Wow. A couple of years ago I was making my own colloidal silver and using it every day. Glad I quit. That poor guy.

Hey Dnakr- I think that happened to him because he used it directly on his skin, but I've also read of that happeneing to people who took it internally too I think, but regardless, I wouldn't take hte chance of that happening as it is irreversible, so I quit using hte stuff

Thanks for the concerns guys, BUT:

First of all, the condition is called Argyria.

Second of all Karason, in my opinion is grossly misusing the product. I have been using silver for years and all that's blue is my eyes and sometimes my fingernails when I can't breathe (cyanotic).

Out of the millions of people using it show me another case.

Even though you use the right process, but not quite the right ingredients if you are making it at home, ie table salt instead of sea salt or tap water instead of distilled water, you could end up with silver salts instead of colloidal silver which is another possible problem of his.

Not to mention the guy was drinking like 8oz 3 times a day or more, saturating his skin in it on a regular basis, for YEARS. With those doses, it's a wonder his clothes didn't turn blue.

This man has single handedly done more damage to colloidal silver than it has done to his skin, which I might add the condition he started taking it for is gone.

I am taking 2oz 3 times a day and probably for not more than a couple of more days. This is also considered massive doses. A normal dose is about 1 tblsp 1 time a day for a week or 2.

We told the vet we had better results with silver on our dogs ear infections than with the antibiotics they prescribed. The vet responded with, well everybody pretty much knows that nothing [bacteria, etc.] can survive in the presents of silver.

My dogs are still Great Danes and not Blue Healers as proven in my photo album if anybody wants to see them.

Just received a bottle of Regular Tobacco High VG from Mac. Really too soon to tell, but from all initial indications, I may never use PG again.

The VG is very smooth and does not seem to initiate breathing problems, but again, I've only had it for a couple of hours. Let's see what happens by the end of the day tomorrow.

Exclamation Bronchitis vs Advair

Could not take it anymore! Went to Dr. yesterday, not sure what he said, seems impossible to find a Dr. in America that speaks clear English anymore. But he did prescribe Advair 500/50 and 7 500mg Levaquin (scorched earth version of antibiotic) caplets 1 a day for bronchitis. I knew that because it was printed on the prescriptions.
