World Health Organization standard for acceptable concentrations of silver in drinking water.
How it is made
Silver enriched water is produced in accordance with our patented electrochemical method and was obtained by electrochemical dissolution of silver electrodes with a purity of 99.99% in water, this means that no chemicals are used in the production as in other similar products, which guarantees its homogeneity and absence of harmful impurities. Made in this way our product has a very high level of activity thanks to which you can take advantage of the full power of silver. Silver ions have a detrimental effect on all known pathogens.
Usage
1 ml is sufficient to decontaminate 1 liter of drinking water. One cap equals 2 milliliters of water. The silver water of Prime may be used in combination with the copper of water of Proryme as long as they are not mixed in their concentrated form.
Content
water, silver ions (Ag 12-15mg / 100ml).
Silver: What It Can Really Do
People have used silver since ancient times for its antimicrobial properties. Today, interest in it is growing again, especially in silver nanoparticles. Under laboratory conditions, silver is active against a wide range of bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and some viruses.
Proven Benefits
In dentistry, silver diamine fluoride stops tooth decay from progressing in more than 80% of cases. Application is minimally invasive and painless, which makes it especially suitable for young children, older adults, and patients who have difficulty tolerating standard dental treatment. In 2021, the World Health Organization added it to its List of Essential Medicines.
Hospitals use silver dressings to treat burns and wounds. According to a meta-analysis, nanocrystalline silver dressings shorten burn healing time by about 3 days compared with the older silver sulfadiazine cream.
Research on combining silver with antibiotics is also promising. In laboratory experiments and studies in mice, silver enhances the effect of many antibiotics against Gram-negative bacteria and can make resistant strains susceptible again. In mice with life-threatening peritonitis, a combination of vancomycin and silver saved about 90% of the animals, while only about 10% survived on vancomycin alone.
Water Purification
In hospitals, copper-silver ionization of the water system is used to control Legionella, the bacterium that causes Legionnaires’ disease. In a study of 16 U.S. hospitals, half stopped detecting Legionella, and there was not a single hospital-acquired case of the disease. The method is estimated to be in use today in more than 1,000 buildings across the U.S., including leading cancer and transplant centers.
Silver also keeps drinking water safe in space. Soviet and Russian spacecraft have used it for decades, including in the Russian segment of the International Space Station. NASA also uses it in the drinking water tank of Orion, the spacecraft for its lunar missions.
At home, the activated carbon in many filters is coated with silver to keep bacteria from growing inside the filter itself. Ceramic filters impregnated with silver provide cleaner water for millions of people in developing countries. Silver-based products help keep the water in boat and RV tanks fresh for longer. Silver is not a substitute for chlorination in municipal water systems, but it is valuable wherever water needs to stay clean for a long time.
Silver Is Not a Medicine
Colloidal silver and “silver water” are not medicines. There is no evidence that drinking, gargling, or inhaling them cures any disease. Silver is not a mineral the body needs. Long-term intake can cause argyria. The benefits described above come from specific products and technologies used by professionals, not from homemade silver water. Colloidal silver should never be a reason to put off seeing a doctor.
