De kracht van zilver (Het is niet alleen meer voor sieraden!).

Colloidal silver is a form of pure silver suspended as microscopic flakes in demineralised water. Silver has long been used in hospitals as a topical wound dressing as it has been shown to be antibacterial and to promote healing, particularly in the healing of burns and to treat conditions such as:

Pneumonia
Skin rashes
Sinus infections
Flu
and more

Studies have concluded that there are potential side-effects to promote the use of colloidal silver internally, but its use topically has been proven to be safe and shown to enhance healing.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Research has shown that colloidal silver attaches to the proteins on the cell walls of bacteria, damaging their cell membranes. This allows the silver ions to pass into the cells where they can interfere with the bacteria’s metabolic processes and damage the DNA, causing cell death. There is no known bacteria or virus that can survive in the presence of silver, as it disrupts the respiration process.

WHERE TO USE IT

Thanks to the powerful healing properties of silver, we have included it in our Group 11 Active Mist and our Gold & Lime Caviar Coconut Membrane Sheet Mask to help regenerate and protect your skin.

Colloidal silver is also a valuable natural addition to hand sanitisers as it both aids in the destruction of microbial bacteria and is healing and protective for the sensitive skin on your hands. It serves as an added line of defence against infection.

JUST REMEMBER…

It is important to always use colloidal silver from a reputable skincare or health brand as they will make sure that they are using the safe non-ionic silver in the correct form.
