She is saying that the water will cause the saline wetting of the lung tissue to be diluted, thus causing the cells to absorb more water and possibly cause some type of problem. This is pure nonsense. The amount of water in the colloidal spray is so slight that it is virtually invisible. It evaporates spontaneously in less than a second. If this were a problem then taking a walk in a heavy fog would be deadly, since the amount of water breathed into the lungs would be many times that from the nebulizer, and out species would have died out long ago. Heck people can "drown" and be revived after getting the water out of the lungs and be fine. Marshall -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
