Re: colloidal silver dilemma...
Almost all the blue skin is caused by adding salt or using tap water to make the ionic silver. Using a machine without a current limiter and running the machine for way too long to make the ppm way too high. Also extremely high PPM products with protein stabilizers. You also should make sure you get some selenium when using large amounts.
Every time someone manages to dye their skin blue the media uses them as a poster child to scare people away from a safe superior antibiotic. They never go into the details of what went wrong.
Here's is the latest one. Read what he did wrong.
He started making
Colloidal Silver for his friend and himself. He used distilled water and added
Sea Salt to increase the conductivity of the water. The silver solution had a cloudy appearance as silver chloride is produced when salt is added. He estimated he was making
Colloidal Silver in the range of 10 PPM.
Paul brewed two batches a day. In the morning, he and his friend each drank about a 10-ounce (325 ml) tumbler full and they repeated the process in the evening. Paul estimates that he continued to drink two tumblers a day (about 20
ounces or 750 ml) for three years or more.
Later Paul bought a unit from a second manufacturer to make his silver solution. He switched to adding baking soda to the distilled water to increase conductivity. This produces a solution with a golden color.
Paul has never used a SOTA unit or any other constant current unit. During one of his television interviews, a SOTA unit was on display. That unit belongs to his fiancée.
