You mean like those evil bastards at the National Institute of Health?
Colloidal silver as an antimicrobial agent: fact or fiction?
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov...
Yep -- them's would be the ones! Or at least some of the ones.
It's like the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing. They know that silver has healing properties because their own studies tell them so! But then we're told that it's "quackery" and "snake oil" and so on.
But I truly believe it is more sinister than simple ineptitude.
n an agar-well diffusion assay none of the three colloidal silver solutions had any effect on the growth of the test organisms. All tested bacterial strains were sensitive to ciprofloxacin. Colloidal silver 22 ppm showed no bactericidal activity in phenol coefficient tests.
CONCLUSION:
As the tested colloidal silver solutions did not show any antimicrobial effect in vitro on the microorganisms, claims of colloidal silver's antimicrobial potency are misleading and there is no place for it as an antiseptic.
Be careful, if you start to look like a smurf (turn blue) you've taken too much, and your color won't return to normal when you stop taking it.

i love colloidal silver. i use it every time i feel a cold coming on. i never get sick
Argyria is a rare skin condition that can happen if silver builds up in your body over a long time.
It can turn your skin, eyes, internal organs, nails, and gums a blue-gray color, especially in areas of your body exposed to sunlight. That change in your skin color is permanent.
Well the silver doesn't seem to be toxic enough to kill Bakker's followers, and they probably haven't even turned into smurfs yet since that takes a while unless they get high doses, and he hasn't been at this scam long. But Bakker's followers really want to take colloidal silver, they can just find other sources after Jim Bakker's "cure" gets shut down. Bakker's problem was his claims went too far. The other sources just need to be careful about what claims they make, and they can keep selling colloidal silver if their claims don't go too far.

We should protect those stupid enough to buy into old Jim.

Wasn't the dude given a handshake prison term a while ago for being a con man? Yet he got out and went right back to it, just in a lower key. I say, put him back in jail where he can help make hand sanitizer for the state of New York.

There is absolutely no doubt of the healing qualities of silver. The question is why so many are so determined to convince us otherwise...

I work in healthcare. Silver is used all over the place.
It's not curing anyone's HIV...
There is a difference between saying silver has an effect, and him claiming he can cure things.

I'm a huge silver fan, but I would not take it orally for the coronavirus.
I am. I'm combining hemorrhoidal silver, tumorlick and moleasses into the most powerful anti-everything on the planet. Want some?
