    Are you crazy? I have read instructions to make it, and I think I would rather leave the hassle to somebody else!

    Yes Ianian99. Not to mention the purchase of a gallon glass jar,plus amber jars for storage, alligator clips and solder with relevant tools that I don't happen to have lying around! I have never used colloidal silver and thought I would give it a go as an age old antibiotic.

    I've seen it sold in Holland and Barret, but I can't remember how much for and I've never tried it myself either. No idea the quality of it. Sorry if this isn't much use!
    Owing to financial constraints, the light at the end of the tunnel has been switched off until further notice. :(
