THE SILVER SAFETY CALCULATION™

Makes Things Extremely Simple

The EPA RfD for silver is 5 micrograms of silver per kilogram of body weight per day (5mgc/kg/day). Most silver supplements, however, whether called ionic silver or colloidal silver, are labeled in terms of parts per million (“ppm”), which is a measure of the concentration of silver in the product, not by micrograms.

The Silver Safety Calculation is a simple tool that takes care of every one of the conversions for you. Just plug in the pounds that you weigh and the “ppm” of silver in whatever silver supplement you’re using, and it will take care of the rest. You don’t have to deal with mcg vs ppm, or with kg vs lbs, or to even subtract 75% of the RfD to get to the 25% limit. It does it all for you.

SILVER 100
IONIC SILVER COMPLEX
WITH PATENTED
The Silver Safety Calculation upon which the guidelines on this site are based was developed by Jay Newman, creator of Silver 100™ Ionic Silver Complex with patented Opti-Silver™.
Silver 100™ was designed for optimally efficient delivery of silver ions into the human body.
The suggested usage on the label for Silver 100™ fully complies with the Silver Safety Guideline.
You can learn more about Silver 100™ with patented Opti-Silver™ at:

"To a chemist,
Opti-Silver represents
a brilliant chemical formulation..."

— Don Baird, PhD, chemistry professor, Nova Southeastern University; former director of the Department of Chemistry, Florida Atlantic University

 


* The EPA did not create and has not endorsed the Silver Safety Guideline. It has not represented that limiting silver intake
from silver supplements to 25% of the RfD will limit total silver intake to safe levels or adheres to the RfD guideline.
