What is Argyria?

Argyria is a non-toxic condition caused by the extreme misuse of very strong silver products. When huge amounts of silver are consumed over time and the body is unable to excrete the silver through both the urine and the fecal tracts the body may slough off the excess silver into the skin cells to get rid of it. This condition is known as argyria. Argyria has no known side effects except that it causes a graying of the skin color. The condition is only cosmetic in nature. In most cases the discoloration is permanent. Argyria has never been reported with the use of low part-per-million, non-salt related silver products. In fact, because so many silver products are being used nationwide, the US EPA issued a RFD or (daily intake limit) level of silver that could be safely consumed every day for a person's entire life. The EPA RFD, issued in 1991, is discussed in detail later in this report. -30-
