This is just my opinion but if you use some logic in reading it and looking at the site, you will learn some interesting things. First she got the blue skin for a silver nose drop in the 1950's, if you check what the FDA has to say about colloidal silver they say that the CS which is on the market now is not the same as any made before the 1930's, so logically this makes me think what she took was not CS as we know it. If you look real close to her story she says she didn't know what kind of silver she took and never found out. Also, if you note most of what she says about silver causing blue skin and about it not being of use for anything in the body comes from the medical texts. According to the medical texts, herbs and foods don't help with any diseases either, but I KNOW better than that. Last but certainly not least, the ONLY link from this site is QuackWatch. How interesting! I am not going to say that CS would not cause blue skin, but from what I have seen so far, I don't think that website is anything more than propaganda. Just use your head when taking CS and realize there might be a risk in taking it. But there may be a greater risk by not taking it, so make up your own mind, that is YOUR right. Jim Einert, N.D.
