Hello, I'm a new subscriber to this list, having arrived here by a very circuitous route over a few years of reading about colloidal silver and how to make it. And how not to make it. Marshall has been a lot of help recently in this respect.
I'm sure this has already been discussed, but without being able to consult the archives, I'd like to ask this anyway: I'm looking, as is everyone else probably, for the best way to make colloidal silver. I'm assuming that colloidal content is preferable to ionic content. At least one website claims that it is not possible to make good colloidal silver at home, as the process is too complicated. If that is true, then something else has been keeping me and my wife cold- and flu- free for the past 3 years, and has cured both of us of lyme disease. :-) I suspect I have been making some mixture of colloidal and ionic. More to the point -- if I am going to use electricity, silver, and distilled water to make CS, what method will produce the highest colloidal content: what voltage, AC or DC, what current? And are there perhaps some other methods, like nanomaterialstore.com, who makes silver nanoparticles that you could perhaps then mix with distilled water, that might be even better? Certainly not cheaper, at $90/gram of their product. Cheers! Dick Goodwin
