Hope you don't mind two subsequent salt questions.
1. Why does not the salt
 in our bodies do something similar?
It does. Read http://silver-lightning.com/theory.html for complete explaination.
2. It takes a long time to start a
 batch of cs in distilled water, whereas
one tiny crystal of salt speed  the
 process dramatically. How bad is one
tiny crystal?
It will add significant silver chloride, reducing the amount of colloidal silver produced and produce more silver compounds. Use a little of the previous batch to seed the next batch instead.

Marshall, what is the salt test?  Faith g.
Table salt will react with ionic silver and silver compounds producing

 silver chloride that precipitates out as a white powder.  Thus adding a
pinch of salt to water that has any ionic silver in it will cause the water to become cloudy, similar to a glass of water with a small amount
of
 milk added.

The easiest way to check for ionic silver
is the
 salt test. Fast and
cheap.
