Sodium Chlorite: Miracle Mineral Supplement

[Michael K.]

What is MMS?:

MMS is Sodium Chlorite (NaClO2) activated with citric acid.  It can be used in many ways which greatly contribute to health and sanitation.  This chemical is table salt with an Oxygen diatom bonded to it.  When activated by the citric acid, many different chemicals are generated, but one of the main ones is Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2). This chemical  is approved by the FDA for food contact use as a treatment for pathogens on meat and vegetables, and as a water purifier.  It is also used to clean in surgical rooms where no residues are allowed.  In all, this simple mineral has a whole host of good uses, but the most undervalued of all is in fighting pathogens and other types of toxicity such a heavy metals, in the human body.

Why should I own MMS?

1.)  As a water purifier it is fast, simple, effective, inexpensive and does not hurt the taste of the water like iodode, for example, and is non-toxic to the body.

To use as a water puifier, activate 1 drop of MMS with citric acid in the bottom of a clean, dry water vessel of non-metallic material, wait for the reaction to start (30 sec-3min.) add water to the drops and shake with lid on loosely to wash threads a bit.  Wait 15 min.  Voila! No giardia, cholera, liver flukes, etc...  Two 2 oz trail size leak proof Nalgene bottles [ http://www.freundcontainer.com/nalgene- ... v312089-1/], each with orifice reducers, will hold approx 100 doses and dispense them as drops, potentially purifying 100 gallons.

2.)  As first aid for burns, it can reduce the severity and healing time of a burn by up to 75%:

Any burn should be sprayed with full strength MMS (no acid added) directly from a small spray bottle. Do not add citric acid or lemon juice at all. If you don't have a spray bottle available apply MMS directly onto the burn, making sure the area is soaked with MMS.

Wait up to five minutes, but no longer before rinsing off. If you fail to rinse off, the burn will continue to hurt. On the other hand if you do rinse within 5 minutes the burn will heal in 1/4 the time normally required to heal. This includes all those terrible skin and flesh burns and it will save lives. The pain should stop immediately or reduce to almost zero within several minutes.

Sunburns should be treated the same way. Spray the red area, wait 1 to 5 minutes, and rinse off. If the area is still sore, in about an hour spray the area again and wait 5 minutes before rinsing off. Remember, do not allow the MMS to stay in place. It must be rinsed off. The pain should be gone in a couple of minutes. Generally two doses will overcome most sunburns, but on rare occasions if the discomfort is not all gone you can use a third dose. Be sure to rinse it off.

Note that MMS is alkaline and the burns need the alkalinity of the MMS to neutralize the acidity that resides in the burned areas. This is part of the reason why burns heal rapidly after the MMS applications.

3.)  As a health supplement in case of the flu or other acute infection or contagion, its use supports the bodies own immune system by killing pathogens inside the body.

Suggested Procedure for Using MMS as a Flu Deterrent or Remedy:

1. In a cup or glass mix 1 drop of MMS with 5 drops of unfiltered vinegar or fresh lemon juice. Swirl and wait three minutes for activation to be completed.

2. .Add ½ glass of water or juice that does not have added ascorbic acid or vitamin C (Vitamin C prevents proper functions of this solution). Drink this whole amount as quickly as possible.

3. If you felt absolutely no change during this first hour, go ahead and go to 2 drops on the second hour. (Always use 5 drops of vinegar or lemon juice for each drop of MMS, and of course, the three minute wait) Go to 3 drops on the third hour if you have not felt any change in nausea) The nausea is not bad. It indicates that the MMS is killing pathogens. But do not cause yourself nausea by taking more. Over time increase to a maximum of 6 drops MMS with 30 drops of the acid. If you weigh over 200 pounds then 10 drops might be the maximum.

Keep in mind that most people will not go over 3 or 4 drops an hour before they begin to feel added nausea. Upon any sensation of nausea, they must reduce the number of drops by at least one drop. Nausea occurs when MMS is killing germs and viruses faster than your elimination system can handle the debris. There is no benefit in tolerating nausea.

4. Continue taking MMS each hour for 12 hours. The flu should be gone by the end of 12 hours; however, in any case, do not stop taking MMS until you are sure you have recovered. If you still feel flu symptoms the next day be sure to continue on the same hourly doses. Children can have the same treatment except be extra cautious to prevent nausea or sick feeling. Do this by using smaller doses. Increase by 1/2 drop each time and never go above 3 drops an hour.

5. Continue to take a six drop dose twice a day for the next week or two.

6. To prevent the flu and maintain you immune system in top condition take one 6 drop dose of MMS every day for adults and children should take a dose each day depending upon their age or size. Use 1 drop for each 25 pounds of body weight, and 1 drop for babies.

4.)  In support of the immune system in the case of chronic, long term "incurable" conditions such as cancer, AIDS, Hepatitis, etc. or where detoxification of the body is needed.  Here one follows a protocol called the "1000"

Enjoy this new way of taking MMS that tastes better and is more subtle to stomach. It works
because we are buffering the pH to 5.2 to reduce acidity.  

Recipe: (SHELF LIFE OF THIS IS 30 DAYS)

Use a one quart or one liter container with lid & markings on the side as needed (keep
refrigerated and out of sunlight). You can also use 4 oz or 120 ml measuring cup to pour into at
each use. Add:

• 24 drops MMS (28%)
• 24 drops citric acid (50%) or 120 drops lemon juice or 10 % citric acid
• mix by swirling (activate) exactly 20 seconds or (3 minutes with lemon or 10 %
citric)
• add one quart or one liter distilled water(pH 5 to 6) mix (do not add alkaline water)
• add 1/8 US teaspoon (0.6ml) baking soda (Bicarbonate of soda) to mix then stir
well (use aluminum free)

Metric equivalents of this recipe:

• 4 oz (120 ml) = 3 drops activated MMS (same as protocol 1000)
• 2 oz (60 ml) = 1.5 drops MMS
• 1 oz (30 ml) = 0.75 drops MMS

To Start: Take 2 oz. (60 ml) four times day and work up to higher amounts and frequency as
needed. Taking 4 oz. (120 ml) hourly for 8 hours is equal to 3 drops hourly of MMS, the same
as protocol 1000. Always stop short of diarrhea, nausea, vomiting or unwanted effect.

To Start if child or sensitive adult: Children or adults very sensitive can start at 1oz (30 ml) 4
times daily and work up slowly if needed. Always stop short of diarrhea, nausea, vomiting or
unwanted effect.

Monitor and adjust as needed:

• Stay at each amount for 2 to 3 days before increasing so that if unwanted symptoms
arise you can go back to a safe known level.
• Always stop short of diarrhea, nausea, vomiting or unwanted symptoms.
• If you need to reduce your amount, then you can take smaller amount more often or the
same amount less often.
• We are finding that a low steady amount is all some people need. Some conditions may
need an initial higher amount and then a lower amount for continual use.
• ALWAYS DRINK 8 GLASSES OF GOOD WATER DAILY FOR HYDRATION & DETOX
If taste is still undesirable then add one drop peppermint oil to each 4 oz at the time of usage. It
is much better to mix up the whole quart than to try and mix individual uses. The optimal pH is
5.2 but the range of 5.0-5.5 should be acceptable.

Recipe changes: If you change the recipe amount of 24 drops of MMS, then you will need to
adjust the amount of baking soda as needed to bring the pH to 5.2 or into the range of 5 to 5.5
pH. If you need to take an amount that is larger than 3 drops of MMS, then you can simply drink
a larger amount of the recipe mix. Eight ounces (240 ml) would equal a 6 drop dose of MMS.

been evaluated by the FDA. Consult physician prior to use.

The fundamentals of using MMS:

The Fundamentals for using MMS are These:

Fundamental One:
Repeated small doses are more effective than large morning and evening doses. It has been demonstrated more than 1000 times that small doses administered often, up to once each hour, are more effective than large doses administered once or twice a day.

We now know that the chlorine dioxide chemical generated by MMS does not remain in the body more than one or two hours at most. The size of the dose does not seem to make a great deal of difference to the amount of time that MMS remains active in the body. That basically is because it doesn't matter if it is a large amount or small amount it still deteriorates into mostly just table salt in an hour or two.

So in reading the various methods of using MMS elsewhere on this web site, keep in mind - it is going to be much more effective to take MMS either each hour, or each two hours, and with smaller doses that will be equal to - or maybe larger than - one large dose.

If you are in the habit of taking larger MMS doses only in the morning and evening as was suggested in the past, MMS will still cleanse the body of microbes and pathogens. However, new research clearly reveals that a smaller-but-continuous circulation of ClO2 prevents regrouping and reproduction of pathogens, especially in situations where you are fighting a specific health issue - whether a cold or herpes or hepatitis.

After you are cleaned out a maintenance dose is still the same as always, 6 drops a day of MMS along with the citric or other acids required for activation. That's for older people and 6 drops twice a week for younger people, older people being over 60.

Fundamental Two:
Decrease the number of drops as needed if diarrhea or nausea occur, but do not stop taking MMS. Nausea and diarrhea are both good indicator signs that MMS is working. Diarrhea lasting for an hour or two is very good, but to keep it up for any amount of  time can cause more harm than good. So always decrease the drops when these temporary barriers arise - they are temporary in most cases. .

Fundamental Three:
Never take more than 3 drops and hour unless in a life threatening condition. In the case of life threatening situation use protocol 2000.

Fundamental Four:
Avoid all forms of Vitamin C for two hours before and after use of MMS. This is a temporary requirement, necessary during the significant weeks of your ramping up to the level of drops where you can be considered to be "Cleaned Out." If you are taking Vitamin C capsules marked as "12 hour" type, you will have to discontinue their use and only take capsules or tablets that do not indicate a timed action and take them only at night after MMS hours.

Fundamental Five:
Thoughtfully maintain a nutrition program adequate to maintain your immune system. MMS takes unwanted pathogens and parasites out of your body with great efficiency but it provides no nutritional minerals or vitamins. Maintain intake of friendly micro-organisms (acidophilus, and other flora). MMS itself does not kill intestinal friendly micro-organisms but forceful diarrhea can sometimes reduce their numbers. Similarly, maintain intake of minerals - especially calcium and magnesium.

Nutritional intake is critical to the immune system. Daily sunshine on the skin will maintain your vitamin D or, if you rarely see the sun, you must maintain "D" with supplements - - essential for maintaining the immune system. While MMS is the most potent germicidal agent on the planet, only the immune system produces healing and maintenance of health. Read my books on this topic, available at  http://MiracleMineral.org/book.php

The five fundamentals above are basic to all the various methods and protocols that are explained on this Web Site. Be sure to click through to the various specific protocols that are highlighted below.

Six proven ways to move MMS into your body.

1. Drink it. Swallow activated MMS with any amount of water or juice flavoring added. This is the most common method. Adding water or limited juice to the mix after the three minute wait enables you to drink the mixture. The amount of water matters very little provided that you drink it all - typically one half to a full glass of water. If you drink the entire amount you will get all of the MMS benefit. Diluted little or much it will still do the same cleansing within in your body.

After the three minute wait, when you add water or juice, no more chlorine dioxide is generated. It is locked into the water or juice. After drinking the mix with the water added, the ClO2 gas will circulate in the body for less than two hours as described above. Insignificant amounts of ClO2 are generated after the water is added, but not enough to consider.

You could repeat any MMS dose every two hours (or less) without harm provided you observe the temporary barriers created by diarrhea or nausea.  

2. You can spray activated MMS on skin anywhere. It is effective against localized skin sores or diseases. The mixture must have a small amount of water added to make the liquid ready for spraying. It does not bleach hair and does not harm the skin. If you have open sores or cuts, it may cause sensations of burning but it promotes rapid germ-free closure of wounds.  

3. MMS retention enemas are effective in cleansing intestinal walls. They also cause the ClO2 to be absorbed and mixed with the plasma of the blood - the blood liquid. MMS benefits are more available to more parts of the body more quickly when the ClO2 is carried in the plasma.  

4. Hot tub baths with activated MMS in the water expose the entire skin surface to ClO2 ions. Add hot water continually while sitting in the tub. Skin pores open and the ClO2 ions pass deep below the skin and into muscles. Since blood is always present in muscles, the ClO2 ions merge into the plasma of the blood providing greater concentration of detoxifying action against parasites, yeast, fungus and other pathogens.

5. Some people briefly breath the ClO2 gas into the nose, head, and sinuses. DO NOT DEEPLY BREATH the ClO2 gas into the lungs because damage can happen to the lungs without you feeling it. Later you will find that you can almost not breathSitting with your mouth or nose over a cup of activated 2 drop mixture (definitely no more than 2 drops), and with no water added, draw the odorous ClO2 gas into the nostrils or mouth. Approach this with caution. If it seems too strong move the cup further away or prepare a weaker mixture. The first time should be no more that two small breaths until you feel a tiny "Bite."This has proven effective in killing germs in the sinuses that are often the cause of post-nasal drip. One or two brief nasal breathing session have been reported to eliminate post-nasal drip after all other medicines had failed to stop it.

Caution: If you have any history of asthma, use low doses and stop immediately if you have any sensation of an asthma attack. Never exceed the 4 drop maximum. This method is effective in situations where sinuses, vocal cords, or ear infections are retaining germs or pathogens.

Remember, it is the ClO2 Ion - the gas that you can smell - that is the germicidal agent. Use a 2 to 4 drop dose activated with 5 drops of citric acid or vinegar for each drop of MMS that you use. There's no need to add water since you won't be drinking it. Germs live and thrive in MUCUS and PHLEHM. The odor of ClO2 can kill them and prevent further production of mucus.

NOTE: Some people report "catching a cold" when using this method. Yes, there can be strong mucus films in your lungs from a cold you had a year ago known as Biofilm. Biofilm is also known in industry.  Germs are sometimes encapsulated in the hardened but live mucus. The ClO2 gas weakens the mucus and the former cold germs excape. In this case, continue with internal 2 drop doses of activated MMS every hour (drink it), and continue deep breathing every four hours from the cup (Observe the limits and cautions above). The cold will soon vanish.  

CAUTION: DO NOT EXCEED the 4 drop maximum mixture and take one one or two breaths. You can always mix a second dose later if you want more time span. Bird cages and free-flying house birds should be kept in another room because of their sensitivity to various gases. HEED THESE CAUTIONS. You are responsible for using this strategy responsibly so avoid prolonged deep breathing of the ClO2 gas, always separated with deep breathing of normal air.

6. DMSO can sometimes be added to the MMS activated mix in special or life-threatening situations. Special DMSO instructions are located under the 3000 protocol.  Always test yourself first with a small DMSO spot on your arm. People who have a damaged or weakened liver should reduce the use of DMSO if any aching or pain is felt in the liver area. Put 1 or 2 drops of DMSO on your arm and rub it in. Wait for several hours. If there is no liver pain, you are probably safe in using DMSO.

One tablespoon of DMSO with two or more tablespoons of water can be taken internally by drinking it once or twice a day while fighting a severe disease. Normally use juice and dilute the DMSO much more. A 50-50 dilution will burn most people's throat. It's best to dilute DMSO with at least 2 parts water or juice to 1 part DMSO. Important additional DMSO information is in two articles at  http://MMS-articles.com/ .

Caution One: DO NOT ATTEMPT any experimental intravenous injections in your home. There are health clinics that can administer such therapies. Seek qualified professionals who can take responsibility for proper dosage, administration, and predictable outcomes from any IV process. Health clinics may charge up to $100 per intravenous treatment. Intravenous provides about the same benefits as methods 4 and 5 above, but at a high cost.

Caution Two: If you choose to put activated MMS into a dehumidifier or room fogger, keep the MMS mixture at no more than 20 activated drops per gallon of water. (Must be activated in a cup with the three minute wait before dropping it into the water tank.) People have written asking about this. They want to use the humidifier because ClO2 is a powerful deodorizer and air purifier. Remove canaries and parrots from the room.

It is best not to sleep in the room where the humidifier is fogging the room with ClO2 in the mix. Your lungs pick up the ClO2 gas (which is beneficial) just as readily as they pick up oxygen. While the ClO2 is received willingly by your lungs and red blood cells, you could unknowingly reduce oxygen intake and suffer harm. Remember this also if children are playing or sleeping in the same room. A limited amount of ClO2 in the air would be helpful for children and adults, but only if alert people are present and are knowledgeable about the nature of ClO2 as a germicidal agent.

It is equally effective to rid a closet or room of mold, odors, or germs if you set a 50 drop mix of activated MMS on a saucer in the middle of a closed room and let the ClO2 gas arise out of the liquid naturally. Do not add any water in this case. Do not exceed the 10 drop suggestion. It's more effective and safer to do several repeated room cleansings every hour than to release too much ClO2 at one time into a closed room. The odor does not linger and will not harm cushions, curtains, or lampshades. After 2 hours, the odor will have sacrificed itself and any room odors will be gone. If the normal small from shoes and clothes in a closet are still present, then a second ClO2 saucer or cup should be repeated.

ClO2 gas is a powerful deodorizer and germicidal agent. Drifting through the air, it will eventually kill all germs in the air and in furniture fabrics. After about two hours, the ClO2 gas disappears. It deteriorates into two molecules of water vapor. Activated MMS can restore lawn chairs thought to be ruined by skunk spray. Scrub the MMS mixture into car carpets, smelly shoes, and under arms. Will the whole house start to smell like a motel swimming pool? No. Not possible.

When using MMS as a room deodorizer or fungus eliminator, close the room doors and remove all pets and birds from the room for one or two hours.

Caution Three: Regarding Citric Acid: It is unusual to experience any nausea when starting MMS with a one drop dose. if you experience nausea after taking the first one-drop dose of MMS, it's rare, but you may be allergic to citric acid at the 10% solution strength. To quickly stop the nausea, wait ten minutes, then counter it with a teaspoon of baking soda in water if the nausea persists. Also eat an apple if you can keep it down. Wait overnight, then try a one-drop dose again, but use unfiltered and unpasteurized apple cider vinegar as the acid instead of citric acid.

It is very rare, but a few people are allergic to 10% citric acid in water, even though they may easily tolerate weak forms of it as in lemonade. The solution is to adopt unfiltered vinegar as the acid of choice because it is non-allergenic. Therefore try MMS again using unfiltered unpasteurized vinegar as the activating acid and slowly ramp upward in the number of drops.

It never fails, when something works as good as MMS the fda steps in, MMS is cutting profits to the drug companies and the fda is their watch dog!

- MMS on Trial -
Grand Jury to Determine
the Fate of
Daniel Smith (and MMS)

 
A man's life - and that of his friends and family - hangs in the balance.  They need our immediate help.  The FDA's prosecutor has called for a federal grand jury to be convened in the Eastern District of Washington in less than ten days. We don't have much time to make history.

Please take a stand to help save MMS and Daniel Smith from the FDA: http://mmsnews.org/component/acymailing ... 77929.html
The FDA seeks to have the courts declare MMS a "drug" subject to regulation by the FDA and to charge Daniel Smith of Project GreenLife and others with violations of Title 18 Section 371, "Conspiracy to commit an offense against the United States" in violation of The Food Drug and Cosmetic Act.

On June 29, 2011, without any warning, the FDA raided Daniel Smith's home along with two companies that did Project GreenLife's fulfillment and bottling.
Armed with guns and vests, they seized everything: computers, hard drives, business records, private member records, product, equipment, and every penny from every bank account, wiping Project GreenLife out all in a single afternoon.  Not a bad day's work for a stealthy yearlong operation.

Project GreenLife was a 1st and 14th Amendment Private Membership Association.  As Trustee, Daniel wrote the FDA a year prior, asking if the agency had any legal and valid objection to making MMS available to private members in the private domain.
 
By the help and counsel of the ProAdvocate Group, Daniel based his inquiry on a good-faith understanding of U.S. Supreme Court case law as it pertained to the activities of a private association.  Daniel told the FDA unless they objected within ten days he would assume they had no objection.

While they could have just replied, they didn't, leaving Daniel to believe he was free to go about his business.  In the meanwhile, FDA agents spent a year quietly going through his garbage, putting GPS tracking devices on his cars, having agents sign membership contracts affirming they were not federal agents so they could make fraudulent buys.
 
Slowly and methodically they gathered enough information to craft a story that would shock a Magistrate into granting them nearly a hundred warrants so they could completely wipe Project GreenLife out all in a single day. They wanted to teach Daniel Smith a lesson, limit the availability of MMS to the world, and make sure nobody else tried exercising their constitutional rights.

Daniel has been fighting for his life and the lives of his people for ten months with very little resources and without an attorney.  He's kept everything under wraps until now.

If the FDA wins this case, it would result in a horrible precedent by an uninformed court's determination that MMS and sodium chlorite are "drugs" subject to regulatory oversight, and Daniel and others may go to prison for a very long time.

But they've underestimated the MMS Movement.  We have a chance to turn it all around and stop this before it goes any further.  Both a grand jury and trial jury can put an end to the tyranny of rogue agencies like the FDA with what is called "Jury Nullification".

Google those words and share what you learn.  If we band together, Jury Nullification could be the end of corrupt government.

Prosecutors, judges, and agencies like the FDA are terrified of the words "Jury Nullification" because it educates jurors of their right and power to decide what is and isn't a "just" law, placing the real Power back into the hands of the People where it belongs.

This is how the prohibition on alcohol was repealed in America in 30's.  Juries simply refused to convict because the law was unjust.

Harlan F. Stone, the 12th Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court in 1941 said: "The law itself is on trial quite as much as the cause which is to be decided...
If a juror feels that the statute involved in any criminal offence is unfair, or that it infringes upon the defendant's natural god-given unalienable or constitutional rights, then it is his duty to affirm that the offending statute is really no law at all and that the violation of it is no crime at all, for no one is bound to obey an unjust law."

Juries are made of people like you and me.  They aren't dumb and they can see through greedy government charades if they are provided with enough facts.
The facts in this case are sodium chlorite is not a drug, the FDA has no jurisdiction, and Daniel Smith and Project GreenLife are not criminals.  The problem is, grand juries tend to only hear the prosecutor's version of the story, and trial juries rarely hear the evidence that would acquit.  

However, a prosecutor is obligated to share "exculpatory evidence" and we can help with that!  

The jury needs to hear that sodium chlorite is not a drug, that chlorine dioxide, privately made, is perfectly safe to use, and that the FDA is overreaching!
They also need to know that Daniel Smith and his people are not criminals.  They need to hear they (the jury) have the power to put an end to the FDA's 110 year reign of sickness and terror.

Here is a link to Sample Declarations you can download and read.  If you agree, and you are willing to take a stand for Daniel and his family, and for MMS, and to tell the government and the FDA to BACK OFF, and to help the Jury get reacquainted with their true Power; then simply SIGN AND SEND!

Follow the instructions for 10,000 Declarations on IAmNotAnAnimal.org.  It will cost only the money and time it takes to mail and you could help make history and save more lives.  I doubt any court or jury has received thousands of testimonies like this, until now.

Every declaration counts.  Don't think other people will send enough that yours won't matter.  If everyone thinks that, no one will send anything, and Daniel Smith and his family will be left to the sharks and the tyranny will continue.

PGL helped the MMS movement grow by making MMS available all over the world for over four years.  They gave half of every bottle sold back to those who shared it.  Here is our chance to support them in return and get the truth about MMS and the FDA on the Record!

Remember, we have less than ten days.  Let's see if we can get 10,000 Declarations sent THIS weekend.

It starts with yours!

The FDA wants jurisdiction over your kitchen!
Posted in Deadly Politics by R Lee Wrights on August 26th, 2010

by Mary J. Ruwart

"Since the FDA only has jurisdiction over compounds involved in 'interstate commerce,' they have no jurisdiction over our kitchens—yet.  Should my client lose this case, however, the FDA will have set a precedent to invade the privacy of our homes."

- Attorney Nancy Lord, M.D.

Daniel Smith is between the proverbial "rock and a hard place."  For the last couple of years, he has been selling "MMS Professional," a high-quality sodium chlorite solution used to purify water. He has also been selling citric acid, a food acid similar to that found in lime or lemon juice.

Daniel also sold books, CDs and DVDs produced by others that explained how mixing sodium chlorite and citric acid produce chlorine dioxide, a chemical commonly used to purify water.  Chlorine dioxide also is an effective mouthwash (Compendium of Continuing Education in Dentistry Vol.21, pp. 241-248, 2000).

The books, CDs and DVDs claim that chlorine dioxide, when ingested at appropriate doses, may kill the parasite that produces malaria, as well as other disease-causing bacteria and viruses, such as the ones that are responsible for hepatitis, typhoid, MRSA, pneumonia, bronchial infections, and perhaps even HIV virus associated with AIDS.  The material claims that there are over 75,000 documented cases of chlorine dioxide's effectiveness against malaria alone.

In these days of high medical costs, a potential antiseptic that is inexpensive and can be made at home is certainly noteworthy.  Safety studies with chlorine dioxide, undertaken in the 1980s because the compound is widely used in municipal water treatment system, raised no red flags (Environmental Health Perspectives Vol. 46, pp. 57-62, 1982). The FDA is concerned because chlorine dioxide, taken in excess, can cause diarrhea and dehydration.  These are side effects that many FDA-approved drugs have, as well as over-the-counter Vitamin C and magnesium.  Presumably, a person faced with such symptoms would simply decrease their dose.

So why is Daniel being threatened with the possibility of criminal charges and years in prison?  The FDA claims that Daniel was "marketing a new, unapproved drug with labeling."

However, Daniel was NOT selling chlorine dioxide, but the components that make it. The FDA, however, claims that Daniel is selling a new drug (chlorine dioxide) that has not gone through its regulatory process which costs, on average, over $1 billion dollars and takes 15 years of testing and evaluation. This is how potentially inexpensive treatments, already used by thousands of people, become so high priced.

The actual label on the bottle of sodium chlorite clearly states that it is to be used for water purification.  Nevertheless, the FDA is calling the books, CDs, and DVDs that Daniel was selling "labeling" of the supposed new drug that customers make from sodium chlorite and citric acid.  All such alleged "labeling" must be approved by the FDA.

What about free speech and the First Amendment?  Well, the FDA doesn't believe that the First Amendment applies to "commercial speech."  All of the side effects that come at the end of pharmaceutical commercials are dictated by the FDA, which reviews every single ad produced by a drug manufacturer.

In theory, the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA) exempts supplements from the FDA approval process to some extent.  Chlorine dioxide, however, is not a supplement, but a water purifier, so it apparently isn't protected.

The FDA asked Daniel to "voluntarily" recall his product.  He did so in the hopes of avoiding further harassment and possible prosecution.  "Many customers tell me that they won't return the products because they love them so much," Daniel told me.  "Quite a few, though, are angry at me for not fighting the FDA.  They don't realize I have a beautiful six year old daughter that needs her father to be present while she's growing up."

Daniel's attorney, Nancy Lord, the 1992 Libertarian Party Vice Presidential candidate, has advised Daniel against relying on the so-called "justice system" to vindicate him.  "Anything can happen in the courtroom," Dr. Lord explained.

Dr. Lord has a point.  Years ago, she called me in as an expert witness in another case.  The prosecutor convinced the judge to limit my testimony so much that I couldn't get in any of our relevant points.  Miraculously, the prosecutor then asked me questions which opened the door to the very points he had excluded. The jury did not convict the client on any of the 16 counts.  However, that was a very close call for the client.  Daniel's clients should be aware that the judicial branch of government is not necessarily even-handed when the plaintiff is another governmental agency.

"Besides potential prison time for Daniel, this case could set a dangerous precedent," Dr. Lord explained.  "Will all vendors be held accountable for the way a customer uses their products or combines them to make something entirely different?  Daniel isn't selling what the FDA is calling a 'new drug.'  The customers are making chlorine dioxide in their kitchens.  Since the FDA only has jurisdiction over compounds involved in 'interstate commerce,' they have no jurisdiction over our kitchens—yet.  Should Daniel lose this case, however, the FDA will have set a precedent to invade the privacy of our homes."

"The problem," Daniel explained, "is that most customers don't understand why the FDA is demanding a recall.  They think that something is wrong with the product or that it is unsafe in some way. They don't understand that the FDA's real complaint is the information which I sold. It teaches people how to make chlorine dioxide to kill pathogens in the privacy of their own home.  The FDA calls this 'labeling.'"

The FDA's interpretation of "labeling" stems from the passage of the 1962 Amendments to the Food and Drug Act.  Before that time, the FDA did not interfere with the sale of anything that was "safe for its intended use."  The Amendments, however, insisted that the FDA evaluate drug effectiveness and gave it unprecedented control over the entire drug development process.  As a result, the FDA has insisted that no claim of effectiveness be made unless a drug went through an exhaustive—and continuously expanding— testing process.  By the 1990s, the Amendments had added about 10 years to the development time of drugs.

The added decade of development time meant that the average new drug took 15 years to get to market.  The terminally ill couldn't wait that long.  AIDS patients hired black market chemists to make the very drugs that pharmaceutical companies were testing (Kwitny's Acceptable Risks, New York: Poseidon Press, c1992.).  By the time the firm where I was working had FDA permission to test its first AIDS drug in people, every patient in the U.S. that wanted it already had taken it.  In order to do the FDA-mandated testing, we had to wait until new patients were diagnosed.

Cancer patients became so frustrated that they sued the FDA for permission to buy new cancer drugs from pharmaceutical firms before their effectiveness had been fully established according to FDA guidelines. However, the courts ruled that even the terminally ill had no constitutional right to use drugs not yet approved by the FDA!

Thankfully, Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX), the Libertarian Party's 1988 presidential nominee, has introduced two health freedom bills to insure that such atrocities don't continue.   Patients, along with their doctors, should be able to choose what's best for them.  They should not have to enter the black market to get their treatments.  Vendors like Daniel Smith should not have to face prison for selling books along with a couple of chemicals that customers combine and use in the privacy of their own home.

Health care freedom is literally a matter of life and death.  Go to the link in the above paragraph and support health care freedom.  The life you save may be your own!

The difference between MMS and industrial dioxin bleach: NACLO2- and NACLO2+

http://phaelosopher.com/tag/jim-humble/

[Grant]knows the difference between the product that the FDA issued a warning about and mislabeled as "MMS," and the real thing. He was exposed to chlorine dioxide at a pulp mill where he worked in British Columbia, which resulted in severe respiratory distress. This condition was resolved when he discovered a product that features the chlorite matrix, that we know as "MMS."

... He estimates that it took him nearly 500 hours of digging into the science of the chlorite matrix before he found WF10...

...I learned that MMS is just one way, and perhaps the most economical, to avail one's self of the chlorite matrix. Two others are DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) and MSM (methylsulfonylmethane).


The Chlorite Matrix

According to US Patent 6086922, which was filed in March 19, 1993 and issued July 11, 2000, the chlorite matrix is an isotonic solution containing 5 to 100 mMol ClO2- per liter of solution. The "minus" sign is important, because it distinguishes whether conditions are ripe for the tragic and the magic. Our FDA, in its efforts to "protect" the public, has described the positively charged version. Truth is, I didn't understand this subtle distinction until Grant brought it to my attention.

Notice a second patent, 5019402, that was awarded to Alcide Corporation in 1990, for a product formed by adding "a chlorine dioxide liberating compound to a weak organic acid and a heat activated saccharide." This was to safely disinfect blood.

There are roughly 20 other petitioners listed on the page that reference the Alcide patent. The list includes Proctor & Gamble, and Cancer Technologies, Inc., with a method for deactivating HIV infected blood. NONE of these applications suggest that the end products are dangerous. Yet, with all the great intention behind these products, it appears that, to date, the FDA has not granted approval to any of them.
