The navigators, going to a distant voyage, transported and stored water in silver containers. This metal was used to make dishes and jewelry. The fact is known that the generals of the campaign of Alexander the Great, unlike the ordinary soldiers, almost did not hurt, although they were in the same conditions.

The ancient Indians also knew the useful properties of silver and they used them, namely, with red-hot silver disinfected water.

Ancient medicine men knew that silver effectively eliminates pathogenic flora and does not harm the human mucosa.
It has long been known that the waters of the Ganges River are characterized by numerous healing properties.

But it should be noted that an overdose of silver can cause the appearance of allergies, which can manifest as a darkening of the skin.
