Silver Lining colloidal silver is 99.999% pure elemental silver that is evenly distributed into steam distilled water that is extremely pure at a rate of 10 to 20 parts per million. The distilled water begins at less than 1 part per million total dissolved solids to avoid contaminant reactions with the silver during processing, i.e. production of silver chloride (culprit associated with Argyria). The silver is not "dissolved" but "suspended" evenly throughout the solution as a result of the positive electrical charge that is attached to each particle of silver as it is electrically released from the silver electrode due to high voltage alternating current (AC) into the water.

The charged silver particles form into aggregates of atoms (micro-clusters) of silver that interact with each other and create a synergistic effect. Each electrically charged particle of the micro-cluster has a magnetic field. Together the particles create a phenomena called the "Brownian movement", a sort of random oscillating motion. The micro-clusters are in motion repelling each other, the individual particles of the clusters have a positive charge and therefore repel each other, that is how they stay suspended and evenly distributed in the water. When making electro-colloidal silver, the water appears to go through a molecular restructuring. Because the water is used as a conductor it creates an electromagnetic field. The electromagnetic field is part of the electro-colloidal process. Silver Lining colloidal silver has an effective particle size of .004uM to .015uM (micro-meters)making it 100% safe(will not cause Argyria) and 100% bio-availabe. The term Bio-available refers to the ability of a silver colloid molecule to pass through cell walls inside the body. The silver particles in Silver Lining are small enough to be 100% available to the body for use.

Silver has been used for many years as a natural antimicrobial. How to prepare silver for human use safely was not understood until more recently but the following facts demonstrate the early research devoted to fighting bacteria...

To prevent disease, ancient Greeks lined their eating and drinking vessels with silver, as did many cultures throughout the world. . (Encyclopedia Britannica, 1910)

Silverware became popular 1,900 years ago when Physicians advised their patients to only eat with silver if they wanted to stay healthy. During the 14th century, about 25% of the people in Europe died from the bubonic plague. Wealthy parents gave their children silver spoons to suck on to battle the plague. This lead to the expression, "Born with a silver spoon in your mouth".

In 1884, Dr. Crede. a German obstetrician, discovered that a mild silver solution put in a babies eyes at birth, would prevent eye infections. This practice rapidly became mandated and is still practiced today in hospitals throughout the world. In 1915 Dr. Leggeroe also worked with adult eyes. He said it was "the most useful opthalmic remedy he had ever seen for eye infections."

Pioneers of the American West would put a silver dollar in a jug of milk to keep it fresh without refrigeration. (Health Consciousness Magazine, Vol. 15, No. 4)
