secret"
 of the Hunza health appears to be their heavily mineralized Glacial Water,
 referred to as "Glacial milk" because of its mily appearance." ibid
 
 "When analysis of Hunza water was made by reasearcher and author Dr. Partick
 Flanagan, and Romanian scientist, Dr. Henri Coanda, ti was shown to cointain
 almost every known mineral element, with an especially HIGH CONTENT OF 
SILVER IN
 COLLOIDAL FORM--in suspension, not dissolved as in most ionic forms". ibid
 
 "They never had any hardening of the arteries, kidney stones, tooth decay,
 arthritis, osteoporosis or heart disease.  ... the Hunzakuts were free of 
disease
 and neurosis." (Secrets of the Soil by Peter Tompkins and Christopher Bird).
 
 So we have a society that drank large amounts of silver in colloidal form all
 their life, and what was the result.  They are considered the healthiest 
people on
 earth.
 
 I do believe that this shows that long term use of CS is not a problem.

Marshall: Well, that hardly constitutes proof considering all of the 
confounding variables within their lifestyle. Hey, look, if I didn't FEEL 
that there was an acceptable risk that CS intake is harmless, I would never 
have undertaken my 5 month ingestion/retention study. But to extrapolate our 
collective exposure to CS out to 15, 30 or more years, is not based on 
science, but hope. I, for one, HOPE you're right, but until I see real data, 
the question remains unanswered. Roger
