What about Eniva CS (was labeled at 275 ppm)? I've used this several times in the past and it did seem to be quite effective, even able to absorb through the skin. They do not supply technical bulletins anymore, but I have seen them a few years ago. I won't pretend to be an expert on CS, only through experience. I'd like to see some serious testing of their products. Also, I'm having my doubts about CS working all that well against certain infections such as urinary tract infections. My brother-in-law has cancer with recurring infections. The latest landed him in the hospital with a systemic infection (very serious). They immediately put in on abx and it cleared up in a few days. He went home and began ingesting large quantities last week of CS. Tonight I understand he's back in with an infection. I fear this time it may even be a Staph infection from his hospital stay. I've heard some say beyond the stomach and GI tract, CS does little for acute infections of this type. I'm starting to lean toward that hypothesis as my son's ear infection this week was very severe. We are no strangers to ear infections. Usually, it can be cleared up within 12 hours after dropping CS into the ears. We have also used GSE in oil as well. However, this time the infection went beyond the outer ear and into the inner ear, which the CS could not reach. Reluctanly I had no choice other than bring him to ER for which he was prescribed TriMox (amoxicillin) for the first time in about 2 1/2 years. Within 24 hours, the infection and pain subsided and he's now feeling well. Is it possible the most efficacious type of CS is in fact some of the specialty producers of CS such as Aqua Argentica or New Silver Solution that claim their products have special properties (magnetic, energized etc.) do in fact work much better than making your own? I know that external infections are handled very well with even the most primitive(?) methods of 'home brewed' CS, but internally I have yet to see any form of CS rid an internal (beyond the stomach) infection equal to or better than standard abx, or even work at all in our experience. In my son's case, it was not worth the risk experimenting which may result in permanent ear damage or worse yet, mastoiditis or even menningitis. As I've stated, using CS is not new to me, but I am not an authority on the subject other than by anecdotal. http://coralconnection.net/cci/colloidalsilver.html
