Customer Reviews of Natural Path Silver Wings Dietary Mineral Supplement, Colloidal Silver, 500 PPM, 4 fl. oz. / 120 ml
Customer Review: This product is usually good!!
Summary: 3 Stars
I use this product on a regular basis. I know that it's good. But this particular bottle I received tasted old. I'll just pay the high price at the store rather than gag on the cheaper mail order brand.Customer Review: Don't get it
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this to help clear up a sinus infection per a friends recommendation and it didn;t work for me. I do a couple of drops in my juice with a multi and don't notice any difference in my health.Customer Review: Can Cause Argyria
Summary: 1 Stars
I don't often post negative reviews (and I doubt it will get many "helpful" ratings) but if this review encourages anyone who uses silver to do a little more research, it's worth it.
Please take just a second to do a web search for ARGYRIA before taking any product containing silver. Taking silver causes permanent gray skin coloration (argyria) in many people. It is irreversible. Some studies suggest it is also a neurological toxin. Furthermore, no legitimate published study has ever proven silver to be therapeutic for any condition.
A technical but comprehensive report:
Fung MC, Bowen DL (1996). "Silver products for medical indications: risk-benefit assessment". Journal of Toxicology. Clinical Toxicology 34 (1): 119-26.
Wikipedia's short, easy-to-read article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argyria
You may also look up Rosemary Jacobs, who suffers from argyria from silver supplements and is now a patient advocate.
Do not rely on testimonials or "studies" provided by those who are asking for your money. Based on the totality of evidence, any oral silver product on the market must be sold by people who are either unscrupulous or uneducated.
Make a quick phone call to your own doctor before taking silver or any other oral supplement.

Dangerous product! Please do your research before taking colloidal silver, as this can do permanent damage.
