The requirement is very much higher than could possibly gained by taking normal strength CS, Roger.
To become blue you would need to ingest about 3 grams of silver per day, according to Alexander G. Schauss, Ph.D. Director, Life Sciences Division John Hopkins University. A litre of 10 ppm CS contains 10 milligrams of silver, therefore one would need to ingest 300 litres per day to reach this point. This is quite a bit higher than some of the references I have seen, but even the most conservative estimate has one drinking tens of litres per day.
