28/10 "chlorine dioxide" TOOTHPASTE

Well there surely is not chlorine dioxide in toothpaste. Chlorine dioxide is a gas and toothpaste is not ever gaseous that I have seen. Sodium chlorite which combines with saliva to form trace amounts of chlorine dioxide is what is in toothpaste. It kind-of works. However, when a good dose of chlorine dioxide would be useful in the morning when one first awakes, the mouth is fairly basic pH. Later in the day, after one has eaten, the mouth is more acidic. Of course the act of eating and drinking helps oral malodor. In summary; When you need it most, it doesn’t help very much. When you don’t need it very much it works a lot better.

Works kind of like a bank!

27/10 Solid and Powdered "chlorine dioxide"

I would like to reply again to your questions about solid and powdered “chlorine dioxide.” Chlorine dioxide is a volatile corrosive gas. Chlorine dioxide in powder or pill form cannot exist. It needs to be activated. If water is added to the solid chemical then a chemical reaction occurs that allows acid and sodium chlorite to combine to (temporarily) form chlorine dioxide. The important thing to consider for drinking water is what residue of the reagents exists after the chemical reaction occurs to make the chlorine dioxide in solution. The chemical in most pills and powders that claim to produce chlorine dioxide in solution is dichloroisocyanurate (whew). This chemical is forbidden for human consumption in EU but allowed for disinfecting spas and swimming pools. I do not know who is right and who is wrong, the EU or the US who permit use, but I believe common sense dictates that we err on the side of caution and consider not imbibing this foul tasting chemical when alternatives exist.

08/07 Answers to Questions re. MMS

Writing about MMS always opens up a can of worms. Too many replies to paste in so I will speak generally
1. Mixing 28% sodium chlorite and various fruit juices (MMS) cannot be precise. Being imprecise may be OK. I am not familiar enough with the protocol to know whether actually knowing how much chlorine dioxide one is imbibing is of value or not.
2. One of the claimed benefits of XiniX-KlearWater products is actually knowing what the measured dose of chlorine dioxide will be. For some applications, I infer from the protocol, that it is not particularly important, within limits, to know how much chlorine dioxide is produced, only that chlorine dioxide IS produced.
3. KlearWater is at a safe .15% chlorine dioxide concentration. We do not regard competing non-MMS mixed products as safe. In our opinion 2% chlorine dioxide is not safe for children (eyes, skin, imbibed).
3. The claimed concentration for the MMS concentrate, when mixed with juice, is so low it is hard to imagine it would be effective. However, in the previous blog posting, I gave what I believe to be the mxing instructions for what I saw.
I do not think it is wise for me to blog any further with respect to the MMS. I can only relate our chemistry to what I extracted from the MMS website. If you wish to discuss further, please call through the contact information on www.klearwater.com.

Good luck to MMS, I sincerely hope they have found the breakthrough they have claimed for third world medicine. It would certainly relieve a lot of human misery if they have.
