Silver is toxic heavy metal. It reacts with proteins and it interferes with
copper and zinc metabolism. It ends up deposited in tissue as metallic
silver. Let me know if you want refs. I would much prefer to eat a little
hypochlorite than silver. But I would choose silver over amoebic dysentary
from my salad.
