Hi Jan,
I am a firm believer that whatever CS you buy or make, the best results
will come from the products that contain the majority of the silver in
the form of silver ions and any particles contained in such solution be
very small, 10 nanometer or less in diameter, smaller is better. I
believe, after much personal study, that products high in silver
particles are basically useless compared to silver ion products. Why?
Because silver, or any mineral for that matter, must be in ionic form
to interact with a biological system. Silver particles are very stable
and are not even effected by our stomachs hydrochloric acid. The acid
content of the blood is very low also and does little to release ions
from the silver particles. Blood is actually slightly basic (non-acid).
pH of the plasma is controlled by the body at 7.4 (7.35 - 7.45). Most
particles are eliminated by the body before they release many ions.
Also, the majority of CS produced by users at home is mainly ionic, and
many great results from many different people have been reported with
that type of silver, ionic. While it may be true that silver ions are
affected by stomach acid and other ions in the blood, our bodies produce
a molecule called metalloprotein that latches on to free metallic ions
and transport them throughout the body and prevent free ions from
affecting it. Our saliva has over 200 different proteins and fully one
third of body proteins are metalloproteins. Thus, reactive ions
(missing one or more electrons) can be transported past the stomach and
through the circulatory system without local reactions. How these
metalloproteins with silver ions interact with pathogens is currently
beyond my knowledge, however, I should have some of those answers soon.
I have been very pleased with the results and the price of the CS
supplied by www.silvershield.biz The price I paid works out to 47 cents
an ounce. I believe they also have available a constant current
generator to produce either a quart or a gallon of CS. There are also
links to various studies and information such as I've included here.
Good Luck
Rob

I have a question that has probably been asked before: If one is a
little intimidated by the technical aspects of making one's own cs,
(or perhaps, too lazy!) what has proved -- in the lister's experience --
to have been a good brand of cs to buy? I know it is expensive, so I
would like to find the best quality for the money I might spend.
