SILVER: AN ELEMENT OF GOOD HEALTH
  
If you're a silver lover, here's something else you'll appreciate about this lustrous metal: it can kill or suppress the

growth of microorganisms such as bacteria, mold and fungus. Silver ions have a toxic effect on these organisms

without harm to humans. Its germicidal properties have been well documented through its use in wound dressings,

to stop infections and promote healing. These properties have the same effect with silver objects. Stainless steel

does not offer these benefits, nor does it retain its value. Why not use something that has been staving off illnesses

naturally for centuries? Consider drinking from a silver goblet or eating from silver flatware an elegant way to stay

 healthier. And if you use your silver daily- it will need far less polishing.  With thanks to Jeff Herman, hermansilver.com
