Hi Leslie,
It's sort of like Clorox. It's used to bleach wood pulp (paper) and
flour to make them white. It's also used to disinfect drinking water.
It's my understanding that MMS or Miracle Mineral Supplement is
chlorine dioxide. It turns into a toxic gas at 52 degrees Fahrenheit
so I'm not sure how people take it. Maybe someone else can explain it?
MMS is not chlorine dioxide, it is a 28% by weight solution of sodium
chlorite. When mixed with acid, either in a glass by adding lemon
juice, or vinegar, or when it hits the stomach acid, it converts to
chlorine dioxide. Chlorine dioxide is readily soluble into water, so it
simply remains in the water, or stomach fluid, or blood stream. It never
becomes a gas. When making it, and before dilution, some gas may be
given off if you wait more than the recommended 3 minutes after adding
the acid before diluting it. It is advised to never ever breath any gas
which may come off at this point.
The part that says "Two adults who ingested 250 ml of a 40 mg/l solution
of chlorine dioxide experienced headache, nausea, abdominal discomfort,
and lightheadedness within 5! minutes of ingestion. The symptoms
disappeared within another 5 minutes" is of interest however. This
works out to be equivalent to 18.2 drops of mms, which is if I remember
right the highest recommended dosage, yet appears to have only affected
the people for 5 minutes. Typically when you take MMS in the prescribed
manner, this is what one experiences, until either the pathogens are all
killed, or the body acclimates to it.

I wonder what chlorine dioxide is? Would this be like clorox? Or
is this what is in the MMS? Sounds risky to me.

gas is toxic to inhale. CLO2 in small amounts is NOT toxic to
healthy cells... just anerobes, virus, and parasites.

> Effects on Humans: Chlorine dioxide is a severe respiratory
and eye irritant in humans. Inhalation can produce coughing,
wheezing, respiratory distress, and congestion in the lungs
[Patnaik 1992]. Irritating effects in humans was intense at
concentration levels of 5 ppm. Accidental exposure at 19 ppm of
the gas inside a bleach tank resulted in the death of one worker
(time of exposure is not specified) [ACGIH 1991]. Workers exposed
for 5 years to average chlorine dioxide concentrations below 0.1
ppm but with excursions to higher concentrations had symptoms of
eye and throat irritation, nasal discharge, cough, and wheezing;
on bronchoscopy, bronchitis was observed in seven of the 12
workers [Clayton and Clayton 1982]. Concentrations of 0.25 ppm and
less have been reported to worsen mild respiratory ailments [ACGIH
1991]. Two adults who ingested 250 ml of a 40 mg/l solution of
chlorine dioxide experienced headache, nausea, abdominal
discomfort, and lightheadedness within 5!
minutes of ingestion. The symptoms disappeared within another 5
minutes [NLM
