Why shell out any money for anything? CS has never been shown to do

anything when taken oraly...only anecdotal evidence. It was given up as

being worthless over 70 years ago. Given that CS is alleged to kill

bacteria, and it does topically, than why wouldn't it kill " good "

bugs... " it " can't tell the difference. On that point its pretty well

accepted that there is a real problem with antibiotic resistance developing

in bacteria. Indiscriminate use of of CS will also cause bacterial

resistance to CS to develop...its inevitable.

My opinion is save your money and buy a good book you'll get alot more out

of your money that way.

Greetings,

Before shelling out the cash for a generator, I wanted to try a

commercial product to see if I would encounter any problems using

CS. Plus I'm still not comfortable with the idea of brewing my own.

I purchased a 4 oz bottle of CS made by Innovative Natural Products.

The label claims a particle size of .001 microns (doubtful) and 50

ppm. I noticed a disclaimer that stated;

" Supplement silver intake with INP's Super Strain

Acidophilus...Excessive amounts of silver taken consistently over

long periods of time may result in argyria. "

While the issue of argyria has been dicussed numerous times here, I

don't recall anyone discussing the destruction of " friendly "

intestinal bacteria as a possible danger.

Also, many people use a variety of herbs to combat chronic illnesses

such as Hep C. Certain mushrooms (reishi, shitake) are often used as

part of a natural protocal to deal with this chronic viral disease.

Mushrooms are considered a fungus, which raises another concern.

Will CS kill off this fungi too? Any comments would be welcome.

Thanks, pete
