More and more people
are becoming familiar with liquid colloidal silver – the world’s most powerful
natural infection-fighting agent.
But not so many people
know that there are some excellent topical colloidal silver gel and cream products
on the market, too.
And fewer still know
that you can make your own healing, antimicrobial colloidal silver gels and
creams. Here’s the straight scoop you
won’t hear anywhere else…
Hi, Steve Barwick here, for www.TheSilverEdge.com...
I’m a huge believer
in topical colloidal silver products such as colloidal silver gels and
colloidal silver creams -- particularly for skin conditions like cuts, scrapes,
minor burns, sunburn, bug bites, itches, rashes, acne, boils, blisters, minor skin
ulcers, and more.
And in some cases,
these colloidal silver gels and creams work great for more serious situations
like topical MRSA infections, as well!
Unfortunately, most
people don’t know about topical colloidal silver products, even though they’ve
been used in hospital burn wards worldwide for decades, in the form of
Silvadene Cream, containing silver sulfadiazine.
This prescription-only
silver cream is used to help prevent serious burns from becoming infected,
since most burn victims don’t die of the burns, but from the subsequent
bacterial infections in the dead, burnt and necrotizing skin and tissue.
Silvadene Cream is
also occasionally prescribed in small tubes for serious sunburns – which is
exactly the way I found out about it over 25 years ago while fishing in
Colorado and coming home with a blistered face.
The local clinic
doctor took one look at me and prescribed the Silvadene Cream, which I’d never
heard of at the time. But in only a few applications the pain was gone, the
blisters were healing, and within days my skin looked like new!
No Surprise!
That was my
original introduction to the astonishing healing power of silver. So it’s no surprise to discover that people
are getting wonderful results with topical over-the-counter colloidal silver
gel and cream products, as well.
Just as with orally
ingestible liquid colloidal silver products, I don’t believe in using excessive
amounts of topical colloidal silver products over long periods of time.
And I don’t see
much of a need for long-term daily usage of such products, but instead,
occasional short-term use from time-to-time when the situation calls for
it.
With that in mind,
here’s a brief overview of some of the topical colloidal silver products I’ve
used, to good effect.
ASAP Colloidal Silver Gel
ASAP Ultimate Skin
& Body Care Gel, which contains 24 ppm colloidal silver is one of my
long-time favorites topical products, and is absolutely wonderful for skin
conditions.
My 83 year old mom
used this product when she had a topical MRSA outbreak, and found it to be very
effective at both relieving the itch and pain, and also controlling and
diminishing the infected outbreak until it completely healed.
(This was combined
with oral consumption of micro-particle colloidal silver, as well as a cleanliness program
consisting of two showers a day using antimicrobial soap, and frequent changes
of clothing and bed sheets to avoid re-contamination of the infected site.)
Mom continues to
call me and order more of the gel, from time-to-time, whenever she feels itches
or rashes she’s concerned might develop into MRSA again. But after a few day’s worth of usage, she’s
always relieved to find the situation goes away completely.
So its
effectiveness is unquestioned in her mind (and mine). And although her doctor told her that once
these topical MRSA outbreaks get started in order people like her, “you just
have to learn to live with them because they’ll keep coming back,” she hasn’t
had another MRSA outbreak since the first one (well over a year now).
ASAP Ultimate Skin
& Body Care Gel is available at SwansonVitamins.com, and at a variety of
other vendors such as Amazon.com. [Late
addition: It appears American Biotech Labs may have recently changed the name of this product to ASAP 365 Silver Gel.]
Sovereign Silver Gel
Many people also swear by a topical gel product called
Sovereign Silver First Aid Gel. This
product contains both homeopathic levels of silver (10x, 20x, 30x), as well as agentum metallicum, meaning metallic
silver (the amount of argentum metallicum is unspecified).
Sovereign Silver Gel has a huge following among those
knowledgeable of topical colloidal silver products, and is frequently
recommended by the famous health freedom radio talk show host Robert Scott
Bell.
This very popular product is also available on both
SwansonVitamins.com and Amazon.com. I’ve
used it to very good effect for healing topical issues such as cuts, burns and
raw, rough skin.
Silver Miracles Gel
I’ve been experimenting with another topical gel product
lately called Colloidal Silver Gel from Silver Miracles, which contains 75 ppm
colloidal silver.
While I haven’t had the opportunity to use this product on
anything serious, I’ve found it to be a very soothing gel for minor skin issues
such as cuts, scrapes, burns and a minor dog bite.
I’ve been applying it to my elbows, where I’ve had patches
of rough, raised skin for years, and they’re both smooth as a baby’s butt, now. I’ve even used it on my mustache in place of
mustache wax – it works great!
This product can also be found, relatively inexpensively, at
Amazon.com.
Curad Silver Solution
Gel
Believe it or not, the famous bandage-making company, Curad,
has a topical gel product called Curad Silver Solution First Aid Antimicrobial
Gel.
Curad bills this product right on the label as “Your barrier
to MRSA!” -- a claim which would probably land any other colloidal silver
vendor in hot water with the FDA, and have their product pulled off the
market.
I’m not sure how Curad gets away with making that label
claim, considering the FDA’s strict regulations against making “drug” claims on
nutritional or cosmetic products. But so
be it. It is now generally accepted
wisdom that silver is an
extremely effective cure for MRSA.
The Curad product contains 55 ppm silver chloride, plus an
unspecified amount of silver nitrate.
I’ve read repeatedly that people with topical skin conditions like Tinea Verticolor have found this product
to be extremely helpful.
Silver Pure Cream
There's a much stronger topical colloidal silver product called
Silver Pure Cream. It's not a gel, but
instead, a thick, smooth, all-natural oil-based cream.
This product contains an astonishingly high concentration of
metallic nanosilver (i.e., you can choose between 10,000 ppm and 35,000 ppm concentrations)
which may be overkill for many minor situations.
But used topically I’ve seen it work wonders on such diverse
things as serious Shingles outbreaks (i.e., immediate relief from the
unbearable itching, pain and inflammation), as well as for preventing
infections around the site of surgical sutures in an immune-compromised individual.
I’ve even used it to heal the painful, infected and inflamed skin around my toe, caused by an ingrown toenail. This flares up and gets infected from time to time, and when it does, just the weight of the bed sheets when I’m sleeping can be enough to cause extremely pain and discomfort.

But each time that happens I apply the SilverPure cream
several times a day, directly onto the toenail and the surrounding skin, and
within a couple of days the pain, inflammation and budding infection is gone.
The manufacturer tells me he has customers using it
successfully for eczema and psoriasis.
I personally don’t recommend using this product around the
eyes, ears or inside the nose due to its very high concentration of silver
nanoparticles, which, in my opinion, can be migratory due to their ultra small
size. (The manufacturer disagrees with
me on this.)
This very unique, powerful and extremely concentrated product
is available at www.SilverPure.com. I keep a small jar of it on hand at all
times, in my emergency preparation kit, as well as on my bathroom
countertop.
Making Your Own
Some people prefer making their own colloidal silver oils
and gels. I’ve done so and have found
them to be very effective.
A handful of people I’ve spoken with swear by Argan oil,
mixed with a little bit of colloidal silver.
Some people suggest a mix of three ounces of Argan oil to
one ounce of 10 ppm (or higher) colloidal silver.
Others have told me they use three drops of a 500 ppm commercial
colloidal silver product mixed into a tablespoon full of Argan oil before
applying to a topical skin condition.
Finally, some do-it-yourselfers like to mix one teaspoon full
of 10 ppm (or higher) colloidal silver with three heaping tablespoons full of
raw, virgin coconut oil, for a great, homemade topical colloidal silver cream.
Coconut oil is not only antibacterial and antiviral, but
antifungal as well. So combined with
colloidal silver it offers an antimicrobial “knock out” punch second to none.
Similarly, many people swear by a mixture of pure Aloe Vera
Gel and colloidal silver. This is one of
my favorite topical skin treatments, because Aloe has so many topical healing
properties of its own.
You can read my article on making your own colloidal silver
gel and colloidal silver soap at this link.
Or, you can watch my short video on how to make your own
colloidal silver gel and colloidal silver soap at this

Liquid Colloidal
Silver
Of course, you can use plain old liquid colloidal silver
topically, and to good effect. Many
people use it to cure athlete’s foot and other topical fungal infections (see my
previous article, here),
for example.
Others have successfully used it to cure nasty cases of Toenail Fungus (see my previous article, here).

And of course it works wonders on cuts, burns and bug bites.

easily, in the comfort and privacy of your own home, and for less than 36 cents a quart – by clicking

I’ll be back next week with another great article on
colloidal silver…
Yours for the safe, sane and responsible
use of colloidal silver,
