It depends on how much you ingest orally, how good the circulation is to the area of infection and how much is taken up elsewhere. Some areas of the body have less circulation than others. Some areas may take it up readily and remove more from the circulation than others.
With areas such as the sinuses, lungs, bladder, uterus - that we can reach externally with nebulizers, lavages, infusions and irrigations - you can deliver much higher concentrations directly. And you can add transport facilitators like DMSO to penetrate mucous and tissue to increase the delivery even more. Since you do not have any way of measuring how many organisms are there to calculate how much CS might be needed to kill them, the wisdom is to supply more than is needed. In other words flood the area as a form of insurance that an adequate dose has **reached the target organism(s)**. If CS does not reach the organism causing the infection there is no therapeutic effect. You can not always rely on blood circulation to get it there in sufficient quantity. Now if you were drinking GALLONS of CS a day *maybe* it would saturate every tissue, but that is very difficult to do. Even drinking half a gallon of water a day is difficult for most people to practically accomplish daily when ill. My dog had pyometra, an infection of the uterus that commonly shows up a month or so after a heat cycle, due to the cervix being more open. I had her on CS orally 5 ppm as her only water source most of the time. For sometime before I even noticed the signs of pyometra. I stepped it up to 10 ppm for a couple weeks and did not see enough improvement in her symptoms, although there was some improvement. So I bought some cattle pipettes from the vet supply and infused her uterus (learned it when doing Artificial Insemination in dogs, very easy) with 50% DMSO and 5 ppm CS. There was a noticeable change in her activity and attitude within 6 hours. I repeated this procedure with 20% DMSO and 8 ppm CS a week latter. The symptoms of pyometra cleared totally and 8 weeks latter she is having a normal heat cycle for the first time in over a year (pyometra can be slow low grade for long periods of time). After this heat cycle I will infuse her one more time for good measure, while her cervix is still open. It may even be something I will do after every heat cycle on a preventative basis if she seems to be prone. I do not wish to spay her as she is of exceptionally fine breeding quality and spaying makes many bitches get very fat, something Australian Shepherds are prone to any way. A little background on the dog -- she nursed two litters of kittens over an 18 mo period of time and actually relactated, that is started producing milk from the stimulation of nursing. I think this interfered with her hormone cycles, as her heats were undetectable or did not occur. After the second generation of kittens (the mother who had been nursed weaned her kittens to the dog) I told the dog she did not have to be so kind and could tell the now grown cats NO! She finally did start moving away from them when they came to her but is just too nurturing to actually growl or nip.
