Good product, good quality, minimal taste

My son is in the middle of a science fair project with his best friend. The two decided to do their science project on: "Is silver as effective in killing germs as traditional methods?" Now I've ordered quite a few different brands of silver products over the past 4 years since learning about their purported strong anti microbial properties. This particular brand is the bottle I just happen to have open at the time of this science project. Now believe me when I say that I was nervous to do this project because my family has come to rely on silver products for our health. We use it for topical, internal and optical use -meaning we spray it on the surface of our skin, take it internally and spray it in our eyes. For those reasons, I was nervous to find out, through this test, that silver wasn't effective. Not only that, I didn't want to find out that this particular silver product was fake and didn't contain any silver at all but the former was a larger concern. So I first baselined the silver to make sure it contained some form of silver by adding chloride (simple table salt) into an ounce of this brand of silver. If silver ions are present, the solution will turn cloudy because of the chemical reaction between silver and chloride. It turned cloudy as the table salt dissolved. I also wanted to make sure that there were no added proteins in this solution by simply shaking the bottled solution vigorously. Protein is used to suspend the silver particles in cheaper silver products. WARNING: Added proteins can be dangerous because they can actually contain bacteria. Normally bacteria wouldn't survive in silver. However, with added proteins, silver can be surrounded by a bubble within this protein, thusly never being able to come in contact with bacteria. There has been laboratory tests where a tested solution(s) was excluded from testing due to bacteria being found within the silver solution under a microscope. At any rate, if a layer of foam persists on the surface, then proteins would be present: AFTER vigorously shaking, no foam whatsoever in this solution - on to the experiment. So my son's experiment consisted of this: rubbing the bottom of one of his shoes with one hand, swab that hand with a sterile swab and then rub the swab into a Petri dish containing an agar solution. Afterwards he would wash his hands, rub the bottom of his shoe again and then clean his hands with the one of the following methods: regular soap and water; anti bacterial soap and water; alcohol based hand sanitizer; this brand of silver product. After each hand washing method, he and his science fair partner would swab the same hand with a sterile swab and then rub that into the Petri dish. For the test using the silver, he and his partner used it exactly like hand sanitizer - just sprayed it onto the dirty hand liberally and just rubbed the hands together. After the hands air dried, we immediately swabbed the hand being tested. The results speak for themselves. The first 2 pictures, from left to right are the unwashed hands; my son's hand and then his partner's hand. The next 2 pictures are the results of the silver applied to the dirty hand and rubbing it into both hands together. His science fair partner had no visible spore growths. My son's had just 2 extremely small and almost imperceptible white pin head dots of spore growth. It was difficult to see through the condensation that had developed in each petri dish. All the other tests had no perceivable spore growths except: my son's anti bacterial hand soap test. His anti bacterial had 4 small spore growths. The Petri dishes were incubated in a bucket with a halogen bulb lamp turned on for heat for a period of 47 hours at an average temperature of 89.5°. The low was 84° and the high was 95°. So from this simple experiment, I can positively say that this particular silver solution KILLS bacteria and whatever else would be on the bottom of a shoe. With the proliferation of superbugs becoming resistant to traditional anti-biotics, this may be something you'd want to keep within your arsenal of health maintenance. My .02 cents.

Awesome for toothaches.

This was my second bottle of Colloidal Silver. I purchased it because my immune system needed help. I have Lupus, and if I get the flu/cold, it can further damage my body. Previous Lupus attacks has caused me to have COPD and Heart Failure. Another attack could be the death of me so I am doing all I can to boost my immune system. I just learned from the seller of other uses of Colloidal Silver. The information was very helpful. And, I'm actually feeling younger. I first learned of silver nitrate and it's healing powers when I got gangrene from a sore caused by a constant rub and irritation from a cast on my wrist. I knew it was Gan-grene when the surgeon took the cast off. That smell is one you never forget. The surgeon told his nurse to get a bandage. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. He gave me orders to go to a physical therapist to rehab my wrist. I went immediately. When they saw and smelled my wrist, the staff came over and could not believe what they saw. One lady picked the dead tissue from my wrist using a tweezer, and it took her a long time. She would have to stop and gag, almost vomit. When the skin was clear, she poured liquid silver on the wound. She later placed a small piece of material on the wound and covered it with a bandage. The material had silver nitrate in it. I used it at home, and made a few trips back to the PT. Gangrene gone. They gave me another, unknown to me, a piece of material to put on my wrist to fade the scar. I left a portion of the scar on my wrist to remind me of how close I came to losing my wrist/hand. No, I did not sue the surgeon. Being a retired Army surgeon, he should've known better than to dismiss me.

I bought this product because of the reviews & because it is reasonably priced and I wanted to add colloidal silver to my arsenal. I "had" a strange knot or bump on my left shoulder that came up about 2 years ago (I believe because of stress and it was about the size of a blueberry) and it would NOT go away! So I thought to try and start rubbing this product on the knot to see if it would go away, and in a matter of a few minutes it started going down!!!! So as of now, it has almost completely disappeared! I have also used it on pimples and they go away without me having to pop them! I only gave 4 stars because I am wondering about the "H20" in the name of the product Silver H20, but as far as my experience with this product it has made a staunch believer out of me when it comes to Colloidal Silver!

Great product

works well for my needs

I have a senior french bulldog who is allergic to the world and has constant paw issues. I have tried literally everything; daily prescription meds, monthly allergy shots, every medicated shampoo, spray, wipe you can name and sometimes it helps but most of the time it irritates her worse. She's also on special food, only purified water, in a cone when I can't keep an eye on her so she doesn't chew her paws off, etc etc. If you have a dog who is allergic to everything then you know the drill. This round with her paws has been a nightmare but within 2 days of using this spray (a few times a day, 1 spritz on each paw) I'm already seeing a dramatic difference.
