Theara,
Since CDS can be made I'd probably forego the mms for the gums. Also for the gums, you may wish to try coconut oil pulling. it will extract excess bacteria...that's it, but that can help the body heal itself. you'll still need to figure out the source...it could be in the gut too...hard to say.
you may wish to investigate moritzs book
www.amazon.com/Timeless-Secrets-Health-Rejuvenation-Andreas/dp/097927575X/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1351358344&sr=1-2&keywords=moritz+andreas
and, there is no such thing as a cure save perhaps malaria etc...you must stay ever vigilant to remain healthy, to keep a lookout for what may be affecting you, either a diet poor in certain nutrients or whatever the case may be to keep the bad stuff from taking you down.
I believe Clint has some experience with using clay for parasites, but I'm sure he'll chime in here sooner or later to share what he knows.
The above book has a protocol for intestinal cleanses [ keep your options open always ].....I believe CDS may also be used for intestinal cleanses...that is what I'll be taking my cds for...but have yet to take the plunge.
best wishes
