what is mms 2?

a friend of mine used MMS 2 purchased from a friend (in Costa Rica) with good result for a skin condition he suffered from. I told him MMS 2 is pool chemicals, but he is having a hard time accepting the idea he was taking pool chemicals. I need some info to send him. We did take MMS 2 at one point but I don't have the info to send him.
he can make his own and save $$.
thaank you dear MMS friends

You can learn all about MMS2 and lots more here .

You may also find some useful information at the home site of this forum.

Hello,
I am trying to get better understanding of MMS2. I get that in 2000 protocol, you are supposed to take the dry product in capsules and drink good amount of water before and after. I also learned that for skin application (bath, spray) you obviously resolve it in water. But what about internal use of the MMS2 solution - powder mixed in water and digested? So far I have not seen anything about that. Would not that be a safer way of taking it, since it is already activated into hypochlorous acid?

.... and what about the water activated MMS2 vapors? Can they be used as MMS1 gas? I am sorry, may be the answer is "there is not enough data on that". But hopefully somebody has a better answer. Thank you.

The protocol says to put the calcium hypochlorite in a capsule and ingest with lots of water. It does not say to mix the powder in water and then drink. If you would like to try that and report back to us, we would have an answer to your question!

I believe the gas from calcium hypochlorite when in water is chlorine gas. Don't think you want to inhale that.

Thank you. Yes, unfortunately the answer is what I expected.
I am not a chemist but I don't think the vapors of MMS2 are chlorine gas. The swimmers would be poisoned in the pool that way.

Routes of Exposure
Inhalation
Hypochlorite solutions can liberate toxic gases such as chlorine. Chlorine's odor or irritant properties generally provide adequate warning of hazardous concentrations.

Calcium hypochlorite decomposes in water to release chlorine and oxygen

Warning properties: Chlorine odor; inadequate warning of hazardous concentrations

Pool shock is usually added to a swimming pool when no one is swimming. Most pools are outside so any chlorine gas will quickly dissipate into air. That is not the case inside a house where we are using MMS2.

Wow, CLO2, thank you for this information and for kindly staying with me on this topic. I am sure other members will benefit from this as well. It looks like this is more complex than I thought.
The info is as much as important as confusing, when I consider the sentence from Jim Humble's book "So there you go – calcium hypochlorite turns to 100% hypochlorous acid when dissolved in water". I don't try to dispute anyone, just wanting to get a better understanding. What I could find on the net were some comments about Calcium Hypochlorite turning into chlorine with a connection to UV light (daylight). Ok, that sounds logical to have the water activation of MMS2 happening only inside of the body but I am still rather confused. Am I the only one? Either way, I think that concludes my MMS2 experiments and I will stick with the protocols for now.
Thanks again.

I keep some bulk MMS2 powder in a pantry and find I have to double bag it or if in a container, I have to put that container inside a second container to keep this chemical away from air. It is very nasty stuff to work with. It rusts any nearby metal and emits odors all the time. Handle carefully!
