I just got this off of MSNBC..........and the mention colloidal silver as
being "snake oil"......
Visitors were urged to buy a supply of colloidal silver $59 for 4
ounces. There were accompanying claims that it kills 100 percent of all one
celled microorganisms ... including anthrax.
The site making the claims lists a phone number in the U.K. that no one
answers, and an e-mail contact address that is invalid.
The Center for Disease Control describes the benefits of colloidal
silver as a myth, and studies have shown it actually can have dreadful side
effects, including turning skin a concrete gray color.
Clelandy says the FTC has recently brought two actions against Web
sites making exaggerated claims about the powers of colloidal silver, and it
is looking at other other sites making such claims.
