Rainie,

Others can provide a better explanation, but from my understanding of all this, 
silver is good for you because it kills bacteria, viruses, fungi, spirochetes 
(as in lyme), all single celled parasitic organisms that want to live in you.  
At the same time it does not harm higher level organisms at all, including you. 
 It does not contribute to metal toxicity when you take it either in small 
doses long term, or in larger doses short term, because your body eliminates it 
over a period of a few hours or a few days.  Further, if you do get an overload 
that your body can't handle, the worst result seems to be argyria, which is an 
otherwise harmless cosmetic condition experienced by very few people who take 
silver regularly.

Subject: CS>Metal Toxicity & CS

Since I have had chronic Lyme Disease, I read quite a bit about metal 
poisoning, ie mercury in fish, aluminum from pans, etc.  So my question is: 
with this in mind, how is CS good for you and how does it NOT contribute to 
metal toxicity?

By the way, if any of you have answered a previous question and I've not 
responded, I apologize.  I am still new to the list, and at times quite 
overwheilmed by the all the posts that appear.  Two days away from the computer 
and I fall quite behind.  Also, my illness affects the length of my 
productivity per day.

Peace & Abundant Health!
