No, William, compounds are not created by putting two or more minerals together in the same container. Otherwise all liquid mineral supplements would be dangerous, because we could not know what "compounds" might have formed from all those minerals mixed together in the supplement. The dynamic that forms compounds is the electrolytic process that is the foundation of how we make CS. We avoid using mineralized water to make CS because we FEAR the possibility that such compounds may be created. This fear is, in my opinion, almost paranoid in intensity. If the presence of a few minerals in the distilled water that most of us use (a few minerals that might have gotten in by not thoroughly rinsing the jars we make CS in), was even 1/100th as dangerous or risky as people fear, then it would be absolute catastrophe to use tap or river water, and we would have heard of numerous reports of the consequences of it. In fact, folks all over the world use water we wouldn't even drink to make CS. Where are the blue people? Not only can the FDA not produce any reports in the US of anyone having any toxic or agyrious consequences from any CS that is not made to be a compound (silver nitrate, etc.), they don't even know of anyone in the WORLD who has done so (Yes, I'm sure they will soon be using Stan Jones as ammunition). Everyone on this List has heard of how folks used to put a silver dollar in a bottle of milk to retard spoilage. What kind of compounds would you be afraid of happening there? But no one turned blue of had any liver damage that I ever heard of. I don't want to turn into some kind of Champion of The Safety of Silver, but I am watching the level of fear on this List of the possibility of making a mistake when making CS continue to grow and grow. People talk about making a "bad" batch of CS, which I assume means CS that is cloudy or has color. I have never thrown away a batch yet. Before I started using a timer to shut off my batches, I would occasionally over-cook one, 'till it was coffee-colored. I would drink it anyway. Stan Jones did it everyday, and it still took over two years before his supposed argyria occured. To follow this over-cautious mentality that I am seeing nowadays, it would be dangerous to even take CS after meals, because it might form a compound with the minerals in your food! After nearly five years of freely guzzling CS (with the only result of almost no sickness in my family), I have seen, heard or read nothing that shakes my confidence in the absolute safety of CS/EIS.
