Hi Michelle,
This is a debate forum against the use of mms.
Tom (silverfox) has come up with a safe way to use chlorine dioxide for disinfecting purposes. Other than that, I'm afraid that mms seems like a bunch of unproven hype.
I've been watching this forum and the mms support forum for quite some time now, and have yet to see anyone 'cured' of lyme, cancer, hepititus, aids, or any of the number of ailments that Jim Humble has claimed that can be cured by using mms. I've only seen one person who claims to have been cured on a different forum, and quite frankly nobody believes her.
Sorry to disappoint you, just keeping it real. Dont stop searching, there are a few forums on curezone that might help.
Good luck.

Hello Michelle,

I highly recommend making up a mouthwash and using it daily.

MMS is a 28% solution of sodium chlorite that is dangerous to handle. I recommend diluting it down to a 5% sodium chlorite solution. There are still some dangers with the 5% solution, but it is much safer to handle. You can do everything with the 5% solution that you can do with the 28% solution by simply adjusting the amounts used.

A member of our group closed the lid on the bottle of the 28% solution, and not realizing that they had contacted the solution, then rubbed an itch in the eye. Fortunately, we were near an eyewash station and no permanent damage was done, but there was a period of eye irritation. This concentration of sodium chlorite (28%) can cause eye damage and blindness if it is not quickly flushed out.

People have mentioned that then can smell chlorine dioxide later in the day coming from their fingers. The reason they can smell this is because they contacted the solution when mixing it up, then simply rinsed off. The solution doesn't simply rinse off and the solution remained on their skin. Their perspiration activated the solution and that is why then can smell it later in the day. You have to wash and scrub this off of your skin in order to remove it.

If you spill the 28% solution and wipe it up with a cloth towel, or a paper towel, or spill it on the rug or a wood table, and you let it dry, the residue can ignite by simply having the sun shine on it. A spill needs to be thoroughly flushed to dilute, then wiped up. Care must be taken when disposing the materials used while wiping up.

If you happen to use a stronger activator with the 28% solution, the reaction is explosive and the solution can boil up and splatter.

There are other issues, but those are the highlights of why the 28% sodium chlorite solution is dangerous to handle.

Moving on to the Miracle-Mineral-Supplement protocol...

The Miracle-Mineral-Supplement protocol is flawed.

Jim Humble has you increase the concentration of the dose to "bowel tolerance," and then to push through to a 15 drop target taken 2 to 3 times a day for a few weeks. He calls the vomiting, nausea, and diarrhea a "herx" reaction, when in fact it is a mild form of chlorine dioxide poisoning. As you "push through" you seem to end up shedding the lining of your stomach and GI tract and can observe "interesting things" in your stool.

At the doses used in the Miracle-Mineral-Supplement protocol, MMS is not lethal. However, its long term effects in humans has not been studied. The main reason for this is because long term studies on animals have shown adverse effects, so there is no reason to continue the studies on humans.

There is anecdotal evidence that some people experience some benefit as they start out on the MMS protocol. The best guess is that their intestinal flora is out of balance, they may have a problem with parasites, or they may have a fungus growth. We know that the chlorite ion does enter the blood stream and organs, but we don't know what it does there. Jim Humble speculates that the chlorite ions only target bad pathogens, but I have yet to see, or conduct a test that shows this, and Jim Humble won't share his test results that he based his information on. Chlorine dioxide kills all bacteria, both good and bad, and can oxidize red blood cells as they become damaged, faster than they can be replaced.

If you decide to continue, dilute your 28% solution down to a 5% solution and proceed cautiously. The goal is to increase your energy levels. If you start out noticing an increase in energy, then peak out and start to notice your energy declining, it is time to stop and move on to something else. You also don't need to use this everyday. You may want to consider using it once a week, or once a month. Since chlorine dioxide is an oxidizer, be sure to add anti oxidants, vitamins, minerals, and probiotics in between uses. Chlorine dioxide can chelate heavy metals, but it also chelates iron and magnesium which are important parts of your immune system. Many people while following the MMS protocol will end up with colds or the flu. This is most likely caused by a reduction in the immune system due to the chelation of iron and magnesium.

This brings us to Lyme...

Many people have followed the MMS protocol and have not been cured of Lyme. It does not seem to work even when taken at the maximum concentration for extended periods of time. There are some reports of some benefits, but then it seems to come back. It may be that the best way to benefit is to strengthen the immune system and reduce its load.

An excellent way to do this is by using the mouthwash.

To mix up the mouthwash, add 13 ml of 5% sodium chlorite to 500 ml of water. You can also add a drop of mint extract for taste. The activation is done, as needed, inside your mouth by the acids in your mouth. You take a mouthful and swish it around for 30 - 60 seconds, then spit it out. You can also gargle with it.

You can also use chlorine dioxide solutions to stop mold and mildew in your bathroom and other areas of your house and car, to disinfect your laundry, and sanitize surfaces in your kitchen and bathroom. All of this will reduce the load on your immune system and improve your health. I happen to think that a chlorine dioxide is excellent for disinfecting cuts, scrapes, and other wounds, but I am not sure it is "approved" for that. Anecdotally, it works very well without side effects, but I am not sure it has been well studied.

You can also purify your drinking water. City and well water is sometimes not a pure as it can be. When you drink this, your immune system has to go into action and keep you healthy by dealing with these impurities. Sometimes the water doesn't taste good, so your tendency is to drink something else. I make "gourmet" drinking water, and drink lots of it.

There are thousands of use for a chlorine dioxide solution, and it has been in use for over 65 years. It has been well studied and safe limits have been set (0.8 PPM). Jim Humble claims to have cured thousands using much higher concentrations (nearly 1000 PPM), but these claims are not verifiable, and when pressed, Jim Humble admits that they are anecdotal.

I admit that I feel much better after having a bowel movement, but I don't claim that it will be a miracle cure for all disease. I also don't think that you need to take a chlorine dioxide solution to have one. I do recommend that everyone should have at least one a day...

The important thing is to follow and log your energy levels in a journal. When they are falling and continue to fall, there is something wrong. When they are increasing and continue to increase, you are doing something right. When they are steady, you are at a plateau.

This is the only protocol for lyme I know which includes Miracle-Mineral-Supplement . Miracle-Mineral-Supplement is used to tackle coinfections though and is not the main part of the treatment.
Also it is not used the way Jim Humble recommends rather it is used in a similar way to the original malaria treatment and not continuously
From what I've read about him Dr Klinghart is very well respected.
I think there is a lot to be learnt from this even if you can't see the man himself
