In my experience, no. I've taken it many times with no side effects. Colloidal silver attacks single-cell organisms, not the beneficial multi-cell bacteria (which pharmaceutical antibiotics also kill in addition to single cell, hence the need to replenish your digestive system).
Just limit the amount that you take, and make sure that it comes from a reputable source.

No. Colloidal silver only attacks foreign bacteria, fungi and virus. Make sure the silver is certified and the smallest size with highest concentration you can find.

Colloidal silver has no known benefit.

It is unnecessary to take it for any reason.

Good question! Never thought about it that way! No, you don't need to add extra to your diet, and it's also OK to eat the amount you usually do.
