           Below is a reference to argyria caused by colloidal silver.
In my not-so-humble opinion, colloidal silver is one of the worst hoaxes to be perpetrated against us in the name of natural health supplementation. It is not a panacea, it is a POISON.

#########
A poison, even though it has been determined by the EPA that silver by itself is essentially non toxic to mammals. It took something like 9 grams injected into dogs to kill them? That's enough to make a good sized bullet and shoot them. [Check me on the figure..it's been a while]
#############

Dr. Andrew Weil, one of the foremost natural health oriented ###spin## doctors in the world, says it quite eloquently: ## in doublespeak## "This is nonsense: the human body doesn’t need silver, and no immune system disorders are related to a deficiency of it."
################ A] The action of CS is not related to or dependant on the immune system..so..of course, immune system disorders are not related. Humm... does that mean that silver cannot be considered a supplement? Maybe it should be considered as a 'nothing' and be labeled and regulated as such. We all know that nothing works, right? ["Contains 10 PPM silver in water...does what it does...you figure it out"] B] There is no known biological niche for silver in mammals, so CS will not be assimilated into a cell structure unless it is bonded to something that does have a niche. [Like a protein?] If it is not assimilated, it will just pass on through and be eliminated. "Establishment" research shows a 94% elimination rate in 24 hours of oral doses in monkeys...98-99% in mice in 24 hours for mice. [US EPA studies 1985] ..the only question is, How long does it take to eliminate the remainder? {Use some common sense and take a break now and then}

Inhaled doses of silver particles by dogs...finely ground dust.. were eliminated at 90% in 30 days. [Phalen and Morrow 1973]

But the Canadian version of the EPA has stated that silver is "1000 times more toxic to microbes than it is to mammals" [industrial water waste studies] So, what is that silver, that has no biological niche and that's 'just passing through' doing that's NOT related to the immune system?

"You’re supposed to feel better, age more slowly and heal faster. If all this sounds too good to be true, I can assure you it is."

########## Try CS on one wound and not on another right next to it... you'll absolutely see about healing [AMAZINGLY] faster.
I'm not old enough to age more slowly..so I dunno.
I'm 50 yrs old and people say I look 35 if I shave off my white beard. So what? Just what does "younger" look like?
 Feel better now?
 ..all too subjective [exept for the healing part]  to quantify...



Regarding the carcinogenic (and other toxic) properties of silver: the 1979 Registry of Toxic Effects lists 5 separate studies relating silver to cancer in animals and skin toxicity for humans.

######################[The above statement doesn't relate the conclusions of the mentioned studies. * Studies referred to from Rosemarys links state that multiple massive injections sometimes produced benign tumors only at the injection site and there was no indication that silver caused cancer]


Here is the specific reference on argyria from colloidal silver:
Cutis 2000 Nov;66(5):373-4 Abstract quote
The onset of argyria following the use of dietary supplements containing colloidal silver protein is presented. The patient was using a silver-containing product for cold and allergy prophylaxis.

####   I assume this would be Rosemary the blue?
"The" patient?
 Only ONE?
 Now there's the study of all studies!!!
One person holds a lightning rod in an open field and gets zapped, therefore, lightning storms are 100% fatal.

We review the past and present medicinal roles of silver and include a differential diagnosis for argyria. The hyperpigmentation of argyria is usually permanent, and it follows a sun-exposed distribution.

########### What is a differential diagnosis? According to studies from Rosemarys links, the researchers were extremely frustrated when trying to find [anongst silver miners and other silver involved workers] or produce cases of argryia no matter how drastic their experiments.
 No mention of chelation therepy or selenium.

This case report highlights the potential for toxicity following the use of dietary supplements and demonstrates the importance of physician inquiry regarding alternative medicines.

######## Too generic a statement to be meaningful. "What" supplement? How much? Try eating a bushel of columbine root [digitalis]
 If you survive, let me know.

Finally, we examine the limited role of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in regulating alternative medicines marketed as dietary supplements.

### "limited" Maybe the FDA does have some sense...and words things politically to avoid building a jail cell and calling everything outside of it a prison. Consider the position they hold between the "people" [who tend to do whatever they want regardless of laws] and their "benefactors" [big drug companies who do all their own testing..in their own self interest]

Think, "Well, we don't really know and don't have the funding or mandate to find out..and we DO know, but can't admit to the public, that the Pharms have screwed us over many times...... so, we'll make loopholes and deny that we did" Everyones asses are covered and the system works exactly as badly as it is supposed to. [vs as well as intended..a LOT harder considering it was set up wrong to start with and it's easier to move planets than it is to change a political structure]
 [Doublespeak can work which ever way you work it]

Imagine that suddenly the FDA had to do thier own expensive triple blind studies. [and YOU ..everyone...had to pay for ALL of it instead of just drug users...merely supplemented by U the taxpayer] A big chunk of the pharm industry would lose their jobs and have to work for the Gummint at less pay.

A] "The people" want a smaller Gummint.
B] "The people" don't want to lose jobs.

 catch 22

 Change the system?  Political suicide.
Solution? Make it not work as intended with supplemental loopholes and maintain some illusion of control. If YOU get YOURSELF in trouble, they get to say "I tole U so" without actually having to have said anything.

Result? People do whatever they want to and worry a lot if they do it too loudly. [only the lawn that grows too tall gets mowed, but everyone likes grass ... as long as it stays out of the garden] The FDA giant is saying "Don't wake me up...PLEASE!" [or, We only respond to the bigger stinks that might come to look like our farts...and we do that by holding YOUR nose.]

shhhh...we have a not so secret.   ;-)

 PS "common useage" means universally ignored.
