Hi James,
I agree that it's probably not necessary to get 3 PPM or even 1 PPM in my
body as a whole. It was just an abstract thought since it seems that some
infections aren't touched by CS. But, if I have 32.7 litres of water total
in my body, and to get a 1 PPM solution (just hypothetical and not taking
into account that silver gets deposited in tissues?) I would need to take
32.7 milligrams of silver. From what I've read toxicity isn't reached until
one gets into the grams of silver rather than milligrams. One litre of 10
PPM contains 10 milligrams of silver, doesn't it? This type of dosing
surely wouldn't be warranted on a daily basis, but what about in the
short-term for stubborn cases of infection?

Hello Elle,
You do not need to reach 3 PPM in your body for Ag Sol to be effective.
For a 150 Lb average person, the toxic dose of Ag Sol, of good quality and
not contaminated with impurities, for 10 PPM (Mg/L) is approximately one
standard size bath tub full per 24 hours. Or, about 3.8 Milligrams per day
total silver.
Consuming 98.1 Milligrams of silver per day will be very toxic.
Most silver is absorbed high in the digestive tract. I have heard some
people try to carry it further in with clay or with Psyllium (Spelling?).
Silver is a potent germicide. Some bacteria release toxins when they die
and the cell wall opens. If you take enough silver to kill lots of that
type of bacteria all at once, you can become very ill or die. Symptoms are
frequently headache and fever, possibly chills. That effect is called the
Jarish-Herxheimer (sp?) reaction, named after the Docs who first noted it.
For that reason, it is considered by many to be good practice to initially
take small amounts of silver, say 2 or three tablespoons full for a day or
so and observe the effect. If there is no sudden worsening of condition,
it
is difficult to drink enough 10 PPM Ag Sol to get a toxic dose.
