92: The Hidden Power of Minerals, Colloidal Silver, Copper and Gold with Seth Quinto

If you've ever wondered whether you're actually getting everything your cells need from a "balanced diet," this episode is for you. We talk so much about magnesium and calcium on this show, but there's a whole category of trace minerals and metals working quietly behind the scenes in your body, and most of us have never been taught why they matter or how to use them well. This week I sat down with my dear friend and colleague Seth Quinto, co-founder of Natural Immunogenics and the force behind Sovereign Silver and Argentyn 23, to talk about one of the most misunderstood substances in natural health: colloidal silver.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why trace minerals and metals, not just the "big two" like calcium and magnesium, are essential to cellular processes and often overlooked in mainstream nutrition conversations.
  • The real history of colloidal silver, why it's been used for millennia, and why most people have never heard about it in a medical context.
  • What separates a properly manufactured, bioavailable silver product from something you'd find sitting in a plastic bottle on a health food store shelf.
  • How Argentyn 23 is being used in biologic dental practices, including post-extraction healing support, and why sourcing and manufacturing quality matter so much here.
  • Why "sovereignty," taking ownership of your own health decisions, is at the center of how Seth and his family built this company.

About Seth Quinto:
Seth Quinto is co-founder of Natural Immunogenics, the company behind Sovereign Silver and Argentyn 23. He joined the family business in 2001 after a career on Wall Street, and has spent over two decades building relationships with medical, dental, and naturopathic practitioners across the country. What started as his father's late-in-life research project became one of the most trusted names in colloidal silver, built on serious science and even more serious integrity.

Key Insights:
One of the things I loved most about this conversation is how much of Seth's story is really a story about persistence and purpose. His father lost his life's work in aviation, and rather than give up, he redirected that same drive into what became the largest independent research effort ever undertaken on silver. That's the kind of origin story that tells you everything about why this company does things the hard, right way instead of the easy way.

We also got into something I see in my own practice constantly: the difference between products that just mask a symptom and products that actually support your body's own healing mechanisms. Seth talked about how Argentyn 23 is used after extractions and more involved procedures to support healing, and honestly, it echoes what I tell patients all the time. When you give the body what it needs instead of just suppressing what it's doing, healing looks completely different.

Seth also shared something I think about a lot, the idea of "clean terminals." Just like a battery needs clean connections to function well, our bodies need us to be intentional about what we eat, what we're exposed to, and who we surround ourselves with. It's such a simple metaphor, but it really is the root of the matter.

J.F.

I have had several bad dentists in the past. On a visit to my daughter, a cap on my front tooth broke off. Dr Carver repaired it very well, still holding. We moved into the area and I made an appointment with Dr Carver, she has made me forget about the bad ones. I’m very satisfied with the work she has done, she fixed several poorly done work performed by my previous Dentist.

P.M.

When I described to Rachaele my 6 weeks of severely congested ears that had led me to near-deafness, I didn’t expect her, a dentist, to have an answer for me. But she did. After two ozone treatments, the left ear is back online and the right ear is beginning to clear. It’s returning me to pleasurable engagement with life when nothing else had helped me. I am so grateful.

I have on my side a 9″ surgical scar from kidney Cancer 4 years ago that always bothered me to the point I had to buy a abdomen strap since the surgerie. So when Dr. Carver introduced to me Ozone Therapy I was sceptical at first but after the first treatment and thought that maybe it was psycho somatic but when I received my second session I was less pre-occupied with the pain. As for the third session I was able to moe my lawn for the first time in nearly five years Without the Adomen Strap! So now after the forth session im not feeling much of the pain I’ve had to deal with All These Years! Seeing that Her primary profession is Dentistry its incredible that all the Drs I’ve been to None of them offered help and I was told that it’s what I’ll have to Deal with and I should be happy that I didn’t die of cancer.
You can’t loose, at least Give it a Try!
