Can someone tell me if there are advantages in ionic silver over
particle silver. I have read that particle is better. I have also
read that particle is much harder to make than ionic.

Jessie,
The SOTA machine, like most other home machines, makes about
80% ionic and 20% particulate silver. Of course that assumes you
use nothing else but distilled water and .999 (or better) fine
silver wire. Having a stirrer makes the solution even better with
a higher ionic content. The chances of getting argyria from this
solution are about nil.... you'd have to drink gallons daily for
many months for that to occur. Never add salt or anything else to
the solution when you make it as you don't want silver chloride or
any other silver salt to form. Argyria is usually caused by
impurities in the silver making compounds that are toxic to the
body or whose molecules are too large to be discharged and lodge in
the skin as a result.
