Colloidal Silver Heals Wounds Faster
The use of silver has been part of our medical arsenal for generations, used to help eradicate bacteria, heal infections, and prevent sickness. But long before silver was taken internally, it was used topically as a balm for burns and skin infections. Today, colloidal silver continues to be used in a variety of capacities, including as a topical solution for external wounds.
Colloidal silver took silver itself and elevated it to another level by suspending it in water and introducing it to a positive electrical charge. Miniscule silver particles in this state were able to effectively access the cells of the body, passing straight to where they were needed; eradicating bacteria and providing healthy cells with nutrients to support ongoing wellbeing. In many cases, colloidal silver is ingested internally in order to treat illness and support the body’s immune system with powerful protection against over 650 microorganisms.
But colloidal silver is just as effective externally as it is as an internal agent. Just as silver was applied topically to the surface of the skin generations ago in order to stave off bacteria and treat infection, colloidal silver today is used today in much the same capacity. In its liquid form colloidal silver can be administered in droplets onto external wounds. The introduction of colloidal silver helps protect the wound from bacteria and subsequently speeds healing.
Its effectiveness on this front can be validated by today’s modern bandages. If you look on the shelves of your local pharmacy – where every conceivable brand, size, and configuration of bandage exists – you will undoubtedly find bandages that include silver in their formula; either as a liquid component that is formulated into the pad that cushions the wound, or as a silver mesh overlay inside the bandage.
Such inclusion in modern day wound care is not surprising as silver continues to be used in this capacity worldwide. What we have always known from silver’s illustrious past is that it inhibits the growth of bacteria and fights infection; and that sort of added protection is just as timely today as it was centuries ago.
