Argyria

Question: What is the truth about the skin condition argyria? The scare story about turning the skin blue or gray refers to a rare conditon called ARGYRIA. It can't happen with CS made by electrolysis because you just have plain silver atoms, not molecules. There is another type of product called "colloidal silver' that contains silver bound to a protein and is correctly called Colloidal Silver Protein (CSP). THAT type of 'colloidal silver' could 'possibly' produce Argyria, but you would have to take a lot of it for many years and even then, very few people get it anyway. It's really quite rare. There has been a huge PROPAGANDA and DISINFORMATION campaign going on since the mid 1990's -orchestrted by the drug companies and their stooges- to scare people away from using CS by using the exaggerated and misdirected Argyria scare story. There is nothing toxic about CS. A test was conducted some years ago (reported in our book, Silver, The Forgotten Antibiotic), in which lab mice were given only plain water to such an extent that they eventually died from excessive water loading. The mice who were given only colloidal silver, lasted an average of 17 days longer when forced fee the same amount of CS. In other words, that test proved that CS is less toxic THAN PLAIN WATER.

Answer: Scare Tactics. If there was any truth, the Media would be all over it

Question: Which one of these topics would be best for an organic chemistry paper? Silver and Argyria OR the molecular basis for drug action of antibiotics, pain drugs, and antiviral drugs??

Answer: I think the second one.

Question: Do you know the dangers of colloidal silver ? The problems associated with colloidal silver are well documented. Did you know that ? Aren't the people who sell it crazy ? http://dermatology.cdlib.org/111/case_re…

Answer: Perhaps they are not "crazy", but they could be either deluded or frauds. If you ask them for independent, randomized, double blinded controlled clinical studies, that show efficacy, safety, risks and interactions, they can't produce anything. Instead they go off on a Big Pharma conspiracy rant. And that should always raise red flags.

Question: aquify multipurpose solution? the aquify solutions comes with a special case embedded with silver ions claiming it kills bacteria better than other cases. Is silver safe for your eyes? can the silver ions be absorbed into your bloodstream after you use the case? theres a few people who got a rare disease called argyria from silver===>Argyria is a condition caused by the ingestion of elemental silver, silver dust or silver compounds. The most dramatic symptom of argyria is that the skin becomes blue or bluish-grey colored. Argyria may be found as generalized argyria or local argyria. Argyrosis is the corresponding condition related to the eye. The condition is believed to be permanent, but laser therapy may be helpful.....is the lens case safe??????????????

Answer: So far there are no complain about that silver ions lens cases. It claims to be good but personally it has no differences as compared to other cases.

Question: Can anyone summarize this please ..? Argyria is a condition caused by the ingestion of elemental silver, silver dust, or silver compounds. It may just be a sentence, but could you please summarize it to like simpler words. Please and thank you. :)

Answer: Argyria is a condition that can be caused by elemental silver, silver dust, or silvermcompounds. its not that much shorter but sounds better k

Question: Colloidal Silver ?? Is it really safe?? Can a person get argyria from topical use? The sites I have found make it seem a little scary.

Answer: The only way you can get argyria is to ingest (drink) excess amounts of CS. I have been taking around a teaspoon a day for over a year with no ill effects. Topically, it's completely harmless.
