Question 1

What is MMS?

Accepted Answer

MMS is a 22.4% solution of sodium chlorite in distilled water, when mixed with any one of several food grade acids it produces chlorine dioxide which is highly effective in eliminating toxins and disease pathogens in the body. It does this by a process of oxidation.

Question 2

Does MMS cure?

Accepted Answer

Many people say MMS cures this or that. But in fact, MMS does not cure disease. MMS kills pathogens and destroys (oxidizes) poisons. When pathogens and poisons in the body are reduced or eliminated, then the body can function properly and thereby heal. The body heals the body. MMS helps to line things up so the body can do just that.

Question 3

Why do I need to take MMS/CDS?

Accepted Answer

There are two basic reasons for doing the HRP (Health Recovery Plan):

1. To eradicate a disease and recover your health.
2. For cleansing purposes, to detox and thus get rid of poisons in the body, which can then help clear up a number of health problems both small and large.

If you have a disease of most any kind then the decision is simple. What you want to do is eliminate the disease.

When someone is sick, and especially if they are seriously sick, it is a good time for the person to stop and examine various things, such as their diet and lifestyle. Eating right, exercising right, and living right all contribute to
good health.

While good nutrition is important for the body to get well, when someone is on the protocols described in this book, it can actually be helpful to avoid taking nutritional supplements for a time. This is because pathogens also feed on good nutrition, so in a sense, if you are taking nutritional supplements while the pathogens are still alive, you are building up with one hand and tearing down with the other. In addition, some nutritional supplements neutralize MMS.

This is especially true with cancer, and a number of major diseases—when you begin the protocols it is not the time to simultaneously be building up with an increase of extra nutritional supplements. In these cases, I would suggest that it is best to forgo taking supplements for two to three weeks, and possibly up to several weeks, depending on the situation. Because as I said, cancer cells and other pathogens can feed off good nutrition. You don’t want to do anything to encourage cancer or other diseases to live longer or multiply. The idea is to starve and kill the disease, not give it more to thrive on.

​If you have a major disease, as mentioned above, suspend or do not start any supplements as you begin taking MMS—try to give it time to sufficiently destroy the pathogens before adding in supplements. On the other hand, if you really feel the need for some type of supplements that you know are good, or you have already tried, you may want to add them in at some point (as suggested above, I would say not before two to three weeks for major diseases) and see how you do.

It is imperative to pay close attention to how your body is reacting. If you are feeling good and doing better with the addition of a supplement(s), then continue. Do not change as long as you are improving. But if you do add supplements, (even though you take them at a different time than your MMS doses), and you are not progressing and getting well, or your healing is moving along too slowly, then it may be  best to suspend the supplements again for a period of time.

If taking supplements, it is very important to space them out from the times you are taking your MMS doses by at least two hours, or even more if you can.

Question 4

Can I take supplements while taking MMS/CDS?

Accepted Answer

Never take supplements at the same time you take your MMS dose.
This includes vItamin C and multi-vitamins.

Question 5

Can I eat while on my protocol?

Accepted Answer

While on the protocols, it is best to plan your meals around your dosing. Space out the CD usage and meals by 20 to 30 minutes from the time you take your dose. For example, if you take your CD usage at 8:00 am, breakfast could be at 8:20-8:30 am, and your next dose at 9:00 am. Your breakfast should be relatively simple and small and take no longer than 10-15 minutes to eat. Likewise if you take an CD usage at 12 noon, lunch could be at 12:30 pm and so on.

During the hours you are on the protocol, it is best to try and eat smaller meals and/or snacks, as opposed to very large meals. (Don't get me wrong, you can eat while taking CD, just avoid the larger meals during the hours you are taking your doses.) There are a variety of ways this can be done—adjust according to your daily routine. For example, if you start your protocol fairly early in the morning, say at 8:00 am, eight hours later would be 3:00 pm, which would be the time of your last dose. If you have had smaller meals or snacks during this eight hour dosing period, and you finish your last dose at 3:00 pm, this means that by 5:00 pm or later, you could have your larger meal of the day.

Some people prefer to start their dosing later in the day, so that they are free in the morning hours to drink orange juice, or their cup of coffee or tea (see page 56 in the manual for more info). If a person starts their usage rate at 3:00 pm for example, their last usage would be at 10:00 pm if on the eight hour protocol. This means that before 1:00 pm they can have their coffee, tea or orange juice—things which are not compatible with CD and MMS2—at least two hours before starting the protocol. The idea is to adjust your dosing to fit your needs and schedule. See what works for you.

The effectiveness of CD can be cancelled out when mixed with certain foods which are particularly high in antioxidants.

Can I take Vitamin C or Multivitamins while taking CDS?
No, MMS is already supplementing your immune system, so while you are on a protocol there is no need to take anything else extra.

Question 6

What should I NOT take while on my protocol?

Accepted Answer

The following food and drinks are to be avoided when on an MMS Protocol:
Alcohol, chocolate, coffee, decaffeinated coffee, caffeinated drinks, tea (black, green and many herbal teas, including Moringa) milk, coconut water, orange juice, tangerine juice or any drinks with added Vitamin C (ascorbic acid).

Question 7

Does it matter if I use a glass, ceramic or plastic cup to mix MMS or DMSO?"

Accepted Answer

Best is glass or ceramic, if you use a plastic cup make sure it is a harden typle plastic and it will be fine.

Question 8

How long do I continue Protocol 1000?

Accepted Answer

Continue this 8 hour protocols until you are 100%.  Once you are fully recovered, then you can stop taking MMS.

Question 9

Do I need to continuously take MMS indefinitely?

Accepted Answer

Continue using until you are 100%.  Once fully recovered then stop.

Question 10

Can I take hospital medication while on my protocol?

Accepted Answer

Depends on the type of medication.  I am personally not a believe in hospital medication becaues they are prone to cause other side effects in the body.  Especially blood pressure and cholesterol medication.  Please see the related articles on my Blog page.
 
You have several options, you can either stop the medication while on the protocol and continue to use it after the protocol hours are completed.  Or
 
Reduced the protocol but risk neutralizing the MMS.  Or
 
Alternate days off.  One day on MMS and off medication and then next day on medication and Off MMS.
 
You need to think what is best for you, I can not make that determination.

Question 11

Can we mix in some juice or puree as my child(ren) hate taste?

Accepted Answer

Yes but you must make sure there's no added Vitamin C, as you must avoid it being neutralized. Just avoid anything with Vitamin C and you're good to go.
 
The best option is to add honey, either 1 spoon or 2 spoons.

Question 12

Is it ok to take MMS 2 or 3 times a day for just overall maintenance?

Accepted Answer

For maintenance only, yes you can.  What may be recommended is take before sleeping as it will help your body heal while you are sleeping.

Question 13

How big should the glass of water be with the 3 drops?

Accepted Answer

A standard mug size should be fine; the amount of water is as per the user to the degree of what they can drink.  The more water you add the lesser the taste of the MMS and DMSO. If you drink less water, and the taste is strong then add a spoon or two of honey.

Question 14

How do I know if I should take 1 drop, 3 drops or 5 drops?"

Accepted Answer

The rule of thumb is to always start off slow and build up.  The amount of drops would depend upon your sickness.  I have books on various protocols and dosages, please email me and we can discuss about this in more detail.

Question 15

Do I have to use a 1 L bottle to mix for my 8 hour protocol?

Accepted Answer

Don't get too down on exact measurements and then you end up not taking anything at all.  The idea is get the MMS and DMSO into your body so it can start working.

Question 16

I use honey to mask the taste. Does this affect its efficacy?

Accepted Answer

Not in the least.  Just remember though, that not all honey is created equal.  The supermarket cheap honey are loaded with sugar.  Best to obtain Jungle honey or choose for a reputable brand of honey.  The best honey in the world is Sidr honey from Yemen, though quit costly here in Malaysia.  Try to find one in between.

Question 17

Are there any side effects with MMS?

Accepted Answer

Any time large amounts of pathogens are being killed off in the body quicker than the body is able to eliminate the toxins that the dead pathogens produce, it may cause nausea, vomiting, headaches, diarrhea or other distress, such as excessive tiredness. This is called a Herxheimer reaction and is common when going through a detoxification program and the healing process. Please note that although the experience may not make you feel particularly good for a time, experiencing a Herxheimer reaction is usually a sign that healing is taking place. Other than that there are no side effects except to get well. Having said this, the idea is not to get sicker than you already feel. If one will follow the Three Golden Rules of MMS, as outlined in the MMS Health Recovery Guidebook, a Herxheimer reaction can be greatly minimized and/or avoided all together. On another note, the above mentioned discomforts pale in comparison to some side effects of chemotherapy and other pharmaceuticals.

Question 18

What is the shelf life of the chlorine dioxide solution and how can I tell?

Accepted Answer

The chlorine dioxide is dissolved in the water as a brown-yellow gas. The solution usually looks yellowish. If the vessel is open, the gas escapes quite quickly and a clear solution remains. The clearer the solution, the less chlorine dioxide it contains and the weaker the effect of the solution. You can extend the shelf life by closing the container and by cooling (e.g. in the refrigerator). CDS generally does not last as long as the 2 stand alone bottles (Mineral Solution and Activator Solution).

Question 19

What about my “good” gut bacteria?

Accepted Answer

If MMS kills all bacteria, then it must also attack my good intestinal bacteria. This is the most common objection against an oral intake of MMS. The condensed experience reports show, however, that MMS does not harm the good intestinal flora even with a longer continuous intake. We have no scientifically proven explanations for this, but we do have plausible and logical explanatory models. Chlorine dioxide is an oxidizer. Hydrogen peroxide and ozone are very powerful oxidizers and can destroy body cells as well as good bacteria. The next weaker oxidizer is oxygen. Our body cells and our good intestinal bacteria (1.45 volts) are able to hold on to their electrons in the face of the strong oxidizer oxygen. Otherwise, every breath we take would kill many thousands of cells in our body. Chlorine dioxide is a much weaker oxidizer. So if the cells can successfully defend their electrons against a strong oxidizer, they can do so even more so against the weaker chlorine dioxide (0.95 volts). This force to hold electrons is also called redox potential. Interestingly, most pathogenic germs (by the way, pathogenic germs are often anaerobic and do not use oxygen) have a lower redox potential than chlorine dioxide and are therefore attacked first by the MMS. In the MMS application protocols, usually only concentrations are recommended at which the good intestinal flora is maintained.

Question 20

With the MMS, can I first put water into the glass and then the NaClO2 and activator drops?"

Accepted Answer

No, water slows down the reaction very much! Please follow exactly the sequence according to the instructions.

Question 21

How much water should I take for an oral portion of MMS/CDS?

Accepted Answer

This is basically irrelevant. If there are 3 activated drops of MMS or e.g. 1ml of CDS in the glass and you drink the glass, you have always taken the same amount of chlorine dioxide. If there is little water in the glass e.g. 100ml, it tastes stronger. If there is a lot of water, e.g. 250ml in the glass, it tastes milder, but you have to drink more liquid

Question 22

When should I take MMS and with which foods rather not?

Accepted Answer

When MMS was still taken in few and high single doses, this question was important for a better tolerance. Since with the MMS-1000 and/or CDS-1000 protocol meanwhile far smaller doses and up to eight times a day are taken, it is now relatively unimportant whether one takes it before or after the meal. Eight times a day on an empty stomach would then only be possible during a fasting cure. I just think of my CDS bottle as a drink. I also do not make myself the stress to examine every food whether they can limit the effect of MMS. Even if I ate a pineapple once, the effect of one of my eight doses a day was slightly weakened. All this does not play the slightest role in this protocol designed for 4-6 weeks. So in this case, just don’t think too much!

Question 23

Can I stop for a while in the middle of protocol 1000?

Accepted Answer

Yes, since this is a cleansing program, you don’t jeopardize all the success like you do with antibiotics just because you had to take a break for personal or professional reasons. Just get back to it when you can.

Question 24

Why do I have very strong nausea or vomiting or diarrhoea already with the slightest intake of MMS/CDS?

Accepted Answer

This is now actually rare and can have various causes. On the one hand, a very rare chlorine allergy may be present. On the other hand, the body can be very germy and this one dose of MMS/CDS killed many more germs than other people. Then this high concentration of bacterial waste triggers the side effects due to the overload of kidneys and liver. Another cause may be the activator if you used citric acid, tartaric acid, etc. instead of the recommended hydrochloric acid. Some people are very overacidified and react also very violently to the rest acid in the MMS, here one should rather change to the pH-neutral CDSplus. As a last resort, you may have a parasite infestation. Parasites react very violently to chlorine dioxide, begin to multiply massively, and in a panic spill their intestinal contents into our bodies. These excretion products of the parasites such as ammonium, formaldehyde, histamine, manilin are neurotoxins for our immune system and can therefore trigger the severe side effects. Here a parasite cure, e.g. according to Dr. Andreas Kalcker (see book “Back2Balance”) would be indicated.
