Re: CSHelp me get my daughter and wife to take CS
They really prefer to be sick than put up with a little metallic taste?!?!? Personally I like the taste. One alternative is to spray it -- into their faces, noses, eyes, mouth (have them inhale it), head, back, anywhere on the body really. It will get absorbed through the skin. They can hold some in their mouths for a minute or two, and then spit it out, and quick take a drink of something sweet. I also know people who won't take it because it doesn't taste sweet. They don't like beer either, so what does that tell you? :-) Dick From: Steve G chube...@yahoo.com To: silver-list@eskimo.com Sent: Tue, January 26, 2010 7:56:12 PM Subject: CSHelp me get my daughter and wife to take CS Here's my problem.

Hahahaha -- awesome! And so true. When you are well and feel good, it is harder to put up with a bad taste for the purpose of prevention. After a few years you can forget how bad it feels to be sick.

Re: CSHelp me get my daughter and wife to take CS
Surely it would be better to add some real fruit syrup (rather than cordial) to the CS to flavour it rather than do without. Gatorade fell out of favour because of its ingredients, didn't it?

If you make your own and you have an inexpensive quantity.Put in a pan and put their feet in it. They won't taste it and it will absorb into their skin.That is how small EIS is.

Re: CSHelp me get my daughter and wife to take CS
I explained to my family that cough syrup doesn't taste very good but it will do a job. They agreed. Silver (what we call CS in our house) may taste bad but it'll do the job also and better. They agreed to keep trying it. Except for one week after Christmas we've been cold free this winter. Now if my daughters have a sore throat they will ask if they can have silver. They know the benefits.

Re: CSHelp me get my daughter and wife to take CS
Use CS as the liquid or part of the liquid (use distilled water) and mix it with powdered gatorade. Mixing it with liquid gatorade dilutes the gatorade to the extent that I also find that taste very unpleasant. But it is good mixed with gatorade powder. I think if you want the CS diluted, using distilled water tastes the best. sol At 05:56 PM 1/26/2010, you wrote: Here's my problem. My daughter has the flu and my wife is coming down with a cold.

Re: CSHelp me get my daughter and wife to take CS
I can never understand people who complain about the very slight metallic taste of CS. I'm apt to just say that it's medicine, not a refreshment , so just suck it up. Actually the one out that always worked for me for unpalatable drinks it to hold your breath (or even your nose) while chugging. If you can't smell, you can't taste.

Re: CSHelp me get my daughter and wife to take CS
Here's my problem. My daughter has the flu and my wife is coming down with a cold. Neither one will drink the CS because they have drunk it before and hate the metallic taste. I really don't notice much taste, it just seems a little flat to me, so no big deal for me. My daughter tried mixing it with Gatorade once, but was really upset with me because I 'ruined' perfectly good Gatorade and it tasted gross. Any suggestions on how to make it more palatable to finicky family members? The metallic taste comes from silver hydroxide produced when the hydroxyl ions from the cathode reach the anode and combine with the silver ions. The equation is Ag(+) + OH(-) -- AgOH Assuming a low current density, silver ions that reach the cathode will plate out instead of making AgOH. So the anode will become black from the AgOH, and the cathode will be dull gray. You can tell how the process is working by noting the color of the tissue after wiping the electrodes at the end of the brew. For a more detailed description, please see the theory page on my web site at http://www.pstca.com/silversol/theory/cstheory.htm If you stop the brew before the ions reach the anode, you won't produce AgOH, or only a very small amount. The resulting cs will have the highest ionic content that can be reached with your electrode geometry, quality of dw, and current density. This means it is the most effective you can make. It will have absolutely no taste, which is what you need to convince your family to take it. However, there is a serious problem with contamination on silver electrodes. The electrolysis process atomically cleans the electrodes. This makes them much more sensitive to any contamination in the vicinity, such as sulphur from automobile combustion and the vapor trap in the kitchen sink. Putting the generator in an air-tight plastic bag when not in use can help reduce the contamination. I put my generator in the freezer compartment of a new, unused refrigerator. The sub-zero temperatures keeps humidity frozen, which make it impossible for the tarnish action of sulphur. A second trick to slow down the ions from reaching the opposite electrodes is to wait 15 minutes or 1/2 hr after pouring the dw into the generator. This allows the turbulence to settle and the water to become still before starting the brew. The difficulty this can present is some forms of contamination will leach from the electrodes if they are sitting in the dw. This can increase the conductivity by a significant amount and affect the brewing process. Finally, when you have made the highest concentration possible, do the salt test to verify the strength of the concentration. This means to pour a small amount of cs into a shot glass and add a few crystals of canning salt. The salt will combine with the silver ions and form silver chloride. This is insoluble and makes a beautiful milky dispersion. If the dispersion is weak, it will be a pale blue. If it is dense enough that you cannot see objects behind the glass, you have a very strong solution. The fastest way to absorb the ions is through sublingual absorption. Hold a mouthful for 10 or 15 minutes, then spit it out. The amount of ions absorbed will be less than 10%. A very simple calculation shows the amount present in the blood stream is very small. For example, a typical mouthful is 50 millilitres. Since one millilitre of dw weighs 1 gram, 50 ml is 50 grams. Say the ion concentration is 20uS. This means it is 20 parts per million, or 20 ppm. This can be expressed in scientific notation as 20e-6. The amount of silver in 50 ml of 20uS cs is 50gm * 20e-6 = 1000e-6, or 1 thousand micrograms. Of this, less than 10% is absorbed, so there is less than 100 micrograms in the bloodstream, or 100e-6 gm. The typical blood quantity in a male is 5.5 litres. Assuming blood has the same density as water, this is 5,500 grams. The silver ion concentration in the blood is then 100e-6 / 5500 = 1.81818181818e-8, or less than 18 parts per billion. This is a very small amount, but it is all that is needed for the immune system to function and kill the viruses that cause colds and flu. There are significant advantages to using sublingual absorption. * very fast absorption directly into the blood stream * bypasses the liver which can filter the silver ions out * only very small volume of cs needed * saves on dw, improves life of silver electrodes * kills bacteria that cause cavities * kills bacteria that cause plaque * kills bacteria that cause gum disease * eliminates any possibility of Argyria * eliminates killing friendly bacteria in small intestine (often mistaken for herxheimer) The difficulty

Re: CSHelp me get my daughter and wife to take CS
HuH ? Tastes Bad ?? I've just phoned a friend and I got its refreshing , I love it, slightly something, bitter I think . L is a heavy smoker. Her other comment is that The process will kill any bugs in the water. Just to hammer this home my friend makes and takes 500ml per day sometimes 'brewing' for long times. Using local municipal tap water which I find tastes mouldy. I'll have a look for blue nails etc. My comment is slight sandy feel . I don't think I could distinguish EIS from fresh water in a blindfold test. I'm a non smoker, take a few sips per day maybe. I use borehole and roof water which tastes good. That indeed is curious.
