What is the difference between ionic silver and colloidal silver?

I realise both are suspensions of silver as a mineral supplement - but are they the same thing?
Answer:
You know, I was wondering the same thing when a co-worker of mine, also into the healty lifestyle mentioned to me the wonders of Collodial Silver.I started searching the web and came across this site:
http://www.silver-colloids.com/reports/r...It explains in full detail the differences between ionic silver solutions , silver protein, and true colloidal silver. If also gives you the results of scientific trials ran on several brand so that you can make an informed decision on which brand to buy.
I like newbieblue's answer. The link has a lot of good info. But it is written by a company that sells ionic silver. There is a lot of controversy about which is better. Ionic silver contains much smaller particles of silver than plain old colloidal silver. The idea is that it is absorbed into the bloodstream more readily. The colloidal silver manufacturers have come to rely on parts-per-million as a measurement of strength: 500ppm vs 10ppm you can get in homemade product. Now the ionic guys are saying particle size is everything and most of their product is only 20ppm, which isn't much.Anecdotally, both products work well. Even just eating off a silver plate and using a silver spoon puts some bacteria-killing silver into the body. Personally I wouldn't pay a lot more for ionic silver. I work in a natural foods store.
