Clarification of MMS Terms

MMS is the general acronym term used throughout the world to indicate many of the different uses of a solution of sodium chlorite in water. Sodium chlorite is a mineral/chemical, that when mixed with a food grade acid generates chlorine dioxide. Chlorine dioxide kills diseases inside and outside of the human body, and, it is chlorine dioxide which is the active ingredient used in most of our protocols.

So, the question is sometimes posed: What is MMS? Is it sodium chlorite? Or is it chlorine dioxide? The answer is: It is both! As I said above, the term MMS is often used as a generic term to describe what I have called Miracle Mineral Solution in the past, and what I now call the Master Mineral Solution. In this context one might say, “Well, it’s the mineral solution, therefore it’s chlorine dioxide.” Yes, but then again, a 22.4% solution of sodium chlorite is also usually sold by the name of MMS, and is called MMS in this, and other books and websites.

In our books, and as noted above in the definition list, we refer to MMS as a 22.4% solution of sodium chlorite in water, and use the acronym MMS1 to indicate that a food acid has been added to MMS which generates a chlorine dioxide solution. Technically MMS is sodium chlorite (a 22.4% solution in water), and MMS1 is MMS plus an activator, which produces chlorine dioxide. However, in every day talk both are often simply called MMS. One might say, “It’s time for my MMS dose”, (meaning their activated MMS drops in water), or “Hand me the MMS so I can mix up my dose”, meaning hand me the bottle of 22.4% sodium chlorite solution which will then be mixed with food grade acid to produce chlorine dioxide. Or, taking it further, one might say, “I have to order some MMS”, which is likely to mean he/she will order a bottle of sodium chlorite 22.4%, plus a bottle of food grade acid.

There are some who refer to MMS simply as “CD” for chlorine dioxide [which it is]. I am going into this lengthy explanation, not with the intent to confuse, but hopefully to clarify, because the term MMS has gone far and wide and is used around the world in this general way—in my opinion, there is no stopping it. I have concluded we simply have to go with the flow.

Think of it like this—I often liken MMS to the generic term for coffee. One might say they like to drink coffee. But the question is raised: What type of coffee? After all, there are many types and variations of coffee and ways to make it. There is drip/filter coffee, coffee made from a French press, or a percolator or in an espresso machine, or the quick and easy instant coffee. There are a variety of coffee beans and even more varieties of coffee blends. There are all types of ways to prepare and drink coffee. One might like a Cappuccino, another a Mocha Late, another a simple Espresso, an Americano, Turkish Coffee, Irish Coffee, Vienna Coffee, Café Cubano, Caffe Latte, or a good ol’ cup of Juan Valdez. The point is, often when referring to all these and many more variations of coffee, if you were going out with friends, you would be likely to say, “Let’s go for coffee”, but when you get to the coffee shop a variety of coffee would be ordered. In this sense, coffee is a broad term and the same can be said for the term, MMS.

So, when it comes to mixing up doses of MMS and using it for restoring one’s health according to this book, please diligently follow the terms for MMS as listed in the definitions above (see pages 5-8 in the MMS Health Recovery Guidebook) and know that when speaking in general terms, the acronym MMS is used in a variety of ways.
