Colloidal Silver and Candida – Is this an effective home remedy for yeast infections? It seems that the use of silver as a home remedy for yeast infections has mixed opinions. This article will discuss this natural treatment, including its pros and cons for fighting recurring yeast infections.

Colloidal silver is known for its ability to fight fungus in the body. they are actually very fine particles of silver, suspended in a water solution and have antimicrobial properties. Research claims that colloidal silver works by only attacking the “bad bacteria” in the body, while leaving the “good bacteria” alone. This works differently than antibiotics used for infections and viruses: One complication of overuse of antibiotics is that they destroy the “good bacteria” in the body, which is necessary for proper yeast balance.

Here are some concerns that have been raised by people who have tried using colloidal silver as a home remedy for yeast infections:

1) There have been reports of stomach aches and lethargy (perhaps from the wrong dosage?)

2) When silver is used without medical attention, it is difficult to determine how much is ‘too much’, and overuse of this remedy can cause more harm than good.

In conclusion, the internal use of colloidal silver to cure a yeast infection is not recommended. However, there are some soaps and lotions on the market that contain this ingredient. This might be a good alternative to using this as a topical remedy (instead of taking it internally), just to be safe.
