There are volumes written about silver on the internet… for a guy in the bush, silver kills over 800 kinds of bacteria, simple. It interferes with their ability to form cell walls.
Uses... Silver bandages are available for purchase, used to be cheap. Hospitals often use them on burn patients, prevents infection.
Old folks used to put silver dimes in each jar they water bath canned. Prevented botulism…
I put silver dimes in my water jug in the fridge, water always tastes fresh, kills the bacteria. I’ve put silver quarters in milk jugs, milk stays fresh longer.
I file off silver powder from a “Silver Eagle”. I keep it in my medical kit. Used to get scraped up/cut working cattle. Sometimes in filthy conditions. I'd sprinkle silver powder onto the cut. I’ve never gotten an infection, even the time I was sitting in cow poop and afterbirth pulling a calf when I got a bad cut, nasty.
You can use quality colliodal silver in all of the above situations… Got a bad cut? I’d soak the bandage with the c. silver then apply it to the cut. I did the same thing many times. (These days I’d reach for a plant first… but my vial of silver powder is always handy.
But if you want to know how it really works... On the National Library of Medicine website there 288,000+ published medical research studies that are viewable by the public. All of them concerning some aspect of the metal Silver (Ag).
