I would add that the Jacobs site has some very useful information. For example, she reveals that those little, silvery sugar beads used as cake decorations are coated with -- get this -- real silver. I had not known. Could you get argyria from these things? Perhaps so. Moreover, her site documented peer-reviewed journal articles about argyria produced in Japan by a silver-coated breath/stomach mint called Jin Tan. I happened to like the stuff, but swore off after learning about the argyria cases from the RJ site.

In a nutshell, Rosemary Jacob's site may have done me a world of good, and, moreover, might have prevented my own future, inaccurate attribution of Jin Tan produced argyria to the SG6 machine I currently use to make EIS. Thumbs up to Rosemary Jacobs for that.

Credit where credit is due; there is some useful data on her site, and I think those who use this list really should have a look at the material. I have corresponded with RJ, and my impression is that she is quite earnest and believes she is doing something useful. That said, I think her mind is closed about EIS, and she says she is awaiting peer-reviewed data before attempting to clear up her argyria with methods mentioned on our list.

Hi Mike,

I would have to agree with you. Oh, this is now my "opinion" hahaha.
When one decides to confront a person or persons about certain beliefs
one must be careful as to not offend or one could be faced with being
violently opposed. In most cases you will be. I use the term "violently" loosely. From what I gather, I sense this person chooses to be in denial
and therefore best left as such.

There is a saying: "best let sleeping dogs lie." There is no need to
rustle the hornets nest. I think we just save ourselves a ton of grief
by realizing some people are better left alone.

Thanks. Ernie

To Tony, William, folks,

I think it is not useful to propose some complicated explanation for
Rosemary Jacobs' situation when the published account is reasonable
enough. I'm inclined to believe her story as it is told, and any
supposed inconsistencies are really not critical, in my opinion.
