Faith,
Nano silver is indeed ionic/colloidal silver or something very
similar. Companies are adding nano sized silver particles to products
claiming it kills germs. I think the FDA is worried that this will catch
on with the general populace and think it's ok to make/use colloidal silver
and/or the silver being discharged into our environment as a result of these
industrial uses can be dangerous to our ecosystem.

Hi Everyone.
I'm back again, at least for awhile. I hope all is well with everyone.
I want to mention that a group called the "Center for Food Safety" is
petitioning the FDA to regulate nano-products, including something they
call nano-silver. I emailed them and asked them to define nano-silver
for me. I'm wondering if they are referring to colloidal silver. Here
is part of what they had to say:
"Nano-silver, the most common commercialized nanomaterial, is being used
in numerous food packaging items, cutlery, baby bottles, and kitchen
appliances and cleaners for its "germ-killing" power. This same powerful
strength can destroy important beneficial microorganisms in nature as
well."
I've emailed them asking for proof of what they say but they do not reply.
they are asking me to sign a petition which I am refusing to do. Does
anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
Best Wishes, Faith G.
