Unfortunately, not all of the colloidal silver products now on the market are manufactured correctly. In fact, some of these are not ‘true’ electrocratic colloids at all, regardless of the claims made on the product label.
Many methods for manufacturing colloids were used before the 1930’s. These fall into five main groups:-
1. Grind
2. Wave
3. Liquid
4. Chemical
5. Electrical
Today, the F.D.A. only recognises two to be suitable ways to manufacture. These are the grind process and the electro-colloidal process. Although a cheaper, chemical process is being used by some manufactures today.
The main drawback to the grind method is that because the size of the particles are so large, gravity pulls on them causing the particles to settle to the bottom of the solution. To offset this problem, manufacturers add a ‘stabiliser’ and by doing this the particles tend to settle much more slowly. If the colloidal silver is let stand too long, it will need to be shaken to redisperse the particles. These large silver particles or clusters are unable to be absorbed properly and therefore the effectiveness of the colloidal silver is lost.
Usually this form of colloidal silver ranges in colour from slightly greyish colour to a blackish colour. The colour depends on the concentration of the silver and on the stabiliser that is used.
In recent years the chemical process has been widely employed to replace the grind method but it too falls short of the superior quality of ‘true’ Electrocratic Silver Colloid. The chemicals used in this type of method are powerful acids that help break down the silver. Medical researchers believe this may lead to harmful side-effects. This method can also affect the pH of the colloidal solution, making it more acidic. Like the grind process, chemically produced colloidal silver also requires stabilisers.
