To achieve the same dose I would have to consume about 16 gram per day ; what is that; about three teaspoonfuls of silver per day, every day for a significant part of my life. But How? Solid metal chewed? silver powder ? No wonder their mascara went silver, it must have been oozing out all over the abused rats, shame on the experimenters!!!. Ridiculous experiment and assumptions. -- OK, Tony " Can Colloidal Silver Cause Kidney Problems http://risk.lsd.ornl.gov/tox/profiles/silver_f_V1.shtml ( not found ) It is very puzzling to me that we can fearlessly drink tap water with loads of chlorine, fluoride, iron, copper, and other metals and minerals we know nothing about and haven't measured, but a little silver worries us! (Eddy Kasper) Exposure of rats to 222 mg silver/kg/day in drinking water for 37 weeks resulted in growth depression and shortened lifespan. Also observed were granular silver deposits in the eyes (Matuk et al., 1981). Olcott (1948, 1950) reported enlargement of the left ventricle of the heart in rats receiving drinking water containing 635-660 mg silver/day as either silver nitrate or silver chloride for life. Histologic examination showed slight thickening of the basement membranes of kidney glomeruli in the absence of severe renal lesions. Deposition of silver granules was observed in the skin, eyes, and several internal organs. Let's see, the average CS taker may weigh 70 kg and take 60 ml of a 5 PPM home brew. That's 4 micrograms/kg/day compared to 222 mg/kg/day. So those poor little rats received about 52,000 times what a typical or extremely high CS dosage would be -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
