I would not recommend picking any up at a health food store. Almost all of what they call CS at health food stores is really MSP, and very very expensive. If you need a good source for mail order of optimum ppm CS let me know and I will email you privately. Optimum ppm is between 3 and 20. > > I don't know much about it so was wondering how large a dosage a cat > should receive just as a precautionary treatment.

But how much to add would depend on the initial ppm of the CS. If you are using 5 ppm, then adding 10% or so CS would I belive be about right. If you give it straight continuously there might be some negative impact on the intestinal flora. > > I was looking into the generators but figure before I spend my money I > should try it and see if I see any improvement in any of my animals. Not a bad idea.

For the eyes, you may want to put a few drops directly in the eyes. For ringworm, apply directly topically as well as give it to them in their water. I don't have any idea on the pancreatic insufficiency. > > If I was treating a skin condition such as ringworm would colloidal > silver be used in/as drinking water or would it actually be applied to > the skin? Both recommended, but topically for sure. Marshall -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
