I learned at the beginning that salt should NEVER be used as a starter, since it would produce silver chloride, which is toxic, and logically I never used it since then. But, what about silver chloride produced when CS contacts hydrochloric acid in the stomach? And silver citrate? And silver ascorbate? etc., etc.?

## Silver chloride is more inert than toxic. It's not very soluble. It does kill germs, just not nearly as well. The problem with Silver Citrate and other ionic compounds of silver isn't so much a matter of toxicity or ineffectiveness as it is possible concentrations. In those cases it becomes quite possible to over indulge without knowing it and turn blue.
 Mislabeling and ignorance for whatever reason can be a "problem".
Silver Nitrate is corrosive and requires great care to use properly. It can also have an extremely high silver content without your knowledge. What ions dissociate in the bodys' chemical soup and become whatever other compound and where to do what, is just about anyones guess.


Should CS be used together with foods or driks for better absortion?

A shor time ago many of you were recommending to use it with Gatorade. What about yellow Nº 5, Red Nº 40, Blue, 2.9 ph (to help `maintain`enamel in teeth...?), atificial flavour, and all the goodies that come with it? Are silver malate, silver glutamate, or whatever, etc., a good form of conversion for our high quality CS we are trying to make? Many other better `Sports Drinks`can be prepared at home, very simply, if it were convenient for faster absorption.

## Forming Silver Chloride with the presence of salt [in Gatoraid] isn't an immediate reaction. It takes some amount of time. Mix and use IMMEDIATELY.

How silver ions react with stomach acid is one question. How silver hydroxide and silver oxides react is another. If your EIS is over a couple of days old, it's not likely there are many, if any "silver ions" floating about all on their own. Stomach acids may well release silver ions from hydroxides and oxides to be exchanged with something else, say, in a metallo transport protein. There may be many steps in several reaction chains.

Ion exchange is a complicated science onto itself with whole industrial research departments working on it to come up with products that do specific exchanges. The body does quite well with sorting things out and knowing what it's doing doesn't change what that is.
 So, if something works without significant negative side effects, no worries.

In other words, I am confused, but ingesting my CS every few minutes a little sip at the time.

(trying to learn more from you members every day..!)

Thank you.
