I'd welcome links to any human studies on this. Or animal studies. I looked into this a couple of weeks ago and just couldn't find anything. I believe the following is known.

• Silver does have anti-biotic, anti-viral and anti-fungal properties. It's why it was used as silverware.
• Silver has been shown to kill bacteria and viruses in test tubes.
• Silver can indeed turn your skin blue.
• It's also thought that it can block nutrient absorption in the gut.
• I couldn't find any human studies.

Obviously, there are no patents on silver so big Pharma is not about to test silver products, except to conduct a disinformation campaign against all homeopathic treatment methods. You are on your own to do the research, such as it is, and decide why this remedy has been around for over a hundred years. Before big Pharma came up with huge money making manufactured antibiotics, silver was in use to treat a wide variety of bacteria, viruses, and other diseases. Now it’s taboo. When I mentioned silver to my private physician, the first thing he said was it will turn your skin blue. That’s all he knew about it. Bottom line each must make up their own mind.

I can attest to a personal experience with silver being a very potent antibiotic. While disposing of some left-behind flash powder (my father-in-law was an FFL and an avid gun collector), and upon attempting to burn it off, it literally torched up and burned the skin off my hand. The doctors at the burn unit, after 2 shots of dilaudid 🤪 they applied a silver-infused padding over the area of the burn. One week later, with no infection whatsoever, new skin. I can’t personally attest that colloidal products do much of anything, I know VERY WELL that silver saved my hand. Take that for what it’s worth.

When I had my hip surgeries the bandages they gave me contained silver.
