The body is able to utilize the silver element the same as it can separate the sodium from sodium chloride. Soda in the amount I've been talking about is not likely to produce much salts anyway. Only the amount that can be dipped with the very tip of a tooth pic.
Absolutely. I mainly wanted to answer the persons question about the water. I have found it very important to not have much dissolved oxygen and boiling for a few minutes of any well purified water, like reverse osmosis and even distilled that has been sitting for a while is helpful to the process. But, it evolved from there to questions about electrolyte.
If the body can separate sodium from sodium chloride then I think that it can handle silver too. The silver I have been making has always worked. It even worked topically to stop a skin breakout when my young daughter was playing in a box of old moldy clothes one time. Too much is made of particle size. Home made colloidal silver will have particles of many sizes but the body doesn't need very much to help the immune system anyway. The important point is to make it and use it.
