Hello, I am a bit conflicted because Andreas Moritz recommended MMS a long time ago and says it is completely not toxic and breaks down into table salt. The idea is that it cleans up the body from noxious chemicals so I don't want it to add any toxicity aside from die off.
But this Dr. Wilson from the nutritional balancing protocol , says MMS contains chlorine, chlorine is toxic for a number of reasons. Cited in this article.
Is he missing something? What do you guys think?
www.drlwilson.com/ARTICLES/CHLORINE.htm" Chlorine compounds are used to purify drinking water around the world. It is most often used in the United States of America and parts of Asia and Europe. Chlorine is excellent to kill many pathogenic bacteria, parasite eggs and other creatures that get into drinking water.
However, it is a very toxic way to purify water. The chlorine is quite reactive and can combine with other minerals and especially pollutants in the water to form chemicals such as chloramines, which are highly toxic. Chlorine compounds are widely used in such products as bleaches, anesthetics such as chloroform, refrigerants, pesticides such as DDT, explosives, dyes, synthetic plastics, refining of gasoline, and in many other industries where it often forms quite toxic compounds, unfortunately.
Chlorine dioxide is sold as a germ-killer. MMS or Miracle Mineral Supplement, is a chlorine compound. It kills germs, but is also toxic and should not be used for more than a few days for this reason, as the toxicity builds up inside. Many ‘oxygen’ supplements utilize chlorine as a transporter of oxygen. These also tend to be a little toxic and are not as good for this reason as ozone or hydrogen peroxide as oxygen delivery systems. Recall that chlorine is a messenger or delivery element."
