Mild silver protein is a certain type of colloidal silver. Specifically, it is a colloidal silver that contains an added protein. As explained in the colloidal silver article, colloidal silver is made by mixing silver, water, and other miscalenous subtances. To make mild silver protein, one simply adds any type of protein to the mix. Mild silver protein may be reffered to as colloidal silver, since that's exactly what it is.
Mild silver protein started gaining popularity because "colloidal silver" became associated with all sorts of fraudulent or ineffective products. Companies and individual persons started to make very crazy claims (and still do) with regard to colloidal silver. When the term "colloidal silver" was seen as "dirt" by the public (10 years ago or more) companies started referring to their product as "mild silver protein" to keep them on the market.
Today, however, the term mild silver protein seems to turn consumers away. Frauds have given it the same reputation colloidal silver has. It should be very well understood that mild silver protein is really the exact same thing as colloidal silver.
Note: The remainder of this article may closely repeat the colloidal silver article.
Understanding Mild Silver Protein
It is vital to understand that most anything can be referred to as "mild silver protein". If an individual dumps links of a silver chain into water and adds any type of "protein", as long as the links are moving around submerged, the individual may call this product "mild silver protein". Once the silver links sink to the bottom (falls out of suspense), the product is technically no longer mild silver protein.
However, if shaken, the product once again becomes "mild silver protein". 99% of mild silver proteins fall out of suspension, however, companies still refer to them as if they don't, knowingly misinforming the public. Because the silver used is typically much smaller then a solid link, it takes more time for it to sink to the bottom and come out of suspense.
It is important to remember that any type of silver suspended in a liquid, along with an added protein, may be called "mild silver protein". Furthermore, substances and chemicals may be added to the mix, and the product may still be referred to as "mild silver protein". To conclude, no 2 mild silver proteins are ever the same and mild silver protein can be most anything.
The Mild Silver Protein Claims
Mild silver protein has become notorious for outrageous and illogical claims. Scam-artists and fraudulent supplement companies continue to thrive as they thoroughly convince individuals of what mild silver protein is capable of. However, after learning what mild silver protein is, it seems just laughable for anyone to attempt to say mild silver protein can produce certain effects.
It would be the same as saying "You should buy one of our used cars. Cars have a 5 star crash test rating. Recently, cars have side airbags..." It is absolutely impossible to make any claim on the word "car". You must be able to identify a specific car in order to make a claim on it.
It is impossible to say mild silver protein can produce any effects, and all who do should immediately be labeled a con-artist. Many consumers will defend their suppliers by thinking "well, perhaps my supplier does not know all mild silver proteins are different." However, they most certainly do. Just as you believe it is outrageous to make claims on "cars", it is likewise outrageous to make claims on mild silver protein. The major difference being consumers know enough about the car industry, whereas they typically know little of the mild silver protein industry.
It is usually not ones fault they do not know anything about the industry. The problem generally comes about because of the inability to locate accurate / ethical information. Claims can only be made on an identifiable (brand name) mild silver protein, just as is the case with cars. Further, if (in the unlikely event) a claim can be made on a brand name mild silver protein, it is exclusive to that brand name.
If a Toyota has a 5 star crash test rating, Honda cannot use that test information to sell any of their vehicles, because the information would not apply. Toyota's car is completely different from Honda's, making the crash test exclusive to Toyota. This information is common knowledge to the public, and any consumer would consider Honda completely unethical if they attempted to sell a car with a Toyota crash test rating.
This analogy applies in the exact same way to brand name mild silver proteins. Any company that makes a claim based on what effects another mild silver protein can produce is completely fraudulent. If any company attempts this, consumers should be outraged and angry, just as they would be if the above car example occurred.
When researching any claims made, consumers should personally view customer reports and clinical trials written in regard to the brand name mild silver protein. Be sure the name of the product is located on the customer report / clinical trial. If it is not, the claims are most likely false, no matter what excuse a company uses. To view helpful tips for detecting fraudulent clinical trials, read this news article.
As a section recap, It is essential for all consumers to accept that any claim made on "mild silver protein" is completely fraudulent. Claims may only be made on brand name products, in which case consumers must still remain extremely cautious and on alert for fraudulent or misleading sources.
Why Explain Mild Silver Protein?
Many of the mild silver protein fraudulent companies and scam-artists have based their claims on Silvicidal test results. When the original doctors developed Silvicidal and had to classify it as something, they classified it as "an enhanced type of mild silver protein". Mild silver protein is the most closely related (but distant) word that Silvicidal may be classified under. Classifying Silvicidal as mild silver protein makes it easily available to the public as a dietary supplement.
Nevertheless, doing so has cost Strictly Supplements, and DEDI, much more then we had expected. The classification of Silvicidal has spawned a race of con-artists, some easily identified, others very difficult, as they appear to be very legitimate companies and have employed professional writers to publish well-written mild silver protein articles. It should be noted the most difficult scam-artists to identify are large companies that merely offer mild silver protein as a name on a huge list of products.
Identifying Mild Silver Protein Frauds
After reading this article and learning clearly what mild silver protein is, scam-artists should be easily identified. Below are a few helpful tips that may assist you in identifying frauds.
Always look hard at what a company has written about a product and what they know. Make sure everything they write or say makes complete sense. Do not let yourself get lost in "big" words they may use. Do not let yourself believe you don't understand because they know more then you. Big or small, be sure the words they use and what they're explaining makes sense.
Ask detailed questions about a company's products. Be sure you get answers and answers that make sense. After viewing this article, consumers should be able to easily identify weaknesses of fraudulent companies offering mild silver protein.
Do not tell yourself you must have a product because of it's claims. It is cruel when you are suffering from some affliction and are unable to find a cure. Then, come across some website that says they have a product that will cure you. Even though you wish it to be true, it is probably not. Do not LOSE faith, but at least investigate this website and determine if they are frauds or not. Though it may be very difficult, do not allow yourself to ignore the facts.
Lastly, view GHI/MRI's Consumer Protection Division. This division is dedicated to protecting consumers from frauds in the supplement industry. If you are ever looking into any supplement, and you are not sure if it is a fraud, look to see if it is listed on GHI/MRI's website. If it is not, ask GHI/MRI to investigate it for you and give you their opinion.
Strictly Supplements supports the GHI/MRI Consumer Protection Division, and urges all consumers to do the same by reporting fraudulent companies. If the frauds are to be stopped in this industry, consumer reports provide the only hope.
