Extra citric acid doesn't hurt. In fact it is necessary if you are going to make high ppm silver citrate. - Steve N

So a dot of citric acid would do it. One pin head's worth. Do you think all the silver ions would become silver citrate? Would they all find the citric acid and mate with it. I think the Gatorade formula was more Gatorade than colloidal silver. Mix and drink. Here Marshall says it is 2 to 1 Gatorade to CS This is much more citric acid than what you say...Citric acid overkill maybe garrick On Wed, May 26, 2010 at 9:26 PM, Norton, Steve <stephen.nor...@ngc.com> wrote: The molecular weight of silver is 107.9. The molecular weight of citric acid is 192.1. Silver citrate is basically one molecule of citric acid bonded to three silver ions and has a molecular weight of 512.7. So, if you have 10 ppm ionic silver you would need an amount of citric acid equal to 40 ppm in the same volume of solution. In other words, an amount smaller than you can measure for all practical purposes. - Steve N From: Garrick [mailto:zzen...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 26, 2010 4:27 PM To: silver-list@eskimo.com Subject: Re: CS>Electrolyte ratios and amounts It would be great if Marshall or anyone could give us a calculation....How much citric acid to add to say 4oz of 10uS colloidal silver. Obviously citric acid is very common. I have some in my refrigerator. Citric acid is cheap. I got mine on ebay. One test would be when you are sick with a cold or flu. Try the citric/CS and see what it does garrick On Wed, May 26, 2010 at 6:29 PM, Norton, Steve <stephen.nor...@ngc.com> wrote: Marshall's most current theory: http://www.mail-archive.com/silver-list@eskimo.com/msg129323.html "Doing some further analysis of the ingredients in gatorade I have discovered another mechanism, one which is likely the primary one for this increased absorption. I just became aware that the citrate ion ( gateraid contains citric acid ) will replace the chloride ion in metallic salts. This means that when you mix CS with gaterade the silver ions do not combine with the chloride ions, but the citrate ions in the citric acid. Thus when you drink it, no low solubility silver chloride ions are formed, and they do not form in the stomach either . The silver citrate then is free to quickly move into the blood stream."
