Re: Oxidized Cholesterol

Alright, here is some real information for those of you interested in the efficacy of Miracle-Mineral-Supplement . I have had Chronic Fatigue Syndrome for 12 years. Today is my 13th day on Miracle-Mineral-Supplement protocol. I had my blood tested before Miracle-Mineral-Supplement therapy, and on the 5th day of MMS therapy. Here are the good results:

1) CO2 levels were too high before MMS, now they are on the low end of the reference range as of Day Five(30 down to 23). This would seem to indicate that the oxidation process is helping to remove cellular waste from the bloodstream faster.

2) The white blood cells known as neutrophils were too high before, and came down from 64 to 58. I see this as a good sign, since neutrophils are elevated when dealing with infection or inflammation. It seems that the ClO2 took some of the burden of dealing with the chronic infection, so that the white blood cells didn't have to come to bat as much. This is a very good sign, as it indicates relieved pressure on the immune system.

3) Lipoprotein (a), which is a form of LDL cholesterol, came down from 32 to 25. This was also an excellent reading for me, as elevated Lp (a) values are linked to disease. {By the way, that Lp (a) blood-test is a special test which you have to ask for. It is not included on your standard blood chemistry panel}. LDL cholesterol also came down from 93 to 85.

4) Uric acid also came down from 4.9 to 4.0; (this seems like it may be an improvement, altho I'm not sure).

5) Alkaline Phosphatase also came down from 88 to 78, which seems to be a good thing, as elevated alk phos levels are seen in diseased states.

6) Kidney function appeared to still be working fine after MMS usage, and the values went down, in fact, which means they are working better than they were before! BUN from 16 to 14, and Creatinine Serum from 0.75 to 0.68.

7) Liver function appeared to be more or less un-impaired after five days of MMS, with LDH values only rising from 141 to 153. So maybe there was a little bit of hepatic cell die-off due to handling the extra eliminative load, but not enough to be concerned.

Now for the bad news:

1) The iron levels in the blood increased drastically, from 112 to 173. I don't know where this excess iron is coming from. If it is a result of healthy red blood cells being oxidized, this is a bad sign. If it is merely a result of the diseased red-blood cells being oxidized, then I would have to assume the MMS is doing its job. Even so, it can't be good for the body to have excess iron in the bloodstream. Excess iron is toxic.

2) Besides iron, it appears that the "good" cholesterol was oxidized as well as the "bad," since HDL cholesterol went down from 76 to 47. I don't believe this is a good sign. Yes, total cholesterol went down, but the HDL cholesterol is necessary for normal functioning. The LDL's is want we want to go down, not the HDL.

These seem to be my main concerns. I certainly don't want to be killing off healthy red-blood cells, and I don't want to kill off the good cholesterol. Also, I have read many articles on the web stating that oxidized LDL cholesterol in the bloodstream is a bad thing, and can harm the body. So far, my opinion is that ClO2 supplementation has both good and bad effects. The only reason why I am still using it, is that the ClO2 appears to have gradually killed off my desire for doughnuts. I have suffered from terrible junk-food cravings as a result of this illness, and I am happy that I don't have to eat so much now. I had another blood-test done yesterday, which was Day Twelve of my MMS therapy. I will be getting the results back tomorrow, and I'll be happy to share those with anyone interested. If neutrophils, and Lp(a) continue to decrease, I will PROBABLY continue MMS therapy.
