Thanks, Sol -- that is precisely the kind of useful info I like. "By the tablespoon" may be unuseful, to say the least! Judy Down Maine
>From Sol This is sort of why I believe dosing recommendations vary so much. It is just too individual. I have ingested orally from an ounce or two to a quart of CS never gradually building up to the quart from the previous day's ounce.I have never experienced a herx reaction, not minutes nor hours after drinking the CS. Whether I chugged down a pint or more at once or drank a quart over a whole day. Never had even a hint of herx. And y et I "must" be full of pathogens, parasites, mycoplasmas or whatever the heck, as I have an incredible number of problems. My experience is that for most things I am trying to accomplish with oral CS, sipping it a little at a time over the day works more effectively than chugging a lot all at once and then waiting hours for the next dose. The exception is for stomach upsets/diarrhea, in which case drinking a glassful at once works much better than small doses over hours. For preventing colds and flu, misting eyes and hands several times a day and doing so religiously after being in any public place is the only thing that works----for me. As Ode repeatedly has said here, the only dosing that makes any sense is to dose for effect. And that is so highly variable and individual that meaningful guidelines just can't be made. The same goes for ppm, imho. Some people here report much better results with very small quantities of 20 ppm, while others get the same results from larger quantities of 5 ppm. I have personally experienced both of those at different times for different condtitions I was trying to treat. I believe there are no meaningful rules except these: ---use only truly pure CS that is only pure distilled water and .999 or .9999 silver ---start slowly while you watch to see how CS affects YOU (or your child, your pet) ---experiment to see what ppm and dosing works best for YOU (or your child, your pet) for the condition, problem, infection, or disease you are trying to treat After those, one can experiment with DMSO, peroxide, gatorade or whatever, high and low ppms, but for me those are the basic and only rules that make any kind of sense, given individual disease conditions, size, metabolism, and all the other possible variables. I don't know why people insist on black/white, 1 teaspoon, 3 times a day, or 2 quarts a day, or other such "rules". Some holdover from hearing MDs pronounce "take two of these 3 times a day" and come back in two weeks? And finally one rule over all rules: "nothing works for everybody, everything works for somebody" sol Marshall Dudley wrote: >Is the time frame right on this? I have always assumed that a herx would show up much faster than a few hours, something more on the order of a few minutes to maybe 10 or 15 minutes. Anyone have experience with herx that can give some insight on this. I always recommend an interval of about 30 minutes, not a few hours. If that is too fast I need to know. > > > > -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
