colloidal silver

There is a dressing with Silver in it. Silver Algenate. Heals wounds nicely, not sure I'd drink it though.

Yeah, I'm sure it would be fiber-y going down. Try only to drink liquids.

I meant silver in general

It is proven to kill bacteria, the problem is it can kill the bacteria your body needs/

The same can be said for any "commercial" antibiotic that targets bacteria that are related to the beneficial bacteria in your body.

There will be plenty of information on the internet about how "bad" homeopathic items are. Colloidal Silver, Vitamin C, IV peroxide, chelation therapy.....OH, except after it proves true and "modern medicine" then embraces it, and can make a profit from it.

When taking anti-biotics it's smart to take Acidophillus as well.

A big +1 on this. Also eating REAL yogurt (i.e. yogurt with fruit on the bottom or plain, so the sugars haven't killed the active yogurt cultures) is a good thing.

There's a good reason why the soviets used silver impregnated battle dressings. It's because they didn't have a FDA trying to maximize the profit margins of the big pharma corporations. And, oh yeah, because it worked.

And also it is good in the sinus irrigation rinse bottle if you have a sinus infection.
Now I'm gonna be adding it to der vasserflosser, having warned my dentist ahead of time just to get his reaction.

But, all that isn't why I searched up this thread.
Somewhere less than twenty years ago I started my own high tech colloidal silver production with a canning jar on the kitchen counter, an old cell phone charger, alligator clips, a circle of thin styrofoam cut from a meat package under the jar lid, a .9999 silver coin hack sawed in two, distilled water. And in hardly any time at all learned how to interpret and then control batch quality.
So thought I'd ask, any yall making your own colloidal silver solutions or powder for salves and dressings?

I have basically the same set-up! I just used 2 .9999 silver maples and slits cut in a plastic ball jar lid. I had made gallons with it over the past few years! Another similar thing I discovered is hypochlorous acid. You"may" be able to find a way to generate your own but if you do it wrong you could make actual bleach so i choose to buy a unit that is made for it. I have seen where some people make it using a cheap hydrogen generator that is being produced for health purposes. It's another great liquid for skin infections and wound healing. It also works great for cleaning and disinfecting. Some sources say online you can make the same thing diluting bleach with water but it's not the same thing at all.
