Original post: I work around these chemicals in industry. This gives me specific training in handling and working around them, and gives me access to industrial hygienists for specific questions about exposure.
Wow Tom, that's terrific. What a great source you are! So now, if you don t mind, I have another question. First I guess I should give you my limited background. I was very impressed with MMS when it was first mentioned pretty much right after Humble posted about it. I ordered a bottle from Canada, as at that time there was only one US dealer and I couldn't contact him. Anyway, there were a couple of us on a list that ordered it, used it and liked what it did. Then one of the men started a list about MMS--and other alternative stuff--and for 2 years we discussed its use. Many experimented with different modalities than what Jim had posted simply because his protocol bothered them physically, so much. They were looking for easier ways to take it. I was so impressed, and felt like Jim said, that it may be hard to get at a future date, so I wound up buying a 100 pound barrel. At first I was selling small amounts of it--enough to make the 13 bottle batch that Jim talked about--until I found out that it's illegal to ship dry sodium chlorite without going through HazMat certification. Which I didn't want to do. So now I only sell the liquid MMS. Don't advertise, and don't sell a lot of it, but I feel like I am lucky to have it for my family and friends, if we ever need it. I probably have about 60 pounds of it left--enough to last my lifetime. lol Anyway, the original list for MMS has been quiet for about a year now, and the list owner has passed away. Someone started another MMS yahoo list because the original list was not just discussing MMS, and that person only wanted to talk about MMS. That list is still active and I don't post much there, but have lurked there, just to see. After all, using Jim's original protocol--there's only so much to say about AMMS. :-) Of course now Jim has changed the original protocol, and added MMS2, and a few other things about it, which they talk about, so it's been interesting. But someone not on that list, but with his own blog, has come up with MMS-lite. It's being talked about on the list. Turns out he tried taking MMS every which way for a whole year, but at 9 drops either activated or not he still felt sick all the time. He experimented and came up with the protocol of adding either activated or unactivated MMS drops to MSM water. He worked out a formula that he says makes him feel wonderful, and not at all nauseous. He takes this formula all day long. He's claiming that the MSM is buffering the MMS, which is why he's not sick. He believes that the MMS is getting into the cells without making him feel bad, and it is continuing to kill pathogens, all because of the MSM. I'm wondering if the MSM isn't somehow neutralizing the MMS/chlorine dioxide and he's feeling so much better simply from taking MSM in small doses all day long. MSM is known to have wonderful healing effects, though it's not common to drink it all day, every day. I'm wondering if doing this in this small amount, thereby keeping MSM in the system all day, is what is actually making him (and a couple others) feel so great. So my question--do you know, or think, that the MSM is in fact buffering the chlorine dioxide so that it doesn't make a person feel ill while still killing pathogens, or is the MSM actually chemically neutralizing the sodium chlorite or chlorine dioxide, and the health benefits are from the MSM only? Thanks so much for all your help, Tom. Samala, Renee
