Montana’s Libertarian candidate for Senate has turned blue from drinking a silver solution that he believed would protect him from disease.
Stan Jones, a 63-year-old business consultant and part-time college instructor, said he started taking colloidal silver in 1999 for fear that Y2K disruptions might lead to a shortage of antibiotics.
His skin began turning blue-gray a year ago.
He does not take the supplement any longer, but the skin condition, called argyria, is permanent. The condition is generally not serious.
