What does Colloidal Silver Do?


It has been known for thousands of years that silver can be an effective anti-microbial agent. Silver is capable of killing single celled organisms such as bacteria, yeasts, moulds and fungi. It is generally accepted these days that silver affects the enzyme that is responsible for the cells breathing, thereby suffocating the cells. Due to the way that silver acts on these micro-organisms they do not become immune to silver as they do with antibiotics, which actually poison the cell. As well as killing single celled organisms, modern science has also found that silver seems to increase healing effects on plants and animals if applied to wounds or sores.

An American pharmaceutical company manufactures bandages impregnated with silver gauze for this reason. Many users of colloidal silver have suggested that it reduces scarring, although this has not been scientifically validated at this point. 

So what is Colloidal Silver?
The word colloid is a term used in chemistry to define a state of matter. Rather than go through all the technical jargon, let's try to simplify this and put it this way: The word Colloid is a name given to very tiny particles that are suspended or "float" in something else. A practical example of a colloid, is fog. If you look closely at fog or steam in a sauna, you can see the extremely tiny droplets of water floating around in the air. They just move around aimlessly, but never stop. Taking this another step we can see that colloidal silver is simply minute little clusters of pure silver atoms small enough to float in water. What keeps the particles in this state is their electrical charge. They all have the same positive charge which repels them from each other and keeps them from falling to the bottom or clumping. This is exactly the same principle as like poles of magnets repelling each other when brought close enough together. Early scientists discovered the colloid state in the 1800's and found it widely throughout nature. Our blood and milk are good examples of naturally occurring colloids.

What do I need to know about Colloidal Silver?
There are a number of things that are important to understand fully when it comes to colloidal silver. Firstly, not all colloidal silvers on the market are the same. They vary in quality and the way they are manufactured. A couple of brands are excellent, some are good, some are bad and there are actually products in the market place that can be hazardous. 
To keep it simple and leaving out all the science, follow these points:

X  NEVER USE SILVER MADE CHEMICALLY
X  DO NOT USE SILVER CONTAINING "PROTEIN"
X
  DO NOT USE IONIC SILVER
X
  DO NOT USE SILVER MADE WITH "ZAPPERS" OR "GENERATORS"

When looking for silver to purchase, only consider a product if it meets the following requirements:

  • Is professionally made in a proper laboratory
  • Each bottle is marked with batch number, use by date and parts per million (ppm)
  • Contains no additives of any kind

What do I do with Colloidal Silver? 
As we have already found, Colloidal silver is highly effective against a wide range of micro-organisms. Some quick research on the Internet will turn up some incredible statements concerning colloidal silver, both for and against its use. Australian Colloidal Laboratories has done extensive testing with the colloidal silver they manufacture and has determined that their product will kill organisms including: escherichia coli, pseudomonas aeruginosa, Legionella pneumophila, staphylococcus aureus, herpes virus 1&2, pseudo-rabies viruses, influenzae A, bacillus typhous, bovine rotavirus, poliovirus type 1 and salmonella. The governments in Australia and some other western countries have passed legislation which make it no longer possible to offer any advice on usage of colloidal silver including dosage and recommendations. One might initially wonder why this has occurred, however it becomes clear when the Pan pharmaceuticals debacle and the truth behind Codex Alimentarius is fully understood. 

Who are Australian Colloidal Laboratories? 
Australian Colloidal Laboratories are part of the "CeeCeez Group".  CeeCeez Pty Ltd has spent years developing highly specialised equipment to provide safe and efficient disinfection and sanitisation of water. The further refining of some of the principles developed has enabled Australian Colloidal Laboratories to have its very own completely unique proprietary process for producing colloidal silver. This method of manufacture is completely different to anything currently used by any anyone, anywhere. 
 

Conventional methods of electrically producing colloids involve placing silver electrodes in a container of water and applying an electrical current to them. This method works with varying degrees of success, from not at all, as the case with electronic gizmo's sold over the Internet, to large expensive devices which manage to produce some amounts of colloidal particles. 
Australian Colloidal Laboratories is in possession of technology far different and more highly advanced than what is used conventionally. In a grossly simplified explanation, water is firstly passed through a complex purification system, then restructured and only then passed through the proprietary process from where the colloidal silver dispersion comes out in an amazingly pure and beneficial form. The additional use of radionics and scalar waves completes the process. 
Australian Colloidal Laboratories has, by innovation become world leaders in the area of colloidal silver production.  To contact CeeCeez for more info mailto:acl@ceeceez.com.au
