I think that that article was very helpful - however, I can say that I have used, with success, colloidal silver. My understanding of it is 2 fold - 1 is that certain brands of colliodal silver are better than others and that something in the process of making it makes it better (i'm vague here, but I don't want to quote incorrectly) and secondly, I don't believe that you are supposed to use it on a daily basis - and being told to do so would be unhealthy. Any alternative meds have to be looked at with a caustic eye and probably discussed with a physician - but I can say that I have had success with several alternative meds, colloidal silver included.
