Laura, I think you should consider giving that yellow/ orange CS another chance, as it may be your life line to a future, when other antibiotics fail. (By the way, would you kindly tell us the brand name, where you bought it and other details? That would help us a whole lot in answering your concerns.) The yellow color has a lot to do with the size of the silver particles.
There have been lots of rumors of food coloring here lately, and my guess is that this has to do with is-information from people/ companies who for whatever reason are deliberately doing their best to discredit colloidal silver. Some find CS threatening because it's a very effective, alternative remedy that can be very inexpensive. Please do not hesitate to ask the tough questions, since there are lots of smart people here who can answer these. I think the curiosity you displayed in buying the CS to begin with showed excellant instinct on your part. Trust your first instinct and you will go far. All the best, Reid Laura <pillingergrap...@aol.com> said: I bought a small bottle of 50ppm CS at the healthfood store just to "look" at it (we'd already tried making it once at this point and were curious) and it was a deep yellow. I too wondered why in the world it was yellow when the ingredients said simply "water" and "colloidal silver" (might have said distilled water but not sure). My guess is food coloring too (but shouldn't the label say?) just so people feel like they're taking something medicinal! I gave the little bottle to my sister - she'll probably never use it but since we bought it out of curiosity, knowing we'd try making more of our own, I didn't need it. - - Laura There is no compound of silver that I can find that is orange. It could be a combination of a yellow and a red compound of silver, but I suspect it is just food coloring.
