Sci-Tech Today: Nano, Silver, and You

[stephencarlsbad]

Blue guy made ionic silver not colloidal silver!

[stonewall97]

I have seen many doctors confirm that Colloidal silver WORKS. Why is there a massive effort by the FDA to spread false info. about how bad the silver products are for you? Because they want you addicted to their drugs. “Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it” Hitler

[mssboy2000]

30 ppm is not correct

[agnoses]

Really? Really? Really? Nano silver particles from the sock causing fish embryo mutations? Please take a science class. The concentration of silver in the huge volume of WASTE WATER (i.e. water thatt is treated prior to release into any environment - treated for heavy metals) wouldn't hurt anything in waste water.

@agnoses

any chemical in water in large quantities will hurt fauna of the rivers...not only silver..

that's called pollution, and its happening now, even without silver being mentioned..

the biggest pollutant is dishwashing liquied with phosphates in it..they are the cause of the red tide, that kills millions of fish in the lakes and seas...hormones are the same, you are post possibily eating meat from cattle given hormones to make them grow...so, you all have to be pretty learned to know!

[freedombiteback]

Pharmaceutical industries Birth control goes through the system (water waste) and turns aquatic live into hermaphrodites (amphibian /alligator,crocodile and so on..)..

[divinetriplet]

The fact is that silver does not kill good bacteria!! I know you guys at "Friends of the Earth" were paid by the drug companies to misrepresent and discredit nano silver. Good and bad bacteria metabolize energy in different ways and silver only disrupts the energy metabolism of pathogenic (bad) bacteria! The drug companies are so afriad of nano silver getting into the mainstream because they will lose billions on antibiotic and vaccine sales. Saying that it can harm the immune system is backward

[Kenzofeis]

Hehe, if small silver clusters in water is "nano-technology" - then seawater is too, for it contains practically every element you can think of. Yes, Plutonium too.

[watercleanAG]

silver is great and works..but only minute amount is needed

[watercleanAG]

@watercleanAG

Looking at this video, it is so broad and bordering on scaremongering, it is a shame you sending the wrong message on silver, as silver is no different to many other chemical or metal in the environment, but actually have better uses in the modern lifestyle with the limitation of anti-biotics compared to the other metals in use in the environment..

I bet that 98% of the listeners would not have a clue to the meaning of nano technology what it really is!..

[LorentJovet]

"A little bit too liberal " ??! Whatever... The blue guy didn't get blue because he drank too much of it, he got blue because he used salt (sodium chloride majorly) to catalyze the reaction and when you put ionic silver (Ag+) with chloride (Cl-) you get silver chloride (AgCl) . A compound which excessive consumption leads to the skin discolouration disease known as Argyria.

[vagabound1010]

well thats the exact reason y recent advances in medical sciences have ruled tat particles in coloidal suspention( any where from 0.2 NM to 2 microns) are unfit for consumption and medical use as they overly inhibit positive cell growth, and so nano silver( 0.1NM-1Micron),that catalyzes into ions purely comprised of silver utilising specialized process technology is now being utilised as medical substitutes as they suspend themselves in a much more stable 'nano suspension'

[upcycle]

@vagabound1010 interesting. And i wonder if there is a way to test for this size. and better yet for consumer to test before using. And perhaps if the size of the nano particles may be an area that can be regulated and may be to the benefit of consumers.

[watercleanAG]

@upcycle

oh yeah, there are special machines t o check the size of the particles..but not for consumers..you first have to understand there are two types of silver, ionic, and the particles..ions are smaller than a nm, like an atom..and particles are large clusters.

very important to know the difference of these two rather than just simply saying silver...ionic is positively charged, (have better anti-bacterial effect) and particles are not..

[watercleanAG]

@watercleanAG

ionic have great anti-bacterial effect, but only in a solution, and used where there are not chlorides. silver ions react with stomach acid(HCL) and becomes inert and

discharged, while silver particles do not reach with chlorides, and remains in the body, e.g., blood streams and so on..thats why silver colloids sellers talk about

particles and not ions..for them ions are uselss..but particles they claim work and kills pathogens in the body.

[watercleanAG]

@watercleanAG

so ingesting silver ions will be a waste of time, but it works great for treating water and external wounds, but particles remain and can accumulate in the body..so you have to know what you really want to use the silver solution for, and ask what the solution contains, and % of particles and ions, Remember, 1ppm is over the top to kills pathogens..so dont drink solutions of 20-30ppm...

e.coli can be killed 100% at 0.5ppm...simple bacteria not more than 0.05ppm

not 30ppm.

[watercleanAG]

@watercleanAG

as the video says, ancients used silver goblets and silver utensils to get rid of

bacteria and plague causing contaminats.. but these goblets and silver utensils only discharge very minute amount of silver and did the job of protecting the people of old time..unlike the current coollidal silver with huge 20-30-50ppm of silver.. remember, minutes, 0.01-0.08ppm is more than enough to kill the modern pathogens that even anti-biotics cant kill..even MRSA.. so use it well!!

[cypherus]

Would passing the waste water over a magnet extract the silver that would otherwise be washed into the treatment plant?

[bobo53charternet]

silver's not very magnetic....

[DiggingMyOwnGrave2]

great quote!

[Clario40000]

"wow thats concerning looking" I lold

[ioslong]

Tell me about it. I know someone who CURED his cancer pesonally by doing many healthy things, including drinking Colloidal Silver. he did NOT turn Blue but DID out live the doctors predictions of 2 years.

Just another scare tactic!

[jellofast]

did the cancer person use DCA tablets or colloidal silver?

also which one is better colloidal or covalent silver?

[BlitzWing00]

Very interesting stuff.
