Re: CS>nutra silver?
I haven't done reseach on the gel but people say it does work. [I don't make that stuff up ]...and the formula came from someone who used it sucessfully for years on bed sores and such. From my limited applications tried, I'll generally agree and also never claimed it would work, just that you can make it a lot cheaper than you can buy it already made and have control over what's in it. I have a few theories why it does work [for those who say it does] when maybe it might not due to a possible lack of free silver ions and being a semi solid that encapsulates particles. The gel itself absorbs liquids like mad. As the surface dries, it wants to replace those liquids and there is one place to replace them from. "Drawing poultice" ..and whatever alive that gets drawn out, dies. It is also quite water soluble. " Particulate transport" at the liquid interface. Silver in any form will kill germs, the more surface area [the smaller] , the better, the purer the silver the better. There is nothing more pure or smaller than a single ion. Since it does contain water, silver ions may survive in the gel. Even if they form molecular compounds with impurities, there may be some sort of ion exchange resin effect at work in the presence of other organic compounds. Mixing some ground Aluminum into the gel just might make it Very active and loaded with a continuous generation of Silver ions..like a wet Curad Silver bandaid. Shelf life? questionable. Ode Perhaps Ode has some comment on his gel, whether it's primarily an ionic or a covalent sort of goop; I've read it works, anyhow. Take care, M.

Re: CS>nutra silver?
Hi Kathryn, I looked at NutraSilver's website; down at the very bottom it says: "...These statements have not been ... by the FDA ..." which, the usual standard disclaimers aside, makes me wonder why all the hype about FDA approved labs, NOT - you'll notice, - product. My general purpose BS detector overheats at this sort of obfuscation. Work in Russia (oops, USSR then) examined finely divided silver in suspensions, and I believe the conclusion was that it wasn't quite so wonderful. OTOH many water filters have used silver plated onto-into charcoal with good antibacterial effects. It would seem there's both a contact effect with 'molecular' silver and possibly another effect with the ionic solution. Silverlon and other silver containing wound dressings purportedly work by ion transport into the affected tissues. Much of Dr. Becker's work was with ionic silver produced electrolytically in-situ, particularly (eewww!) in bone and deep tissue regeneration. Perhaps Ode has some comment on his gel, whether it's primarily an ionic or a covalent sort of goop; I've read it works, anyhow. Take care, M.

Re: CS>nutra silver?
I had not heard of it before, but they have a great website, with lots ofinteresting info. I called them up and talked to a man who was very helpful, in a way, what with trade secrets to protect and all. He said it is the "next generation" colloidial silver, and it is 3600 ppm, not salts, or ions. I looked on the lab reports site and could not find NutraSilver. But if it is not salts or ions, it would have to be protein, wouldn't it? I would not take this product, since I do not know what it is made from, I would rather make my own. kathryn On Aug 15, 2008, at 4:01 AM, wrote: Hi ALL, I have some questions ..
