One last point. Stomach acid will convert the silver oxide coating on the silver particles to either metallic silver or silver chloride. So Guardian Silver pre-oxidizing their silver particles provides no benefit over any other colloidal silver when taken internally.

All silver particles work by releasing silver ions and it is the silver ions that are anti-microbial. Silver ions are not released from pure silver. In vivo, silver particles form silver oxide on its surface and it is the silver oxide that releases silver ions and provide the anti-microbial activity. Guardian Silver claims to pre-oxidize their silver particles by adding hydrogen peroxide to their CS when making it. That is the sum total of the uniqueness of their CS. There may be some benefit to pre-oxidizing the silver particles vs waiting for it to happen in vivo. Guardian Silver consists of primarily silver particles.
