Colloidal Silver Regulated Dosages

By Raymond Petros

The use of colloidal silver is intended for many different purposes. It is most commonly used to treat various diseases. However every kind of disease requires a special regulated dose of the substance.

Not knowing how much to take may cause you to consume undue amounts of the substance which may lead to undesirable side effects.

Whereas in general colloidal silver is free from side effects negative consequences may occur due to excessive consumption.

In medical lingo one ounce of colloidal silver is recognized as a single therapeutic dose. The number of doses you would take during a day totally depends on the medical condition for which you are seeking treatment.

General oral consumption of colloidal silver

Colloidal silver dosage can be taken anywhere between one to sixteen doses. However it may be divided over four times for patients that require numerous doses.

This produces a continued and cumulative effect in the body throughout the period of use.

Irrespective of the medical condition it is always best to break down the doses into smaller doses. In case the patient requires multiple doses he can ingest the substance after every fifteen minutes or so.

When it comes to oral ingestion of the substance it is recommended that it be held in the mouth for half a minute before gulping down.

Once the particular symptoms due to which colloidal silver is being consumed subside, users should discontinue taking the substance.

However in chronic situations colloidal silver may be administered for up to four months time.

Colloidal silver for incurable diseases

In recent years colloidal silver has been prescribed to individuals suffering from chronic diseases. However, small doses fail to bring about the desired results in these cases.

The dosage in these cases may go up to a liter a day and that too may be extended for quite some time.

Statistics show that beneficial results of colloidal silver in such cases only start to appear when 16 ounces of the substance has been consumed on a daily basis for at least a month.

This is specially the case with conditions related with chronic viral infections. The quality of the colloidal silver being used in this case is also a major cause of concern.

Non-oral consumption

Generally it is believed that oral consumption of colloidal silver is the least effective. There are many alternative means of injecting colloidal silver into your body.

The alternative means of taking the substance are generally available in smaller doses.

The reason why non-oral methods of ingestion are deemed more effective is because they avoid the digestive tract.

This is done in order to enhance the bio availability of the substance which may otherwise be reduced by the digestive tract.

This provides you body with alot of less diluted colloidal silver to benefit from.

On the other side colloidal silver is used for external applications as well. This is done for the purpose of treating skin problems.

By applying colloidal silver to the affected areas the bacteria in the area can be driven away. Colloidal silver creams are safe to use and can be applied liberally on the affected region. - 14130
