When activating MMS, it is very important that the drops of MMS and activator acid (note: HCl 4% [hydrochloric acid] or citric acid 50% is most commonly used as activator acid) turn amber color within the first 30 seconds. When we say amber, we are referring to a brown color. This can be anywhere from light to dark brown, not really pale yellow. The amber color of MMS activated drops before adding water, is much like the color of a glass amber bottle (such as is used for essential oils, various medicinal potions, or for beer bottles), when held up to the light.
Mix up a 3-drop dose of MMS1 to do this test, if you use less drops it will be difficult to adequately judge the color. It is best to carry out this test in a room with good lighting. When you have mixed your drops (before adding water), hold the glass up against a white or light colored background and look through the side and bottom of the glass (where your drops are) with the glass level with your eyes; at this angle you will be looking through your drop mixture. If you look down into the glass, the drops will often look lighter yellow, but if you view the drops at eye level (with good lighting) you should see a darker shade—that is, amber. Although it turns dark, it must also be transparent (see-through). The drops must appear amber in color. The amber color will fade and become light yellow in about 15 minutes. Do not let the solution sit for more than a minute before consuming it, as it will lose potency.
The amber color is an important indicator that the drop mixture is correct. You are mixing two clear liquids, MMS and an activator. If the liquids are mixed according to instructions they will change color and turn to amber. This amber color indicates that you have the correct liquids and a correct mixture. Very few two clear liquids can produce this same color.
If your drops do not turn amber within the first 30 seconds of mixing, something is wrong with your MMS and/or with your acid, and this mixture may not bring the desired results. You might try mixing up a dose one more time, to be sure you did it correctly, but if you still get very light yellow and not amber color, you can use those drops for the time being, while you try to get some good MMS and acid activator. But I would suggest you do not use this solution (light yellow, not amber, drops) for more than a week or so. If the solution does not at least turn yellow do not use it at all.
Various factors can weigh in as to the color of the drops, such as the type of glass you are using, making sure the glass is completely dry to start, the number of drops you are mixing, the background color of the wall, the time of day and how much natural light is in the room and so on. If you are not getting the right color, and you are sure you have followed the directions correctly, try mixing up the drops a few times in different conditions. For example, use a different glass (some glass qualities distort) make sure the glass is clean enough—no dish soap deposits. Hold your drops up against a white wall, a white fridge, or a light background when testing the color. If in doubt of the color, mix up a 6-drop dose when testing. Test your drops under various conditions, before determining your drops are insufficient.
Note: If you are using an alternative acid such as lemon, lime, or vinegar at a 1-to-5 drop ratio with MMS, your drops will not turn amber in color. In this case, if you want to test that the MMS is good, mix up a 3-drop dose of MMS1 (this would be 3 drops of MMS and 15 drops of lemon, lime or vinegar) and wait three minutes. Then add 1/2 cup (4 ounces/120 ml) of water and test the ppm, which should be 25 ppm.

Healing, Movement and Time
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)Note: From a discussion with Jim on health, movement and time.
Jim: Funny thing, many people go for all the “conveniences” available today. Like that gal [Alexa], who can turn the lights on and off or open and close the door, so they don’t have to be bothered to get up and do it. There’s all kinds of gadgets in homes today so people do not have to bend over and pick something up, or lift a finger for any given task. Often these same people are constantly trying to see how they can lose weight. They prefer “convenience” and very limited “movement” and they do not connect the dots that maybe this is one thing contributing to their health condition and to their weight problem… that is, they don’t move much.
I’ve always been a big proponent of movement. Daily walks, interval walking, slow walk, fast walk, maximum effort walk, and of course jumping. These are the basics, and from there take your pick on what exercise suits you, ride a bike, get a skate board, swim, run, do push-ups, pull ups, yoga, tai-chi, or any number of other practices! Go to the gym if you have to or pick from a long list of sports—but whatever you do, move every day! Movement is a vital part of health.
And remember, healing often takes time. Now-a-days, we want everything “right now” on the spot, if something [a remedy] is not working quickly, we deem it not working at all. I think we are missing the point sometimes that in the journey of healing, we stand to make new discoveries, such as maybe we learn about diet and how to better determine what our daily diet should be. Through the healing “process” there are many things we learn and gain along the way in the “time” that it takes to heal. Be thankful for the quick results when they come. But remember, be patient when needed. Some healing simply takes time, stay consistent with the protocols and keep going step by step.
Your Body is Not Constant
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)Your body is not constant, internally things are always changing. People go through puberty, menopause, aging, varying degrees of stress, to name a few. There are always changes in your body and for different reasons. People can be deficient in different things at different times due to many factors such as environmental conditions, the food you are eating, the water you drink, what type of exercise you are doing or not doing, how much sleep you are getting, whether or not you smoke, what kind of medications you are taking, and so on.
So all these things can have an effect on how people handle MMS/CD. An example is I’ve done Protocol 1000 many times and all went well, but there have also been times when I’ve done Protocol 1000 and I could not get up to 3 drops an hour, I had to keep the hourly dose lower. Who knows why? We go up and down in our levels of things within the body and our immune systems change. Sometimes the immune system is strong and other times it’s weaker because of lots of different circumstances.
One time I was doing Protocol 1000, and I had to reduce my dose down to ¼ drop an hour.
Question: Why do you think that was?
Jim: Because poisons were being released in my body.
Question: So you were detoxing too fast?
Jim: Yes. And so over time, through trial and error, through much experimentation on myself, one day it dawned on me, the obvious—that is what I’ve now named, the Three Golden Rules of MMS. Those principles are huge. It’s so important, and like I have said many times, the Three Golden Rules can apply to everything, certainly everything relating to health, but other things too. If you will abide by these rules, it’s the key to help you “personalize” things—this is how you adjust and come up with your own personal protocol. Follow your body, pay attention to the signals your body is giving you. If you start to feel nauseous, more than is comfortable, pull back. If you start to get a touch of diarrhea pull back. If you don’t see or feel anything happening, increase the dose and so on.
So I’ll say it again, your body is not constant and this is why you’ve got to stay alert and tune in to what your body is telling you. Listen to your body, and adjust things accordingly. If you do this, you have a good chance at getting well.
Ozone, MMS/CD and Oxidation in the Body
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)Ozone is a powerful oxidizer and gets used up fast, because it destroys everything in sight. That is why it cannot penetrate really deep into the tissues. It gets used up destroying tissues as well as pathogens that happen to be there. There are, however, some valuable uses of ozone in the body. My recommendation would be if one wants to use ozone, like with everything, be sure you do so responsibly and go with a knowledgeable doctor or practitioner who knows what they are doing.
Oxidation destroys compounds. We breathe in oxygen and we breath out carbon dioxide. Oxygen is 1.30 volts, but MMS/CD is way lower—0.95 volts. So if oxygen does not destroy the body or tissues in the body, neither will MMS/CD, but it does destroy pathogens. Pathogens are anaerobic microorganisms (they do not use oxygen). And basically they are the only non-oxygen using organisms in the body. Since they don’t use oxygen, they have not developed a resistance to oxidation. MMS/CD kills viruses in a different way. It prevents the formation of the special virus proteins (that are not used elsewhere) thus resulting in the destruction of the virus.
Some MMS/CD Benefits
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)Following is what I have observed over the years. Some of it is my opinion; however, I have discussed all of this information with various medical doctors and they have agreed with me.
Organisms Destroyed
MMS1 destroys microorganisms, including viruses, bacteria, fungus, molds, yeast, and parasites that causes various diseases. Viruses are killed by a different mechanism: MMS1 prevents their formation of special proteins, thus causing their destruction. The killing of disease-causing organisms generally takes between 4 hours and 4 weeks, but often less than 1 week. This is true for all forms of infection and other microorganisms, as well as blood diseases such as leukemia.
Heavy Metals Oxidized
MMS1 oxidizes many heavy metals in the body. I believe this because there have been a number of tests where the roots of a person’s hair were checked before and after taking MMS1 Afterwards, the heavy metals were gone, including mercury, lead, and others. Unfortunately, root testing is not totally accurate; however, it is a good indication. Oxidation of the heavy metals is not the same as chelating but the results are the same. When a heavy metal is oxidized, it is neutralized and simply washes out of the body.
Foreign Matter Neutralized
MMS1 is carried throughout the body, where it neutralizes foreign matter that is generally poisonous. When oxidized, poisons are neutralized and merely washed out of the body. Almost all poisonous material is easily oxidized. These poisons are attached at various locations and hinder the body’s function. As they are oxidized, they are detached and washed out of the body.
Poisons Neutralized
Most forms of poisons from snakes and other venomous animals are oxidized when adequate amounts of MMS1 are taken. Most food poisons found in restaurants or in your refrigerator are oxidized, which is why one should take a dose every 15 minutes when snake poisons or food poisoning is involved. (See the MMS Health Recovery Guidebook for more specific information on snake poisons and food poisoning).
Burns Healed
The poisons generated by burns, particularly 3rd degree burns, are neutralized when covered immediately (or even within hours) with MMS (note: in this case use unactivated MMS). MMS should not be left on more than 5 minutes. It must then be rinsed off with water. This can be done twice for a total of having MMS (unactivated) on the burn for 10 minutes, no longer.
Aversion to Taking MMS/CHLORINE DIOXIDE
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)It has happened with people who were taking MMS/CD, for example, for say 3 months and all of a sudden they had this terrible revulsion to it. One guy wrote me and said, “Even writing to you about it is making me sick.”
This happens with some people. In my opinion, I am thinking what is really happening is there are some microorganisms in the body that are saying, “We don’t want any more of that.” And they have enough intelligence to put out some sort of signal that makes you really sick of it, that really revolts you against taking it. I went through that too, it used to repulse me so much that I didn’t even want to write about it. BUT, it’s important to know that you can get past that point. If you can understand that the microorganisms themselves are putting out a signal, trying to get you to stop—it might help you to just hold on and get past it, especially if you know your health and getting well is at stake.
One of the ways to get around that for a time is mix it with an acceptable juice that will not neutralize it. Diluted grape juice, pineapple, cranberry or apple juice in general are compatible with MMS, but because there are so many different brands, I would suggest you read the ingredients and make sure there are no harmful additives or ascorbic acid, or things that will cancel it out. (For further explanation on this, see pages 278-281 in the MMS Health Recovery Guidebook).
Arthritis
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)If you are suffering with arthritis there are some things you should know. First, it doesn’t matter how bad it is, your body is able to heal it, but you have to follow the correct procedure. For one, you need to know what kind of arthritis you have. MMS (chlorine dioxide) will help with rheumatoid arthritis, Lyme arthritis, and most others. But osteoarthritis, is a different story, while MMS/CD may help it, it may not be completely overcome without taking some further actions.
Osteoarthritis is caused by muscles in an area pulling in the wrong direction. The wrong muscles try to take over to move the body in that area. When all of these muscles begin to pull against one another, they create pain and tension and begin to destroy the joint.
However, you can get things working properly again. The book, Pain Free, by Pete Egoscue tells how to get the correct muscles working again. The body then heals the joint(s), no matter how badly the bones are currently scraping against one another. It just requires some specific exercises to get the correct muscles aligned properly and functioning again.
Pete’s method is about musculoskeletal realignment. It’s focused on specific exercises (what they call e-cises) that help align your posture back to the proper position. It is something you can do at home. In many cases, even in severe cases, people see improvement within a week. Egoscue would be my first choice, but there is also the Feldenkrais Method, which works quite well too.
So for osteoarthritis consider one of these two methods, in addition to taking MMS/CD, and know that most other forms of arthritis can be handled with MMS/CD alone. Just use the standard Protocol 1000, as described in the MMS Health Recovery Guidebook.
Three Tips on the Use of MMS/CD (Enemas, Baths, Skin)
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)MMS retention enemas are effective in cleansing intestinal walls. They also cause the ClO2 to be absorbed and mixed with the plasma of the blood – the blood liquid. MMS benefits are more available to more parts of the body more quickly when the ClO2 is carried in the plasma.
Hot tub baths with activated MMS in the water expose the entire skin surface to ClO2 ions. Add hot water continually while sitting in the tub. Skin pores open and the ClO2 ions pass deep below the skin and into muscles. Since blood is always present in muscles, the ClO2 ions merge into the plasma of the blood providing greater concentration of detoxifying action against parasites, yeast, fungus and other pathogens.
You can spray activated MMS on skin anywhere. It is effective against localized skin sores and/or diseases. The mixture must have water added to make the liquid ready for spraying. (Note: Jim’s basic spray bottle protocol is 10 activated drops of MMS to 1 ounce/30ml of purified water. For full details on how this can be adjusted for various issues, please refer to the MMS Health Recovery Guidebook. CDS is also very effective to apply externally to the skin. CDS at 3000 ppm can be applied directly to the skin, or it can be diluted down a bit with water if applying it to more sensitive areas of the body). It does not bleach hair and does not harm the skin. If you have open sores or cuts, it may cause sensations of burning but it promotes rapid germ-free closure of wounds.
Remembering Jim Humble Today
/by Team Jim HumbleToday, we say Happy Birthday dear Jim—the world is definitely a better place because you’ve been in it!
In these days of uncertainty in many areas of our lives, we are reminded of Jim’s ongoing challenge to all of us—that is—to always have the attitude of “What can I do today, here and now, to make the world a better place?” Jim never suggested one needed to go out and perform some “grand act of valor” but he said, “Making a difference in the world does not necessarily require big things, but rather little things, kind acts, done consistently.” He said, “Lending a helping hand to others, done on a consistent basis, can go a long way to making a difference in this world.” Kindness, helping others and living with integrity wasn’t a random thing for Jim—it was his lifestyle.
We invite you to join us this coming year to make a personal commitment to live with integrity, to always do the right thing and to help one another whenever you have the opportunity. This can be applied in many ways, and certainly, if you have been helped through the use of MMS/CD, please keep spreading the word—help others who need this amazing Master Miracle Solution as well. And, as Jim would say, “Have fun at what you are doing along the way.”
Best wishes to all of you in the New Year ahead.
Merry Christmas 2025
/by Team Jim HumbleWe here at Team Jim Humble want to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and happy holiday season. At this time of the year many are focusing on connecting with family and friends, parties and having a good time. In addition to all the fun times this season brings, we would like to take a moment to point out to you something that Jim Humble was very focused on—that is the very core principles that he lived by—the main ones being, “always to the right thing” and “help one another”.
This holiday season we invite you to think on these things and do what you can to put into action these wise principles.
So many in the world right now are lonely and heavy-hearted. Many are confused and fearful for one reason or another, many are sick and in pain. Jim used to remind us at Christmas time that there are even those in some parts of the world who may not even know it’s Christmas. Jim was very much about the plight of the poor, the down trodden, those who live in difficult situations.
He often said people tend to do charitable things at Christmas time, but he said, “We should do good deeds all year long.” Some additional core principles Jim believed in are:
If you can spare a minute or two, take time to think about these. Not only are these right actions to live by, doing so will improve your health, along with taking MMS/CD. If this post resonates with you, we encourage you to keep spreading the word. Thank you for joining us in our common goal and desire to help mankind.
A very Merry Christmas 2025.
Here’s to your good health, peace and prosperity,
Team Jim Humble
