ABL Reports Positive Results from Human-Ingestion Safety Study on Nano-Silver Particle Supplement

American Biotech Labs (ABL) has just released what is believed to be the first ever human-ingestion safety study on both a silver supplement, and also a nano-particle. The published abstract for the study states that ingestion of the patented ABL nano-silver particle showed no negative effects on any tested system in the body.
