That is not the case at all. If it is food coloring without any CS then that would be the big discredit risk. Pure CS is not dark orange, at any ppm. One can get a light orange, but if they do, that means that the particles are larger than most of us consider optimum. The color (if any) of CS disappears if you put it on a towel and let it dry. CS will always dry colorless or black. If you put it on a towel and it dries orange it has to have food coloring or some other pigment in it. If there is any chance that these do not contain what they claim, then the people on this list are correct in cautioning the use of the product. After all a person's life or health may be in danger. And worse of all, if we say that it is good stuff, and it is nothing more than food coloring, then when people try it and it does nothing we have lost possibly the only oportunity to convince the person that CS does really work. I believe these preparations contain fairly large silver particles, kept in suspension by some type of protein, possibly gelatin, with additional coloring added. If anyone is able to run any tests to disprove this, I would be happy to admit I am wrong. Most of these warnings are coming from people who make and use their own CS.
