Silver Washes Out Of The System Quickly According to the EPA IRIS Report on silver [ Integrated Risk Information
Systems, 5th page, 1st paragraph, 1987 ] it states that a number of tests
were completed to test the absorption and retention of ingested silver in a
number of animals, including primates (we are primates).
Conclusion: Numerous critics of 'using silver as a healing agent' have ignored and overlooking this most important confirmation: that silver does not not build up in the body!

For clinical case studies of argyria (such as Blumberg and Carey, 1934; East et al., 1980), it is especially difficult to determine the amount of silver that was ingested.Gaul, L.E. and A.H. Staud.
