•Argyria: The rare disease that turns people blue
81% Informative
Argyria is caused by the ingestion of — or exposure to — silver or silver-containing compounds.
People who work with silver or use colloidal silver as a dietary supplement are at the greatest risk of developing argyria.
The silver accumulates in the body and thus turns the skin and nails bluish-gray.
Symptoms can vary depending on how much silver enters a person's body, how it enters the body, and how long it has accumulated.
