Argyria (blue skin) only happens with people who daily drink large amounts of silver salts/compounds or heavily overbrewed (coffee-colored) CS for years. It is NOT something that can accidentally happen.
- How often you make CS
- How long you brew your batches
- What kind of water you use
Answer: Yes, and cook with it as well. Putting it in the fridge isn’t necessary, as CS doesn’t spoil. You can boil it, freeze it, it doesn’t hurt anything.
Answer: No. CS seems to absorb into the bloodstream before reaching that far. The bulk of your good bacteria live in the small intestine, and reproduce extremely quickly so even if there is some loss of bacteria they are replaced in no time.
Answer: No. The TDS meter is up to 200% inaccurate, as is the light. The instrument that can actually measure PPM in CS costs $5,000 or more.
Answer: Yes. Brew in glass or plastic.
Answer: It’s part of the brewing process; it’s just harmless silver oxide, which can be wiped off (though not necessary) as it will just dissolve into the next batch.
Answer: No. You would just be wasting silver that would have dissolved into your next batch, shortening the life span of your wires.
Answer: Our first choice is tinted/clear plastic soda pop bottles, or tinted/clear fruit juice bottles. If storing in a clear container keep it in the cupboard away from exposure to direct sunlight. Tinted glass can also be used, but silver eventually sticks to the glass so we recommend the plastic bottles already mentioned.
Answer: NO. Silver is not a heavy metal, it’s a noble one. It is also all gone from you body within 24 hours.
Answer: Only if it produces a cool mist, no steam device, as silver doesn’t evaporate, only the water.
Answer: Yes. You can take it with anything except probiotics or fermented foods as it will kill the bacteria it comes into contact with. Just leave an hour between CS and probiotics.
Answer: Yes, it does not interact with any regular meds, except that it increases the effectiveness of antibiotics.
Answer: I usually caution against using CS (an immune system booster) with immune suppressing drugs.
Answer: No. Use clear 10-30 ppm CS straight in any cool misting device.
Answer: Statistically, one in every 350,000 people are allergic to the mineral silver. They usually know because they cannot wear silver jewelry.
