Note this comment on the article:

"This writer REALLY needs to do his or her homework. a little research would bring up the FACT that UCLA university conducted medical studies in 1995 on colloidial silver. colloidial silver was introduced to 256 pathogens and viruses, and killed all of them in 5 minutes or less. that was at 8-15 parts per million. the studies were never published on the front pages of newspapers, but if you are a doctor, you are allowed to look it up in the medical journals. if you do further research, you will find very very few people have ever turned "blue", and those that did ate pieces of silver coins and silver compounds. basically they took anywhere from 80 to 800 times the recommended dose. lets be practical for a moment, what would happen if we drink 80-800 cups of coffee at a sitting? could we accurately and with a straight face determine coffee is dangerous? it could be, but for almost everyone, its not dangerous. same applies to nano silver. I am very concerned by people thinking its ok to drink it every day though. same rule could apply to nano silver as antibiotics, over prescribing will lead to superbugs. according to the JAMA, 3 times as many people die every year, at the mistakes of pharma medicine as all highway traffic fatalities nationwide in the USA, every year. thats public medical knowledge. you can look it up. so before we get all emotional about nano silver, and begin our witch trials, perhaps we should be dumping millions of dollars into research before our time runs out in the race against superbugs and the effectiveness of antibiotics against them. mankind has used silver for thousands of years for numerous different uses. and for those using nano silver DAILY, please do further research yourselves as well, having you drink it everyday like orange juice ruins credibility for the rest of us who desire the truth about nano silver and its "magic" qualities.
