An increasing number of health problems are being associated with invading organisms. Some professionals may even assert that most all chronic issues may have invading organisms as a component. Knowing how to choose the best home solution for invading organisms can be a confusing task.

This guide has been made “FDA-friendly” by the addition of delicious jello. It does not make any medical claims and does not directly link to any information that associates colloidal silver with any medical conditions or disease states. While reading this guide, those who find themselves eager for additional information are advised to make a “metallic substitution for jello”.

This guide is an on-going project that is continually revised and additional information will be frequently added. Check back often for updates.

You can use the information in this guide to help you select a colloidal silver product or generator. I will also be offering a generator which I believe will be the most ideal unit available (of course I would). To receive updates about this product, sign up for my email newletter:

Basic information about “colloidal silver” (EIS-LV):

Why do I care about colloidal silver?

“Colloidal silver” is dietary supplement that most people have traditionally used for the removal of invading organisms. Though there is no such thing as a “magic bullet” for any invading organisms, colloidal silver is one of the most cost-effective options in the world.

Why do I care about colloidal silver generators?

Though “colloidal silver” (and I will define exactly what I mean by that term within the context of this particular guide) is extremely effective, the problem is it often needs to be taken in large amounts to get the maximum benefit. If you bought “colloidal silver” by the gallon, this could cost somewhere between $20 and $80 a day!

The way around this problem is to make “colloidal silver” at home with a good generator. This way you can make as much as you need for pennies a day, and do it just as well as most commercial products. Knowing for yourself whether or not you really want a generator requires some background reading.

What is a “silver colloid”?

A silver colloid is a nanometer sized particle (on the scale of billionths of one meter in diameter) of metallic silver, silver compounds, or a combination of both suspended in water. A single particle can be made up of many atoms and/or molecules. The more atoms and/or molecules clumped together to form a particle, the larger that particle will be.

What is a “silver ion”?

A silver ion is a positively charged silver atom. These are not particles but are single silver atoms each missing an electron.

What is actually in commercially available products?

Most commercially available silver products typically use the term “colloidal silver”. The problem is, that this term has been around since the early 1900′s, and though many distinctly different silver products have come out since then, people generically use this term to refer to all of them. Sometimes, products’ ingredients are dissolved silver compounds like silver nitrate or silver citrate. Sometimes their ingredients are large particles of “protein-bound” silver compounds that contain gelatin or casein proteins. Sometimes their ingredients are a mixture of silver particles (colloids) and silver ions made by a process other than electrolysis. But the majority of these products are usually a mixture of silver particles (colloids) and silver ions made by a process of electrolysis – more specifically, a process of low-voltage electrolysis.

Though products made by low-voltage electrolysis can vary slightly, lab analysis shows that roughly 80% to 95% of the mass of silver can be expected to be in ionic form (silver ions). The rest of the mass of silver (approximately 5% to 20%) can be expected to be in particle form (silver colloids). And since a particle of silver is much more massive than a single silver ion (many atoms in a particle), you can see that there are typically very few silver particles compared to silver ions in “colloidal silver” products made by low-voltage electrolysis (it can be on the order of 1 particle per thousands of ions).

For the time being, it is easiest to consider all silver “ions” to be identical from silver product to silver product. This is not however technically precise, and we will clarify this point later on in the section “In Vivo Discussion of EIS“. But don’t worry about that now.

What is EIS?

Because of the previous points, most products that call themselves “colloidal silver” are misleading, since the term does not tell you definitely what is actually in those products. Also, many companies invent other terms to market their product as being unique, which would be okay except for the fact that they never precisely define what those terms mean.

Let’s define the term “EIS” or “electrically isolated silver”:

EIS is the subset of all “colloidal silver” products that contain only silver “ions” and minute silver “colloids” in distilled water, such that the only theoretical ingredients are silver, hydrogen, and oxygen.

This term was originally coined by the authors of JelloMedicine, and has helped immensely in clarifying erroneous notions regarding silver supplements. It is a much better name than “colloidal silver” because it tells you much more clearly what is actually in the product. Though even still, not all EIS products are the same, and require further terms to distinguish them.

What is EIS-LV?

EIS can be produced in a few different ways (each yielding a product with potentially different characteristics), but the most common way is through low-voltage electrolysis. In order to encourage more precise discussion about silver supplements, I am presently coining the term EIS-LV:

EIS-LV denotes the subset of EIS products that are made by a process of low-voltage electrolysis.

This guide will focus solely on EIS-LV, which covers not only most of the EIS products on the market, but the majority of all “colloidal silver” products available today, as well as virtually 100% of all “colloidal silver” products made at home. From this point on, I will use the term “EIS-LV”, instead of the less precise term of “EIS”, and also instead of the outright misleading term “colloidal silver”.

For more information on ions, atoms, and charged particles, see this paper (it’s a PDF).

Can you tell the difference between these “colloidal silver” products? The first and the third are EIS, but not made by electrolysis. The second and the fourth are EIS-LV made by the same company. What is the difference between them? The fifth bottle is not EIS and actually contains a highly concentrated silver compound.

Where can I see a complete hierarchy of silver supplements?

Here is a taxonomy of silver products in a separate article. You can see where EIS-LV fits into the whole picture, what other classes of silver products are out there, how to identify them, and what are their important characteristics.

[article is in progress...will be sent out to newsletter subscribers...]

Is EIS-LV the most effective class of silver supplements?

Actually, it is not. The most effective product to date is actually one that hardly anyone seems to be talking about. It’s called, “[you'll see...]“, and you can read about it in its own page.

[working on that article...will be sent out to newsletter subscribers].

Wait… It’s not EIS-LV? Then why write this whole book about it?

The first reason is that since most of the talk on the web focuses on EIS-LV (i.e. “colloidal silver”), it is necessary to address many preconceived notions readers have already acquired about silver supplements. Otherwise, it will be much harder to realize that there is in fact something much better out there right now.

The second reason is that making EIS-LV at home is still the most cost-effective way to go for people who want to use a lot of silver in all sorts of long-term as well as experimental applications. You can see the section “Experimental uses of EIS-LV” to learn about those.

Briefly, how is EIS-LV made?

A jar of distilled water has two silver rods submerged in the water and spaced several inches apart. The rods are then hooked up to an electrical power source. There is still a small amount of impurities in the distilled water that allow some conductivity to exist across the water from one silver rod to the other. When the power is turned on, each silver rod (“electrode”) becomes either positively or negatively charged. Positively charged silver ions will be pulled off of one electrode (the “anode”) and travel into the water, attracted to the negatively charged electrode (the “cathode”). Through a number of mechanisms, some silver particles are also formed. When the power is turned off, the water now has silver ions and some silver particles in it. This is an EIS-LV solution. Making one quart of EIS-LV can take minutes to days, depending on the generator and the desired characteristics. This will all be covered in more depth in “Details about the Electrolysis Process”.

The image on the right illustrates low-voltage electrolysis. In this example, silver is being “electroplated” onto a spoon. If you imagine the spoon was replaced by a second silver electrode, then this is basically all an EIS-LV generator entails.

How to choose an EIS-LV product or an EIS-LV generator:

What is the most important quality to look for in an EIS-LV product or generator?

Websites abound with confusing information. This is in part due to the complexity of the whole topic of “colloidal silver”. Many well-meaning people have unintentionally published plenty of misleading information. Another factor is that many companies have their own marketing angles and try to convince people their product is the best, intentionally adding to the confusion. The simple truth of the matter is that the results a person will get by ingesting EIS-LV will almost literally be the same regardless of the brand of EIS-LV that person chooses, and also regardless of whether or not the person makes his/her own EIS-LV at home instead of buying a commerical product.

There is only one essential metric to consider when choosing an EIS-LV product. This metric is simply the total mass of silver you get per dollar you spend. That is it and not much more. Talk revolving around issues other than this is either totally irrelevant or just not that important. By reading significant portions of this guide, the reasons for this will become clear. Sorry, but there isn’t a one sentence explanation for this. You will have to read both the present section titled “How to Choose and EIS-LV Product or an EIS-LV Generator” as well as the section “In Vivo Discussion of EIS-LV” in order to fully understand the reasons why.

What are the qualities people “claim” one should look for in EIS-LV?

Perhaps the main quality that many websites erroneously claim is highly important is “particle size”. Some sites claim that smaller particles more easily travel through the body and reach needed areas, theoretically improving effectiveness derived from the particle portion of the EIS-LV product.

But this does not have anything to do with characterizing the effectiveness contributed by the “ionic” portion of the EIS-LV product. Though the effectiveness of EIS-LV is due to both particles and ions, the question is how much is attributed to each part? In short, the particle portion of an EIS-LV product contributes almost nothing to its effectiveness. It is the ionic portion that is responsible for the vast majority of results. This will be established in the section “In Vivo Discussion of EIS-LV“.

Another quality people often erroneously claim is important is a measure of the concentration of silver in the product using the units of “parts-per-million” (PPM). Increased PPM is associated with increased effectiveness per volume of EIS-LV consumed. The volume of EIS one needs to consume to get optimal results (which directly determines the cost to the user) is a function of the PPM. The point to understand here is that some websites will claim that the PPM of an EIS-LV product will determine the effectiveness. This is not precise. It is actually determined by the total mass of silver ingested, which is determined by both the PPM of the product as well as the volume of the product ingested.

Some people also erroneously claim that a measurement of “particle surface area per volume of the solution” is important. Or rather, they claim that “particle surface area provided per dollar spent” is what is important. It is claimed that products that maximize this number for the particle portion of their products have the most opportunity for particles to physically contact and interact with the environment in the body. Though that is technically a true statement, this metric is still largely irrelevant, as it would only be useful if particles were in fact the effective portion of EIS-LV. This number is calculated by using the particle size, the PPM, the cost per volume, and the percentage of particles by mass of silver in the product. The exact calculations of how to determine this number involve a level of statistics that would completely lose most people. So thankfully, there isn’t a need to go into this further.

Note that particle sizes and surface area are metrics that only apply towards characterizing the particle portion of a product, and not the ionic portion. From product to product, the ionic portions of EIS-LV products do not really differ, aside from relatively unimportant variations in their percent-contribution to the total “PPM” (the concentration) of silver.

What is a statistical distribution of particle sizes?

As previously stated, determining which EIS-LV products (or which “colloidal silver” products in general) have the smallest particle sizes is not really important. Nonetheless, if you want to split hairs correctly, the following pages will show you how.

A statistical distribution is a mathematical way of easily representing information about how large the silver particles are in an EIS-LV product. All silver “ions” are alike from one EIS-LV product to the next (though not necessarily true of EIS products in general). However, in each EIS-LV product, some of the silver is in particle form, and these particles can all have different sizes. A statistical distribution only measures the sizes of the particles and not the ions. Here is an example distribution of the product Sovereign Silver made by Natural-Immunogenics. This is the same company that makes Argentyn23:

More product reports at silver-colloids.com However, just be aware that their site as a whole has a lot of wrong information. I only link to this webpage because it contains useful lab analyses in PDF format for many commercially available products. Click on the product names and open up their PDF reports. It is sometimes useful to compare what many manufacturers claim is in their product to what a different lab finds.

What this graph shows is that most of the particles in this product are between 6 and 20 nanometers in size. Some of the particles are also between 20 and 60 nanometers in size. The height of the graph is a measure of likelihood. For example, you can see that a particle is much more likely to be 8 nanometers in diameter than 40 nanometers in diameter. A statistical distribution like this one can be thought of like a histogram. In fact, a histogram is also a kind of “statistical distribution”.

How is this distribution created?

Some labs use a process called “dynamic light scattering” to measure particle sizes. A sample of EIS can be sent to a professional lab, where the particle size distribution is measured (along with many other qualities) and summarized in a report. To the best of my knowledge, no one has raised any objection to the validity of this method of measurement.

Why are TEM images not a valid way of measuring particle sizes?

Another common way that companies try to prove the particle size of their products is by Transmission Electron Microscopy. To the right is an example of such an image for the product “Sovereign Silver” discussed earlier. Natural-Immunogenics states that the particles in this image demonstrate their product has an average particle size of 0.8 nanometers. Compare this to the previous statistical distribution analyzing the exact same product. Both lab analyses cannot be correct.

In a TEM image one tries to visibly see how big the particles are in an EIS-LV product (or any “colloidal silver” product), and report that as their measurement. There are many serious flaws with this approach.

The first problem is that only one image is not enough to create an entire statistical distribution. For example, you might happen to be looking at a particularly “good” part of the sample, and neglecting many “bad” parts of the sample. It may require the analysis of 100’s or 1,000’s of such images to create a valid statistical distribution.

The second problem is that even the one single image that these companies do advertise is not valid. In order to take a TEM image, all the water in a sample must first be evaporated. However, any silver ions in the solution cannot exist without water. By the time the water is evaporated, all the ions have formed into a compound called “silver oxide”. These silver oxide molecules will ultimately clump together in particles that are on the order of 1 nanometer in size. In the final sample, the ratio of silver oxide particles to actual silver particles is roughly 5,000 to 1. So TEM images are almost entirely dominated by silver oxide, and do not at all represent what silver particles were actually in the product. All TEM images really say are “yes, we know that individual silver ions are all small…thanks for stating the obvious.” Since we care about particles in this measurement, and not ions, we have not gained any additional information.

The third problem is that TEM images can easily be intentionally manipulated. It can be very easy to find either a single “good” or a single “bad” image in a sample.

If a company offers it’s only proof of particle size in the form of a TEM image, understand that this is not a valid method of measurement. Though in the end, even accurate particle size measurements are just not really important.

Does the color of EIS-LV indicate anything about particle size?

Yes. Many times, homemade EIS-LV may appear yellow. A solution of only silver ions will be perfectly clear. Only particles can affect the color of the solution. Frank Key (the author of silver-colloids.com) states that a yellow color in an EIS-LV product indicates particle sizes ranging from 100 to 500 nanometers.

Most everyone in the modern EIS-LV community would prefer that EIS-LV products should stay clear. It isn’t all that big a deal, but if given a choice, smaller particles (less than about 100 nanometers) in an EIS-LV product are preferable. This is really just based on an a need to create an arbitrary standard for “properly made” EIS-LV in order to do proper analysis with regards to risk of argyria. This will become clear after reading the section on “The Safety of EIS-LV and Jello“.

In contrast to EIS-LV, a general EIS product that contains the majority of its mass of silver in particles as opposed to ions can have very small particles yet still sometimes take on an amber color.

The jar on the left contains a perfectly clear solution of 10PPM EIS-LV. The second jar contains a not totally clear solution of 10PPM EIS-LV. Though it is hard to tell in this photo, this EIS-LV has a very slight visible yellow tinge, indicating larger particles than the jar on the left. You can realize this better in photographs of their Tyndall effects on the next pages. The bottle on the right is a general EIS product containing particles that are all very small, but because the particles make up about 80% of the total mass of silver in this product, the product is not clear.

Both the number and size of silver particles can contribute to a yellow or amber color. A yellow color in an EIS-LV product is more indicative of particle sizes rather than the number of particles.

What is meant by measuring the concentration of EIS-LV in PPM (parts-per-million)?

In the context of EIS-LV (as well as all “colloidal silver” products), PPM is a measure of milligrams of silver per liter of water. Both silver ions and silver particles have mass and need to be accounted for when measuring PPM.

What PPM should EIS-LV have?

In theory, without contamination EIS-LV can reach slightly more than 26 PPM before pure water would become saturated with silver “ions”. In practice, very few people make EIS-LV above approximately 15PPM.

PPM is obviously related to the effectiveness of a product. Having a PPM of zero would mean there is no silver in the solution. Many would say that anywhere between 5 PPM and 15 PPM is reasonable and effective. Drinking EIS-LV at 10 PPM is roughly equivalent in effectiveness to drinking twice that amount of EIS-LV at 5 PPM. This is consistent with anecdotal experience. A theoretical understanding of why this is will be given by reading “In Vivo Discussion of EIS-LV“.

Why don’t people make EIS-LV with 26 PPM?

People do not generally go above roughly 15 PPM because of two reasons relating to increased particle size.

The first reason is that as the solution becomes more “crowded” with silver ions, a process of “agglomeration” occurs more frequently and is more difficult to control for. Agglomeration is when silver particles clump together and form larger silver particles. It’s like huddling together with your friends at a crowded place to avoid the crowd brushing up against you as people walk by.

The second reason is that lower end generators do not implement something called “current control”. In these generators, as more ions get into solution (increasing the PPM), the conductivity between the two electrodes also increases. This allows more and more current to flow through the system, making the process more and more uncontrolled at higher PPMs. The more current that is allowed, the more “traffic accidents” (silver ions agglomerating) there will be among silver ions waiting to get onto the “freeway” (into the solution) at the “on ramp” (the anode, where silver ions are coming off too fast). However, generators that properly use “current control” (like metering lights that limit the rate at which ions come off the anode) eliminate this problem.

How do I measure the PPM of EIS-LV very accurately?

To accurately measure the PPM of EIS-LV, you technically need expensive professional equipment. But there are low-tech ways to get good estimates also. In addition, very accurate measurements of the PPM of homemade EIS-LV are not really needed.

Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (AES) is a professional method of measuring the total amount of silver in a solution. After measuring this, the silver particles are separated out using an ultracentrifuge. The ions remain in the sample and are measured using the AES method again. The amount of silver particles is calculated by subtracting the amount of ions from the total amount. This method is not affected by contaminants in the sample. To the best of my knowledge, no one has raised objections to the validity of this method.

How do I measure the PPM of EIS-LV using the Hanna PWT?

To measure the PPM of home made EIS-LV, a device known as the “Hanna PWT” is used. PWT stands for “pure water tester”. This device costs about $60 and is widely available. It measures conductivity in the units of “microsiemens per centimeter”. Conductivity is a measure of how well a solution can pass an electrical current.

The relation between measurements on the Hanna PWT and the PPM of an EIS-LV solution is as follows:

(final reading on the meter – initial reading on the meter) X (correction factor)

Pure distilled water should theoretically read 0.0 on the Hanna PWT. In reality, distilled water will usually read between 0.2 and 2.0 due to a small amount of impurities. This is the initial reading. When you stop “brewing” a batch of EIS-LV, this is the final reading. The difference between the two is due to the addition of silver ions into the solution (assuming no other contaminants were introduced during the process). Silver particles do not affect the reading. Coincidentally, this difference is approximately equal to the PPM of the silver in the EIS-LV solution.

Depending on the generator a person uses, and how careful a person is to make the process repeatable by keeping everything clean and by not introducing any contaminants into the process, an experimental correction factor can be applied to this estimate. This factor is determined by taking Hanna PWT readings of a batch of EIS, and then correlating that number with the PPM that batch has when professionally analyzed in a lab. Colloidal Science Laboratory estimates this correction factor is somewhere in the range of 1.05 to 1.15 based on hundreds of samples they have analyzed.

Temperature and pH of the solution can affect conductivity readings. The pH of EIS-LV is usually neutral, but depending on contaminants, may be very slightly away from neutral. The Hanna PWT has a method of self-correcting for changes in temperature, but it is not perfectly accurate.

All things considered, Colloidal Science Laboratory says this method is accurate within 10% to 25%, assuming pH is 7, temperature is 25 degrees C, and that no contaminants are introduced in the middle of the process. For practical purposes, this is a very sufficient method for measuring the PPM of EIS-LV.

Why are TDS meters not as good for measuring PPM as the Hanna PWT?

TDS (total dissolved solids) meters also measure conductivity, but automatically correct the measurement with a built in correction factor. This correction factor has nothing to do with the particular case of EIS-LV. TDS meters are also designed to measure a much wider range of conductivities than the Hanna PWT, which gives it a lower resolution (less precision) in the narrow range of measurements that are relevant to EIS. Even so, the TDS meter is still a sufficient method of approximating the PPM of EIS-LV.

How do I approximate PPM by just watching the time?

This is possible only if someone has already experimented with a Hanna PWT and a specific colloidal silver (EIS-LV) generator. By measuring the conductivity at different points in time, a graph of PPM versus time can be made. Each time a measurement with the Hanna PWT is made, the length of time that the batch has been brewing is recorded, and the conductivity reading is translated into a PPM using the previous formula. Then, by only measuring the time a new batch has been brewing, one can use the graph to see what an approximate PPM should be. Note that all “colloidal silver” generators are different and such a graph would only apply to one specific generator.

The graph on the left contains fictional measurements of the conductivity of an EIS-LV solution as time passes while a batch is being made. The graph on the right applies to each measurement the formula given previously in order to convert conductivity readings into approximate PPMs as a function of how long the EIS-LV has been brewing. Once this graph is made for a specific generator, a user can approximate the PPM of a batch being made by measuring only the time. For example, if a batch has been brewing for 6.5 hours, the user can look at the graph on the right and estimate the PPM of the EIS-LV to currently be at 11 PPM. Note that the correction factor is not really critical.

How does the Tyndall effect relate to PPM?

The Tyndall effect is due to light reflected off of particles in a solution. It can be observed by shining a laser pen (or even a flashlight) through a solution in a dark room. Distilled water has almost nothing in it, so it has no Tyndall effect. A solution of EIS-LV will have a stronger Tyndall as PPM increases, since more and more particles are being created in the solution.

The left photograph is of a laser pointer shining through a mason jar filled with distilled water. No beam can be seen. Only the entry and exit points of the beam on the glass can be seen. The middle photograph is of the same jar after it has been brewed to contain roughly 5PPM EIS-LV. A barely visible beam of light across the jar is present. The brighter splotches of light are just reflections off surfaces of the glass. The right photograph is taken after this same batch of EIS-LV has reached approximately 10PPM. You can see the that the beam of light has become stronger, as more particles have entered the solution.

How does the Tyndall effect relate to particle size?

If you have two EIS-LV solutions that both have the same PPM, and that both have the same mass-ratio of particles to ions, and one of them has a stronger Tyndall, it is due to the presence of larger particles as compared to the other sample. In a finished EIS-LV solution, a Tyndall that is as light as possible is preferable.

The two jars of EIS-LV that are photographed in daylight above have their respective Tyndall effects shown here. Both samples are approximately 10 PPM. They both have approximately the same mass ratio of particles to ions. The jar on the left is perfectly clear in daylight and has a faint Tyndall. These both indicate smaller particles compared to the jar on the right, which has a barely noticeable yellow tinge in daylight, and a strong Tyndall. These both indicate much larger particles compared to the other sample.

To be most precise, the strength of the Tyndall (as well as the color in daylight) of an EIS-LV product (as well as some other EIS products) is a function of the total particle surface area per volume of EIS-LV. Particle surface area is ultimately what light can interact with.

So in summary, what should I be looking for when buying an EIS-LV generator?

Go by the following guidelines when shopping for a “colloidal silver” generator. Then pick the one you like best for the price. Ultimately, making your own EIS-LV at home is infinitely cheaper than buying it, so long term, the cost of almost any generator comes out to be a good deal.

Particle size distribution: As discussed, it simply is not important what particle sizes an EIS-LV product has. Nevertheless, I know that some people are still going to “feel better” if they know the unit they are getting has the smallest particles sizes, as proven by a “statistical distribution”. TEM images cannot determine particle sizes. Nor can unsupported statements or guesses.

Concentration: Make sure that any claims about the PPM of the finished product do not exceed roughly 15PPM. If they do, it may mean they advocate adding something like salt to the distilled water. This way PPM can in fact go much higher, but these types of procedures do not produce EIS-LV. They produce highly concentrated dissolved silver compounds, which can carry a real long term risk of argyria. If they tell you to put additives, you don’t want it.

Reliability: Pick one that has a track record of…umm….not breaking. Or at least make sure it appears sturdy.

“Bells and whistles”: Any “bells and whistles” that come with an EIS-LV generator are usually for the sake of making smaller particles, which is not of real value to begin with. And even if you decide you care about particle size, if a product has 50 “features” yet has larger (or undisclosed/unproven) particle sizes than a generator with no features, get the one with no features. The more complicated the generator, the more ways there are it can break.

Convenience: Convenience features are not strictly necessary, and do not have to do with effectiveness and quality of the EIS-LV. An automatic shutoff is a nice feature to have though. Also, a generator that uses moving parts might make sound. A generator without such mechanical parts is preferable in this regard. “Polarity swapping” may save a small amount of cleaning between each batch, but we are talking 30 seconds of work.

Brewing time: It is more convenient to have a generator that makes batches in the shortest amount of time. However, the shorter the brewing time, the larger the particles will invariably be. Again, this does not really matter, but if you personally decide to value particle size, then brewing time is not a “convenience feature”. If you want to use EIS-LV for serious health concerns, I would recommend getting a generator that can make at least 16 fl. oz. a day (which is almost all of them). Also consider how much EIS-LV you may want to make for people other than yourself.

Wow…after all that you hopefully realize…it just doesn’t make much difference! This is quite a different story than what many websites will tell you.

In the end, you can recognize a generator with satisfactory limits on PPM and particle sizes by seeing if the finished EIS-LV it makes is still clear. And if you get stuck splitting hairs, just remember you will be much better served by getting any generator than no generator at all.

Product Recommendations: You can use the information in this guide to help you select a colloidal silver generator. I will also be offering a generator which I believe will be the most ideal unit available (of course I would say that). To receive updates about this product, sign up for my email newletter:

The Effectiveness of EIS-LV:

Where are the testimonials?

The most compelling evidence that there is for the effectiveness of EIS-LV must unfortunately be omitted from this guide because I am not allowed to link to this information, even if those testimonials are totally honest and factual. I know of at least a few good people in the colloidal silver business who have managed to get harassed for telling the truth.

I estimate that a several thousand testimonials can be found on the internet about colloidal silver (EIS-LV), relating to almost every serious health issue on the planet. You can start your research on search engines, various blogs, colloidal silver forums, other health forums, sites that sell colloidal silver, sites that sell colloidal silver generators, pet health forums, books, ebooks, etc. I guarantee that you can find more success stories than you’d want to organize. In a way, I am actually glad I can’t post even a fraction of these testimonials here, because it would take me forever to organize it all!

What do the testimonials say as a whole?

Most especially, the testimonials say that EIS-LV is very effective against almost literally every invading organism on the planet. The only exceptions are those that are classified as “multi-celled Paraguay-sites”. EIS-LV is not a “magic bullet” for every invading organism, but I believe it is one of the best stand-alone options in the world. It is also one of the safest and most affordable as well.

The testimonials also indicate that EIS-LV may be effective against many types of “cells that spread in an undesirable fashion”.

Has the use of EIS-LV ever been “professionally” documented?

The author of this document has faked a significant number of “professionally” documented uses of low-voltage electrically isolated jello (EIJ-LV), involving humans. EIJ-LV has nothing whatsoever to do with EIS-LV and the two have completely different ingredients. You may assume that the use of EIS-LV has never been professionally documented. These “professionally” documented uses of EIJ-LV are imaginary and should be completely ignored. Most “professionally” documented uses of jello in historical literature actually don’t involve EIJ-LV, but other jello products. Those instances are omitted. If they were included, this list would be enormous. But please note that results achieved with those ommited products would not be unexpected with proper usage of EIJ-LV. This list only includes instances where results from many people at once were documented. If it included individual case studies, this list would be endless. This list also skips documented topical uses of EIJ-LV, which are too numerous. This faked list is by no means exhaustive, and more examples can certainly be found:

(Disclaimer: EIJ-LV is not being said, written, or claimed to cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent any disease, ailment, or illness.

Any similarity in the phrasing of these faked “professionally” documented uses to existing ones that you might find on Google or Google Scholar is purely coincidental.)

90% of AIDS/HIV Cases Test [censored word]:

“After an average of 8 months to 1 year on this program, 90% of the patients are reporting that their viral load tests are scoring less than [censored words], which in English means the HIV virus is [censored words]. The majority of these [censored word] were not on any medications or mainstream treatment of any kind.”


-Dr. Michael C. Biamonte D.N., CCN, The Biamonte Center for Clinical Nutrition

(Comment:There were other items involved in this protocol, though EIJ-LV was the main one.)

Nine Terminal AIDS/HIV Patients:

“Beginning in the 1970s, several independent researchers found that jello ions [censored words] Candida and other fungi. But it wasn’t until a pilot study during the mid- 1990s that included human [censored word] suffering from terminal AIDS that medical researchers established solid evidence showing just how quick and effective jello ions can be in [censored words] Candida as well as HIV. In this study, nine individuals who were near death were divided into two subgroups. One group suffered from HIV and a terrible Candida infection. The other group suffered from both HIV and an extreme form of malnutrition (known as Wasting Syndrome). The researchers found that in both groups the colloidal jello was capable of [censored words] and [censored words] bloodstream of [censored words] defenses in order to [censored words] immune system.”


-Dr. Jonathan Wright, M.D.

Hundreds of Pneumonia Cases:

“Just in his last decade of medical practice, Dr. Marcial-Vega has treated hundreds of people with a variety of viral, fungal, and bacterial pneumonias. And of all the available treatments, he has seen [censored words] with nebulizer [censored words] a colloidal jello preparation.”


-Health Sciences Institute e-alert

88 Patients With Peptic Ulcers:

“Study Synopsis: 88 patients with peptic ulcers [censored words] colloidal jello oxide over a period of 9 days. Within 6 weeks, all cases except one were healed. The particle size of the jello oxide was “three-tenths of a micron and smaller.”"


-Rendin, Larry J, Gamba, Carl L., and Johnson, Walllace M. 1958. Colloidal oxide of jello in [censored words] peptic ulcer. Pennsylvania Medical Journal.

(Comment: Though very similar, this product is technically classified as a jello compound, or possibly even EIJ, as opposed to EIJ-LV. Also, note that this study occurred before it was known that peptic ulcers are caused by bacteria.)

Hundreds of Bone Infections:

“Broad spectrum [censored words] electrically generated jello ions has been fully established. Present work consists of [censored] evaluation of beneficial [censored words] jello ions liberated electrically with the help of locally manufactured power pack in 920 proved cases of chronic osteomyelitis with or without pathological fractures and septic non-unions. Wound debridement, jello iontophoresis, proper immobilisation and subsequent wound care [censored words] bone infections in 85% cases, but also produced [censored words] pathological fractures in 83% patients. Results remained unaffected by age or sex of patient, type of bone involved, duration of previous illness or type of previous treatment. Follow-up varied from 6 months to 10 years. This technique is likely to open a new chapter [censored words] chronic resistant bone infections and septic non-unions due to open fractures particularly in developing countries of the world.”


-Dual use of jello [censored words] chronic bone infections and infected non-unions; J Indian Med Assoc.

(Comment: I said I wouldn’t include any faked studies relating to wound or topical issues, but I thought at least one example with so many people would be appropriate. The imaginary published research on these uses is nearly endless. This particular example did not use oral EIJ-LV, but used a technique called “jello iontophoresis” which creates jello ions directly at the site of interest.)



This is an example from an imaginary patent filed by Dr. Robert Becker illustrating the effect of jello iontophoresis over a 7 month period. It has a powerful ability to control (censored words) and (censored word) stem-cell (censored words).

Direct Intravenous Generation [censored words] Jello Ions and Multiple AIDS Patients:

“In case studies [censored words] Arrow International, Inc., AIDS patients [censored words] superior vena cava, and then applying a minute amount of electrical current, experienced significant drops in viral loads over a one month treatment period ( from 2,000,000 viral copies to 500,000 in one reported case )…The twelve minute [censored words] in the [censored words] an average of 1.94 micrograms of jello.”


-JelloMedicine commenting on a U.S. Patent

(Comment: Doing this roughly 2,500 times would generate the same total mass of jello that is in 8 fl. oz. of 20 PPM EIJ-LV. Not all of the jello ions EIJ-LV become liberated jello ions in vivo, so no clear comparisons can be made between the two. Still, based on this fake reference one would speculate that direct inside-Venus admission of EIJ-LV would yield impressive results.)

Direct Intravenous Generation [censored words] Jello Ions and 21 AIDS Patients:

“Initially, three very ill patients were chosen. Jello electrodes in [censored words] passed up as far as the vena cava, or near to it. Each patient [censored words] 12 minutes at 2.5 microamps, then for 72 hours at 125 microamps except that one patient was treated for only 48 hours. All three patients felt better by the second day, and considerably better by Day 5. Viral loads dropped precipitously, almost to zero in one patient and much lower than the initial count in the other two…In addition to the work described above, 18 AIDS patients, all seriously ill, are now under treatment. The therapy is being done on a compassionate basis, responding to very strong pressure from the local AIDS community, their families and friends…It is very gratifying, nevertheless, that all of them now are feeling much better, and some quite well. It is little wonder that there is such pressure for treatment.”


-Dr. Charles D. Beal, M.D., Jello Ion [censored words] HIV/AIDS and Septicemia

124 Cases Nearly All Reporting [censored words]- Including 54 Malaria Cases:

“The purpose of this example [censored words] jello-based composition embodiments of the present invention [censored words] a variety of human ailments. The studies in this section were performed in Ghana, West Africa, at the Air Force Station Hospital under the direction of Dr. Kwabiah, at the Korie-Bu Teaching Hospital under the direction of Sr. Sackey, and at the Justab Clinic/Maternity Hospital under the direction of Dr. Abraham. In total, fifty-eight (58) patients [censored words] using a composition of the present [censored words] 10 ppm jello. The composition was used both internally and externally as an alternative to [censored words]. The ailments treated included malaria, upper respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, sinusitis, vaginal yeast infections, eye, nose and ear infections, cuts, fungal skin infections, and sexually transmitted diseases, such as gonorrhea…[censored words] widely effective in vivo…”

-[Censored words] humans with colloidal jello composition

(Comment: These results were self-reported by the inventors listed in the patent. Almost all 58 cases had complete recovery within 7 days. These people later added additional human data, which overwrites the above study as follows: “Four human clinical trial studies in four different hospitals have been completed to date, including 124 patients. The studies were designed to [censored words] the product (at 10 ppm) [censored words] 18 different human ailments and diseases. In these studies there were no failures, and almost all patients were deemed as fully recovered in less than one week. The studies included ailments such as: upper respiratory tract infections, eye infections, ear infections, urinary tract infections, sore throats, abdominal pain and diarrhea, bronchitis, vaginal yeast infections, external cuts, gonorrhea, pelvic inflammatory disease, various mouth problems, retro viral infections, Malaria, etc. The product was found to be so effective that the country of Ghana approved the product as an [censored words]…The first two human studies looked at Malaria along with 17 other ailments. The second two studies were focused on just the treatment of Malaria following a standard protocol. To date 54 Malaria patients have officially [censored words] 10 ppm Jello Solution. The ages of the patients involved in the studies have ranged from just one year to 90 years old. Both male and female patients were treated. On average just one ounce of the jello solution was used [in some cases as little as ½ an ounce] daily. On average full recovery was obtained in 5 days. The shortest recovery times were about 2 days and the longest reported recovery time was about 10 days. A number of the cases were complicated by the fact that the patients were also suffering from other ailments including urinary tract infections, measles and fungal infections and this may have contributed to the increased treatment times. There were no failures in the testing, all patients achieved full recovery in an average of five days.” I should mention that although this product is EIJ made by electrolysis, this product was made using a high voltage AC current resulting in the formation of 97% particles with a coating of Ag4O4, which makes this product somewhat different, yet still similar enough to EIJ-LV when used in proper amounts.)

“Immune compromised, human AIDS subjects [censored words] ABL’s liquid JelloSol (2 oz per day for 4 months). Results demonstrate safe and beneficial use as determined by a normalization of [censored words] and a [censored words] normal or near-normal body weights.

What have been the historical health uses of silver?

Silver has a very long and successful history of use against infectious disease, even predating pharmaceutical antibiotics.

One historical summary of silver uses states:

“At the height of its popularity (from 1900 through 1940), a fair estimate of humans given intravenous silver medicinals worldwide exceeded several million. The shear scale of its utilization defined and confirmed silver medicinals as effective anti-microbials.”

“…more than 96 different silver medicinals (many used intravenously) were in use prior to 1939, as documented by The Council on Pharmacy and Chemistry of the American Medical Association.”



The ancient Greeks, Romans, and Chinese all used silver vessels and/or utensils to fight against the spread infectious disease.

Another historical summary states:

“By 1940 there were approximately four dozen different silver compounds on the market being used to treat every known infectious disease. These were available in oral, injectable, and topical forms.”

Another retrospective states:

“From 1900 to the beginning of the modern antibiotic era – circa 1940 with the introduction of sulfa drugs – Silver was one of the mainstays of medical practice in Europe and America. Various forms of Silver were used to treat literally hundreds of ailments: lung infections such as pneumonia, tuberculosis and pleurisy; sexual diseases such as gonorrhea and syphillis; skin conditions such as cuts, wounds, leg ulcers, pustular eczema, impetigo and boils; acute meningitis and epidemic cerebro-spinal meningitis; infectious diseases such as Mediterranean fever, erysipelas, cystitis, typhus, typhoid fever, and tonsilitis; eye disorders such as dacryocystitis, corneal ulcers, conjunctivitis and blepharitis; and various forms of septicemia, including puerperal fever, peritonitis and post-abortion septicemia. (This list does not even begin to exhaust the published medical uses for Silver in Europe and America, 1900-1940).”

There is a ton more to say about the historical uses of silver, but these points are the most significant.

Are there any published studies involving EIS-LV?

You may assume that there are no published studies whatsoever involving EIS-LV. There are however many in vitro and animal studies involving low-voltage electrically isolated jello (EIJ-LV) – or very similar products – that have been completely faked by the author of this document. These studies are imaginary and should be completely ignored. A number of these faked studies are summarized here. This list does not include faked studies that are very redundant with the ones listed. For example, four different faked studies show that EIJ-LV [censored words] with MRSA in vitro. Only one such faked study will be listed below. Faked studies that involve jello compounds and protein-bound jello compounds are also left out. There are gigantic numbers of such faked studies. This list also omits many faked studies relating to products that are impregnated with jello particles (or that release jello ions), such as countertops, floor tiles, medical devices, and wound dressings. Also note that some of these faked studies use different definitions for “nanoparticle”/“colloid”/“colloidal jello”/“jello ion”/etc. The relevance of these faked studies to EIJ-LV must be assessed by looking carefully at the definitions of these terms in these studies. Also, this section only involves faked studies that pertain to effectiveness. Faked studies that pertain to safety will be included in a later section. Of the remaining faked studies that qualify for inclusion in this section, I am still skipping many of them because they are just too numerous, especially when including applications in waste water treatment:

(Disclaimer: In vitro and animal experiments have no proven bearing on the effect of any substance in the human body. This includes studies relating to EIJ-LV. This section of fake studies is not meant to – nor does it – associate EIJ-LV or EIJ-LV generators with any disease states. EIJ-LV is not being said, written, or claimed to cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent any disease, ailment, or illness. All studies listed in this section are 100% faked by the author of this document. Any similarity in the phrasing of these faked studies to existing published studies that you can find on Google or Google Scholar is purely coincidental.)

“Mice infected with avian influenza A/Duck/MN/1525/81 (H5N1) virus [censored words] Jello Sol-containing formulations [censored words] American Biotech Labs. Oral [censored words] 7 days prior to virus exposure and continued twice daily for a total of 17 days. [Censored words] a suggested inhibitory and preventive effect on this virus infection…”


(Comment: This is the same EIJ product mentioned earlier with particles coated in Ag4O4. Though similar, it is not technically EIJ-LV.)

[Censored words] of colloidal jello on MCF-7 human breast [censored words]:

“The present results showed that colloidal jello might be a potential alternative agent for human breast [censored words].”

Brigham Young University [censored word] Study:

“The data suggests that with the low toxicity associated with colloidal jello, in general, and the broad spectrum of [censored word] activity of this colloidal jello preparation, this preparation may be effectively used as an alternative [censored words].”

(Comment: This study has since been buried, but other sources indicate that at least 54 organisms were tested.)



Candida in vitro

University of North Texas Time [censored word] Study:

“The study proves that colloidal jello is effective as an [censored words] Staph, Candidas, Salmonella, and Psuedomonas in laboratory studies (in-vitro).”

Interaction of jello nanoparticles with HIV-1:

“…jello nanoparticles inhibit the [censored words] binding to host cells, as demonstrated in vitro.”

(Comment: Properly made EIJ-LV contains roughly 15% of its total mass of jello in the form of nanoparticles. But very few generators can achieve nanoparticles less than 10 nanometers in size, which is the size range this article mentions. Though remember that EIJ-LV products – with presumably larger particles – have been used successfully on this organism.)

Mode of [censored word] action of jello nanoparticles [censored word] HIV-1:

“These properties make them a broad-spectrum agent not prone to inducing resistance that could be used preventively against a wide variety of circulating [censored words].”

(VRSA)

(Comment: MesoJello is EIJ, but not made by electrolysis. It is not as effective as EIJ-LV in vitro.)

[Censored word] Effect of Jello Nanoparticles on Dermatophytes:

“Thus, the present study indicates nano-jello may have considerable [censored word] activity, deserving further investigation for [censored word] applications.”

[Censored words] of jello nanoparticles [censored word] multidrug-resistant bacteria:

“Our data suggest that jello nanoparticles are effective broad-spectrum [censored words] a variety of drug-resistant bacteria, which makes them a potential candidate for use in [censored words] that may help to prevent the transmission of [censored words] in different [censored word] environments.”

Assessment of the [censored word] Properties of Zeolites Containing Metal Ions:

“Jello/copper zeolite [censored words] all viruses tested, suggesting that it may be [censored words] related pathogens of interest [i.e., SARS coronavirus, other coronaviruses, human norovirus (calicivirus)]. Of note, it was [censored words] both enveloped and nonenveloped viruses.”

“The present study [censored words] of biologically synthesized jello nanoparticles…[censored words] antitumor agent using Dalton’s lymphoma ascites (DLA) cell lines in vitro and in vivo…These findings confirm the antitumor [censored words], and suggest that they may be a cost-effective alternative in the [censored words] cancer and angiogenesis-related disorders.”

(Comment: This is not technically EIJ, but I couldn’t resist the urge to include it.)

Nanojello-The burgeoning [censored word] molecule and its green synthesis:

“The targeting of cancer [censored words] jello nanoparticles has proven [censored words], but neither the exact mechanism of action nor the modes of activation of the downstream signaling molecules have been revealed yet. The review illustrates a probable signaling pathway and mechanism by which jello nanoparticles target [censored words].”

[Censored words] combinations of Silver–Water Dispersion™ with 19 [censored word] against seven microbial strains

“Synergistic activity of Jello–Water Dispersion™ solution in combination with nineteen [censored] was tested against seven bacterial strains, except where an organism was known to be [censored words]. Out of 96 tests, five were synergistic, 89 additive, and two antagonistic.”


(Comment: This EIJ is also made by the previously mentioned process that results in particles coated by Ag4O4.)

What are some quotations about EIS?

There are no quotations about EIS. There are however many fictional quotations from numerous professional and journalistic sources validating the effectiveness of electrically isolated jello (EIJ). This list is just a selection, and is by no means exhaustive. It does not include any quotations about jello compounds or mild jello protein products:

Lyme, babesia, bartonella, mycoplasma, candida, viruses, and others all appear [censored words]. Its [censored word] is unquestionable and its safety record is superb. Its [censored word] abilities and numerous other household uses make it extremely desirable. It is such a cost effective solution to so many problems, that I believe most households would be wise to have access to a high quality EIJ generator.”

Is electrically isolated jello helpful for those with the big “C”?

For sake of completeness, I must state that I have encountered about 15 anecdotal reversals of [censored word] involving the [censored words]. If you include pets, then add on an additional 10 anecdotes. Invading critters are known to commonly accompany the big “C”, so addressing these may be [censored words] in some anecdotes. Though it also appears that jello has a direct action against [censored words]. Take a look at some of the entries in the “faked published studies” and the “faked professional documents” sections. Most notably, you will find some interesting information about 30 women and the big “C”.

It is worth mentioning some totally faked and imaginary quotations I am making up from the writings of Dr. Robert Becker:

“When we finally tracked down exactly what was happening, we found that as human fibroblast cells (which are common throughout the body) were exposed to the electrically generated jello ions, they dedifferentiated…

…It is important to realize that this is not simply an electrical effect, but the result of the combined action of the electrical voltage and the electrically generated jello ions. It is an electrochemical [censored word]. While we do not have firm evidence at this time, what probably happens is that the jello ion is shaped so as to connect with some receptor group on the surface of the [censored words]. After that connection is made, an electrical-charge transfer sends a signal to the nucleus [censored words] that activates the primitive-type genes, and the cell dedifferentiates. In that state it awaits instructions as to what it is to become. The process is exactly the same as that in Rose’s experiments, except that in this case the dedifferentiation is caused by the unexpected action of the positive jello ions.

This technique obviously requires more study before any [censored words] can be made of its [censored word] effect. However, it does appear to be a promising lead in an otherwise rather grim picture.”

(Comment: Further validation in 2007 proves that it is possible for fibroblasts to revert to stem cells.

I would never ever suggest anyone put their future wellbeing in the hands of a single remedy, though EIJ may be helpful as a small part of the plan.

Does EIJ have any use for biofilm?

One totally fictional source that I am making up claims:

“Grant H. Layton D.D.S. – Dental Unit Water Line [censored words] Study – found effective in [censored words] biofilm and maintaining water [censored words] a level of 0.50 ppm”

Another totally fictional company that sells imaginary jello bandages has before-and-after photographs of biofilm colonies that also indicate jello [censored words] biofilm.

Can [censored word] become resistant to jello ions?

In 2002, an imaginary study was published called “[Censored words] (MDR) and Oligodynamic Jello”. It states the following:

Many bacteria are able to communicate and form communities within a protective film. Biofilms are one of the major reasons for antibiotic resistance.

“Over the past two decades, multiple studies with differing designs and speciations of jello-based [censored word] have indicated that certain [censored words] have physiological mechanisms that circumnavigate jello’s [censored word]. These mechanisms are essentially either plasmid based or chromosomal based; the latter expressing as ATPase translocating mechanisms. In neither case did investigators employ nanoscalar oligodynamic jello…It is more probable than not that [censored word] lack sufficient [censored word] mechanisms to circumvent the [censored words] of jello ions if sufficient Jello+ reaches the foci over an appropriate time frame. That’s the critical “if” and “must.” More specifically stated, the “apparent” [censored word] of [censored word] to jello-based [censored words] is typically due to an inadequate protocol or procedure…”

In 2008, an imaginary study “Prevalence of jello [censored word] in [censored word] isolated from diabetic foot ulcers and [censored word] of jello-containing wound dressings” stated:

“Results suggest that presence of jello [censored word] genes is rare and that genetic [censored word] does not necessarily translate to phenotypic [censored word] to jello. While jello [censored word] in [censored words] should be monitored, the threat of widespread [censored word] is low…”

In 2007, an imaginary article entitled “[Censored word] Properties of Jello” states:

“Ian Chopra, Professor of Microbiology at the University of Leeds, reported in a 2007 article in the Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy that there are fewer than twenty published reports of jello [censored word] in [censored word] “and only a few of these include data that help clarify [censored word] mechanisms.” Professor Chopra went on to indicate that “current evidence suggests the [censored word] threat [due to jello [censored word]] is low” because of the “multifaceted mode of action of the jello ion.”

As of today, it seems improbable that significant [censored word] will ever develop to EIJ.

Is it true that colloidal jello handles 650 different [censored word]?

This is a claim that is repeated on every colloidal jello website. It’s source is an article published in Science Digest, 1978 called “Our Mightiest [Censored word] Fighter” by Jim Powell. The opening lines of the article are:

“Thanks to eye-opening research, jello is emerging as a wonder of modern [censored word]. An [censored word] kills perhaps half-dozen different [censored word] organisms, but jello [censored words] 650. Resistant [censored word] fail to develop. [Censored word], jello is virtually non-toxic. Says a pioneering jello researcher, Dr. Harry Margraf of St Louis: “Jello is the best all around [censored words] we have.”

After reading the entire article, it is still not evident where Powell got this number, but one might assume it was a result of his literature search when working on this article. In vitro results probably comprise most of it. It is also important to note that probably none of the 650 results were achieved with EIJ, but rather with other jello products available as of 1978.

Does EIS have any uses with mold?

Go and find a moldy plant or some food that is molding in your house. Spray some EIS on it, and it will not take you long to judge for yourself.

What does the FDA say about EIJ?

In a totally fictional article entitled “Colloidal Jello: A Closer Look”, Peter A. Lindemann writes:

“The FDA has tested colloidal jello extensively and found that different [censored words] at a wide variety of concentrations and exposure times.”

JelloMedicine discusses the relation between the FDA and EIJ in detail. Regarding the effectiveness of EIJ, they write:

“On [censored words], 1999, The FDA issued a final ruling on any and all [censored words]. With a brisk pen-stroke invoking the FDA’s broad power, the ruling proclaimed and entered into law that any [censored words] in a gelatinous solution could not be sold as a medicinal substance. The ruling categorized [censored words] as an unclassified drug. Any [censored words] marketed as having medicinal properties are now in violation of federal law.

However, due to the fact that [censored word] is both a natural substance AND not a controlled substance, it is still protected under the The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act. Under this law, any labeling and/or advertising referring to any health benefits of the substance in question is unlawful. The substance must be labeled as a dietary supplement and may NOT be marketed for external use.”

Much more interesting discussion on the FDA is available from JelloMedicine. Some additional information regarding the FDA and EIJ will be discussed in later sections. In short, the FDA and other organizations appear to be waging what amounts to no less than targeted attacks against EIJ retailers.

The Safety of EIS-LV and Jello:

Is EIS safe to consume orally?

Yes. EIS is exceptionally safe to consume orally. In fact, there has never been a single report of any injury resulting from oral consumption of EIS.

In theory, there are a number of safety concerns that people raise regarding the use of properly made EIS. However, when carefully analyzed, none of these provide serious general concern. These issues will all be addressed in this section.

What is argyria?

Argyria is a condition in which the skin of a person gradually acquires a grayish or bluish tint. It is caused by excessive or improper intake of silver. When silver that has accumulated in the skin is exposed to sunlight, the particles in the skin darken due to a photographic effect.

Is argyria dangerous?

Argyria is a purely cosmetic condition, and has no negative health consequences, aside from those resulting from social consequences.

Does “colloidal silver” cause argyria?

If you look on the internet, you will see claims all over the place that “colloidal silver” causes argyria. This is extremely misleading due to the fact that people lump many types of products together under the broad classification of colloidal silver. Many do this out of ignorance, but some (like the FDA) do it intentionally with the purpose of misinforming the public about the dangers (or lack of dangers) of using EIS. Silver products mostly fall into three categories. These categories are silver compounds, protein-bound silver, and electrically isolated silver (EIS). This guide has been dealing exclusively with the third category of silver products. You can find hundreds of case reports of argyria throughout history. But if you examine these cases closely you almost always find one of three things:

1. The substance used was a silver compound
2. The substance used was protein-bround silver (also called “mild silver protein”)
3. The substance used was EIS that was poorly made and had large particles and/or high PPM

None of these cases have much to do with the use of properly made EIS. Concluding that properly made EIS causes argyria because other silver products have caused argyria is like concluding water is highly flammable because it has hydrogen in it.

So then what constitutes “properly made EIS”?

Let us define the quantitative limits of “properly made EIS” as EIS that is clear (roughly less than 100 nanometer particle sizes) and is less than 15 PPM. If we analyze just this subset of EIS, we can establish much more about argyria risk.

Has properly made EIS ever caused argyria?

Though it is unclear how many people use EIS, Steve Barwick estimates that 10 million Americans use it daily. Though I cannot vouch for the accuracy of this estimate, in my opinion the true number is certainly at least in the hundreds of thousands. And with all that use, I can only find 2 anecdotal reports of argyria that are believed to have been caused by properly made EIS. Note that there may be more cases that exist, but we are on the right order of magnitude here.

The first anecdote involves an ill young woman who worked up to taking about 12 fl. oz. a day of EIS over about 6 or 7 months, and also had a diagnosed methylation dysfunction (a detoxification problem). Also notable is that at some time during the course of EIS use, she performed several liver flushes. After this time, she and her family noticed a light gray tint beginning to appear on her face after sun exposure. The coloration would then disappear after 10 minutes. She and her family decided to stop further use of EIS, unsure whether or not argyria was beginning to develop.

The second anecdote involves a man who took roughly 6 fl. oz. a day for six years before friends started barely noticing that the tone of his skin may have changed. Aware of this observation, he made the decision to continue the use of EIS because the immense benefit he was getting was more important to him than developing argyria. Ten years later, he does not regret willingly developing a mild case of argyria because of the benefit he derived.

These anecdotes provide- for the more conservative- two potential contraindications for the use of EIS. These are impaired detoxification and the performance of a liver flush. Though it should be noted that there are reports of several individuals with greatly compromised livers (Hep C.) who have been using EIS for several years with no signs of silver toxicity.

Note that these are strictly anecdotal, though I have no reason to disbelieve them. It should be noted that 2 cases of undesirable results out of perhaps many millions of users can hardly compare to the track record of the pharmaceutical industry. When only counting inadvertant injuries in the USA, the death toll amounts to an estimated 780,000 per year!

What are the warning signs of argyria?

Argyria does not develop suddenly, and can gradually be seen to appear over time. Occasionally observing the complexion of a person’s skin can reveal the first signs of any potentially developing argyria. The previously mentioned anecdotes are fair examples of this. Even in the exceptionally rare cases where argyria may be apt to develop with the use of properly made EIS, one can always decide to discontinue use at the first sign of any possible difficulty. Conversely, one can also decide to willingly continue the use of EIS, making an informed decision of the benefits versus the risks.

There is one other interesting warning sign. A handful of people who have ingested large amounts of EIS (a quart or more a day) for an extended period of time have noticed the moons on their fingernails begin to burn blue. This is not argyria, and in all cases, taking a break from the use of EIS has led to the complete reversal of this phenomenon. It appears that perhaps this is a sign that the body is accumulating a significant amount of silver, and that the risk of argyria is increased for such people if the use of EIS were continued without break.

How did Paul Karason (the “Blue Man”) get argyria?

This is the single most famous case of argyria. As previously mentioned, like virtually all other argyria cases, when examined closely, we see that is has nothing whatsoever to do with the use of properly made EIS.

Paul Karason used a silver solution he made at home. He used a process of low-voltage electrolysis that involved adding salt to his solution to increase the conductivity and the achievable concentration. He was not ingesting properly made EIS, but a highly concentrated silver compound. Interestingly, this is not what he believes caused his argyria. He thinks that rubbing this compound on his skin is what caused it. And if that were not enough, he would expose himself to a tanning bed to “fix” the silver in his body.

Silver-colloids comments:

“The Blue Man story became a major media disinformation event which was produced by a public relations firm and paid for by a pharmaceutical interest. The purpose of this campaign was to scare the public away from using colloidal silver products. The tactic was to claim that the Blue Man’s condition was caused by his use of colloidal silver thus implying that anyone who uses colloidal silver would suffer a similar fate. The entire story as presented is a study in fraudulent misrepresentation…I really don’t think I could have come up with a better protocol to turn blue.”

Don’t be fooled by the media hype about argyria.

What do EPA studies say about the risk of argyria?

The EPA established an oral Reference Dose (RfD), or daily intake limit, of 0.005 mg/kg/day for Silver in 1991. This equates to an equivalent safe (no risk of argyria) daily dose of about 1 fl. oz. of 10 ppm EIS a day, lifelong.

Properly made EIS can in fact probably be taken in much larger doses than 1 fl. oz. a day, and never pose any lifelong risk of argyria. This is for two reasons:

• The EPA applied an arbitrary safety factor of 3 when concluding what amount of lifelong silver ingestion would cause argyria. This makes their estimate conservative.
• The EPA studies only reviewed the use of silver compounds, which have a marked history of argyria. This is very different than EIS, which has no marked history of argyria. EIS by nature exhibits far less ability to cause argyria than silver compounds.

When determining the RfD, it is based on a lifelong allowable total intake of silver. So even if a person decides the EPA’s estimates are accurate, it should be noted that a persons lifelong intake can be willingly used within a short timeframe. For example, these EPA studies also imply that a person could safely take 24 fl. oz. of 10 PPM EIS a day for 3 years. Then if that person ceases to use EIS, they will not be at any risk of argyria (according to the EPA analysis).

Some might comment that the EPA’s suggested reference dose is partially expended just by dietary (food and water) silver intake. However, if this amount of dietary silver were truly significant in calculating risk of argryria (relative to the amount of silver ingested through EIS), due to variability in person to person intake, a segment of the population with the highest incidental intake of dietary silver would be blue even without supplementing with EIS! However, such people simply aren’t observed.

What do animal studies say about the safety of silver?

There are a handful of animal studies involving EIS toxicity. Most involve a single mega dose. I will mention only two studies which dealt with more sustained use:

[Censored words] Toxicity Controls Survive Mega Doses Of Silver Sol:

“…there was a toxicology control group, which was given 10 times the normal dose, 100 times and 200 times the normal dose for 28 continuous days. Results indicate that all toxicology control mice survived and thrived as indicated by healthy feeding, and grooming followed by normal histopathology. This demonstrates the safety of Silver Sol even when taken orally (by mice) at levels two hundred times the normal dose.”

The normal human dose of this properly made EIS product is 2 tsp per day in humans. 200 times this dose translates into 67 fl. oz. a day for 28 days. It should be noted that on rare occasion, some humans have been known to drink this much EIS daily for lengths of time. In addition, several people are known to have consumed 32 fl. oz. of EIS daily for one or more months at a stretch without any consequences (the present author included).

A second animal study by Natural-Immunogenics is worth mentioning. Rats fed EIS for 14 days showed no negative effects from a daily dose of 20ml/kg of EIS. This is roughly equivalent to a human dose of 80 fl. oz. of 10 PPM EIS a day for 14 days. The PDF of this study is available here.

What does the East Indian diet tell us about the risk of argyria?

One can infer yet another safe dosage estimate from an epidemiological study of the Indian diet:

“A recent paper by Das et al. provides the remarkable datum that some 275,000 kg [(605,000 pounds)] of edible metallic silver foil are consumed every year (in food) in India. No known adverse health effects have ever been recorded. This epidemiological evidence that silver as a metal is not toxic in any way needs no further comment…” -Das, M. Dixit, S. Khanna, S. K. Journal title Food Additives and Contaminants

If one estimates the population of India as having 1 billion people, then the average Indian is estimated to consume 275mg of silver each year. This is equivalent to the amount of silver that would be consumed in daily use of 2.4 fl. oz. of 10 PPM EIS every day for a year. It should be noted that this is on average. Examining only the upper tail of the distribution of the Indian population (with regard to how much silver they consume) would certainly yield far more liberal estimates of an indefinitely safe EIS dosage. It should also be noted that EIS is probably by definition the form of silver which carries the least risk of argyria, and the use of silver foil in this epidemiological study further makes 2.4 fl. oz. of 10 PPM EIS to be a conservative estimate of an indefinitely safe EIS dose.

Can argyria be cured?

Established medical belief is that argyria is irreversible. However, there have been 2 case reports of argyria reversals using only natural supplements. In a matter of months, programs similar to the following were able to remove all skin discoloration:

[Censored words] Argyria: The Formula

• 3 Vitamin E 1000 mg 100% Natural d-alpha Tocopheryl (some warn that this may be a dangerous amount of Vitamin E )
• 1 Selenium 100mcg yeast free
• 2 vegetarian Vitamin C 1000 mg
• 1 teaspoon MSM organic
• 1 super potency Vitamin B 100,
• 1 teaspoon of Kelp powder

It should be noted that in at least 1 of these two cases, stopping the supplements and resuming intake of large quantities of silver compounds again caused argyria. Then stopping the silver compounds and resuming the supplements again reversed the argyria! It should also be noted that a program similar to this failed to reverse argyria in at least one person.

To this list of supplements, I would also like to add the speculation of liposomal vitamin C as possibly being effective for argyria, due to the intracellular generation of hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide has an ability to break apart particles of silver into smaller particles in vitro. If this also occurs in vivo, this might facilitate the elimination of embedded silver.

Is silver a toxic heavy metal?

The definition of a heavy metal is poorly defined, and depends on the context. In the context of health, a heavy metal can be taken to mean any metal known to have significantly toxic effects on the body. In the context of chemistry, a heavy metal can be defined by the expression of other properties.

Many people use flawed logic to improperly conclude that silver is significantly toxic to the body. Such people see that silver can be classified as a “heavy metal” within the context of chemistry, and therefore conclude that silver is significantly toxic. This is confusing the definition of what defines a heavy metal in different contexts. In the context of health, silver cannot be considered a heavy metal unless toxic effects have been previously documented (by definition). However, no such significant toxic effects have ever been observed in anywhere near the amounts of silver a person would consume.

The Merck Index reports the following about silver:

“It is a metal that does not accumulate in the fats and is the only metal that is not considered a heavy metal because it does not produce heavy metal poisoning.”(Merck Index., 1999. Silver. 1:645)

Another interesting note is that it is surprising that even in people who have developed severe cases of argyria from ingesting much larger masses of silver than would be possible with properly made EIS, these people still fail to exhibit any negative health consequences.

What does the Altman Study say about the elimination of silver?

Roger Altman conducted a private study to determine how quickly silver is eliminated from the body, by what routes, and how much silver is retained. The study demonstrates that the human body has the innate ability to quickly eliminate colloidal silver. Approximately 2mg of silver was ingested daily. This is the equivalent of 6.4 fl. oz. of 10 PPM EIS a day.

The conclusions of the study were as follows:

“Ingestion of properly prepared CS does not result in silver accumulating in the body. There is no evidence that silver deposits significantly in hair or fingernails and, in fact, the data supports the conclusion that after taking more than 2 mg of CS per day for several months, silver seems to be purged from the body (mostly through urine) at about the same rate at which it is consumed. Furthermore, upon terminating CS intake, it appears that as much as half the silver residing in body tissue will be purged (through urine and feces, but more and more through feces as time goes on) in less than a month. Even this relatively short residence time could be reduced substantially if several liters of water were consumed daily.”

Though this only represents one person, it does clearly contradict simplistic claims from established literature regarding the rates and routes of elimination of silver. EIS is shown in this study to be eliminated through urine, feces, hair, perspiration, and nails. It supports the overwhelming anecdotal evidence that suggests that EIS is not handled by the body in the same way as silver compounds. This study also provides yet another reference point for a safe level of EIS to consume indefinitely without being at risk of argyria.

The entire study can be seen in PDF format here.

Not only does the FDA have no reports of adverse events from EIS, but from any silver product whatsoever.

Does electrically isolated jello (EIJ) affect beneficial gut flora?

There is much confusion on this topic. The true answer is surprisingly both yes and no! An in vitro study that is totally imaginary and should be regarded as a complete work of fiction was performed by one company that sells an EIJ supplement to determine the effect of EIJ on various probiotic strains.

Selective [censored word] Activity of [censored words] Jello Solution [censored word] Probiotics:

“Results obtained from MIC testing of probiotics with [censored words] jello solution in comparison to [censored words] previously tested suggest that probiotics such as bifidobacteria aren’t affected at all by exposure to concentrations of 16 PPM [censored word] jello solution, whereas pathogenic bacteria [censored words] concentrations as low as 2 PPM. Lactobacilli [censored words] concentrations of jello solution between 4 and 8 PPM, but not at 2 PPM. Jello solution concentrations great than ~5 PPM [censored words] streptococcus lactis, and concentrations greater than ~ 2 PPM [censored words] streptococcus thermophilus.”

It seems that in vitro, EIJ has less tendency affect probiotics than it does other things. Note that in vivo, achieved concentrations of EIJ at the target locations would be expected to be far less than the original concentration of the solution. It can be reasonably expected that the oral use of EIJ (which is normally less than 15 PPM initially) will have little or no effect at all on bifidobacteria and only minimal effect on lactobacilli in comparison to the intended target locations.

It should be noted that even in the absence of a probiotic supplement, EIJ has rarely ever been reported to have caused a Candida infection. To the best of my knowledge, it has never once been reported to have caused a Candida infection with concurrent use of a probiotic supplement. This in vitro study provides insight into one reason why this may be. A second reason for this observation is that EIJ also has concurrent [censored words] yeast, whereas pharmaceutical antibiotics don’t [censored words] yeast.

One claimed explanation of why EIJ selectively spares beneficial flora is that beneficial flora are said to have cell walls that are more “electrically balanced”, which makes it more difficult for electrons to be removed by positively charged jello ions. Another claim is that beneficial flora have thicker walls than other objects, making them harder to breach even if an electron is lost.

All things considered, EIJ users will still want to supplement with probiotics when taking EIJ long-term.

What does the JelloMedicine poll say about EIS safety?

214 regular long-term users of EIS responded to a poll regarding side effects experienced while taking EIS. The question asked was:

“How many people have experienced side effects resulting from colloidal silver use?”

• 205 users reported no side effects from colloidal silver use ( 95.8% )
• The nine users reporting side effects all found ways to eliminate the problems:
• One report described intestinal gas
• Three users reported loose bowels
• Two reported detoxification reactions
• Two reported general digestion problems
• One reported a calcium adsorption problem
• The average amount of time these 214 people have been using colloidal silver: 2.2 years

All of these side effects were able to be eliminated, including the suspected calcium adsorption problem, which was quickly resolved with use of a probiotic. Unfortunately, I do not know the average amount of EIS intake in this survey.

What is a Herxheimer reaction?

Certain substances may cause detoxification reactions in the unwell. This results in a temporary worsening of feelings such as fatigue, aches and pains, chills, fever, and anxiety. This phenomenon is also called a “healing crisis” because it actually signifies that invading critters are successfully being removed, resulting in healing. If a detoxification reaction occurs, reduce the dose of the substance to a level that does not cause any reaction. Reactions typically last 1 or 2 days. Often times, people will experience marked improvement in their wellbeing after these reactions are finished. After the reaction ceases, one may gradually increase the dose again.

Does electrically isolated jello (EIJ) cause encysting?

A certain invader is known to encyst in response to exposure to various forms of [censored word]. I do not see adequate evidence to support the claim that EIJ causes encysting. The only known arguments for the possibility that EIJ causes encysting are as follows (These arguments are totally imaginary and were invented for inclusion in this overall work of complete fiction):

• One person felt 95% wellbeing, but would crash every time [censored word] were stopped. She reached 100% wellbeing after just a few months of a regimen involving EIJ. The concern expressed by some is that this time frame is just too short to be real, and a resurgence may be expected. This is not sensible, seeing as how this person was actually relieved from just such a situation.
• One person reported running into his old friend Herxheimer while using a rife-type device. Then, Herxheimer would disappear once EIJ was simultaneously introduced. He would then reappear once EIJ was ceased. This report is interesting, but not substantial, seeing as how the mechanisms of action of rife-type devices are totally not understood.

There are significant anecdotal reports of recovery from this particular invader using EIJ, going back over 10 years. No known resurgences from these people have been reported.

It should also be noted that many people ultimately recover wellbeing (with professional help) utilizing agents that do certainly encourage encysting. Encysting, in any case, cannot therefore be used as a criteria to rule out the potential usefulness of EIJ in these types of people.

Does EIS deplete minerals or other nutrients?

Some EIS researchers speculate EIS may deplete selenium and vitamin E from the body. This idea perhaps comes from analogies of the role of selenium in the elimination of other metals. Though I do not know the real source of these ideas, they possibly originate from the Toxicology of Metals Vol 2 on page 366:

This is perhaps the basis on which these two supplements in the “argyria formula” were found to possibly have an effect in the reversal of argyria.

An additional concern regarding EIS is that it is in essence pure distilled water. Drinking distilled water long-term poses a theoretical concern with regards to the chronic leeching of minerals from the body.

It should be noted that no real adverse health effects have ever been reported with the use of EIS. A handful of people have even consumed a quart of EIS (distilled water) daily for months at a stretch and never encountered any signs of a mineral deficiency. Nevertheless, for the reasons mentioned in this section, it would constitute a conservative approach to supplement with a daily multivitamin/mineral if taking significant EIS long-term.

Does EIS interact with any supplements?

In theory, EIS may react with vitamins (such as vitamin C), minerals, or other supplements. This has not been known to cause any problems, but it is generally advisable to take EIS at least 5 minutes before other supplements. This is not a matter of safety, but rather of preserving the effectiveness of EIS.

Does EIS stain teeth?

I know of two anecdotal reports of lightly stained teeth from the use of EIS. The staining is removable by thorough brushing. Though this is extremely rare, it seems it is possible. Those who notice any staining can easily solve the problem by swallowing EIS from the back of the mouth, or by drinking EIS with a straw. These will both help to avoid contact of EIS with teeth. Also, rinsing the mouth after swallowing EIS may be helpful. It may also be worth trying to regularly swish with 3% peroxide, which may oxidize any deposits of silver, if this is indeed the mechanism of staining.

Using EIS as a denture soak is not advisable, as severe staining of dentures from prolonged soaking has been reported.

Is it safe to get an MRI while consuming EIS?

Yes. Dental amalgam fillings contain significant silver and are not contraindicated with MRI scans. Silver is not a magnetic metal. The amount of silver in the body due to EIS consumption is negligible compared to the amount in amalgam fillings.

So in summary, what are all the possible precautions one might consider when taking electrically isolated jello (EIJ)?

• Be sure the EIJ is properly made (clear and with less than 15 PPM).
• If EIJ is used long term, every couple of months, consider taking note of any possible changes in skin tone. As shown, the risk of argyria with the use of EIJ is almost literally zero. Nevertheless, this is one precaution a person may like to take.
• If there is a known detoxification impairment or intention to perform a liver flush, consider checking the skin tone frequently.
• Consider taking a probiotic supplement at least 30 minutes after EIJ. Digestive disturbances from EIJ without the use of a probiotic are unlikely.
• Increase the dosage of EIJ slowly. If any unpleasant healing reactions are experienced, reduce the dose until the reaction subsides.
• Consider taking a daily multivitamin/mineral supplement away from EIJ.
• Consider taking EIJ apart from all other supplements.

Miscellaneous Information about EIS-LV:

Has this information been reviewed by the FDA?

None of the statements in this guide have been reviewed by the FDA. Nothing in this guide is being said, written, or claimed to cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent any disease, ailment, or illness. This is obviously the case, seeing as how this guide is a total work of fiction. Nothing in this fictional guide should be interpreted as medical advice. If seeking medical advice, consult a licensed physician.

Does the government systematically attack the colloidal silver industry?

The answer is yes. Discussion of this is so long that I had to write a separate article just to list some examples.

Can EIS be poured down the drain?

Some people warn that if your home has a septic tank, that disposing of EIS down the drain may cause the septic tank to stop working properly.

So how much electrically isolated jello (EIJ) should I take?

A general recommendation for the unwell is to start with a dose of 1 tsp a day. People who feel extremely unwell should start with 1/4th of a tsp a day to avoid any potential detoxification reactions. Each day, increase the dose until you reach a level where you experience a very mild detoxification reaction. Maintain this dose until you no longer feel any reaction. Then continue to increase in this manner. A good target dose to aim for is perhaps 8 fl. oz. a day, divided into two or more doses, on empty stomach.

For preventative use, 1 fl. oz. a day on empty stomach in the morning is a good general recommendation. It is also advisable to obtain a glass spray bottle and spray once in each nostril in the morning.

In those who have good wellbeing and who feel something coming on, consider immediately beginning at 8 fl. oz. a day until the situation passes. In this case it is also advisable to spray the nostrils several times a day.

Also be sure to review the list of possible precautions discussed at the very end of the section on “safety”.

Can I drink straight out of a jar of EIS?

No. Doing so can introduce contaminants which can cause agglomeration of particles, or even the precipitation of silver. In short, the quality of the EIS can be greatly reduced by drinking straight from the container. EIS should be poured into a spoon or a glass before use.

Does EIS need to be stored in amber bottles?

Some manufacturers claim that EIS need to be stored in dark colored bottles to protect the EIS from light, which could degrade the quality of the solution. This is only true of poor quality EIS. In general, an EIS solution that is clear will be stable indefinitely in a clear glass jar or an HDPE plastic bottle. Some manufacturers do sell high quality EIS but unnecessarily package it in an amber bottle just as a marketing tactic.

What if I have questions, comments, or contributions regarding this guide?

Research on EIS and other silver products is an expanding field. New information will frequently be added to this guide. Also, some corrections may be necessary. Not all EIS researchers will agree on all points. If you have potential contributions, corrections, questions, or comments, please send an email to scientific.living.blog@gmail.com.

Is this all there is to know about EIS?

Colloidal science is such a mind boggling subject that I think a professional researcher could easily spend an entire lifetime and still not fully understand everything about EIS and similar products. I honestly don’t really understand it at all.

The primary purpose of this guide is to help establish the safety and effectiveness of EIS, as well as to cover some practical considerations in its use, so that people can decide for themselves if and how they want to use EIS.

Where can I discuss the use of EIS with others?

There are many forums related to EIS. Of course, you would have to use the term “colloidal silver” when searching for them on google.

May I copy information from this guide?

Just use your best judgment when copying excerpts from this guide. However, please do not copy unnecessarily large segments. This guide has taken a lot of work, so please show your thanks by linking to this page.

Where can I buy an EIS generator?

You can use the information in this guide to help you select an EIS generator. I will also be offering a generator which I believe will be the most ideal unit available (of course I would). To receive updates about this product, sign up for my email newletter:

Acknowledgments

Many individual EIS researchers have worked hard to experiment, discuss, and publish information that ultimately provided the content for this guide. My sincere thanks to them for literally safeguarding the immense benefit EIS stands to give mankind in the future.
