I posted an indication of silver adoption ( a form of measurement)  in
various parts of the body today . So far it hasn't arrived back. This shows
how much is healthily adoptable, that is normal in the blood, the bones
etc.  Only when caused by invasion will these levels spill over to try to
exaggerate their function. Invasion? well that refers to an incoming virus
or bug or drug like contraceptive pills that cause high levels of copper to
leave the liver and enter the blood stream.. a supposed invasion.  Silver
is found in a colloidal state in vegetables and herbs though of course as
with all geography there are areas without much. There are also those areas
that have a damaged trace element level where insufficient is being
returned to the soil.  Regardless of that those levels I have posted are
for internal measurement.  When you speak of external this is quite
different so that the product (silvadene) you speak of could be quite
acceptable to your FDA people. I do not know this product.

P.S. as to Joel Wallach.  I think at this stage that he has made a valuable
contribution to the shortcomings of most peoples ignorance in nutrition. I
am due to meet him in a month or two and might then have more comment to
make.  So far as I am concerned minerals are the base and all the rest cant
even think of working without them.  Silver is a natural part of the body
structure that depletes as it is called upon. Some people will have a
greater need than others but it should always be introduced gradually.
