"He ingested approximately 16 ounces (~ 450 ml) of 450 ppm colloidal
silver three times a day for 10 months. He reported improvement in his
arthritis; however, he discontinued the treatment when his skin began to
turn gray."
## Do you suppose he could have survived the first day of that much silver
at 20 PPM?
Isn't that like 18 gallons of water a day?
Daily use of large quantities of silver sludge is not recommended..
The elimination rate of silver is around 94% in 48 hours.
There is a minimum threshold of silver 'retention' for producing Argyria.
I don't recall the exact figures nor am I good at math, but the consensus
is that people don't live long enough to retain enough silver at 20 PPM and
under while consuming the quantities of water that are survivable.
Then
Argyria is not a "given" if that threshold is surpassed. It's actually
quite difficult to study as it so hard to induce on purpose in animals even
when using massive injections of 1000+ PPM silver citrate and silver acetate.
One research paper I read after following links on Rosemary Jacobs
'bluelady' site indicated extreme frustration on the researchers part in
producing or finding subjects to study. He went to the silver industry
where workers are exposed to mega quantities of silver on a daily basis
expecting to find some subjects.
What he found was an incidence of Argyria at around 1 in 2,000 silver
workers..and very little absenteeism from colds and flu.
It would be interesting to see how many syphilis sufferers who used silver
arsphenamine turned blue.
Humm...really hard to find anything, but it was 70,000 cases in 2000 when
syphilis, easily curable "now", is relatively rare.
We know of "one" who used nose drops (Argyrol, a silver proteinate) for
many years who did turn blue...that being Rosemary.

"Gaul and Staud (1935) reported 70 cases of generalized argyria following
organic and colloidal silver medication, including 13 cases of generalized
"..argyria following intravenous silver arsphenamine injection therapy
Argyria developed after a total dose of 4,7 or 8 g in some patients, while
in others, argyria did not develop until after a total dose of 10, 15 or 20g."
[No mention of how many people "others" doesn't include and didn't turn
blue at any dose or just what their "colloidal silver" was. 4 grams is
like injecting an entire electrode all at once!! Ok, being very hard to
treat and no latex condoms around, maybe we can assume a number of cases
ten times that of the year 2000?.....700,000 cases? {seems a bit high, but
maybe}..... huge doses of silver in whatever form, in how many people
resulted in "70" cases of Agyria..only 13 of which were "generalized" Agryia??]
"The authors concluded that argyria may become clinically apparent after a
total accumulated i.v. (intra-veinous) Dose of approximately 8 g of silver
arsphenamine. The book entitled "Argyria. The Pharmacology of Silver"
reached the same conclusion."
All these cases appear to have been caused by the ingestion of silver
compounds or silver powder. None were caused by the usage of liquid
colloidal silver. Furthermore, the most common cause
appears to be related to treatments involving injection of silver compounds.
As an additional consideration, the EPA reports that 90 to 99% of ingested
silver is excreted through the gastro-intestinal tract within two (2) days.
