Sweating might be a problem to some people, while some people just let it go as something natural and will look at ways and means to deal with it. More and more though people are looking for natural products and this is partly the reason why they go searching for natural antiperspirant and deodorant products.

Most of us will be content with using the commercially available deodorants and antiperspirants, regardless of what ingredients goes into them and what those ingredients can do to us.

A very few of us though, have cottoned on to the fact that there may be contained within these deodorants and antiperspirants, ingredients which may be harmful to us. This is why we go in search of such things as natural antiperspirant and deodorants.

Of course, the fact that sweating is a natural occurrence and an essential part of the body’s function is a completely different story altogether. Or rather, it is the foundation of the search for natural antiperspirant and deodorants. Why? For the simple reason, that because sweating is a natural occurrence, there is no such “natural antiperspirant” per se.

There is of course, such a thing as a natural deodorant, and these are readily available, for instance in the form of crystal deodorant rocks. These alum crystal rocks kill the bacteria which causes sweat induced odor, but since it is a deodorant only and not an antiperspirant, it does not stop you from sweating. It merely keeps you odor free.

This is an example of a natural deodorant, and there are more such natural deodorants available. A natural antiperspirant however, just doesn’t seem to be on the cards, and is not something that is readily found anywhere.

There can and will be natural substances which will inhibit the production of sweat, and if you come across a natural antiperspirant you will want to be very careful in your usage of it. As mentioned earlier sweating is a natural biological function and serves a purpose, therefore using an antiperspirant, be it a natural antiperspirant or a commercially produced antiperspirant, can cause you undue problems if used on a long term basis. .

The best thing that you can do would be to use a natural deodorant, but since this doesn’t stop the sweating, you might not be satisfied with this for very long. Just remember that a natural antiperspirant isn’t always as safe to use in the long run as you might wish it to be. So think twice before using it on a daily basis.

Liquid Colloidal Silver

The precious metal, silver, is mined for several industrial purposes. It is utilized in jewelry, electronic equipment, dental fillings, silverware, disinfecting water, and photographic processing.

It should be noted that people are exposed to silver all the time. There are particles of silver too tiny for the naked eye to see found in our surroundings – the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food that we eat. It is also possible that we are exposed to silver in our work or in our hobbies.

While silver has no biological function in living organisms, silver has had some medicinal uses. For centuries it has been used as a form of allopathic medicinal drug to treat various illnesses. However, modern drugs have long since replaced silver in those uses.

Still, there are a few existing prescription drugs that contain silver. One good example of a silver-containing drug still in use is silver nitrate, which his used to prevent conjunctivitis, a condition of the eyes affecting newborn babies. Silver nitrate may also be used to treat skin conditions, such as warts and corns. There is also another drug, called silver sulfadizine, used to treat burns. Both these drugs are applied to the body. In other words, they are topical treatments and not taken orally.

What is liquid colloidal silver?

Liquid colloidal silver is a silver product that contains silver particles suspended in liquid. While most liquid colloidal silver products are made of pure silver and liquid base, some may actually contain additives. For instance, liquid colloidal silver may contain proteins and coloring.

Most liquid colloidal silver products are available as oral supplements, in which case they are considered as dietary supplements. However, there are some products that can be applied topically.

How it works

Liquid colloidal silver has a bad reputation in conventional medicine. Many scientific circles have long held the traditional belief that the substance is toxic and should be avoided in place of more modern and less harmful drugs. However, proponents of alternative medicine have a different view all together. In fact, they are all praises for liquid colloidal silver as an antibiotic.

In the book, Prescription for Nutritional Healing, authors Phyllis A. Balch and Dr. James F. Balch wrote that colloidal silver can offer a safe and inexpensive way to protect yourself from infections.

According to Dr. Balch, topical application of liquid colloidal silver can help “fight fungal infections of the skin or nails” as well as promote healing by speeding up tissue formation in burns, wounds, rashes, sunburn, and cuts. In addition to that, it can also be used to treat toothaches and mouth soars. Used as eye drops, it can help prevent infections of the eyes, such as conjunctivitis which can cause blindness in newborn babies.
