Guest guest Posted January 30, 2002 Report Share Posted January 30, 2002 Sounds like another fast cure for folks who don't eat real food.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2002 Report Share Posted January 30, 2002 I'm not all that knowledgable about colloidal silver personally. However, I found this website (http://www.clspress.com/silver.html) that you might find interesting. It discusses issues of historical use and potential toxicity. It's been in use for much longer than 40-50 years, but it's not exactly a " traditional remedy. " It appears that it's been used as a deliberate medication for a little over 100 years. The issue of inadvertant dosing via local food, water or even geological vapors is another issue. I doubt if anybody really knows about that. I also ran across a website (selling colloidal silver) that claimed that the Hunza population's supposed health and longevity might be attributable to the unusually high concentrations of silver in the region's water. I suspect that a critical look at their diet and physical activities might have yielded more plausible causes of any longevity, but hey...anything's possible.

Guest guest Posted January 30, 2002 Report Share Posted January 30, 2002 Thanks - I was led to believe that the silver in Seasilver was not colloidal, but some form of ionic silver that was less potent. I definitely want to cut down on it and find an alternative. ----- Original Message ----- From: Kroyer ' ' Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2002 8:07 AM Subject: RE: Re: Seasilver...yes, silver I'm not all that knowledgable about colloidal silver personally.
