Re: Information Please
Hi Bethy, I read the posts over "there" where they are,
below are the facts from where I stand, and beware the Sayers of it fixed it,
and it says
Miracle-Mineral-Supplement
put the below in your search and there are 11,000 articles, I have chronic bronchitis right now because of it, and I don't ingest it, I had the flu and used the mouthwash allot more than I normally do and it's irritated my throat with a dry cough.
You cetainly sound smart enough to make your own mind up.
CHLORINE DIOXIDE AND chronic bronchitis,
EXPOSURE LIMITS
* OSHA PEL
The current Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) permissible exposure limit (PEL) for chlorine dioxide is 0.1 ppm (0.3 milligrams per cubic meter (mg/m(3))) as an 8-hour time-weighted average (TWA) concentration [29 CFR 1910.1000, Table Z-1].
* NIOSH REL
The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has established recommended exposure limits (Rules) for chlorine dioxide of ppm (0.3 mg/m(3) as a TWA for up to a 10-hour workday and a hour workweek and a short-term exposure limit (STEL) of 0.3 ppm (0.9 mg/m(3)) [NIOSH 1992].
What effect might chlorine dioxide have on my health?
Acute health effects : The following acute (short-term) health effects may occur immediately or shortly after exposure to chlorine dioxide: irritate the nose and throat, causing coughing and chest pain; eye irritation with watery eyes and seeing halos around lights; breathing chlorine dioxide can irritate the lungs causing coughing and/or shortness of breath. Higher exposures can cause a build-up of fluid in the lungs (pulmonary oedema), a medical emergency but which might not occur for 24 hours, with severe shortness of breath and possibly death.
Chronic health effects : The following chronic (long-term) health effects can occur at some time after exposure to chlorine dioxide and can last for months or years: irritate the lungs; repeated exposure may cause bronchitis to develop with cough, phlegm, and/or shortness of breath. Permanent lung damage may occur, especially with repeated exposure to the vapours. There is limited evidence that chlorine dioxide may damage the developing foetus.
