Colloidal silver for topical use

Due to the antiseptic properties colloidal silver has been successfully used topically for centuries now: burns, open wounds, rashes, thrush or superficial bruises can be easily treated. Since the product has absolutely no kind of side effects, there are no unpleasant reactions to administration, it is totally painless and the soothing reaction is almost immediate. An ancient practice in traditional medicine is the use of colloidal silver drops in babies' eyes to treat various infections; the remedy is still used since antibiotics administration is almost impossible in the case of infants or very small children.

How can colloidal silver get one rid of a skin infection or fungus? Let's take the concrete example of yeast outgrowth or candiditis spread on the skin surface; Candida Albicans is a very aggressive bacterium that multiplies and invades the body system uncontrollably. The application of colloidal silver to the affected skin area will lead to the destruction of the body and the stimulation of the local natural defenses. Silver cells inhibit the oxygen metabolism of viruses, bacteria and fungi making their “breathing” impossible; we could say it cuts the oxygen source off.

Colloidal silver or soaps that contain the compound as such are ideal for any fungi or skin rashes caused by a virus. Furthermore, people who suffer from acne have a great ally in colloidal silver cosmetic products. Though acne is caused by a hormonal imbalance in the system, the skin glands are often affected or clogged by the excessive secretion of oil; this creates a very proper environment for bacteria to develop. This is the explanation of the skin infections associated with acne. The use of colloidal silver soap for instance will eliminate the bacteria from the deepest skin layers, speeding up the healing process and the tissue regeneration.

Great success has been reported in the use of colloidal silver products for anti-cellulites effects. Though many weight loss treatments include colloidal silver administered orally in precise quantities, there are colloidal silver ointments and body lotions that fight very well against the adipose tissue. Gently massaged in the skin, it stimulates the metabolic reactions at the cellular level and increases the fat burning process. The result should be a much firmer-looking skin and improved tissue elasticity. Cellulites is very often associated with toxin accumulation in the deep skin layers, and colloidal silver purges them through the sweat glands, restoring the natural and healthy skin condition.
