I want to make it clear that we have seen all forms of MMS help people recover their health. Nevertheless, there are significant differences with each one. As MMS1 has already been covered extensively in my Health Recovery Guidebook, below is a brief synopsis on CDS.
CDS
CDS is chlorine dioxide gas in distilled water and contains no sodium chlorite or activator. It has to be made up ahead of time through one of several distillation processes and ideally stored in the refrigerator. A pre-made mixture can be convenient. Depending on how CDS is handled, it can last several weeks or even longer.
While CDS is relatively easy to make, there are many variables that can have an effect on the end product. Things such as temperature, climate, altitude, humidity, air pressure, and what type of equipment is used can make a big difference in the resulting CDS. For example, if there is too much air in the bottle or jar it is stored in, it can lose potency. Each time you open the bottle, out-gassing occurs which will lessen potency, and so on. You may start out with a 3000 ppm solution of CDS, but in a weeks’ time, due to out-gassing every time the bottle is opened and other factors, your solution may be getting increasingly weaker. Learning the techniques on how to make and handle CDS is not all that difficult if one is dedicated to doing so—but close attention must be given to the details.
CDS is fully activated—there is no residual sodium chlorite left in the solution—which is considered by some to be an advantage. It can be easier on the stomach, and many consider it to have little taste compared to MMS1. At low doses this is true. However, to recover health from serious disease, it is usually necessary to take high level doses of CDS. When this happens, taste and/or burning in the throat can enter into the equation, and sometimes a Herxheimer reaction.
CDS can be helpful for sensitive people, who for one reason or another cannot tolerate MMS1. We have seen that for some people starting out on CDS can be beneficial to help one become accustomed to taking MMS1. The Starting Procedure with MMS1 has eliminated the need for this in most cases. The above stated observations are regarding taking CDS internally. Some people feel that CDS works best with treating external conditions and many have had success with this.
The main important observation that myself and other extensive users of CDS (who have worked close with me) have noticed, is something which I call the plateau phenomena. Those working with autistic children used CDS exclusively for one year. At first it was easy to see the children were improving, but as time went on and the children continued to take CDS, the majority seemed to hit a plateau where they were not improving. They came to a standstill. But when these same children were put back on taking MMS1, they again started to improve.
Several Health Ministers and others, when using CDS for a variety of diseases, including cancer, have also reported this phenomenon. There seems to be a point when the individual hits a stalemate (this doesn’t always happen, but it often does), but when put on MMS1, they start to improve again. So, if you do use CDS, my advice would be to be aware of the plateau phenomena and if it happens to you, consider switching to MMS1.
My Personal Conclusion on MMS1 and CDS
As stated previously, CDS is completely activated and contains no residual sodium chlorite in the solution. MMS1 does contain some free sodium chlorite which makes its way through the stomach into the system. Now, while some people believe the advantage to CDS is that it does not contain unactivated sodium chlorite, I have a different opinion. I believe just the opposite.
Unactivated sodium chlorite alone also destroys poisons and kills pathogens. It has been sold in health food stores in the USA for 80 years and many thousands of people have had some good results from taking it. There are those who now use it without prior activation because they believe that the stomach acid is what activates it and they get a certain amount of good results.
When I first discovered MMS, it was MMS (sodium chlorite–unactivated) alone that healed the first men in the jungle of malaria. As I traveled throughout the jungle helping many more people recover their health (mostly from malaria and typhoid fever), it was sodium chlorite alone that helped. But the success rate was about 60%. Through much experimentation, it wasn’t until I developed the formula further and started activating MMS that the success rate for malaria turned out to be about 98%, and about 92-94% for other diseases.
It is my opinion, unactivated sodium chlorite penetrates deeper into the tissues of the body than even MMS1, according to data I have gleaned from patents issued in the last century. Unactivated sodium chlorite penetrates into the tissues in a different way than MMS1, and thus the two together seem to be more effective than either one alone. It has been very obvious to many of us that MMS1 (chlorine dioxide) along with unactivated sodium chlorite is what gets the very best results. This is anecdotal evidence, but with many thousands of people recovered, even scientists have to admit that serves as legitimate evidence.
In conclusion, I want to say that MMS in all forms continues to be a mystery at times. The important thing is to find what works best for you. Remember to always use the Three Golden Rules of MMS (pages 83-84 in my Health Recovery Guidebook). If using CDS and you are not seeing desired results, carefully study Chapter 8 in the Guidebook and/or consider switching to MMS1.
Use of Magnets for Broken Bones
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)Notes from a discussion regarding someone who badly broke their wrist and it was not healing up properly:
Jim: (Referring to a violet ray machine):
Comment: Her bones are healed evidently, but she thinks the way it was set, the cast pushed on something and affected something else.
Jim:
Question: But how do you tell somebody to go with magnets, because there are all different approaches on how to use magnets, there is bio-magnetism pair and there are various other different methods. Practitioners tend to merge the methods sometimes, which might not be a bad idea, but how to do you tell someone to use magnets for this? Do you just tell them to get a magnet of a certain strength (X amount of gauss) and put one on top and one on the bottom. How do you guide someone to do this–to use the magnets?
Jim:
Question: So if the arm was not in the middle, they would be stuck together, that is “pulling”, they would be sticking together?

Why Chlorine Dioxide (MMS) is More Effective Than Oxygen
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)Oxygen does kill pathogens when it contacts them, but oxygen has other jobs in the body as well. It oxidizes various body poisons generated during the course of the day. These poisons have an oxidization potential that allows oxygen to destroy them, but oxygen becomes neutralized in the process of destroying the poisons—of which there are many. As the poisons are often released deep in the tissues, they work their way outward and oxygen destroys them by working its way inward towards the poisons. When they meet, the poison is destroyed and the oxygen is neutralized.
However, because chlorine dioxide does not destroy much of the poisons that oxygen does destroy, it can go deeper into the tissues where many of the pathogens hide from the oxygen, because the oxygen is used up by the poisons before it reaches the pathogens. But since the chlorine dioxide is not used up by these particular poisons, it can go much deeper into the tissues and thus the pathogens cannot hide from the chlorine dioxide. Chlorine dioxide has 2.5 times more capacity to kill pathogens than oxygen. What this means is that a small amount of chlorine dioxide is equal to a much larger amount of oxygen and other oxidizers. It may not be as strong, but it has a larger capacity to do what it does.
MMS/CD and Nutrition Programs
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)It is wise to thoughtfully maintain a nutrition program adequate to maintain your immune system. MMS/CD takes unwanted pathogens and parasites out of your body with great efficiency, but it provides no nutritional minerals or vitamins. It is important to maintain intake of friendly micro-organisms (acidophilus, and other flora). MMS/CD itself does not kill intestinal friendly micro-organisms but forceful diarrhea can sometimes reduce their numbers. Similarly, it is important to maintain intake of minerals, especially calcium and magnesium.
Now, overall, I suggest that if one is doing a standard MMS/CD protocol, initially it may be beneficial to not worry about nutritional intake and supplements—but let the MMS/CD do it’s thing. This is for a time however, usually up to three weeks, the typical duration of the standard Protocol 1000. But there comes a time when one must pay close attention to nutrition because nutritional intake is critical to the immune system. Of course, the best nutrition is through good, clean, pesticide free “real” food if you can get it that way. Daily sunshine on the skin will maintain your vitamin D or, but if you rarely see the sun, you may consider getting your “D” with supplements which are essential for maintaining the immune system. While MMS/CD is in my opinion, the most potent germicidal agent on the planet, only the immune system produces healing and maintenance of health.

A Basic Fundamental for Dosing with MMS (Chlorine Dioxide)
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)Repeated small doses of MMS/CD are more effective than large morning and evening doses. It has been demonstrated more than 1000 times that small doses administered often, up to once each hour, are more effective than large doses administered once or twice a day.
We now know that the chlorine dioxide chemical generated by MMS/CD does not remain in the body more than one or two hours at most. The size of the dose does not seem to make a great deal of difference to the amount of time that MMS remains active in the body. That basically is because it doesn’t matter if it is a large amount or small amount, it still deteriorates into mostly just table salt in an hour or two.
So in reading the various methods of using MMS on the internet, keep in mind, it is going to be much more effective to take MMS/CD either each hour, or every two hours, and with smaller doses that will be equal to, or sometimes maybe larger than, one large dose.
If you are in the habit of taking larger MMS/CD doses only in the morning and evening as was suggested in the past, MMS/CD will still cleanse the body of microbes and pathogens. However, new research clearly reveals that a smaller but continuous circulation of ClO2 prevents regrouping and reproduction of pathogens, especially in situations where you are fighting a specific health issue, whether a cold or herpes or hepatitis, or cancer and so on.
After you are cleaned out, a maintenance dose is still the same as always, 6 drops a day of activated MMS (chlorine dioxide). That’s for older people over 60, and 6 drops two to three times a week for younger people.
A Powerful Deodorizer and Germicidal Agent For Home and Office
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)If you choose to put activated MMS into a dehumidifier or room fogger, keep the MMS/CD mixture at no more than 20 activated drops per gallon of water. (Must be activated in a cup with a three minute wait before dropping it into the water tank.) People have written asking about this. They want to use the humidifier because ClO2 is a powerful deodorizer and air purifier. Remove canaries and parrots and other pets from the room.
It is best not to sleep in the room where the humidifier is fogging the room with ClO2 in the mix. Your lungs pick up the ClO2 gas (which is beneficial) just as readily as they pick up oxygen. But while the ClO2 is received willingly by your lungs and red blood cells, you could unknowingly reduce oxygen intake and suffer harm. Remember this also if children are playing or sleeping in the same room. A limited amount of ClO2 in the air would be helpful for children and adults, but only if alert people are present and are knowledgeable about the nature of ClO2 as a germicidal agent.
It is equally effective to rid a closet or room of mold, odours, or germs if you set a 10-drop mix of activated MMS on a saucer or cup in the middle of a closed room and let the ClO2 gas arise out of the liquid naturally. Do not add any water in this case. Do not exceed the suggested amount. It’s more effective and safer to do several repeated room cleansings every hour than to release too much ClO2 at one time into a closed room. The odour does not linger and will not harm cushions, curtains, or lampshades. After 2 hours, the odour will have sacrificed itself and any room odours will be gone. If the normal smell from shoes and clothes in a closet are still present, then a second ClO2 saucer or cup should be repeated.
ClO2 gas is a powerful deodorizer and germicidal agent. Drifting through the air, it will eventually kill all germs in the air and in furniture fabrics. After about two hours, the ClO2 gas disappears. It deteriorates into two molecules of water vapour. When using MMS as a room deodorizer or fungus eliminator, close the room doors and remove all pets and birds from the room for one or two hours.
Taking Too Much MMS
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)MMS does not make people sick unless they take too much. I think probably the biggest mistake that continues to be made in using the MMS/Chlorine Dioxide Protocols is going too fast. I am talking, of course, about both MMS1, MMS2, and CDS and CDH.
Again and again I encounter people who were either sick themselves or were helping someone else who was sick, and they used too much MMS/CD which resulted in the sick person becoming even more sick, or rather having an additional discomfort of nausea or diarrhea which added to their present discomfort. This sometimes results in the parties giving up before resolving the sickness. This situation can be avoided!
I have mentioned nausea and diarrhea in my books, but although I say that nausea and diarrhea are not usually a bad sign when taking MMS/CD, it can be avoided. Feeling worse after taking MMS/CD is only caused by one thing, and that is taking too much. What I mean is taking too much at one time. Please remember that MMS/CD can destroy pathogens in large numbers in the body which in turn can dump large amounts of dead pathogens and their poisons into the system. When this happens it can cause nausea, diarrhea, and other forms of discomfort which usually only last for a few hours, but this can be very distressing. This is commonly known as a healing crisis, but it can be avoided, or greatly minimized.
Protocol 1000 which is simply taking a maximum of 3 drops of MMS1 an hour for 8 hours a day for three weeks can sometimes cause nausea and/or increased illness for a time. But please understand, I don’t usually suggest starting off with taking 3 drops an hour. The sicker (more toxic) the person is, the smaller the beginning doses should be. I suggest starting out with the Starting Procedure in my book—which suggests starting out with ¼ drop an hour, but one could go so far as to take as little as 1/16th of a drop of MMS/CD each hour to begin with. (Note: For directions on how prepare a fraction of a drop dose i.e. 1/4th or 1/16th of a drop dose of MMS/CD see the MMS Health Recovery Guidebook, pages 79-84) And in such a case, one would slowly work up to a maximum dose of 3 drops an hour.
The cardinal rule is if one feels nausea, or is getting a little sicker, or experiencing diarrhea or any other discomfort after taking some MMS/CD, he should reduce the next one hour dose by 50%. MMS is not supposed to make you feel worse, it is supposed to make you feel better. There may be a thousand reasons why you think that feeling worse is OK or it is necessary, but take my word for it, please, until you have a lot of experience, it is not necessary.
Many people have taken MMS/CD and immediately felt more nausea and recognized the nausea as caused by the MMS/CD and yet they continue to take MMS and even increase the dose while feeling terrible. Well, they finally got better and were feeling great when the illness was gone. That is great and I commend them for continuing through with it, but the discomfort along the way is not necessary. You can get well and come to full health without getting sicker along the way. I say, go low and slow and build up–and I can’t say it enough! Follow the Three Golden Rules of MMS/CD.

Safety Tip for Making CDS
/by Jim Humble (1932-2023)When mixing CDS up in a glass bottle, make sure the water is in the bottle first, otherwise it can explode. In other words, put the bulk of water in the jar first. (This is the water that the chlorine dioxide gas will go into), then put the wine glass, or the smaller glass you are going to use for the mix of MMS and activation drops in next. You do not want to put the activated drops into the jar that does not have the water in it yet.
