What are the Health Benefits of Colloidal Gold and Monatomic Gold?

Gold is a precious metal that has been prized since ancient times and was once thought to contain all of the energy and power of the sun. Colloidal gold is known today as a health supplement that can aid the treatment and lead to improvement in several medical conditions.  So what is colloidal gold? Colloidal gold is a suspension of microscopic particles of gold in liquid, usually distilled water.  Colloidal gold is also known as nanogold, and the colour of the suspension is usually either a vivid red colour or a sludgy yellow colour if the gold particles are larger

Usually the gold nanoparticles are produced in a fluid by reduction of chloroauric acid. After dissolving the chloroauric acid, the liquid is stirred very quickly as a reducing agent is added. Gradually neutral gold atoms are formed and eventually the fluid becomes supersaturated and gold starts to precipitate in the form of sub-nanometer particles. As more gold atoms are formed they stick to these particles and the uniformity of the particle size is all down to how vigorously the solution is stirred.

The concept or idea of an ‘Elixir of Life' created from gold has been around since ancient times.  The Ancient Egyptians used gold in dentistry and believed that if they ingested gold that their life force would be stimulated and that both the body and soul would be purified.  An elixir was created in Alexandria, known as liquid gold, which supposedly could restore youth and vigour to the old and infirm. In Ancient Rome, gold salves were used to heal skin complaints and ulcers and colloidal gold was used to stain glass.  The colour of the glass created depended on the concentration of the gold, and the Romans managed to achieve vivid shades of mauve, red and yellow glass by this method.

Gold elixirs for health and beauty were popular in medieval and Renaissance Europe, and Diane de Poitiers, the famous royal mistress of King Henri II of France, was said to have maintained her beautiful white skin and youthful looks well into old age by drinking a gold elixir. The famous alchemist Paracelsus reputedly concocted a potion called Aurum Potabile or ‘potable gold'. As an alchemist, Paracelsus would have believed that gold represented ‘the perfection of matter' and that by taking gold into your body you would be rejuvenating and rebalancing your life force. It was this idea from Paracelsus that encouraged Michael Faraday in 1857 to create what he called ‘activated gold' and which was the first pure specimen of colloidal gold.   In 1898, Richard Adolf Zsigmondy, concocted the first colloidal gold in diluted solution. In the early 20th century, surgeons would sew a gold coin under the skin near a sore and inflamed joint, to help soothe the pain and reduce the inflammation.
Colloidal gold is used to alleviate the symptoms of several diseases and condition.  Medical studies have shown that using colloidal gold relieves the symptoms of aching, swollen joints that are associated with arthritis. Taking colloidal gold is believed to improve mobility, reduce swelling around the joint and ease the pain of arthritis, as gold is an immune-suppressive and so stifles the autoimmune response and painful inflammation of rheumatoid arthritis.  Colloidal gold is also known as an energy and libido booster, as it stimulates the natural cell functions of our bodies. health Taking colloidal gold as a health supplement is also known to help improve mental alertness, as it increases the conductivity between neurons in the brain. In studies, it was shown that people who took colloidal gold daily for a month showed increased ability to concentrate and raised IQ levels. Colloidal gold is also now being used for nervous conditions that involve poor concentration, memory loss, depression, anxiety and problems with language. Colloidal gold can also be taken as a relaxant, as it soothes the nerves and relieves stress.

In the US in the 19th century colloidal gold was used as a cure for alcoholism, or dipsomania as it was then called, and is still used today to reduce cravings for nicotine, caffeine, sugar and alcohol. Colloidal gold cream is used as an anti-ageing skin treatment on the skin and there are colloidal gold creams available that offer topical pain relief. Gold is also used in some modern cancer therapies.  Microscopic gold is injected into men suffering from prostate cancer to help prevent the growth of the cancer, and women are given gold solutions as a treatment for ovarian health cancer.
