I have been noticing that since starting mms over a week ago, that I am having bladder irritation. I assume I need more h2o.

{2/9/08}

update… I have been taking mms for about two weeks now. I stopped for just 2 days(1 after yukky nausea and one when I suspected I had a bladder infection or irritation. I am back on 3drops in the am and 4 in the evening. My arthritis pain is gone in my fingers and toes!! I sleep like a baby when I take the mms. when I don’t it is my usual fragile sleep pattern of the 57 y.o. women. The bladder pain was not bladder pain but uterine. I had stopped progesterone creme and it came back after a few weeks. I am back on that now. My husband is sketchy about taking it because he is herkzing more than me. He has bad sinus, arthritis, and some kind of weird gut problems. His daughter has Lyme and we are trying to get her and her mom on board with the mms. she sees dr. diamond and my husband is going to go to next appt. to suggest the mms and see what he has to say. My step daughter got lyme last summer and has been quite sick on and off with flus colds, and aching and poor sleep. I will keep you posted on that progress.

the other thing I notice is a reduction of my attachments to food. there are times when I forget to have my 2nd cup of coffee(never the first)!!I am sold. I am a therapist and work with lots of clients who have med. issues like fibro. I am referring them to the web info that I found and am being their guinea pig.

I am excited.

I am on my fith day of using MMS and here is what I am experiencing so far. Any input anyone has to give would be appreciated.

– I started with 2 drops and stuck with that for my next dose. After that I started going up by one drop each time I take it (twice a day)

– For about the first hour after I take it I feel like like I have a slight buzzing in my head. Also if I do anything like run up the stairs…or lift anything (anything that causes your heart rate to go up) I notice that I get winded a little faster.

– I know I am detoxing because I am a smoker and a heavy coffee drinker and when i wake up in the morning I can feel the lack of caffiene and nictotien in my body.

-However I have not experienced any diarrhea, in fact I did not go at all until the third day of being on this stuff and I consumed quite a bit of fiber to make this happen. But since then I am pretty regular.

-Morning breath is almost non-existant.

{1/18/08}

I will say though that I feel great. I have a 15 month old daughter who has a bad cold and has been sleeping very poorly..which means I have been sleeping very poorly. Not only do I not have the cold, but based on my energy and alertness you wouyld never guess that I am pretty sleep deprived!

Hello

I’m yet another new user- started (after reading several blog testimonies and Jim Humble’s site along with both of his books I highly recommend) on 19 DEC 07 with 2 drops twice a day but increasing a drop each time til the “poop hits the fan” as they say.

Could feel it coursing through my body in the first few minutes, tingling the backside of my head, making the hairs feel like they were vibrating. Vivid dreams that night-

An upper resp. phlegm that had plagued me for several months with a productive nagging cough was gone the following morning. The typical aches & pains of an active 57 yr old were gone that morning too- no aches in my shoulders, hips feet.

Made a mouthwash solution and tried it on myself and three or my eight children. It is amazing how fast it deals with halitosis- and how it keeps your breath good day after day.

I work at a hosp- CNA work so lots of exposure to resistant microbes. I have had a spot on my chest, just to the left of my sternum, for over two years from a Diaper pin I used to attach the mike of my darcom onto my uniform. The head of the D-pin rubbed on my skin, opened a path and I think the good ole MRSA bug got a hold there.

Never had it cultured but everything I have put on the ever festering wound has been a joke to it. Triple antibiotic, bag balm, silver salve, and lastly a $80/tube salve a doc recommended- HALOG 0.1 %. This last stuff is a cyanide- Halcinonide. Powerful stuff, but the bug laughed at it. The bug leaves a small scab that over the months slowly migrates along leaving scar tissue in it’s wake. Probably about 3/4″ long scar tissue now next to the dime size eruption that has a small scab. I have a pretty good immune system but it can’t kick this guy.

I put full strength solution on it straight out of the bottle, left on for 30 seconds and then washed off with water. That was yesterday. Looks dramatically different today- no scab just pink skin, no soreness or skin eruption. Too early to tell who’s laughing at who yet- but will post later.

As far as opportunity to try this on diagnosed MRSA patients- it would be easy- they come in almost every day in this small- 45 bed hospital. I could mention MMS to them and let them decide after reviewing the facts.

I can’t believe how many folk are just starting this MMS as I read the blogs- this one took me 3 days to get thru it’s 23 pages of testimony, but what a rich resource of witnesses. Hasn’t anyone used it longer than a few weeks? Where are the long term user testimonies??

I would like to find a powder form of NaCl02- anybody know what type of companies would be using this powder form in their industry? As others have said in this blog it would be good if we all stock piled it while the getting is good, the price is right and it’s still legal.

Nuf said fer now- Keep up the greatly informative posts, CL02

{12/31/07}

Since I started my MMS journey on 20 DEC 07 I have had the following improvemants in my health:

Mental Alertness Notice this most while at work keeping up with a lot of multi tasking.

Energy: Making it through my routine six 12hr night shifts here at the hospital. No abounding energy but enough to get through each night.

Increased Libido Again nothing dramatic but a definite upswing.

Lungs Clear I had an upper respiratory infection for about 6 weeks- w/first 2 drop dose in the evening by next morning it was completely gone.

Circulation My fingernails for over 10 years have been white- poor circ. Now they have turned a healthy looking pink. Color in my face is better.

Joints Stiffness in the morning (I’m 57) was also almost completely removed with first 2 drop dose! My hands have “trigger finger” in the middle fingers of both hands and I have not been able to snap my fingers for over 10 years- but dexterity has returned to my fingers and yes- I can snap them. Middle fingers are still locking but very slight. Wondering if this will go away as well?

Bloatedness Usually after I eat there is a bloated feeling for several hours- mostly gas in the stomach. This took several days treatment but now is greatly reduced.

Sleep My sleep is now very good- with reduced apnea. I have even found myself sleeping on my back- something I have not been able to do for many years due to blockage of the airway as soon as I falll asleep. My dreams are vivid. Less sleep seems to produce greater results- I’m sleeping 5-6 hours when I’m on my work week and seem to get plenty of rest. Prior to MMS it was more like 8-9 hours to get what I needed.

Sweet Tooth Yes I had one- and I’m still eating sweets I think out of the habit BUT I’ve noticed it is very easy to pass sweets up now- the strong drive to consume them is gone.

Breath Gums and breath are much better. One of my children had a good dash of halitosis- mixed up the MMS toothbrush/mouth rinse and one application almost took it away. After the second time she rinsed it was gone.

Constipation In a word: NONE. I used to have a BM about once a day and get a little C maybe one day every 2-3 weeks. Now I seem to have several small soft stool per day. I think my bowels are still flushing a lot of toxins out.

I know most of these improvements have a subjective quality to them- they are hard to clinically quantify. I have seen a lot of experiences similar to mine on the MMS blogs. I have not seen the pickup in energy yet- just a steady stream of usable energy. My protocol presently is to remain on 15-20 drops MMS twice daily for several weeks- then drop to a maintenance dose of 6/day. Working in a hospital is as good a reason as any to keep your immune system tweaked out. James

My father-in-law has been using MMS(mainly to deal with his Sjogren’s and candida problems) since mid-Aug. He is up to 11 drops a day, at night -if he takes it in the morning, the nausea bothers him, but nighttime doses seem to be fine.. He says he feels healthy for the first time in years. Obviously, he will be feeling side-effects for awhile yet, since he has struggled with candida for over 40 years – lots of issues there…

My husband and I have been taking it for almost 3 full months – no serious ailments, but we’ve noticed improved wellbeing – better sleep, loss of joint/muscle stiffness, cleared up sinus problem. We both took 15 drops 2x a day for a couple of weeks (ramped up from 2 drops initially), and we now take 6 – 10 drops at bedtime 3 or 4 times a week. Our bodies are continuously under attack from environmental toxins as well as viruses/bacteria, et al, so we plan to continue with our regimen for the forseeable future.

A friend first brought up drinking sodium chlorite in liters of water, mixed with “greens” (grass powder/veggie powder) about 4 years ago. (Sodium chlorite is the active ingredient in MMS). She kept mentioning it over and over to me, telling me how much it had helped her, and many, many others she knew.

I was pretty conservative, ate a SAD diet, and had very little experience with any holistic therapies. But, she was so enthusiastic, and she was a good friend, so I tried a liter with the drops and greens in it. (this was 5% sodium chlorite, so about 1/5 the strength of MMS).

Within the first hour of sipping this, I felt “high” … I was at work at the firehouse, so this was not the best place to feel this way, lol … I called up Darlene (my friend) and at first she couldnt believe it, but I described the way I felt and she agreed, yup, I was probably stoned.

We figured out, after thinking things over, that I had taken some anti-depressants and some anxiety meds about 8 to 12 mos before, and what had probably happened was a release/detox of stored meds from that prior time period … so I had a REALLY nice, euphoric first two hours drinking NaClO2.

After that, I began to feel incredibly more energetic, and I started to drop weight. I became so convinced so early about this combination that I continued to drink liters of water with these 5% NaClO2 drops, mixed with about a teaspoon of dry grass powder/veggie powder, about 4 -5 of these per day. The more I drank, the more weight I lost, and the more my appetite/desires shifted to eat the healthy food that was being recommended to me (“alkaline diet”). It is almost as though the more pure my body became, the more I wanted to eat whole foods, green foods, etc….

In the first 4 months I noticed the following benefits:

– I lost 40lbs (although I had NOT been trying to lose weight)

– I began to look a LOT younger … I was 39 then … most people

would guess I was 28 – 29

– My eyes brightened a TON … they went from tired and dull, to bright green … for the first time in my life, people would comment about my eyes…lol

– Little skin problems cleared up … itchiness, skin health, etc…

– My dandruff disappeared and my scalp stopped itching.

– I finally slept soundly; I had always awoken tired, and would have trouble waking up even by 7 or 8 in the morning; now, I could go to bed at 11pm, and I would ALWAYS pop awake at 4:30 or 5am, ready to go, and not be tired again until the next night.

– My snoring/sleep apnea just WENT away … I had been tested in a hospital sleep study center, and I would stop breathing about 30 times per hour.

– My allergies (seasonal, food, environmental) just WENT away … after years of suffering, and trying every OTC med known to man.

– My STRONG desires for sweets/carbs just WENT away (and when I say desires here, I mean pure LUST)

– My mind cleared up … for the first time really since high school I felt like I had my brain back … it was wonderful; I started writing again, poetry and stories, I started studying new subjects, etc…

– My energy level and my stamina continued to skyrocket … I would take my soccer ball down to the park, in the 98 degree heat of July, and play with the 16 year old soccer players until they wore out. Then I would go for a run.

– My patience, tolerance and love for others increased.

It was INCREDIBLE. I remember telling friends after about 4 mos. (in all humility, lol) that I felt like I could bend steel with my bare hands. And the energy, the strength, the endurance, and clarity of thought and expression all felt holistic, natural and good.

I’m sure there were many more things … it is difficult to recall it all…but I remember that it basically gave me my life back.

I hope this helps; maybe I will post it again.

Please take care,

Amazing!

after 1 and a half week of taking mms my brothers chronic bronchitis is disappearing. After 18 years of taking ventolin on a daily basis he has not been taking any ventolin for the last 3 days.

He is feeling great!

Big Pharma is losing yet another client!

{10/17/07 – Now Anonymous Coward 313489}

A little update;

It´s the 6th day he is not taking ventolin or nose spray.

He is feeling great!

He started fitness again and riding bike without any problems.

He remembers how he felt years ago before starting with the meds.

His energy is going thru the roof.

I am getting my own mms tomorrow, cant wait to try 😉

He is taking 6 drops per day.

Mixing one drop of mms with 5 drops of citric acid.

Leave to stand 5 to 10 minutes.

Mix with water then drink.

He never uses it on an empty stomach so he doesn’t have the vomiting happening. He had diarrhea for a couple of days but its now returning to normal.

{10/28/07 – Now Anonymous Coward 318665}

On it for 8 days now.

Going for 15 drops at night time.

Its amazing all the stuff its doing to my body.

Just discovered this site this afternoon. Was not surprised to read all the sceptics’ comments…:) Thought I’d contribute some anecdotal evidence (but only for those who are open to it! Sceptics need not read any further…)

My father-in-law was recommended this product by his naturpath. He was diagnosed with Sjogren’s disease about a year ago and had all the debilitating symptoms: dry eyes (needed drops every few hours), dry mouth (needed to drink water with meals/food), and much lower energy level. Since taking MMS for the last month and a half, he has had an amazing recovery: no longer needs eye drops at all, sleeps like a baby at night, and has no dry mouth at all. As well, he has resumed his passion, tennis (at 71 years of age!)

He is taking approximately 20 drops a day, but started out slowly with only 2-4 drops a day. He did experience some nausea at the onset, but as toxins left his system, those symptoms also left and he feels better than he has in years.

My husband and I have been taking it as well for the last few weeks, and again, there have been some great developments – my husband’s chronic eye problems (redness, itchiness) have all but disappeared, and he is sleeping more restfully. He, also, experienced some mild nausea and diahrea at the onset.

Read the literature, both Books 1 and 2, then try it for yourselves. Chances are, you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

{Subsequent post on 9/28/07}

…An interesting thing to add, is that I was very healthy before I started taking the drops, no issues to address, and have done a herbal detox, twice a year, for the last two years. My mother died of colon cancer, so my health awareness is certainly there. Anyhow, other than grimacing at the taste when I got up to the 15 drop dose, I have noticed no difference in anything, from BM’s to tiredness, etc. My husband’s eyes don’t bother him at all anymore, and he’s still sleeping very well.

The protocol is to initially stay at 15 drops, twice a day, for 2 weeks (if you are feeling well), then back down to 4 or 6 drops a day as a maintenance. I will stay with “the program” to see if any subtle changes are yet to occur — they say that can happen later…

{Subsequent post on 9/28/07}

I have not undergone any “side effects” at all, per se, but aside from his eyes clearing up and sleeping better, my husband has noticed other subtle improvements: hardly any plaque buildup on his teeth overnight (sometimes a problem), more regular bowel movements, and clearing up of his sinuses.

{Subsequent post on 10/4/7}

We are both still sleeping very well, let you know if there are any other changes. My husband did have mild diahrrea for 2-3 weeks when he hit the 15 drop level, but that has finally ended, with no difference at all in his BM’s.

{10/19/07}

…recent results/observations: I have not really seen any changes in my health, other than my “monthly” seemed to be a little easier (I am pre-menopausal and am curious to see how MMS will help with that end…). My husband has noticed that when he takes his 15 drops after playing pickup hockey, he does get nauseous for 10-15 minutes, but then it passes. He usually takes 15 drops after supper, and another 15 about 5 hours later. This is the second week he has noticed that reaction and is wondering if his increased metabolism is somehow increasing the efficacy of the MMS in his system. I’m going to try it after a workout, to see if I get a similar reaction.

{10/20/07: In response to a question by another poster as to why she was taking MMS}

The first person in our family to start with MMS was my father-in-law. He had been diagnosed with Sjogren’s disease (auto-immune disorder) and suffered from dry mouth, eyes, tiredness, plus he knew he was carrying around viruses in his sinuses, etc. When he had such amazing results, my husband decided to try it because he had been sleeping restlessly and often had red, irritated eyes – some sort of bug going around. His sleep improved instantly and his eyes have cleared up completely. I took it because I have always been proactive with my health since I lost my mom to colon cancer, and had read that many subtle improvements (ie. blood pressure) could come about. I truly believe that it does no harm to healthy people and will continue to take a 6 drop dose a few times a week to clear up any “background” problems. Exercising when you’re already in good shape is the same mindset – you don’t wait to start dealing with symptoms and problems as they appear, you look after yourself every day 🙂

A friend of ours has just started taking MMS – he has had a terrible cold for over a month and suffers from allergies year-round. He got up to 4 drops of MMS, and had a reaction similar to “the Exorcist”, with purging at both ends…He backed off and will wait a few days to start again. I will follow and chart his progress, especially with his allergies.

{10/20/07: Continued responses to questions}

My father-in-law was diagnosed several months after he started noticing typical symptoms, so it was about a year and a half after the onset that he started to try MMS.

His symptoms were dry mouth (so bad that he could not eat anything without “washing” it down with water), his eyes were very “dry” (he had to use artificial tears 6-10 times a day, his taste glands didn’t work the way they used to. We teased him about being German and giving up beer, but he just couldn’t stomach it any more. His sleep has always been restless, since the twenty-odd years I have known him.

He was reluctant, at first, to get too excited about the results he was seeing, in case they were short-lived, but after 2 months, he says he feels 80% better. He does not have to use any eye drops, he sleeps like a baby, and I am very happy to say, he drinks beer with the rest of us again! When he went to see the doctor who originally diagnosed him with his Sjogren’s a few weeks ago, he was asked how he felt. He replied 60% better than before. The doctor asked, “Why?” He said that he was “trying out something on his own”. He wasn’t sure how news of the MMS would be received. The doctor never even questioned him, or asked what he did to achieve such a great turnaround. I mean, she just shrugged it off. Unbelievable!!!

He has decades of issues that he is still working on (sinus infections and candida over the years), and is prepared to continue with the MMS long-term, until he can take the 15 drop dose twice a day, without any woozy feelings. He realizes things that took years to take hold of his system will not disappear overnight.

As for suggesting MMS to your Sjogren’s friends, I would say encourage them to give it a try. Detractors of the product (such a the previous posts) have obviously not done their research, or even read the chemical explanation of how this product works. I wonder how many people will not give it a chance because of lack of understanding, but would rather play Russian roulette with prescribed medication…which only works at reducing symptoms, and does not, for the most part, work at eliminating the problems. This product does not boast of curing anything. Rather, it’s two-pronged approach is to i) strengthen your immune system and ii)eliminate any pathogens in your body, WHILE LEAVING HEALTHY CELLS ALONE. The chemical reaction of the acetic acid and sodium chlorite is complete within 4 hours, and if it hasn’t interacted with any “bad” cells in your systems, converts to a miniscule amount of table salt. Hopefully, those who could really benefit from this “miracle” mineral will give it a try. Thousands of people have walked away from sickbeds in Africa, and many more in other countries. Doctors are actually expressing an interest in it – how can they ignore it?

I just want to stress again, that this IS NOT BLEACH!! It is not chlorine. The chemical reaction of Sodium Chlorite and the acetic acid (or citric acid, which is what we use) produces Chlorine Dioxide, and at a drastically smaller fraction than what is used for cleaning and disinfecting. The MMS solution has a 28% dilution of sodium chlorite, and the proportion of drops to acid have been calculated to give a precise, predictable reaction rate, which, as I said earlier, is complete within 4 hours of it’s start. This is why you have to count your drops and mix it properly…I have been taking it for over a month, at the “full dose” rate, and have not had any side effects, either from pathogens leaving my system, or from any effects of the MMS either.

I started about 6 weeks ago. Started with 1 drop in the evening. Made me sick: heart racing, nauseated, fearful with a very anxious feeling & depressed, as well as fatigued, aches and pains throughout my body. Did increase my calcium. Started taking Co Q 10 and hawthrone for the heart symptoms, but the other was simply detoxing, and I knew it. Went to 2 drops, and then 2 in the eveing and 1 in the morning, when I felt the fatigue was just too much to handle. Quit for a few days (felt great when I didn’t take it) and then continued with only 1 drop in the evening. I adjusted my dosage according to the nauseated/depressed feelings I experienced. When that lets up (it usually takes about 5 days), I will again increase by one drop. For the last two weekends I have stopped the drops altogether jsut to see how I am feeling and usually feel really good on the weekend. Right now I am up to 5 drops taken in the evening. I use the lime juice you get in the little plastic, fat looking bottle like thing rather than fresh limes simply for convenience. I put 1/4 tsp. of lime juice in a small glass with how many drops I am taking (5 at this time), swish and let stand for 3 minutes. Then I add 1/2 cup water to the mixture and drink. I usually follow with another clean drink of water and I’m done. I might have to use some kind of juice when I get to higher dosages because of the taste, but will cross that bridge when I come to it. Right now plain water is working fine for me.

I noticed the easier breathing right away. Probably within only 1-2 drops of the stuff. This stuff is working for me in a way the ozone didn’t. Ozone never reached my lungs like this is. Even tho I am experiencing some detoxing, I am also experiencing increased health in between if that makes any sense. My brain is functioning better, my breathing is better, will also find myself laughing (between tearing up). It’s kind of weird. Sometimes I will feel like crying more easily, while other times there is just a sense joy there.

I’m definitely in the digging the trenches foundation right now, but when my body tells me it can handle more, I thoroughly expect to excell as can anybody that will only use patience and perserverence. Gotta lay that foundation first, tho.
