Having a chronic illness, like MJ, at one time when we first heard about mms we were EXTREMELY excited. I think we were caught up in the hyped up marketing that seemed to permeate every facet of this stuff. Even folks that I knew who are a heck of a lot smarter than myself were looking into this new 'discovery'. Humble and his group marketed it VERY well. He captured an audience, thats for sure.
It didnt take long to realize that what mms really is has been around for a long time, and the claims were bogus and couldnt be proven. I received an email from JH after telling him that our group couldnt really look into mms until we had some clear proof that it worked and wasnt harmful. His reply was rude, demeaning, and looked like he was insulted. His email showed me that he wasnt willing to compromise and accept any opinion other than his own. It looked pretty bizarre to be honest.
The mere fact that he came out with ANOTHER miracle cure (mms2) pretty much says it all I think. I know Tom has had some good results with mms, as well as a few others. But they know the chemical and they know what its potential is. In my opinion, its a dangerous chemical with a deceiving name and little to no merit as a 'MIRACLE' of any kind.

Hello Tony,

The Miracle-Mineral-Supplement protocol is flawed, and due to its high concentration, Miracle-Mineral-Supplement is dangerous to handle. In spite of repeated efforts to discuss this with Jim Humble, he does not seem to be interested in any change or providing verifiable proof that his protocol is the best way to go.

Sodium chlorite solutions and chlorine dioxide solutions are excellent pesticides, sanitizers, bactericides, viricides and disinfectants when mixed and used correctly. They are also excellent for purifying water and waste water. Also, at higher concentrations, they make an excellent bleaching solution.

In some cases I think it can be a cure in that by eliminating the regrowth of mold mildew, staph, and killing bacteria and viruses on communal surfaces prevents you from getting sick in the first place. Also, we are seeing excellent benefits in oral hygiene from using a sodium chlorite mouthwash.

If you have a topical "issue," these solutions can knock the infection down to a point where your body can heal.

However, all bets are off when you start ingesting these chemicals.

The "stabilized oxygen" products have a little "science" going for them, but they involve much lower concentrations than Miracle-Mineral-Supplement . I am actually aware of some studies taking place using ultra low concentrations of sodium chlorite. While it is too early to draw any conclusions, the early results look promising.

If I might add to the problems with using these chemicals...

You mentioned oxidative stress, I will add that the average person is not trained to recognize oxidative stress. This complicates the awareness of adverse effects. Fortunately, these solutions generally make you sick at higher concentrations, so people take steps to reduce the effectiveness of the solution, which also reduces its oxidation potential.

I think you need a background in chemistry in order to safely handle and use these chemicals. It is fortunate that they aren't readily available at the corner drug store. It is too bad that there isn't a handy guide to introduce people to the many benefits and the safe handling of these chemicals. In our house we have stopped using H2O2 (Hydrogen-Peroxid) and have found chlorous acid solutions much more effective.

I posed a question to a gastrointerologist. If you could remove the outer mucous layer of the inside surface of the colon, would there be some benefit in doing so? He told me that in some cases, yes. He continued that it would not be something that would be undertaken lightly, and drinking chlorous acid is probably not the best way to do it, but he did indicate that there could be some benefit. When I read the various success stories, I am reminded of this discussion. In particular, he felt that in the case of a colon infected with malaria, there would be an immediate relief. However, it would not address the malaria in the blood stream. The relief would be short lived and the malaria would continue its progress.

We never did get into the long term use effects...

I agree that health is a result of a healthy lifestyle.

"The true path to healing is to address nutritional deficiencies, eliminate toxins, and adopt a healthy lifestyle."

What he said.

Your opinion's worth so much more than two cents DQ.

I think we've come to a fairly good understanding of Miracle-Mineral-Supplement here over the last year. Supporters who come here to debate are usually new to Miracle-Mineral-Supplement and maybe even new to alternative health. They often argue based on what they've read of Jim Humbles writings, are justifiably angry about the way they've been treated by doctors and they think Jim Humble is a hero for defying the FDA.

The opposers to Miracle-Mineral-Supplement here have been right all along in their stand against Jim Humble
I tried to clarify the facts from fiction from when I first heard about MMS on the ulcerative colitis forum and probably made a bad job of it, but I saw some misleading information coming from both sides when I started debating here

I wasn't keen on it at first but I believed Amato when he reported his success after I'd watched his struggling to cure his UC for a long time. I beleive now after analysing the course both he and I took , that MMS was only a small part of a lot of measures we were taking to get UC into full remission and that I could have acheived the same thing by taking sufficient doses of potassium Iodide or eventually just by continuing on the course I was going with improved nutrition and stress management.

MMS wasn't what kept me symptom free for over a year because I never used it as maintainence
It was all the other things I learned on curezone that did this
I abandoned medical drugs a long time ago and I now regard MMS as just another unecessary chemical burden to the body and it's something I never intend to, nor need to, go back to ingesting again

I hope MMS users will come and read this thread. Someone should give it an R or three since the Rs are making a comeback

I have to agree

Was only 2months ago that i tried this stuff, and lasted maybe 10days. Stopped for xtreme fatigue. I took it for Acne and was very impressed with the results. However, since then i haven't got my strenght back, i have lost weight and the Acne is back. I was already thin but now i am 58kg at 5'9. I'm battling chronic fatigue and i can no longer eat anything with fat like dairy or even a bloody avocado without stomach aches and heading to bed with brain fog and tireness. I have been tested for liver/kindey function and blood tested for vitamins and minerals and all show up fine, yet i have no stregth or energy to do anything. Man this sucks so much.

I know ppl sing it's praises but it's been one of my biggest regrets.
