The presence of silver in hair is not indicative that horses are carrying
harmful silver loads. Silver deposited in the tissues have been shown to be
harmless. This is well documented in literature. You are trying to defend
against a false premise to begin with. I would think a Biochemist would know to
check the facts first. Silver appears to be unique in this. It is not the same,
for example, with many essential elements such as selenium. In those instances
hair analysis can be useful.
On the other side of the arguement, I put a lot of effort into researching what
is known regarding argryia. Unfortunately there is not enough known. The
problem is that you cannot monitor the body's functions down to sub cellular
functions as they occur. But I have not come across anything that supports the
theory of large particles becomming lodged in the tissues. Metallic silver has
been found in the tissues but researcher's best guess is that ionic forms of
silver such as silver nitrate and protein bound silver are reduced to metallic
silver while in the cell by other substsnces such as ascorbic acid. Silver
nitrate is well known for giving up metallic silver when acted on by other
substances and that is one reason to avoid it. I would also avoid MSP for the
same reason.
I also spent a lot of effort studying how silver is eliminated from the body
and that has some relevence to finding silver in hair but I think discussing ot
would more just muddy the waters and that is not what you need.
But back to my original point, I think the moderator's conclusion based on her
hair analysis work is wrong and you are off chasing a red herring.
I also agree with Marshall that the person from ABL doesn't know what he is
talking about when he equates ionic silver with large particles. That is so
bizzare that it boggles the mind. Unforfunately just the fact the he works at
ABL will give him undeserved credentials in the view of many unschooled in
silver.

Steve -- at this point, the information won't be going to the other list. The
moderator has *taken it private* to *protect me from embarrassment* (smile).
I'll honor her effort by returning the favor. What I'll do after all is said
and done, is make a post to the other list summarizing the information that ws
provided to the moderator -- and I'll try to do that without embarrassing HER.
So -- your post is just fine for the current purposes. I didn't like the
attitude of the writer either -- it's very hard to overcome that
ignorance/arrogance when you're dealing with someone who believes it.
As background information -- the moderator is a Biochemist who deals in horse
and human health issues. Her original claim was that CS is unsafe to use in
anything but moderate amounts for a short period of time. She claims that she
has had "many" clients whose horses are carrying heavy silver loads from
extended CS use. This is determined by hair analysis. My response was that
these people are making their CS incorrectly and are producing large-particle
CS
which CAN lodge in the body tissues. Then along comes this guy from ABL who
says that ionic silver IS large-particle. This is what I'm trying to respond
to.
Thanks for your help.
