Some say it can cause argyria and some say it doesn't..I think that everyone has an opinion...you can find pros and cons about everything you read....it's up to everyone of us to do our own research and decide for ourselves....don't get me wrong I appreciate your postings, and everyone elses, but it's just like a doctor doesn't agree with acupuncture and most acupuncturists don't believe in western medecine....I KNOW acupuncture works for me and that is my FACT....I've done everything the doctors told me with no results for many medical problems, whereas I've seen a big improvement in my life with acupuncture...and QiGong ....but NO doctor will ever go along with those facts...what you believe is half of what works...- Argyria is largely a mainstream scar...

This is a reply to # 1,017,343The blue skin cosmetic condition known as argyria is really quite rare and comes from very large quantities of crude silver. Mostly, it is a condition that mainstream medicine and their FDA lapdogs have latched onto to try to scare people away from a safer, more effective and much less expensive competitor to FDA approved products.
I have believed in acupuncture and Oriental medicine as a matter of faith for some time - after all, they did have about a 6000 year head start on western medicine!
You are right - belief has much to do with success. And in no way is it my intention to shake anyone's belief in silver - homemade or otherwise. It is one of the world's miracles to me.

MoreThis is a reply to # 1,017,406I don't watch a lot of TV, but by sheer luck or karma if you're into that,(as I am - Karma as in getting oneself more and more tightly wound in a knot of delusion through unskillful actions and thoughts), I managed to catch an incredible documentary.
Originally, A&E aired a doc about tatoos. Someone found a 10,000 year old iceman covered in linear markings and determined that tatooing was over 10,000 years old.
An accupuncturist saw the program and contacted them. Apparently, the marking were the result of the accupuncture, originally applies with stones to the accupuncture points.
I'd call 10,000 years, "tried tested and true". Now, compare a few Western favs. Check top 100,

. Not one over 20 years old.
