What is the function of silver products?

In life, silver jewelry is very common to many people. Silver jewelry is made of a unique material. Wearing silver jewelry can detoxify the body. Since silver jewelry contains certain charged ions, it can remove some bacteria and achieve the detoxification effect. Silverware is also relatively common and can distinguish whether there are toxins in food.

What is the function of silver?

Poison Identification

The principle of silverware being able to detect poison is that silver can form positively charged ions in water, which can adsorb bacteria in the water and gradually enter the bacteria, closing and inactivating its catalyst-enzyme system, causing the bacteria to lose their metabolic ability and die. Therefore, using silver to make bowls and chopsticks in daily life is still very beneficial. Silver can only detect some poisons containing sulfur, but not organic poisons. If you go on a picnic, wash the silver jewelry, chopsticks, rings, etc. when washing rice and vegetables, and put them in there and stir them to kill many of the microorganisms inside.

Anti-inflammatory

If you wear a pair of iron earrings on a newly pierced ear, it is 100% certain that the ear will become inflamed. However, if you wear silver earrings, not only will the ear not become inflamed, but the wound will heal quickly.

Before the discovery of antibiotics, inflammation was fatal and even a minor injury could take a person's life if not treated properly. Breaking the silver you carry with you into silver sheets and covering the wound with them can not only prevent the wound from getting infected, but also speed up the healing of the wound.

Sterilization

When a person is sick, there are two possible reasons, internal and external. Endogenous factors refer to the body's own metabolic disorders that cause diseases, such as diabetes, dwarfism, etc.; exogenous factors refer to diseases caused by external influences or infections with harmful microorganisms, the most common of which are viral infections and bacterial infections.

Preservation and freshness

Ethnic minorities in many parts of our country like to use silver utensils to serve food, so that the food can remain fresh and delicious for a long time. Here is an example. When guests come to the grassland, the highest etiquette of the grassland people in receiving them is to offer them kumis in a silver bowl. The silver bowl is not only a symbol of nobility and purity, representing the highest courtesy, but also has the function of preservation. If the mare's milk is placed in an ordinary bowl, it will go bad after a few days, but the mare's milk placed in a silver bowl can remain fresh and mellow for a long time.

Dehumidification

Dehumidification refers to the work of removing rheumatism and removing damp heat. For example, acupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine uses silver needles.

For example: The Sichuan Basin has a relatively humid climate due to its topography. Because of the effect of silver in removing rheumatism, people living there like to wear silver jewelry. In the Liangshan area of ​​Sichuan, the local Yi people have a folk remedy. When people are sick, they boil an egg, peel off the eggshell while it is hot, then dig out the yolk, put a piece of silver inside, wrap the egg with a hot towel, and roll it back and forth on the patient's temples, the insides of both palms, and belly. After the egg has cooled, take out the silver inside. You can see that the surface of the silver has turned black, indicating that it has absorbed the moisture out of the patient's body.

Purify water

Silver ions can kill bacteria and purify water. Someone once did an experiment in which an iron bucket and a silver bucket were filled with tap water at the same time and left open for a month. Half a bucket of green muddy water was left in the iron bucket, while half a bucket of clear tap water was left in the silver bucket. Drinking from a silver wine glass can make the wine taste more mellow due to the blending effect of silver ions and alcohol. In ancient times, people already knew that silver could be taken internally or externally. External use means acupuncture with silver needles and covering wounds with silver sheets to prevent infection. For internal use, put the red-hot silver in water, wait for the water to cool down and drink it. It has a good therapeutic effect on gastrointestinal diseases.
