Hi Jim:

They don't. It's the process that creates a product ( when making CS with any water that is not pure ) that is the problem. The end result of using salt in production is a product that is filled with silver debris; flakes, particles too large to be held in suspension, etc.; hardly an oligodynamic product.

Silver nitrate and citrate are a different story. As an example, I recently received an email from someone who was using silver nitrate; a few drops in the nasal passageways for less than a few months. She developed a patch of argyria on the cheek. I've poured gallons of IES through the nasal passageways with no such risk.

Based on quite a few similiar reports, it's obvious to me that the body handles silver nitrate and silver citrate differently. The body seems to immediately try to purge these substances by depositing them into tissue.

I've long claimed ( and come under quite a bit of fire ) that the body handles EIS differently than silver compounds. It's only been in the last year that evidence is beginning to present itself to justify my stance. However, my evidence comes from talking with scientists doing work on human genetics that won't even begin to become mainstream knowledge for another ten years.

I believe, still, that the body treats oligodynamic EIS like water, under most circumstances. After all, our EIS is a more pure source of water than tap water and many spring waters. In order to induce a toxic response to EIS, I had to utilize massive amounts of EIS taken orally AND through a nebulizer all day, for many days. Even then, symptoms subsided very rapidly after cessation.

The toxic response of the body's immune system is a learned condition, with a host of variables that dictate how a body handles substances that the body considers toxic. Once a toxic response iniated by the body has had a successful outcome, it is utilized more by the body in similiar circumstances. The oxidative gene cycle is very much a part of this system. The immune system, as time progresses, can become "lazy"; it's a simple matter of conservation of energy.

Now, if the body has learned a toxic response from silver, then a sensitivity will exist; a type of allergy, from mild to severe. The single way to know for sure if this exists is to have a Melisa test done.

This applies to allergic responses as well, which is why, as the body becomes more sluggish, food allergies and environmental toxic responses escalate; sensitivities to mold, foods, smells... and finally to electromagnetic energy.

I've never heard of anybody who does normal full cleanses every having any such sensitivities ( cleansing as a lifestyle and not as a treatment for existing toxicity )... Their metabolisms can handle foods, molds, etc.; the immune system has learned good habits, and it takes more to induce reactions, as the body is able to cleanse itself.

The big problem is that many people turn to products such as silver nitrate because they are ill; they are already in trouble with their immune system and metabolism, and silver nitrate is the last thing you want the body trying to handle.


Of course, this view is only my view.

Kind Regards,

Jason

Why do the silver ions in a dissolved salt have the possibility of causing Argyria and the free ions in a mixture of colloidal and ionic silver not do that?
