Colloidal silver is pure elemental silver that is evenly distributed into water. The silver is not dissolved but suspended evenly throughout the solution as a result of the positive electrical charge that is attached to each particle of silver as it is electrically sintered off of the silver electrode into the water. The process is made using a Colloid Master generator, distilled water, and 99.99% pure silver.
On average the process for making one quart of Colloidal Silver is between 3 and 5 hours. The finished product will be clear to pale yellow to pale yellowish brown in color. It is odorless, nearly tasteless and a potent non-toxic disinfectant and healing agent. It should be stored away from direct sunlight and if done so, has a shelf life of around one year. Colloidal Silver is considered a Homeopathic Remedy and is also referred to as Silver Mineral Water.
I began using Colloidal Silver on my horse, Haley, after he received 2 months of traditional medication for EPM (Equine Protozoa Myelitis) treatment. When test results finally showed that he had cleared the protozoa that had wreaked havoc on his central nervous system, I wanted to use a product that could keep his immune system healthy and ward off any further protozoa attacks. I knew that he would not be able to handle further damage to his spinal cord. I began by giving him 2 cups of Colloidal Silver mixed in with his meals twice daily. It has no taste, so there were no palatability issues. And it makes a nice substance for his supplements to adhere to in the meals.
When Haley developed abscesses all around his coronary band on the right hind hoof, I put the Colloidal Silver in a spray bottle and cleaned the hoof with it daily. It kept the wounds clean and allowed the abscesses to heal.
For horses with acute issues you can give up to 2 cups of Colloidal Silver twice a day mixed into the horse’s meals. For more chronic conditions, you can mix in up to 1 cup twice a day.
It makes a wonderful topical healing agent for cuts, scrapes, abrasions, abscesses or any other type of wound. It can even be spray on warts, growths and greasy heels. Simply pour the solution into a spray bottle and use as needed.

This was another wonderful, informative post. I have a bottle of colloidal silver I got to use on hoof fungus. Dang stuff was sort of pricey at our local natural foods store.
