Thanks for all the replies. When I made my first drinkable batch of EIS, I estimate it was about 15ppm. All I did was swish it around in the mouth and spit it out. About 6-7 seconds later, there was a warm fuzzy feeling in my head just where I get the headaches. It was kind of soothing too.
Then I had a herx and was ill for a couple of days. This (I think anyway) is living proof that it does indeed pass the BBB *and* finds it's way to the damaged tissue. Perhaps I should dilute it or something, but the die-off was quite remarkable considering I spat most of it out. I am also on ABX and I haven't tried any more silver since. The thing I worry about is not the silver doing damage but the neuro toxins produced on the die-off doing the damage. Slow recovery is better than a fast one if you are going to cause a large die-off and maybe brain damage due to large neuro toxins produced by the die-off of the bacteria. Just my opinion.. Maybe when my body is less toxic I will try the silver again, but as I said the die-off was remarkable. Maybe the silver can reach the other parts the ABX can't.

I have no way of knowing whether these horses have access to citric acid, or whether there is a difference between horses and people, but the brains of these horses are being HELPED -- not hurt.
