Colloidal Silver – What’s the Deal?

By ad | February 11, 2009

Are you familiar with colloidal silver? Many people take colloidal silver for various reasons.  It is non-toxic and can help in protection against viruses, fungi, and bacteria.  It is also used to treat certain skin ailments such as rashes as well as helping to heal skin abrasions and minor cuts.

Definition of Colloidal Silver

Colloid. A state or diversion of matter in which large molecules or aggregates of molecules that do not precipitate, and that measure between 1 and 100 nm, are dispersed in another medium. In a suspension colloid particles are insoluble and the medium may be solid, liquid, or gas. In an emulsion colloid the particles are usually water, and the medium is any of several complex hydrophilic, organic substances that become evenly dispersed among the particles of water.

    I’m confused. You said: “I learned that colloidal minerals and/or elements are not soluble and was too large to penetrate the cells of the body, thus trapping them in the bloodstream which is how the product works.”
    However, if it can’t penetrate the cells of the body, how does it get out of the intestines and into the blood stream to begin with? If it can get into the blood stream, it had to penetrate cells to get there, right? So couldn’t it also leave through the kidneys which filter the blood, since it somehow ended up in the blood?
