Aim: This current paper examines the laboratory analysis of the first study on both safety and toxicity of colloidal silver life water manufactured by Edigaf Services in Ghana as homeopathic remedy. Method: The research institution, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Ashanti region, Ghana conducted an extensive investigations into the product. Different departments of the University conducted different analysis. The Department of Pharmacology conducted two different tests. In the first test, twenty animals were divided into two groups, control (n=10) and test animals (n=10). The control received ad libitum of normal tap water while the test group was provided with Silver life water. Both groups were given normal rodent feed (Agricare Ltd, Kumasi, Ghana). Water bottles (300 ml) were refilled as and when needed. Animals were then observed daily for 5 days for signs of toxicity. In the second test, rats were divided in 3 groups (n=5) and treated with 0, 5 ml/kg and 8ml/kg of the test water (Silver life) and observed over 48 hours for signs of toxicity. In the third test, the Department of Theoretical and Applied Biology/Environmental Science and Chemistry for microbiological and physicochemical analysis also compared the bacterial numbers and physicochemical properties of Silver Life Water and Raw Water in the laboratory. Result: In the first test, none of the animals died during the study period. There were also no signs of toxicity attributable to the water under study. In the second test, none of the animals died during period and no signs of toxicity attributable to the test water treatment were observed. The lethal dose (LD50) of the water was estimated to be above 8 ml/kg. The microbiological report revealed that the Silver Life Colloidal Water is of VERY GOOD QUALITY and that of the Raw water was equally good. Both product samples are microbiologically SAFE for drinking. They conform to WHO Guidelines and Ghana Standards (GS) 175-1:
