Unlocking Nature’s Secret: Colloidal Silver History & Powerful Benefits for Health and Beauty
People still ask me, what is Colloidal Silver?
Well, if you have to ask then you are already missing out on one of nature’s best immune system aides and a highly effective antibiotic.
Colloidal Silver is the only antibiotic known to reportedly kill all types of viruses, funguses and bacteria. Colloidal Silver is also the only antibiotic known to be perfectly harmless to all parts of the body. While the liver and kidneys can be harmed by other antibiotics, Colloidal silver promotes healing. It does not interfere with any other medication and can be used in conjunction with all other prescription medications. There has never been known to have been a silver/drug interaction of any kind.

History of Silver
For millennia, silver has been recognized for its remarkable ability to prevent and treat a wide array of ailments without any reported adverse effects.
The saying “born with a silver spoon in your mouth” has some historical basis. Upper-class royal families had access to silver tableware, cutlery, and goblets. It is believed that small particles of silver rubbed off and entered their bodies, protecting them from certain viruses and diseases. This practice dates back to the Ancient Greeks and was passed down to royalty and members of their courts. Through generations of using silverware, these individuals benefited from the silver particles that entered their bodies, reducing their chances of contracting infectious illnesses.
These royals were later called “Blue Bloods” because their skin had a blue tint due to the accumulation of minute amounts of pure metallic silver. Meanwhile, ordinary people who used standard dishes and iron utensils were more susceptible to illness, while the royals enjoyed protection from infectious diseases from an early age.
Around the same time, doctors discovered that silver sutures could prevent infections and gangrene in internal wounds. Unfortunately, this treatment was only accessible to the wealthy.
In the United States, Colloidal Silver was widely used from the late 1800s until 1938. It was prescribed for numerous diseases and infections, serving as the primary treatment
Silver Today
Some individuals, depending on their age, might recall their grandmothers placing a silver coin in a milk bottle to prevent spoilage. We performed a similar experiment at home, allowing our family to witness the results firsthand. We placed two glasses of milk on the windowsill; one had 20ml of Colloidal Silver added, while the other did not. Upon inspection the following day, the milk with Colloidal Silver remained unchanged, while the milk without it had curdled and emitted an unpleasant odor.
In recent times, a growing number of people have begun to appreciate the advantages of Colloidal Silver, with many new users discovering its benefits. Through research, testimonials, and increasing skepticism towards chemical-laden medications, people are becoming more informed about the remarkable health properties of Colloidal Silver. Unlike pharmaceutical antibiotics, which can lead to resistance, the human body will never develop a resistance to silver.
Storage/Shelf Life
Our Colloidal Silver is packaged in amber glass bottles, as glass is the sole material capable of preserving the substance for extended periods, provided it is stored under appropriate conditions. Storing Colloidal Silver in plastic containers is inadvisable, as the charged silver particles may be gradually extracted from the solution over time. Additionally, it is not recommended to store Colloidal Silver in refrigerators or freezers, since their electrical charges can also result in the removal of the silver particles.
Our Silver/Directions
Our Colloidal Silver is produced using eight custom-designed, high-tech machines that consistently generate top-quality colloids with exceptionally small ‘Nano’ particle sizes. The machines test the water quality before initiating the process and will halt production if the water is unsuitable. If inappropriate water is used, silver particles will eventually attach to electrolytes, leading to ‘agglomeration.’ This results in clumps that lose their suspension and settle at the bottom. We use distilled water from our industrial distiller, which contains minimal electrolytes. By utilizing entirely pure water, as we do, agglomeration is avoided, and the silver solution can be stored for years. In emergency or apocalyptic situations, any water can be used to make silver, but it is essential to consume the solution quickly before particle clumping begins.
Our Colloidal Silver is odorless, colorless, and virtually tasteless. We recommend consuming approximately 20-30ml daily for immune support. If you prefer to store it in your medicine cabinet for use only when feeling unwell, we advise taking a double dose during such times. Use it at the first sign of symptoms, and Colloidal Silver may help alleviate cold/flu symptoms, stomach bugs, and toothaches.
Sometimes a person taking the recommended daily dose may still find that they will still get the occasional infection. In this case, they can triple or even quadruple the recommended dose to between 60-120ml, however, very few people ever need a quadruple dose. There has never been any harmful dosage of Colloidal Silver. Unlike prescription antibiotics, it is not possible to overdose on it.
Taking Colloidal Silver daily is like having a second immune system. It lessens the load on the body’s natural immune system and effectively kills the many bugs present throughout the body. It will also lessen the toxicity due to the average amount of germ, virus and fungus activity that occurs naturally in the body.
After initially starting Colloidal Silver daily, some people can feel achy and sometimes sluggish on the third/fourth day. this will all depend on the ‘state’ of your body when you begin. If you have a lot of unwanted toxins to remove from the body you may well get symptoms. This is called a healing crisis or more commonly known as the “Herx Reaction”. When the body kills off many toxins at once, the eliminative organs can become overloaded so it is recommended to drink lots of extra, clean freshwater this will lessen the symptoms massively.
Anything from one week to one month depending on the individual after stopping Colloidal Silver the effectiveness is finally lost and is eliminated through the kidneys, the lymphatic system and the bowel.
Science Behind Silver
Colloidal Silver is a natural substance with antibiotic, antifungal, antiviral, antibacterial, and antimicrobial properties. It can effectively eliminate the oxygen-metabolizing enzyme of any one-celled disease-causing pathogen in approximately six minutes.
David Hooper offers a scientific explanation for this phenomenon. One-celled organisms rely on a different method of oxygen metabolism, which is their vulnerability. Colloidal Silver functions as a catalyst, influencing the reaction rate of these organisms without chemically reacting with body tissues. Its mere presence near a virus, fungus, or bacteria (one-celled pathogens) immediately impairs their oxygen-metabolizing enzyme, effectively suffocating and killing them, usually within six minutes. The immune and lymphatic systems then clear the dead organism from the body.
Pharmaceutical antibiotics typically target only five or six types of germs, and many bacteria are becoming increasingly resistant to these antibiotics. These resistant bacteria are often referred to as “superbugs.” However, they cannot develop resistance to Colloidal Silver. Another issue with pharmaceutical antibiotics is their tendency to destroy many essential enzymes in the human body. In contrast, Colloidal Silver does not harm or disable the body’s beneficial enzymes and actually promotes healing.
Misinformation In The Mainstream
Unfortunately, there is a lot of bad misinformation about Colloidal Silver in the mainstream. If you type Colloidal Silver into a common search engine such as Google the results you see are scaremongering and simply untrue. Luckily many people see past this and do their own independent research. According to Google and any mainstream articles, there is no scientific proof that silver works and that silver has no known function in the body which is a total lie. I advise people to research outside the mainstream and look at the hundreds of testimonials from all sorts of people, of all ages, from all over the world.
The other story we see is ‘The Blue Man’. This is another story you will come across in the attempt to scare you away from Colloidal Silver and its amazing benefits, let’s remember Colloidal Silver sales don’t make big pharma any money 😉
Overuse of Colloidal Silver has only one effect, and that is ‘Argyria’ which is the development of a grey-blue tinge of the fingernails and the skin. What has happened here is simply that the body starts to store the excess silver in the tissue and collagen, which make up the major part of the fingernails. This condition however has no known detrimental effect and will disappear once the Colloidal Silver intake is reduced or discontinued for a while. Not to mention Argyria can only occur if the Colloidal Silver particles are large. The latest methods and especially the latest up to date machines that produce Colloidal Silver uses very high voltage electricity. The silver is stripped from the electrode in a particle size that is a thousand times smaller than the liver’s ability to filter. Argyria was very real in the past, but now, it is not a problem unless someone drinks homemade large particle Colloidal Silver.
Our machines produce Colloidal Silver particle sizes of anywhere between 0.05 and 0.010 of a micron. The smaller the particles the easier it is for the body to absorb resulting in no build-up.
The Placebo Effect
As with all natural medicines, the mental attitude of the person taking the Colloidal Silver has a lot to do with how well it works for the individual. It works on animals just as well and they don’t have any belief systems, it will also work on plants as they don’t have any mental attitudes either. So yes, with humans there might be a ‘mental’ element to healing but in the case of the all-powerful, scientifically proven silver, it’s much more about it actually doing the job brilliantly!

Topical Use
While Colloidal Silver is mainly used through daily oral use, it also has benefits when applied directly to open wounds and sores as it can eliminate surface infections and does not sting or burn. For any skin issue, Colloidal Silver should be used topically…as well as orally. Other antiseptics sting when applied to a wound because they are killing the surrounding tissue cells as well as killing the germs. This causes the damaged area to actually become larger. Colloidal Silver kills the topical germs within six minutes and does not harm any surrounding tissue. This is one reason that scar tissue is reduced when using Colloidal Silver. For very serious bandaged wounds it is recommended to soak the bandages in Colloidal Silver. For stubborn things like moles and warts – the area needs to be saturated for some time.
Our Colloidal Silver Cream
We here at Crystal Health & Beauty have developed an emollient Colloidal Silver Cream with natural oils and butters with medicinal properties. This can be directly applied to any problem area of the body, for more stubborn skin conditions we recommend using the cream and then spraying our Colloidal Silver atomiser spray over the top. Ideal for eczema, psoriasis, rashes and other skin complaints. For cuts and abrasions, you can use the cream or apply Colloidal Silver directly to the open wound and onto any dressing or plaster used.
Dr R. Beckers Studies
The author of “The Body Electric”, Dr R.Becker, noted in his studies a correlation between low silver levels and illness: Those who had low silver levels frequently were sick more often with colds, flu, fever and other illnesses. He said he believes that silver deficiency is the reason for the improper functioning of the immune system and that silver is critical for the destruction of bacteria and viruses. Becker’s experiments conclude that silver works on a wide range of bacteria without any side effects and without any damage to the cells of the body.
Colloidal Silver and healing: Becker also states that the silver ion was doing something more than killing disease-causing organisms. It was, he observed, facilitating major growth stimulation of injured tissues. When human fibroblast cells, which are common throughout the body, were exposed to silver, they differentiated. That is, they changed into an embryonic general cell, able to multiply at a great rate and then change into the specialised cells of the organ or tissue that had been injured. Even in patients over the age of 50 years, tissues healed as easily as a child’s tissues.
Colloidal State and Cancer: Again Becker concluded that in the presence of silver ions, cancer cells change back to normal cells regardless of their location in the body. He concluded that the presence of silver ions regenerates tissues and eliminates cancerous cells as well as eliminating other abnormal cells.
Other Uses of Colloidal Silver
- Preservative – Add to food products and condiments and stir in very well. It’ll stop the potential for salmonella growth or food poisoning. You will still need to store it correctly ie. in a fridge and in a sealed container but the silver will help it store longer, remain fresher and benefit digestion.
- Digestion Aid – Put 10-20ml of Colloidal Silver into the drink accompanying your meal. As the food is digested, the presence of Colloidal Silver will keep the food from putrefying in the digestive tract, killing any germs that may have been ingested with the food, and leaving the food more usable within the body. Also, this should reduce or maybe even eliminate flatulence.
- Baths – Add to baths for skin benefits and serious skin issues
- Swimming pool upkeep – Use colloidal silver in a swimming pool, can help keep paddling pools clean and from going green.
- Hand Sanitiser – Can be applied to dirty hands to kill bacteria and germs.
- Antibacterial Type Spray – For kitchen worktops etc.
Veterinary Uses Of Colloidal Silver
The following conditions in animals, birds and fish have been successfully treated with Colloidal Silver:
- Bacteria and parasites in house pets, farm animals and birds
- Parvovirus in dogs
- Revival of belly-up goldfish
- Hoof trouble/skin trouble in horses
‘Colloidal Silver is not only a way of prevention now, but may possibly be our best choice to store for future use.’ – Unknown
