Cannot cause argyria2
  • Your product allegedly contains silver and water yet you tell me it cannot cause argyria. (rosemaryjacobs.com)
  • Many purveyors of colloidal silver say that ionic silver cannot cause argyria because ions are the smallest size and cannot get 'stuck' within cells. (wgpeters.com)
Discoloration5
  • The request was prompted by concerns about one employee who had been diagnosed as having argyria, a blue-grey discoloration of the skin, mucous membranes, and/or eyes resulting from prolonged silver exposure. (cdc.gov)

  • Although there were a few flare-ups of negative publicity regarding medicinal silver in the early 1900s (due to the overuse of certain types of protein-bound silver compounds causing a discoloration of the skin called argyria and due to a supply of improperly prepared and unstable silver), reputable medical journal reports demonstrated that a properly prepared colloidal dispersion of silver was completely suitable with no adverse side effects.
