed to causing the blue-ing of the skin, not electro-colloidal silver.

of the Immune System.
Kinesiology testing or muscle testing is an effective way to
determine dosage.
Remember, this is a safe and pure mineral element and you cannot
overdose. There are no known side effects. A few people may feel
achy and sluggish on the third or fourth day after they begin
taking Colloidal Silver. This is called a “Healing Crisis”. When
the body is sloughing off huge amounts of toxins at once, the
elementary organs can become overloaded. Drink lots of water and
the symptoms will lessen rapidly.
EXTERNALLY: Apply directly to cuts, scrapes and open sores. A
Q-tip makes a good applicator or put a few drops on a Band-Aid and
wear. over cuts, sores, scrapes, warts abrasions. Daub directly on
skin cancers, eczema or itchy areas, or for acne, mosquito bites or
any skin problem.
ATOMIZER / INHALER: For nose / lung problems spray into nose while
inhaling.
EYES: Put a few drops in each night before bed. (It’s safe even
for baby’s eyes. )
COLONICS / DOUCHES: Add 2 ounces to pure water.
TO PURIFY WATER: Add one ounce per gallon, shake well, wait six
minutes, shake again, wait 6 minutes and drink.
DIGESTIVE AID: Drink two quarts of the above mixture over a days
time, especially with meals, to help eliminate fermentation.
NATURAL FOOD PRESERVATIVE: Use in canning at 1/4 tsp. per quart.
FOR PLANTS: For all bacterial, fungal, and viral attacks on plants,
simply spray diluted silver on the leaves, and add to soil water.
Mix 1 ounce per quart of water.
FOR ANIMALS: Depending on the size of the animal, use a dropper to
put the Colloidal Silver down the throat, or just put it in your
pet’s food or water.
