*not* to argue, but to discuss ok?! *grin* ... i don't think i'm gonna convince you and i don't think you're gonna UNconvince me, but it's good to dialog about it cuz it's made me research even more than i have ...

i *know* that labeling things as "supplements" is a loophole to keep things on the market ... in my mind, it's a good thing that the FDA has as much burden to prove it's bad as the companies do to prove it's beneficial ... anyway, that's bordering on politics, so we won't go there ... *grin*

the *only* possible side-effect i've found is "argyria", where your skin turns gray ... the *only* modern incidence of this i can find is *one* woman who used colloidal silver protein nosedrops for like 20 yrs ... colloidal silver protein is *not* colloidal silver, it is a pharmaceutically tweeked version of it ... there *is* a *huge* difference ...

there have been some lab tests done ... while there isn't conclusive proof that CS is beneficial, they also didn't show *any* adverse side-effects ... and *that* is my point ... i can't find anything that indicates this will be bad for iZ + feel that it's worth a try because traditional methods are not working ...

silver sulfadiazine or silvadine contains silver ... it is a topical used in the majority (70%) of the burn treatment centers in the US to prevent infections ... in *my* mind, that lends to the credibility of silver's healing properties ... (http://www.argenol.com/pro9-2.htm)

but, good or bad, the bottom line is that the traditional treatments have stopped working for iZ and without *some* kind of help, *something* to slow down what's goin' on inside him, he's going to die soon ... i don't like 'experimenting' on my baby dragon! and i wouldn't do it at all if i believed that it would harm him ... or that there was even a slight chance that it may help ... i'm grasping at straws right now ... + i know that ... but it'a all iZ + i have right now ... *weak grin*

thank you Cliff!
