RE: Colloidal Silver Is Antibacterial & a Safe Treatment for E. Coli
Please, remove the science tag from this post. Colloidal silver is not only snake oil, it is actually physically dangerous for consumption.
There is no legitimate data to back up your claims. Additionally even if there were, precise dosing would be imperative to limit the potential for toxicity, as leeching of silver ions from colloidal particulates is common (it is from this that the toxicity is derived). Nobody in their right mind, would trust you to do sufficiently rigorous testing so as to determine the 1. appropriate dose or 2. accurately quantify the concentration of what you are selling in the first place.
This is indeed the information that can be found on many places that are scientifically serious.
One would be wise to consider whether the "scientifically serious" entity has fabricated and manipulated data before one chooses to trust them or not. Pharmaceutical industry- and government-funded studies, for example, have alarmingly high rates of falsifying data.
Incorrect.
You are still incorrect, @justtryme90. Thousands of testimonials, our own experience, and almighty Science as well back up the effectiveness of colloidal silver. Do your own research, and talk to some people who use it! An honest practice of science requires the adaptation of human beliefs when evidence counters them, and you will see that no one ever has been harmed by high quality colloidal silver, yet thousands if not millions of people have experienced improved health and wellness.
In recorded human history, there is only one side effect associated with consuming high quantities of poor quality colloidal silver, and less than 200 cases of it in 150 years. This side effect is argyria, in which the person turns blue-gray and is caused by the collection of silver salts under the skin. Compare that to a) thousands if not millions of success stories, and b) the effects of pharmaceuticals.
If the existence of this effective product for treating a huge range of disease offends you, you don't have to use it. We're not forcing it on you or anyone else, but it is important that people know they have genuine options for health and wellness.
I am not wrong. YOU are spreading UNVALIDATED claims, with the potential to harm people who listen to you. Your anecdotal evidence is worth absolutely nothing. You would do best to keep your trash posting out of the tag dedicated to actual scientific pursuits.
A tag of science should not be used anywhere in your list of 5. Scientists see posts like this in the science section of steemit, and instead of signing up, they move on because who wants to post at a place full of nutters and pseudoscience.
Keep the health tag if you want, the healthcare professionals can deal with you and your falsehoods there.
By rights you should include more descriptive tags, #scam #pseudoscience #toxic #poison
Not really sure why you're so emotionally invested in our post as to revert to libel, but you could check us out and find that you are once again incorrect.
It's likely much more off-putting for new users to see "I'm right and you're wrong!!" arguments and childish name calling than to have new ideas, facts, and experiences presented in the science section of Steemit.
Scientists seeing this post may very well have their entire worldview expanded rather than close their minds down completely...that's how we have advances in science. Maybe new or old users will be inspired to do further research and trust what they find for themselves. It's presumptuous to assume that everyone has the same beliefs and would react the same way. High quality colloidal silver works and has never killed or harmed anyone...that can't be said about pharmaceuticals or the medical monopoly.
Maybe someone didn't know that there are viable alternatives to pharmaceuticals, but there are plenty. Wouldn't it be amazing to live a life of thriving, invincible health, relying not on some external "authority", but on your body's innate capability for healing? It's totally possible - we live it, we embody it, and we share the successful tools and methods we find towards enhancing that.
Again, you don't have to use it, but you clearly haven't actually done any real research towards it.
I adjusted my language to treat you more fairly.
You should still re-think your representing potentially toxic substances as a health product. Justifying your claims with ... oh but wait, back in the 1930's people used this all the time. Yeah? Well people also drank mercury as a laxative back in the day, that doesn't make that safe. Nor does it make your claims true.
There just AREN'T peer reviewed publications backing up the safety of effacacy of what you claim in the scientific literature. The fact that you get your product "from scientists" doesn't make things any better. Perhaps those scientists should publish some work clearly illustrating the safety and efficacy of the colloidal silver (in humans for the best justification), why haven't they done that?
They have done that, you just have to find it, look at it, and read it without prejudging it as quackery: Dr. Calin Pop MD: The TRUTH about Colloidal Silver & Gold, for just one example. There's tons of info available!
Do you know that the mainstream media, including the medical media, is controlled by a handful of corporations and is completely biased? Do you know that if pharmaceutical companies do not want information about more effective alternatives to their products to get out and become public knowledge that they have extreme power and wealth at their disposal to make sure it doesn't happen? They tell us whatever they want to tell us to sell products; the health and safety of the consumer is of little to no consideration. Suppression of effective treatments and cures is very, very real, which includes censorship of papers and articles that demonstrate success.
The scary thing about indoctrination is that we're taught not to see these invisible forces at work, and definitely not to question it if the veil does lift! We are in a unique position in that we have witnessed first-hand literally hundreds and thousands of people who have enjoyed improved health and wellness based on the info and tools we share (supplements, plants, lifestyle choices, etc). We live for Truth and honor, and it is our duty to share what we have found.
"Quality" of colloidal silver is dependent on a few factors, including nanoparticle size, concentration, and the presence/absence of other substances.
Further, we do not produce colloidal silver. What we offer by donation towards our cause of feeding, clothing, housing, and educating people is sourced through a lab staffed by legit and certified scientists, researchers, doctors, and educators. We trust that they have the appropriate equipment to deem it 100 ppm, and that they have determined the appropriate dosages (for the quality that we offer, 1 drop is generally sufficient to ward off any sign of sickness, although an individual may self-medicate with 3 or 5 or even 10 or 20 drops depending on the severity of their condition with no ill effects, save the need to supplement with probiotics for higher doses).
