Just How Safe is the Miracle Mineral Supplement?

If you use MMS consistently, you may not know what its long-term effects are. This article is written so that you can have that information accordingly. Oftentimes, this supplement will give you nausea, but it may also produce inflammation. In the short term come inflammation is a "good" thing, because it can increase blood flow to tissues that need it, giving extra nutritional support so that healing can occur within organs and tissues that have been damaged or otherwise injured. Thus, "inflammation" is necessary over the short term, but may very well be damaging to you if your immune response is below what you need to remove diseased tissue and invading microbes; in that case, your inflammation response may become a long-term thing, which can damage your body. In fact, inflammation has been found to be one of the driving mechanisms behind many chronic diseases.

Chlorine dioxide works effectively to kill microbes because it's a powerful oxidizer. In general, if substances oxidize within the body, you get a strong immune response. That's why inflammation is often absolutely necessary during times of healing. Inflammation helps the body speed up the healing process, because it gives additional nutritional support to the area that needs it most, and also helps provide the avenue by which it wastes and other toxins can be removed. Inflammation can certainly be unpleasant over the short term, true, but it may be necessary. Unfortunately, modern medicine actually treats even short-term inflammation by trying to suppress it, too often. Many modern diseases that have inflammation as a symptom (and that would normally be short-term) in fact have this most valuable response thwarted by modern medicine's propensity to suppress the inflammation response no matter what the situation or cause. Therefore, too often, the treatment suppresses the mechanism (short-term inflammation) by which nature could deal with and even annihilate the disease.

Chronic diseases in general are much more common as we get older. That means that any chronic pathology is going to slowly strip the body of its natural antioxidant supplies, and using MMS over a longer time will exacerbate this even more. As you can probably guess, then, it's important that you supplement with additional antioxidant support as you consume MMS. Consuming additional antioxidants should be done separately from MMS, as if you consume your antioxidants too close to gather with MMS, they'll cancel each other out, were in effect neutralized each other so that they have no effect. So if, for example, you take MMS before breakfast and before bedtime, take your antioxidants near the middle of the day.

Antioxidants can be found in vitamin supplementation like vitamins C, E, and B complex vitamins. Other antioxidant supplements include: coenzyme Q10 and grape seed extract; other foods, too, are rich sources of antioxidants, and can be found in polyunsaturated oils, green tea, fresh fruits, berries, and the spice turmeric. Again, even antioxidants in foods should be taken separately from MMS, which is why it's a good idea to take MMS both on an empty stomach just on arising, and just before bed several hours after you have eaten.

As ascorbic acid is such a powerful supplement for the protection of oxidant sensitive structures such as the brain, eyes and heart. When consuming vitamin C, make sure to consume it at least 1 - 2 hours either side of the MMS protocol, as upon contact with the chlorine dioxide molecule, neutralization will take effect.

If, for some reason, you've overdosed on sodium chlorite (or someone you're around does), you can mix a lot of clean potable water with ascorbic acid and then consume it over a period of two hours. This is the most effective way to neutralize chlorine dioxide. If you need further relief, you can vomit to expel what is left within the stomach after you've ingested the vitamin C.

As you can see, too much of anything is not a good thing, and this can be said also of the miracle mineral supplement. So take heed, and remember that health is a multifaceted consideration, but with diligence and time, the body always strives for equilibrium, thus allowing health to return.
