Re: How long?

Hello Infinitelove,

This is a very interesting question that is hard to answer.

The most studied use of chlorine dioxide is for the purification of drinking water. There have been a lot of studies with animals, and some studies with humans, trying to set acceptable levels of residuals in water.

Keep in mind that people drink a lot of water, and continue to drink it from birth to death. This is a little different than following the Miracle-Mineral-Supplement protocol.

In these studies, the concentration of the dose is increased until they get to the point where there is an observable adverse effect. Over the course of several studies, the lowest observable adverse effect level is set.

In rats, this LOAEL works out to about 1.5 drops Miracle-Mineral-Supplement per kilogram of body weight per day.

The studies go on to explore the concentration where no observable adverse effects occur.

In rats, this NOAEL works out to about 0.3 drops Miracle-Mineral-Supplement per kilogram of body weight per day.

Since human bodies are a little different from rats, there is a conversion factor applied to translate the information from the rat studies to human application. What ended up happening is that the NOAEL level was divided by 100, and that is what is called a reference level that is safe for humans in drinking water.

As you can see, the evidence so far indicates that the MMS protocol would be better for short durations. Until we have further information, that's about the best I can come up with.

On the other hand, some people have been following the MMS protocol for months. If they took the time to get blood tests before they started, and have had follow up test, they may be able to give their results as to if there were any observable changes in the blood, nerves, brain, or thyroid functioning.
