Dear Frank and Bob, I too would like to thank you for checking out the Innovative products. I think the list has already covered a lot of ground in discussion of ingesting dilute, concentrated CS, but I'm not sure I agree with Pow-Map's suggestion this product would be such a bad thing. While I take Ole Bob's point that ingesting silver compounds is not a good idea, past conversation has suggested the amount of silver protein stabilizer may be as low as 1.0% or so.
What this suggests to me is that while diluting the CS to about 10 ppm the amount of compound gets down to about 0.1 ppm. I'm imagining that there would be lots of circumstances where use of this product in this way would be beneficial, the deleterious effects rather limited. For example, CS enthusiasts, while traveling, may find it difficult to take along liters of CS or their generators. So this product may be appropriate. Please bear in mind that I'm posing all of this as a question to the knowledgeable, though my approach may be rhetorical. On the other hand recent observations indicate Mexican Microdyn may contain somewhat more than 1.0% silver compound. Others on the list have observed that the poor in Mexico may be enjoying much better health than their counterparts to the north, and I've heard nothing about turning gray or blue, south of the border. But then I'd imagine that poor Mexicans have a lot more to worry about than cosmetic effects. Please forgive the temptation to commentary.

This boggles my mind that they're mislabeling their products and I plan to do something about it. Frank, I want to sincerely thank you for testing this product for me, and for all the people on this list to see. It was so very kind of you (and informative).
