How does Colloidal Silver work?
Colloidal silver can kill certain germs by binding to and destroying proteins.Are there safety concerns?
Colloidal silver is likely unsafe for use. The silver in colloidal silver products gets deposited in vital organs such as the skin, liver, spleen, kidney, muscle, and brain. This can lead to an irreversible bluish skin discoloration that first appears in the gums. It can also stimulate melanin production in skin, and areas exposed to the sun will become increasingly discolored.Do not use colloidal silver if:
- You are pregnant or breast-feeding.
