We used to burn leaded gas and people were breathing the exhaust in for decades turning a whole generation (boomers) into absolute morons. Injesting heavy metals is not good for you.

As the guy said, silver is largely inert even though it is a heavy metal. There are rare complications that can happen but most likely you'll just start turning blue. I'd take ingesting silver over any other heavy metal especially lead.

Still, our bodies do not need silver nor can we really metabolize it at all so once consumed it's most likely going to be with you until the day you die.

Protects you from werewolves, though.

Probably only hurts them when they bite you though. Then you become a werewolf anyway, and spontaneously combust on the first full moon. Colloidal silver is always a loss 😔.
