I know it’s off-subject, but regarding Prussian Blue: Is that the same purple colored crap we used to use on horses to prevent/treat infection?

[There were also recipes in the ‘70’s that used it as a coloring agent in making salt/sugar crystals.]

I remember it as being (something) Blue - "Prussian" sounds right. It used to be used as an antibiotic sort of thing. It came in a small bottle; in liquid form. It’d stain your fingers purple for a week or more.

Our horses would scrape their leg on the fence and we’d have to drain the infected wound, give an antibiotic shot and dress the wound with the purple liquid. I thought it was Prussian Blue. I could be wrong…

I know it’s a dumb question, I'm just trying to figure out if it's the same stuff I saw as a kid... it's interesting to see the various uses of different things.

Don't take it unless you know for sure that you have been exposed to the radionuclides that this is effective for. Injestion of any kind of chelating compound, or any dietary supplement, for that matter, carries a risk of adverse reaction. That will vary from person to person, but unless you know for sure that it is a necessary risk, don't take it. Medical tests such as a whole body scan can tell if you've injested quantities of contaminants at levels sufficient to warrant these treatment strategies. Don't take them "just in case", or "just to be on the safe side", because you may be doing yourself more harm than good.
