Hi James,
Good question, but it's impossible to predict. We simply don't know
how silver ions act in the body, and everyone responds differently.
I even notice differences in my own response depending on many
things, such as how much sleep I get, or the kinds of things I eat.
But based on a hypothetical situation where everything is equal, my
own humble experience suggests that holding 1 oz of 20 ppm in your
mouth for ten minutes and spitting it out, is far more effective
than drinking 8 oz of 5 or even 10 ppm cs. (Note the average human
mouth holds 1 oz, or the amount in a typical shot glass, and my ppm
figures refer to the ionic portion and omit any oxide content.)
I went through the calculations some time ago, and I believe 100%
sublingual absorption would result in 70 parts-per-billion of silver
in the blood stream in a typical male. This is extremely small
amount, but I think the reason it works is it hits the bloodstream
all at once, before the kidneys have time to start eliminating the
ions. Note it is very unlikely that 10 minute contact time would
result in 100% absorption or even close to it. So the actual amount
in the bloodstream is probably very much less.
Note I do not subscribe to the silver chloride theory, where the
ions are converted to silver chloride as soon as they encounter the
chlorine ions in the stomach or bloodstream. The body requires
minerals to be in ion form to be absorbed, and I seem to recall 30%
of the proteins in saliva are metalloproteins that allow ion
absorption. There are many different buffers in the bloodstream, and
numerous other processes that facilitate ion transfer. We would die
without them.
So if the ions were converted to silver chloride in the bloodstream,
it is highly unlikely such a small amount would have any effect on
the stronger viruses.
Also, if the silver was converted to silver chloride, probably
everyone who drinks large quantities of cs would have developed
Argyria like Stan Jones. However, to my knowledge, no one who takes
ionic silver has ever developed any form of Argyria.
Also, Roger Altman's study showed a considerable portion of the cs
he ingested was eliminated in the urine. The only way it can get
there is through the bloodstream. Since silver chloride is
practically insoluble, I believe it remains in the body and
contributes over time to developing Argyria, like what happened to
Stan Jones. Here's Roger's study:

Note most of the above is pure guessing, since I am not a biologist
and barely understand some of the terms I used. But I found high-ppm
sublingual absorption works much better for me and my friends. So
give it a try and see which way works best for you.
Best Wishes,
Mike Monett
