RE: CSquestion regarding CS production
Hello Asif, While the electrode terminals on the SG6 are on 2 cm centers, the electrodes are bent at the top at 90 degrees to make the connection. This brings the electrodes out to the outside edge of the terminals. You end up with electrodes that are spaced 4 cm in the water.

RE: CSValley Fever
Hello Bob, MMS2 is calcium hypochlorite. Bleach is sodium chlorite. When you add either of these to water you form hypochlorous acid. When you add chlorine gas to water you also form hypochlorous acid. Hypochlorous acid is the active ingredient in chlorination. When hypochlorous acid is exposed to an acid, chlorine gas is released. Swallowing calcium hypochlorite and having it for hypochlorous acid in the presence of stomach acid produces chlorine gas. Chlorine is a wonderful disinfectant, but it reacts with organic material and can form disinfectant by products that are known to cause cancer. Chlorinating the GI tract will disrupt the flora in it, but you have to question if that is in the persons best long term health interests.

RE: CS poor immune system
Hello Martsmail53, To wipe out gum disease you need to start strong. If I had that problem I would mix up a mouthwash that has a 30 PPM concentration of free chlorine dioxide. NOTE: this is not what a dose of MMS produces. MMS produced chlorous acid and that can make the infection worse by irritating the tissue of the gums. This solution is made from sodium chlorite, but is activated so that there is very little change in the PH of the water used in the mouthwash. This mouthwash solution is used 4 times a day for 2 - 3 days after brushing and flossing. The proper way to use this is to take a mouth full and swish for 60 seconds. Spit it out, then repeat a second time. It that time the infection will be eliminated from the gum and jaw bone areas. To promote healing after this 2 days of killing off the infection you need to keep infection from getting re-established in the gum area. This time you switch over to a mouthwash that has 1000 PPM of available chlorine dioxide. When you take a mouth full of this solution, only trace amounts of free chlorine dioxide will be released as the solution comes into contact with the acids in the mouth. This keeps infection away, and does not irritate the gum tissue. Take a mouth full of this and swish for 30 - 60 seconds. Do this 2 times a day. Do not rinse after you spit this solution out. This takes care of the topical approach. In addition you can drink some colloidal silver to take care of infection inside the body. Also pay attention to diet and proper hydration. To mix up these mouthwash solutions you will need sodium chlorite and hydrochloric acid. If you tell me the concentrations of those solutions you have I will give you directions on how to mix up the two different mouthwash solutions.

It may be that they'll have to keep that part of the foot covered. Some dogs eventually get into a habit of foot licking which is hard to break. I had a dog that did it in the spring. There was something growing that he was allergic to. Oddly though, he only licked one foot! But the pads of the foot, and between the toes, was always red and raw from licking. I kept aloe on it, along with Vit. E, and would keep it wrapped. Then when summer came, I could undo the wrapping and he'd leave the foot alone. Next spring, same thing.

RE: CSdistiller/ppm/hanna meter
Hello Beth, Distilling removes impurities from the water. I would try using tap water and distilling that. The only concern would be if there are heavy metals in your tap water, but you should be able to do some research to see if distilling will remove whatever is in your water that makes it not potable. The PWT is very sensitive and should be rinsed with distilled water after every use if you want consistent results. I chased the calibration around a little until I rinsed with distilled water first, then added the calibration solution and adjusted the meter. Afterward, I once again rinsed with distilled water. You may have to buy a jug to start with, but once you get your distiller set up you can just use your own water.

RE: CSMRSA - again
Hello Dan, A word of warning... Muriatic acid is usually around 32%. This is a strong concentration, and when mixed with a high concentration sodium chlorite solution like MMS it can be explosive. Heat is given off during the reaction and boiling is not uncommon. When using HCl as an activator, it is best to dilute the sodium chlorite down to 5% and the HCl down to 6%. You use equal amounts of each and end up with all of the available chlorine dioxide released as free chlorine dioxide. Don't play with this unless you take the proper chemical precautions to protect the area where you are working, yourself, and anyone else that is in the area. Also protect your animals.

RE: CSMRSA - again
Hello Paula, The MMS protocol doesn't produce enough chlorine dioxide to be effective against MRSA. It helps, but it isn't strong enough to eliminate it. If you had hydrochloric acid, a topically mixture could be made that is strong enough, and still not too strong to irritate the skin and surrounding tissue. However, let's work with what you have. Mix up in a glass 1 ml of MMS and add to that 1 ml of 10% citric acid. Let this activate for 10 minutes, then add enough water to make a total solution of 125 ml. Cut a square of paper towel that will fit over the problem area. Dip the paper towel into the solution and apply. Let it sit there for 5 minutes, then repeat 2 more times. This will give you 3 applications in all. This solution has around 100 PPM free chlorine dioxide but is an acid so it may irritate the skin. An application in the morning followed by another application in the evening should eliminate the surface MRSA. You can mix the solution in the morning, use it, and store it out of UV light until evening and use it again then. It probably should be mixed fresh each morning. Re-infection is another issue and you may want to consider disinfecting clothing and sleeping materials to remove that possibility. In your washing machine you can pour 5 ml of MMS into the water and that should help. In order to get a more accurate figure I would need the amount of water it takes to fill up your machine during a typical load.

RE: CSMMS
Hello Paul, MMS is a 22.4% sodium chlorite solution. People have been using Stabilized Oxygen since the 1940's by adding it to water without activation. Stabilized Oxygen is a 3.5% sodium chlorite solution. Dilute sodium chlorite (what is made when you add small amounts of sodium chlorite to water) will activate when exposed to stomach acid, but it isn't a quick reaction. The theory is that it continues to activate after it passes through the stomach. There is debate as to what causes sodium chlorite solutions to work at all. The chlorine dioxide produced during activation doesn't live for any length of time inside the body. I think most of it is used up by the time it hits the back of your mouth. This leaves the chlorous acid which breaks down into chlorite. If chlorite is what is doing the work, then an un-activated solution would allow for more chlorite to enter the body. In rats, the half life of chlorite is a little over 40 hours, and it collects in all the organs of the body including the brain. Since chlorite is a free radical it could be that this is what is doing the oxidation work. Activated solutions allow a greater concentration of chlorous acid to enter the stomach and the chlorous acid is a little more stable. Un-activated solutions do not shock the stomach, but only tend to be partially activated by the stomach acid. This is an area were more testing is needed to understand and document what is going on. This far we only have some theories. If you search on stabilized oxygen you can find information on how this has been used. Originally, people thought that it supplied the body with additional oxygen and that is where the name came from. It actually does provide the body with a little extra oxygen, but it does this by killing off the older red blood cells and stimulating the production of new ones. If you have a lot of old, infected, and/or dying red blood cells, you will experience a lift as they get eliminated and new ones take their place. 6 drops of 22.4% sodium chlorite (MMS) in 125 ml of water will give you a concentration of about 380 PPM available chlorine dioxide. The general dose of stabilized oxygen for illness is 20 drops of the 3.5% solution in 250 ml of water. This ends up at a concentration of about 84 PPM available chlorine dioxide.

RE: CSMMS biofilms
Hello PT, Sodium chlorite solutions are very effective both in cleaning up biofilm and keeping it from reforming. The range of applications runs from dental irrigation water, to greenhouse water, to heating systems, to cooling towers, to humidifiers, to piping, to emergency water storage, to smelly washer syndrome, etc. In many cases a shock dose of 25 - 50 PPM is sent through the system in order to break up the biofilm, then the concentration is dropped to 0.25 - 1.0 PPM depending upon the application. In some saltwater aquariums, the level is kept below 0.04 PPM because I believe some shrimp larva can be killed if the concentration exceeds that. In freshwater aquariums the concentration varies depending upon the species of fish, but is usually in the 1 - 3 PPM range. Also, ORP is used together with sodium chlorite solutions to keep the biofilm down in the tank. In general, chlorine dioxide penetrates the biofilm layer and changes to chlorite. As the bacteria grows, the chlorite is transformed back to chlorine dioxide and that kills off the bacteria. This goes on until the biofilm has been eliminated, then the reaction goes on to chloride and the chemical is washed out of the system. What is your application?

If your application needs to knock down a rapidly spreading bacteria, ASC may be able to do that but chlorine dioxide may be necessary. If you are trying to control the spread of bacteria or prevent colonies from forming, sodium chlorite in water is a good way to go. A couple of examples... When you butcher a chicken the meat becomes infected with the bacteria from the gut. ASC is sprayed on, or the meat is dunked into a tank with ASC in it. The ASC solution knocks the bacteria load down and the residual keeps it in check. Mold in the bathroom can be killed off with ASC, but once it is removed you can simply spray a sodium chlorite solution around to keep the mold spores from forming new mold areas. Another example has to do with a mouthwash. If you rinse with ASC, you blast the teeth to a rather strong solution that can damage the enamel of the teeth. However, if you use a sodium chlorite solution, it only activates in proportion to the amount of bacteria in the mouth and activates where the bacteria is. In this case the activated solution is working in the biofilm area and it somewhat ignores the other areas. The problem with ingesting these chemicals is that you quickly have levels of chlorite in the body that are higher than what have been found to be safe. This is one of the reasons the FDA, Canadians, and Australians are taking a closer look at the MMS protocol. Tom -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.

If you are trying to control the spread of bacteria or prevent colonies from forming, sodium chlorite in water is a good way to go. A couple of examples... When you butcher a chicken the meat becomes infected with the bacteria from the gut. ASC is sprayed on, or the meat is dunked into a tank with ASC in it. The ASC solution knocks the bacteria load down and the residual keeps it in check. Mold in the bathroom can be killed off with ASC, but once it is removed you can simply spray a sodium chlorite solution around to keep the mold spores from forming new mold areas. Another example has to do with a mouthwash. If you rinse with ASC, you blast the teeth to a rather strong solution that can damage the enamel of the teeth. However, if you use a sodium chlorite solution, it only activates in proportion to the amount of bacteria in the mouth and activates where the bacteria is. In this case the activated solution is working in the biofilm area and it somewhat ignores the other areas. The problem with ingesting these chemicals is that you quickly have levels of chlorite in the body that are higher than what have been found to be safe. This is one of the reasons the FDA, Canadians, and Australians are taking a closer look at the MMS protocol.

Hello Renee, Now, if we could get everyone talking in PPM, there would be no confusion. J Tom From: Renee [mailto:gaiac...@gmail.com] Sent: Saturday, September 18, 2010 4:25 AM To: silver-list@eskimo.com Subject: RE: CSTumor reduction Great explanation, as usual, Tom. But--since most people only know MMS, and can not get the flakes--or don't have them and don't want to mess making their own liquid--I think most everyone will stick with the MMS designation. At least when someone says that, we know it's the 28 (22.4)% solution, which we can now say--dilute down to 5%, or 2%. Whereas if a person says ASC, then don't we still have to ask at what percentage the SC was for getting the ASC? I guess because almost everyone will continue to deal with MMS, and call it that despite it being simply liquid sodium chlorite, we need verbiage to keep it clear when talking about dilutions. That's why I liked the MMS5, for MMS at a 5%, rather than typing out 5% sodium chlorite, because most people are going to use their bottle of MMS to make a 5% solution of sodium chlorite. But I totally understand your reasoning and your need, in your line of work, to be as specific as possible. It's like being on an herb list and asking about a plant using the local common name. To give USEFUL help, all the other herbalists from all over the world need to know the Latin name. Otherwise, we can be talking about 10 different unrelated plants! Yet, only herbalists seem to use the Latin names. Everyone else is content with their local name. It can get frustrating sometimes, trying to get that Latin name used, or simply figure out which plant the person, who doesn't know the Latin name, is talking about. Samala, Renee image001.gif
RE: CSTumor reduction
Hello Renee, When I think of MMS, I think of the whole MMS protocol. When I think of sodium chlorite, only one part of the thinking process goes to thinking about MMS. The rest go to the various other uses of sodium chlorite. The confusion can be eliminated simply by referring to the chemical name and leaving the commercial name out of the discussion. Sodium chlorite is referred to as Stabilized Chlorine Dioxide. The early alternative people changed that to Stabilized Oxygen when they reviewed the breakdown process of chlorine dioxide in air. The wrongly assumed that the process would be the same inside the body. In air in the presence of UV light ClO2 breaks down to chlorine and oxygen. The chlorine attaches to hydrogen in the air forming HCl. Under high humidity conditions, acid rain forms. The concentration of sodium chlorite is directly related to the available chlorine dioxide in the solution. 22.4% sodium chlorite has 224000 PPM available chlorine dioxide. 2% sodium chlorite has 2 PPM available chlorine dioxide. Since chlorine dioxide is a strong oxidizer only small amounts are needed. This is why measurements involve parts per million. You don't care what the concentration of the base chemicals are, you are targeting the PPM required to do the job at hand. When dealing with small amounts, low concentration solutions of sodium chlorite allow for more accurate measuring. For example, drops are difficult to accurately measure and are not very repeatable. If you are using a high concentration and dealing in drops, it is much better to dilute the concentration down and use ml or cc for measuring. When you add a weak acid to sodium chlorite, you branch off into Acidified Sodium Chlorite technology (ASC). So, sodium chlorite in water simply can be referred to as a very low percentage sodium chlorite solution. When an acid is added, you have ASC.

It can be used straight from the bottle for burns (But must be washed off in 30 seconds) and some people have put a few drops of straight MMS into a liter of water and sipped on that all day (which tends to be exactly what stabilized oxygen is--just harder to say exactly what percentage of sodium chlorite you are getting this way). Activated MMS is when you take drops of MMS from the bottle, add some form of acid, wait 3 minutes for it to 'activate'. Because Jim Humble always used just MMS for both straight and activated, it was very confusing to some people. I was trying to explain it to a German friend of mine and she just couldn't get his book, and his calling it all simply MMS, whether he meant activated or not. So I took to calling the activated (with acid added) as AMMS, and unactivated as simply MMS. Then she could understand. So a few people picked up the AMMS, but of course, not any of the followers of Jim. So it's still all out there as MMS, whether they are talking about activated or non-activated. It can be confusing. I wish they'd all pick up the AMMS designation just to make it easier for people new to MMS. Samala, Renee
RE: CSanti-microbial???
Hello Tony, Most sodium chlorite flakes or powder are 80%. Are you sure yours is 28%? To make a 5% solution from 80% powder of flakes you would put 62.5 grams of the flakes in a measuring container and add enough water to bring the total volume up to 1000 ml. This will end up being a 6.25%, by weight, solution, but since the flakes are only 80% pure it is actually a 5% sodium chlorite solution.

RE: CSMMS email received today
Hello Marshall, You are correct in that the concentration of chlorous acid is dependent upon the PH of the final solution, but the break down actually takes place over several hours. There is no method of measuring chlorine dioxide in the blood, because it doesn't last long enough to make it into the blood stream. Chlorite can be measured, and it does make it into the blood stream, along with all the organs of the body. The overlooked factor is the chlorous acid. Chlorous acid is a biostat. It can result in a 1/2 - 1 log reduction in pathogens, but its intended use is to stabilize the growth of pathogens. Chlorine dioxide, on the other hand, is a biocide that is capable of a 5 - 6 log reduction of pathogens. Since chlorine dioxide is almost immediately converted to chlorite, it may be the chlorite that is doing the work... Chlorous acid has been studied on meat and poultry carcasses, but not in humans. The concentration of chlorous acid is limited to the amount that doesn't cause bleaching. Animal studies seem to indicate that about 70% of the chlorine dioxide breaks down to chlorite, about 30% of a dose is absorbed into the body, and the half life of chlorite is a little over 40 hours. The chlorite is mostly eliminated through urine. I believe the absorption relates both to chlorite from chlorine dioxide and chlorite from sodium chlorite. When sodium chlorite is activated by the stomach acid, it allows a higher percentage of the solution to be available to be absorbed. When you activate it before taking it, some of the available chlorine dioxide is released as free chlorine dioxide which leaves less available chlorine dioxide in the solution. If the problem is up high in the GI tract, activation before ingestion makes sense. However, if the problem is lower, activation within the stomach may deliver more to the problem area. Chlorous acid has been studied and successfully used in oral health products, unactivated. This, along with the successes of the so called stabilized oxygen products, leads me to think that there may actually be something going on when you circulate sodium chlorite in the body and let it activate inside. I am not sure this process will ever be formally studied because of the effect of chlorite on blood cells, but there is always hope.

You'd have to talk to Tom for more facts about amounts and such. And mostly Tom does not advocate activating it externally either, as he says there's enough stomach acid to activate it. Certainly makes taking it much easier that way--although you can also use full strength drops this way too. There is plenty of stomach acid to activate it. That is not why it is activated externally. The reason is the speed of activation. If you do not activate it initially the level builds up slowly over an extended period of time, and reaches a rather low peak. This might be insufficient to kill what you are taking it for. By external activation, the build up is rapid, the peak high, and the overall duration rather short. Chemically here is what happens: Sodium chlorite reacts with acid and produces chlorus acid. Chlorus acid breaks down at a rate proportional to its concentration to chlorine dioxide. That is, if it is concentrated in a teaspoon of liquid, most of it will convert in the next 5 or so minutes. If it is in a dilute solution, such as 8 oz of water, or stomach acid, the rate is much slower, something like a couple of hours. Comparing the blood concentration of chlorine dioxide between these two for the MMS you will see a sudden rise to a significant level, followed very quickly by a drop off to almost nothing. If you take the sodium chlorite directly the build up in the blood will be over an hour, and it will stay at the peak for several hours, but the peak will be much smaller than the maximum with the MMS. The difference is like comparing putting 70% alcohol on an infection for a minute, or a dilute solution of .1% alcohol on it for several hours. It is quite likely that the latter would not have any affect at all.. Marshall -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.

RE: CSsinus infection/sinus washing
Hello Sol, If you have someone to help you, and can follow directions exactly, here is a way to deal with your sinus issues. Understand that these are powerful chemicals. If you use them properly, they work great, but don't try to abuse them. You will need a humidifier and 5% sodium chlorite. Mix up a bottle with 1 liter of water in it and add 5 ml (about 1 teaspoon) of the 5% sodium chlorite to it. Put this water into the humidifier and point it away from you. You don't want a direct blast, you just want to have some of this floating in the air. Next you will have to find a way to breathe through your nose. Use the humidifier for 4 hours a day. This is designed for a normal sized room. This is where you will need a helper. Have your helper stand outside for 10 minutes and then walk into the room while the humidifier is running. There should be no detectable odor. If there is an odor detected, add more water to dilute the solution a little. This solution has 150 PPM available chlorine dioxide and virtually no free chlorine dioxide. As the vapors fill the room, you will end up breathing some of those vapors into your sinus area. As the solution encounters infection, trace amounts of chlorine dioxide will be released killing off the infection. This is not a whizz bang production, but is designed to knock the infection down a little bit at a time. After 3 - 4 days of this, you should experience an improvement. Now comes the hard part. The sinus area is supposed to have a beneficial flora in it. Infections form when the flora gets wiped out or out of balance. Chlorine dioxide will probably wipe out the flora along with the infection, so after a few days of using the humidifier, stop using it and find a way to introduce some probiotics into your sinus area. Unfortunately, the re-growth of flora in the sinus area is a slow process, and hopefully you won't get re-infected while you are trying to grow the new flora. This is a 3 - 4 day process. Make sure the level in the room is below the odor threshold, and be sure to add probiotics after the infection has been knocked down. This process (minus the addition of probiotics) has been used with chickens, turkeys, and ducks, and has been very successful in dealing with respiratory problems. In those cases the chicken coop has a lot more ventilation, and the concentration used was about 1000 PPM. The time was reduced to a fogging morning and night. I have tried this inside a house and 1000 PPM is way too high, 500 PPM is about the odor threshold, so 150 PPM should not present a problem. Having the humidifier run for 4 hours will make up for the lower PPM concentration. This is a technical procedure, so make sure you understand all of the instructions. I am not sure what probiotic will work best, but you should be able to find on by doing some research. People introduce the probiotic by using a neti pot, but there are other ways to do this if you are unable to use one. Good luck and here's hoping you achieve better health.

Repeated until you have used all of the solution up. Next take a mouthful of the unactivated mouthwash solution and rinse your mouth out and spit it out.

Here is an excerpt of what I have just finally! found on tightening teeth: So this is how to have a healthy mouth in less than one week! Mix up a 10 drop dose of MMS. Put 10 drops in a dry empty glass, add 50 drops or Ā¾ teaspoon of lemon juice or 10% citric acid solution, swirl to mix, and wait 3 minutes and add Ā¼ glass of water. Using a soft tooth brush, pour a few drops on the tooth brush and brush your gums at the point where the gums and teeth come together. Keep this up for 5 to 8 minutes or more. Be very thorough; keep adding drops to your tooth brush. Brush so that a little bit of MMS works it way under the gums where they touch the teeth. Of course brush the teeth as well. MMS will not hurt the enamel of the teeth and will kill plaque and other buildups on the teeth. If you gums and mouth is in very bad shape (bleeding, with loose wobbly teeth, aching, and bad smelling) brush as described above three or four times a day for several days. Also floss you teeth while holding small amounts of MMS in you mouth. No matter how bad, if you brush and floss properly, they will be mostly cleared up within a week. Give them three weeks for the gums to be completely cleared up, and hard. It may take up to 2 months until all teeth are solid like they were welded in place. After being treated with MMS it will normally be unnecessary to pull most of the teeth that would otherwise need pulling. However, if there are teeth that you are sure will need to be pulled, don't wait until the teeth are solidly in place. At that point they will be extremely hard to pull as they will become attached to the jaw bone as nature meant them to be. So far all those people who have called to say it didn't work, have also called to say that once they used MMS right, their mouth cleared up. MMS is a weak oxidizer and cannot hurt anything in the mouth or body except pathogens. Once your mouth is completely healthy, you will not need to floss and you will need to brush with MMS only once or twice a week.

Fact is most glass jars you will find in supermarkets have acidic foods in them because these acidic foods would taste like crap if sold in a tin can. Glass resists these foods but still they worm their way into the glass. So supermarket glass is an amusing trap. Lots of glass there but all with acid foods in them that throw off the colloidal silver making If you don't want to buy clay but you have clay in your soil. Just use that in a thick slurry Thanks Garrick

Hello Bodhisattva, Yes, D3 is used to kill rodents... However, did you happen to notice the amounts needed? I believe the LD50 for rats is around 43 mg/kg of weight. The standard dose of D3 recommended for people is 5000 IU. D3 resin has 2800 IU per gram, or 28000 IU per milligram. If a rat weighs 90 kg, it would take 4050 mg of D3 to achieve killing half of the population you are testing. 4050 mg is 11340 IU. This is a lot more than the 5000 IU recommended. I believe the old adage is that water will kill you if you drink enough. I wonder what the LD50 is to kill rodents by filling them with water... While this is an interesting use of D3, it is nothing to be alarmed about concerning taking D3 to build your serum levels to a therapeutic range.

Water - Chlorinated w/nasty byproducts, fluoridated (toxin), and reprocessed very quickly from waste.

Re: CSHELP! Could use some advice on PREVENTING mold
Hello Garrick, Assuming that you need 4 liters for your fogger and you are simply trying to prevent mold and mildew from forming... Place 80 ml of 5% sodium chlorite in a container and add 16 ml of 50% citric acid. Swirl together and let this activate for 10 minutes. Then add it to the 4 liters of water in your fogger. You want to set the fogger to a very fine mist and then you fog from one end of the room, then move the fogger to the other end of the room and fog back to were the fogger was initially. You can also fog around the perimeter of the room. You have to be mindful to avoid the fumes. This solution has 600 PPM available chlorine dioxide (it should not bleach but it is best to take care not to spill any) and 120 PPM of that is free chlorine dioxide. The chlorous acid residual will offer protection against further mold and mildew growth for 2 - 6 weeks depending on atmospheric conditions. When you are done, be sure to run some water through your fogger. The chlorous acid solution will make the plastic of the fogger brittle and it will break if it is not rinsed out.

Hello Malcolm, While I totally agree with you, it is just too much fun to simply stop. This batch will be played with to death and never consumed. The saga continues. I decided to add some baking soda to the solution to balance the PH. The PH had dropped to about 3 and I brought it back up to 6.8. Next I added some ascorbic acid and it turned brown, then almost immediately turned clear again. I added more and the same thing happened. More is added and the same thing happens again. Finally I ended up with a gray layer at the bottom of the jar, but the rest of the solution is clear. I just shook it up to see what happens. The PH is now back to 4.6. Very interesting stuff. I hold it up to the light with the sun at my back and it looks bluish gray. When I turn around and look at the sun through the solution it looks dark amber. I find it interesting that I still have a great Tyndal effect and that the solution is staying clear. Oh well, I will exercise (or as Dok commented exOrcise) it a few more times and see what happens.

It will keep mold and mildew from forming, and kill off any that is just starting to form. Let me know if you want to go this way and I can give you the mixing instructions and all the help you need in applying it.

Re: CSSolid sodium chlorite mold killer
Hello Kathy, To kill off a fungus using chlorine dioxide you need a CT of around 100. A high concentration would cause respiratory distress, so you would have to increase the time at a lower concentration. There has been some anecdotal evidence that in addition to removing mold and mildew from a room, the 30 day release packets have also help with asthma. I think the key here is to start small. If you detect the chlorine dioxide odor, the concentration is too high. It is difficult to measure the concentration of chlorine dioxide in air, but the threshold of detection is in the 0.4 - 0.6 PPM range. The CT of 100 would require being in a room with this concentration for about 200 hours. The body works differently than industrial applications, so I would probably double the amount of time. That brings the total up to 400 hours, or almost 17 days. Since you may only spend half of your time in the house, figure a month. That works out very convenient... you need about 30 days, and the packets last about 30 days. I usually use the medium packets, but you may want to pick up some of the small and medium packets. This will allow you to adjust the concentration as needed. Now, IF your body can tolerate this, IF the problem is actually a fungus, and IF this allows the chlorine dioxide to come into contact with the fungus, it should work. A lot of IF's. It is important to pay close attention to your body and at the slightest hint of adverse reaction to remove the packets and open the doors for a few minutes. There is a very fine line here so you have to be somewhat adapt at tightrope walking. Chlorine dioxide may not be the best method of dealing with this, but this information should help you evaluate it use.

Re: CSSolid sodium chlorite mold killer
Hello Kathryn, That is exactly why chlorine dioxide is so superior to chlorine. While they are in the same family, their mode of action is very different. Chlorine acts by coming into contact with the mold. While in contact, it oxidizes it, and at the same time chlorinates it leaving a disinfection by product. It have very little penetration power, so you have to actively apply it to every piece of mold in order for it to have a chance at being effective. Also, you need a much stronger solution than what is currently recommended for use with mold. When you use that strong a concentration, you end up with bleach damage. Chlorine dioxide, on the other hand, remains as a gas, even when it is in solution. As a gas it penetrates structures and kills not only the surface mold, but also the root structure of the mold. It does not chlorinate the spores, it simply oxidizes them. I totally agree that you should first do your best to eliminate the moisture source, and then clean up any mold that is present. However, beyond that chlorine dioxide has the ability to penetrate dry wall, furniture, books, the wood work in closets, grout in the shower, and so on. This penetrating power kills the mold that is left after cleaning. Chlorine dioxide at high concentrations does have a strong odor, but I am surprised at how well people who are odor sensitive tolerate it use when the proper concentrations are used. There is a fine line between an effective concentration and one that is an irritant, however, if you follow the proper instructions the side effects are eliminated. Also, there are ways to incorporate chlorine dioxide without any odor at all.

The problem is that whatever is causing the mold smell is an active growth of mold, a colony somewhere. To understand that, one needs an awareness of how fungal colonies grow. To grow shitake mushrooms, for instance, one farm puts a plug of spores into an oak log, and leaves it for a couple of years. By the time it sprouts the fruiting body ( a mushroom), the entire large area inside the log is shot through with the mycelium- that needs a critical mass to be able to reproduce. So to kill the surface mold will not do any good in the long run, esp if a person has a toxin mediated illness. And I am not going to nit pick chlorine dioxide vs bleach, etc- they are all chlorine compounds and should work similarly. For a person who is brain fogged from toxins, I would not suggest using something like that since many also react to strong odors, even if they are usually benign, which any kind of chlorine compound is not. ymmv, Kathryn
Re: CSSolid sodium chlorite mold killer
Hello Kathy, I was just wondering... Have you been able to identify the bacteria, fungus, or virus that causes asthma? Chlorine dioxide is used to kill off bacteria, fungi and viruses. If you can identify the one that you are dealing with, you can get an idea of what it takes to kill if off.

Re: CSSolid sodium chlorite mold killer
Hello Renee, This product is highly recommend and works very well. http://www.biocidesystems.com/room-shocker-30-day-time-release--medi30.html You can mix your own, but when you mix the two chemicals together, the reaction kicks in and it ends up being a little stronger than you planned. The 30 day time release keeps the chemicals separated, but still allow the gases to mix. This is a very clever design, and it works very well. Unfortunately, they have to pay for the patient, so it is also more expensive. You can separate the chemicals using a paper towel, but there is a potential fire hazard should the solution get wet, dry out, and sunlight hit it. On the shady side of the house, it probably would be OK, but I am not recommending this until I can complete more testing on it. I have several set up, they seem to be working fine, and I have had no fires so far, but I still can't recommend doing this. I have also taken a used up 30 day time release packet and refilled it with new chemicals. That works fine. With normal humidity (40 - 60%) there is no need to leave the house, but if the humidity gets to 90% or above, there are some fumes. Also, keep in mind that chlorine dioxide is a disinfectant and not a detergent. To eliminate mold you first need to clean it up, then eliminate the cause of the mold, then you can use chlorine dioxide to keep it from forming again. If you don't clean it up, you end up with dead mold spores floating around in the house. It is not known if dead spores are a health problem, but why take a chance.

Re: CSSodium Chlorite and Nail Fungus
Hello Marshall, The theory is that the chlorous acid is formed during the activation process. Depending on the PH, some free chlorine dioxide is released into the solution. There is a rough stability at this point, but as the free chlorine dioxide is used up the chlorous acid breaks down releasing more chlorine dioxide in an effort to balance things again. In actual use things aren't quite that simple. In use the PH can fluctuate which will speed up or slow down the breakdown process of the chlorous acid. In addition there can be a large organic load that soaks up all the free chlorine dioxide as fast as it is produced. Also, the oxidizing solution can become polluted with other fluids changing the reaction properties again. I am not convinced that there is anyone in industry that really understands what is going on with this, but they have demonstrated that it is very effective. I believe the emphasis has shifted a little from chlorine dioxide to the properties of chlorous acid. An easy way to demonstrate the properties of the chlorous acid/chlorine dioxide equilibrium is to mix up a chlorous acid solution and disrupt the balance. You can do this by putting 3 ml of 5% sodium chlorite into a glass and activating it with 3 ml of 10% citric acid. Let the activation continue for 10 minutes, then add 200 ml of water. Note the color and odor of the solution. Next, add 50 mg of ascorbic acid to the solution. What has happened to the color and odor of the solution? Next, set the container aside and come back to it in about 60 minutes. What has happened to the color and odor of the solution this time? I believe HACH has reagent kits available for chlorine dioxide testing, but they may be limited to lower concentrations. Tom - Original Message - From: Marshall Dudley mdud...@king-cart.com To: silver-list@eskimo.com Sent: Monday, March 29, 2010 7:56 AM Subject: Re: CSSodium Chlorite and Nail Fungus Cool. I am going to read through that stuff and try to learn some more. From my limited knowledge I was under the impression that when you mix an acid with sodium chlorite the reaction is pretty well instantaneous, regardless of which acid is used. However it makes chlorous acid, not chlorine dioxide. The the chlorous acid converts to chlorine dioxide, the rate of conversion being something close to being proportional to the concentration squared. Now, thinking about it, it seems that adding the two teaspoons to 8 ounces of water first is not correct, they should be added together first with no dilution to get as much conversion as possible. That could be part of the problem. Another thought comes to mind as well. Since the rate of conversion goes up dramatically with concentration of chlorous acid it is possible that the rate is dependent on the level of chlorine ions and not chlorous acid specifically. In that case the use of hydrochloric acid adds additional chlorine ions and that might increase the conversion as well. So maybe if one were to use citric acid, but add some additional sodium chloride, the conversion might go up as well. This is all supposition and will require experimental testing to confirm or deny. I hope I can test for chlorine dioxide levels after reading the materials, of so, then I should be able to give information that is conjecture but rather experimentally confirmed. I do have a HACH scanning photospectrometer, so maybe I can use it to get some very good information, if I can figure out how to calibrate it for chlorine dioxide. Maybe I can use the test strips for calibration, they may not be as accurate as desired, but once I have a calibration point, it will all be relative.

CSFall out and Sediment
I am using an SG6 to make my EIS. I have the dial turned almost all the way to maximum, but just under full stop. When I am fininshed with a batch, I let it sit for a day, then measure the conductivity of the solution. It is comming in at about 14 uS. I use white HDPE bottles for storage and opened one up and noticed that after a month there was a little silver on the bottom of the bottle. Another bottle done at the same time has no fall out. The weird thing is that the conductivity is now showing about 15 uS. I thought the conductivity was supposed to drop a little during storage? And, yes the meter is in calibration. Along the same line, if I let the SG6 shut off and clean off the electrodes and let the solution sit for half a day, I find that it wants to generate more when I turn it back on. After doing this a couple of times I end up with some sediment at the bottom of the jar. My current practice is to decant the EIS out of the jar leaving the sediment behind. I then wash the sediment out of the jar and get it ready for the next batch. Is there any problems with this, or is it OK just to leave the sediment in the jar and let it age like that?

Re: CSSodium Chlorite and Nail Fungus
Hello Marshall, They are actual measurements. Here is a link to a label for a sodium chlorite/chlorine dioxide product. You should begin to get a feel for the difference between available and free chlorine dioxide in solutions. http://www.sanivex.com/pdf/EPA_Label.pdf There are a lot of variables involved with mixing, so we usually use theory to get into the ballpark, and then adjust according to actual measurements. I have found the Brix scale in a refractometer is an accurate way to determine the concentrations of citric acid and sodium chlorite solutions. A calibrated PH meter is used to monitor the activation process, and from that information tables can be produced to estimate the amount of free chlorine dioxide released during the activation. Unfortunately these tables are proprietarily so they are very difficult to find. Free chlorine dioxide is best determined with a colorimeter, but they do make test strips that give a very good approximation of what you have. I believe LaMotte makes them in the 0 - 10 PPM and 0 - 500 PPM ranges. Please note that these are different than chlorine test strips. Just to touch on the general rules... Sodium chlorite powder is only 80% pure. This means that you have to mix a 6.25% by weight solution to end up with a 5% sodium chlorite solution. Sodium chlorite solutions activated with acids only yield about 60% of the available chlorine dioxide. This means that a 5% sodium chlorite solution that should have 5 PPM available chlorine dioxide actually only ends up having 3 PPM available for use. In general, activation with 10% citric acid will result in about 10% of the available chlorine dioxide released as free chlorine dioxide. The proper activation ratio when using 10% citric acid is 1:1, and the optimum activation time is 10 minutes. In general, activation with 50% citric acid will result in about 20% of the available chlorine dioxide released as free chlorine dioxide. The proper activation ratio when using 50% citric acid is 1:5. That is 1 part 50% citric acid to 5 parts sodium chlorite. Once again the optimum activation time is 10 minutes. Activation with HCl is a little different. The concentration of HCl needs to be 1.2 times the concentration of the sodium chlorite you are going to activate. This means that if you have 5% sodium chlorite you would use 6% HCl. The activation ratio is 1:1, and the activation time is under 30 seconds. HCl drives the PH of the sodium chlorite low enough to release all of the available chlorine dioxide as free chlorine dioxide. Those are some of the basics. From there you can explore a number of possibilities and design a disinfecting system that fits your needs. Chlorine dioxide can be used to stabilize bacterial growth, or it can be used to kill off the bacteria. In water purification it is used as a biocide whereas in food processing it is used as a biostat. In general, chlorine dioxide technology deals in biocide applications and acidified sodium chlorite technology deals in biostat applications.

Re: CSSodium Chlorite and Nail Fungus
Hello Marshall, Your method will be ineffective because it is not strong enough. I believe I followed your instructions properly, but please double check my efforts. I mixed 1.75 teaspoons of sodium chlorite powder in 8 ounces of water. I then mixed 2.5 teaspoons of citric acid powder in 8 ounces of water. I then placed 1 teaspoon of each in a glass, let it activate, then added enough water to make 1 liter. When I measure the sodium chlorite solution I find that it is a 2% solution. When I measure the citric acid solution I find that it is a 5% solution. When I mix a teaspoon of each together, let them activate, and add to make a liter of foot bath solution, I end up with about 6 PPM free chlorine dioxide. 100 - 150 PPM free chlorine dioxide is needed to penetrate the nail and nail bed, so 6 PPM is going to fall short of the goal. Sodium chlorite releases chlorine dioxide when its PH is lowered. The reason HCl is used in this case is because we want to release all of the available chlorine dioxide as free chlorine dioxide. I believe all of the HCl is used up in the reaction, so we don't really have to worry about HCl in the final solution. HCl is capable of reducing the PH of the sodium chlorite to a point where all of the available chlorine dioxide is released as free chlorine dioxide. In this case, the free chlorine dioxide is needed in order to kill off the fungus infection. We don't need a residual, we need penetrating power during the bath. The bath is repeated several times to make sure the fungus is eliminated. Citric acid is used when you are interested in making chlorous acid and only releasing a small portion of the available chlorine dioxide as free chlorine dioxide. When you add 5 ml of 5% citric acid to 2% sodium chlorite, the PH is driven down to about 2.8 releasing about 10% of the available chlorine dioxide as free chlorine dioxide. This is pretty much what happened. Now, if citric acid is all that you have, you can still achieve 100 PPM free chlorine dioxide. In order to do this you would need about 83 ml, or about 17 teaspoons, of each. 17 teaspoons would be 85 ml and that would give you a concentration of 1020 PPM available chlorine dioxide and 102 PPM of that would be free chlorine dioxide. This would put you in the range that would work with nail fungus. Tom - Original Message - From: Marshall Dudley mdud...@king-cart.com To: silver-list@eskimo.com Sent: Thursday, March 25, 2010 1:07 PM Subject: Re: CSSodium Chlorite and Nail Fungus HCl is rather corrosive. I would suggest using citric acid for the activation (just like adding MMS to lemon juice) instead. This is what I figure: molecular weight of sodium chlorite = 90.44 molecular weight of chlorine dioxide = 67.45 molecular weight of citric acid = 192.14 So if we have a liter of water, we need to make 100 ppm which requires 100 mg of chlorine dioxide. This will require 100*90.44/67.75 mg of sodium chlorite and 100*192.75/67.25 mg of citric acid. Thus we need 133.5 mg of sodium chlorite and 286.6 mg of citric acid per liter of water. However most sodium chlorite is only 80% NaClO2, so we have to use 25% more, or 166.875 mg of commercially available stuff. Now measuring the effective density of both, I find that one level teaspoon of sodium chlorite weights 4.4 g and one level teaspoon of citric acid (NOW brand) weights 5.5 g. Thus using volume measurements I find that we need .038 teaspoon of sodium chlorite and .052 teaspoon of citric acid. Now if we multiply both of these by 48 (48 teaspoons) we get 1.824 and 2.495 teaspoons per cup of water. This can be approximated by using 1 + 1/2 + 1/4 teaspoon for the sodium chlorite, and 2 1/2 teaspoons of the citric acid in a cup of water each. If you bottle each of these, then use 1 teaspoon of each in a liter of water for the bath, that should come pretty close to what is needed for the 100 ppm of chlorine dioxide. As for proper activation, I would do what is said below, use 1 teaspoon each in a glass of water, wait 30 seconds for activation, then add water to make one liter for the final bath.

Re: CSMaking 100% colloidal EIS
Hello Marshall, It has been a couple of days now, and there is some silver that is now covering the bottom of my bottle. I added some baking soda to the solution and brought the PH up to 6.7. The ORP now reads around 20. I believe the earlier reading was around 186, so there seems to be some relationship to PH. While 20 is not quite 0, it is pretty close, and I am still a little acidic with the solution. The amount of silver on the bottom of the bottle looks to be about the same as was observed in the other bottle.

Re: CSMaking 100% colloidal EIS
Hello Marshall, Some additional information... My EIS ends up with a PH of 6.5. The solution that I added the ascorbic acid to ended up with a PH of 3.5. I know that some reactions are sensitive to PH, so an idea would be to pick a PH target and add only as much ascorbic acid as is needed to reduce the PH of the solution to the target value. I used a pinch of ascorbic acid in 250 ml of EIS. I have measuring spoons that measure a drop, smidgen, pinch, dash, and tad. In liquid measurement a pinch is 0.3125 ml.

The other possibility would be that the remaining ascorbic acid made the solution acid enough to make the colloid unstable.

I don't know if this is significant, but it is interesting. I just mixed up another 250 ml bottle of EIS using 0.27 grams of ascorbic acid this time. The PH of this solution is 3.7.

Too much? Too little? Normal reaction? Well, let's see. If you have 8 oz of 10 ppm CS, and 90% of that is ionic, you would need the same molar quantity to react with it of ascorbic acid b(I think this is a valid assumption). That would be 8*10*.9/(108 (108 is the molecular weight of silver) mol. Since citric acid has a molecular weight of 192, that would require that amount to be multiplied by 192 which gives .0128 ounce of ascorbic acid, which equals 0.36288 grams. That yours ended up with that low of a pH requires some rethinking. We have approximately the same proportion of both Ag2O2 and AgOH. If it only takes one molecule of ascorbic acid to break apart Ag2O2, then that would mean you only need half as much for that part, or in general only 75% of what I figured above. this works out to .272 grams. Now if you actually used less ascorbic acid, the pH may still be low due to the following possibilities: 1. Any absorbed CO2 is released and becomes carbonic acid. 2. Ascorbic acid may act as a catalyst instead of getting involved in the reaction. Good research, we need to keep trying things.

Re: CSVitamin D
Hello Marshall, Doctors have a bias against supplements. They point out that there is no regulation for purity or quantity of therapeutic agent with them. In addition, he had just become aware of the vitamin D issues this last summer and is still sorting through all of the information. At the time he thought that my levels were slow in rising which brought into question the quality of the supplement I was taking. I also think he was being a little impatient and wanted to see my go levels up---RIGHT NOW. He became aware of vitamin D when his nurse recently stubbed her toe against a file cabinet, cracked her toe, and it wouldn't heal. When he tested her for vitamin D, she was at 7. He was very aggressive in quickly getting her levels up and she healed quickly once her levels were in a therapeutic range. This prompted him to check everyone that was involved in his practice, and he found that about 90% of there were low. When I asked him why this wasn't checked last year, or the year before, he very sheepishly said that he didn't realize how much of an issue this was. He is very aggressive in keeping me healthy, as well as looking after everyone else that he is taking care of. I think the main reason was that my levels were not increasing at a rate that he was expecting, so he decided to kick them up a little with the prescription.

Re: CSMaking 100% colloidal EIS
Hello Marshall, When I add ascorbic acid to distilled water my PWT meter goes off of the charts. Does the ascorbic acid add ions to the water, or what am I measuring?

The actual color is more of a yellow if white light comes in from the side, but somewhat murky due to the large number of particles.

Hello Steve, It may also be important to figure out what oxidizes silver to form these oxides. Tom - Original Message - From: Norton, Steve stephen.nor...@ngc.com To: silver-list@eskimo.com Sent: Wednesday, March 10, 2010 8:27 AM Subject: CSSilver Oxide Formation Several studies I have seen attribute most, if not all, of the antimicrobial activity of silver particles to the formation of silver oxide on the particle in the bloodstream. One example: http://www.fpl.fs.fed.us/documnts/pdf2004/fpl_2004_dorau001.pdf Note that all these mechanisms relate to solvated silver ions, Ag+. The antibacterial properties of any metal come from its ions, which are generated from the neutral metal (1 5). In the presence of oxygen, metallic silver can be bactericidal because silver (I) oxide is soluble enough to release free silver ions (18). When dealing with metallic silver, though, it is important to note that antimicrobial activity depends on the extent of the active silver surface. Would it not then be desirable to form silver oxide on the particles that do form in EIS? - Steve N -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.

Re: CSany help dealing with MRSA, please
Hello Rainie, I would consider a multiple approach, especially if the MRSA is evident on the surface of the skin. Home brewed EIS is generally in the 10 PPM range, or a little higher. You can use this, but it may also be worth it to purchase some Mesosilver or Utopia CS to add some additional partials into the body. I have no idea how much a good dose is, and will leave that to others here. If there are skin sores an acidified sodium chlorite solution can eliminate the infection and penetrate the skin. You will need a solution with about 600 PPM available chlorine dioxide and about 60 PPM of that as free chlorine dioxide. This solution will have an acid PH of about 3, so you will have to add some baking soda to adjust the PH to about 6. The solution wants to be slightly acidic, but there is no reason to irritate the skin with a strong acid. The procedure is to get a cotton ball or square of bandage material that will cover the sore. Soak the bandage in the acidified sodium chlorite solution and tape it in place over the soar. When the solution evaporates out it is time to change the bandage. This time soak it in CS or EIS and reapply. When the silver solution dries out, wet it down again. Do this 3 - 4 times, then change the bandage out and start with the acidified sodium chlorite solution again. The rational behind this is that the chlorous acid/chlorine dioxide solution will rapidly kill off the MRSA, and then the EIS or CS solution will hold off any opportunistic pathogens and promote healing. If there are no sores on the skin, just ignore the last couple of paragraphs... Good luck.

Re: CSSilver Meter
Hello Gary, Until someone comes up with the relationship between conductivity and PPM of silver, it is all a ballpark best guess. However, the meter has a lot of other uses beside trying to guess at the concentration of EIS. If you purchase distilled water, how do you know it is of high quality? If you distill your own water, how do you know its quality? When you rinse out your jar and are ready to brew a batch, how do you know there is no contamination in the jar? If you bottle your EIS, how do you know the bottles you use don't add extra things to your EIS? How stable are the ions in your EIS over time? All of these questions can be addressed with a meter. The most important one is the purity of the water followed by the purity of the jar you are making your EIS in.

Re: CSHow to make gels?
Hello Lisa, Not a gell but... I fortified some Dr Bonners soap. Does that count? I concentrated some EIS from about 10 uS to about 30 uS then added that to the soap. I would think you could do something similar for the gell. I concentrated the solution by heating it and evaporating some of the water off. I don't have a way to measure PPM so I am just giving measurements in conductivity. The idea is that the more ions in the water the more conductive it will be.

Re: CSBuffered MMS answer from Tom
Hello Renee, Since MSM has a sulphur component and chlorine dioxide scrubs sulphur from the air and in solutions, I would guess that the MSM us being oxidized by the chlorine dioxide. Unfortunately, I am not set up to test for residual MSM, so I can't fully answer the question. Roy's success may be due to some extra MSM being left over after the chlorine dioxide in the solution is used up. The MMS protocol does not produce an efficient chlorous acid solution due to the excess activation. It appears that some of the chlorine dioxide may be used up by the excess citric acid in the solution.

Re: CSBuffered MMS question for Tom
Hello Renee, I would love to join up and chat with the people on the other list. How do I find it? Birds pick the galvanizing off of the wire in their cages and poison themselves. Adding some sodium chlorite to their drinking water chelates the metals out of their system and they no longer suffer damage from chewing on their cages. I advocate putting small amounts of sodium chlorite in pets drinking water. It will keep biofilm from forming, keeps the pets teeth clean, and can have remarkable restorative effects at just slightly higher concentrations. Chlorous acid is actually a well kept industry secret. Everyone, including the EPA and FDA, jump up and down about chlorine dioxide and only pay lip service to chlorous acid in passing. There are some aspects of food processing where efforts are made to minimize the production of chlorine dioxide upon activation. It is considered a waste product. You have to keep in mind that different jobs require different tools. Under certain conditions chlorine dioxide is the best technology to use. Under other conditions acidified sodium chlorite (including chlorous acid) works better. The challenge is knowing which tool to use.

Re: CSBuffered MMS question for Tom
Hello Renee, I finally got around to picking up some MSM and running some tests. It looks like MSM neutralizes about 92 - 100% of the free chlorine dioxide in the MMS-Lite mixture when you add chlorine dioxide to the solution. It also seems to inhibit the release of chlorine dioxide when you add chlorous acid to the solution. My tests only ran for 4 hours, and there are probably more combinations that could be checked out, but the initial results indicate that MSM and chlorine dioxide don't mix well. I really don't have a good way to test how much MSM is left after the chlorine dioxide is used up. Roy may be getting some results from the MSM, from drinking more fluids, or he may simply believe that this solution will help him and it does. There is also the possibility that unactivated sodium chlorite doesn't bind completely with MSM, and it may break off and be able to have some effect away from the MSM. In 1 liter of water, I added 1000 mg of MSM and I started with 0.88 ml (15 drops) of MMS activated with 0.88 ml of 10% citric acid. I let the activation continue for 10 minutes before adding this mixture to the MSM solution. In 1 liter of water this produces about 120 PPM available chlorine dioxide with about 24 PPM of that as free chlorine dioxide. When this was added to the MSM solution, there was no indication of any free chlorine dioxide initially, or after 4 hours of sitting on the counter. I then mixed up a chlorine dioxide solution of 120 PPM. I put 4 ml of 5% sodium chlorite in a glass and activated it with 4 ml of 6% hydrochloric acid. I then added this to the 1 liter of water that had 1000 mg MSM dissolved in it. When I measured the free chlorine dioxide it was 10 PPM. After waiting 4 hours the concentration of chlorine dioxide remained at about 10 PPM, so that would indicate that all of the anti-oxidant capability of the MSM could have been used up. I repeated each of these tests 4 times and the results were consistent each time. From this limited testing it would appear that MMS Lite is light on MMS... :) Tom

Since we've been discussing your great information on the MMS list, someone brought up the question of nausea levels. If AMMS is actually a poison that the body reacts to, causing nausea and diarrhea--rather than pathogen die-off as Jim says--why is it that once a certain level is reached, the body quits reacting that way? Meaning (and I have found this to be true for me also) that when I first started AMMS I could take 6 drops without nausea. At 7 drops nausea hit. I backed off, stayed at 6 for a few more days, then went back to 7 and no nausea. Same at each level. The person asking about this has worked up to the full 15 drops twice a day, and no longer has any nausea. Since we have been told this is because the AMMS has killed the pathogens so that there are no more death toxins in our system, and therefore we are no longer nauseated, how do we reconcile this with the fact that it's a poison and that our stomach/bowels were simply reacting to the poison? Is it because our bodies become use to the poison? I do know that MMS is an extreme product, causing the exact opposite reactions in different people. So I don't see a large problem with believing that MMS is both a poison that causes stomach distress, and yet can also NOT cause stomach distress after a while. :-) But there are others who have such faith in MMS and what Jim says, that it's hard for them to believe that their stomach only reacted because it is a poison, but is no longer reacting to it. If once a poison, always a poison. Sodium chlorite--such an interesting chemical! Samala, Renee
Re: CSMore questions for Tom
Hello Renee, While I have no experience with liposomal vitamin C, the answer is very simple. If the PH of the solution ends up acidic, it will activate sodium chlorite. Now, what happens afterward may need to be explored. Remember the basics. To activate sodium chlorite you have to reduce the PH of the sodium chlorite to below around 8. As a matter of fact, some people use vinegar as an activator... :) To bring this a little closer to being on topic, I am wondering what the reaction between EIS and sodium chlorite or acidified sodium chlorite or chlorine dioxide is.
