How It Works

Silver Shield® Rescue Wound Dressing Gel is manufactured using a patented process with strict quality control to verify potency and purity — the result is fine, nano particle-sized silver colloids with 99% bioavailability.

Aqua Sol Technology is a patented process that features a more stable and bioavailable silver particle. This particle is surrounded by a thin multivalent silver oxide coating built of thousands of Ag404 (silver oxide) molecules, creating a silver particle. This structure becomes much more stable and bioavailable through multiple modes of action.

By utilizing an effective electrostatic charge, the stabilized nano-silver particle has the ability to steal multiple electrons, compared to ionic silvers that can only steal one.

And our Silver Shield® nano-particles are backed by many independent studies!

Silver has been used for thousands of years for its beneficial immune system effects.

Ancient peoples living in parts of Asia and the Mediterranean region (including the Roman Empire) used silver drinking vessels and stored their liquids in silver containers to keep them fresh. And American pioneers placed silver dollars into milk jugs to prevent spoilage as they trod the dusty plains.

But what about silver in the medical realm?

Hippocrates (460-370 BC), the Father of Medicine, wrote about using silver to treat wounds more than 2,000 years ago. In 1900, the Eclectic Medical Journal Volume 60 explained the benefits of applying silver foil to abdominal surgeries and burns. And, World War I battle medics applied silver leaf to wounded soldiers.

Today, silver is frequently used in bandages, wound dressings, and as a coating on some medical devices (catheters, endotracheal tubes, etc.) in an effort to reduce risk of infection.

The Swiss Army uses silver to help purify their water. Plus, silver is even used in NASA clothing and on the space station!

Studies show that silver nano-particles can anchor to the cell wall of bacteria and consequently infiltrate it. This action will cause physical changes or damage in the bacterial membrane, which is harmful to the bacteria.
