No.

IMHO, the chemistry of F doped polymers is so complex, that we have to dig in deeper.

I do not see that CDS is able to crack the „forever“ chemicals, that is why reluctantly a “No” is above. 

The only chance I see is some precision bio-chemistry approach, where you measure contamination / intoxication load, and have a database and molecular design machinery like mini reactors producing precision chelations exactly binding to the assemblage of PFAS you have accumulated. 

Of course, in general, we say ClO2 has similar, but enhancing properties of water, so it’s ability to solve things is a bit higher. 

We can further heighten this potential by the known detoxing stuff, tailored (in pore-size) nano zeolites (perhaps surface activated for PFAS?), chlorella, or pectin we catalytically or enzymatically crack to the right shape so it passes over intestines to blood and acts as a chelator…

But since I did not take the class in biochemistry, and can not source precise and honest literature on chelators, so far, it is a shot in the dark.   

We know that methylene blue can shortly bind to heavy metals and bring it out of cells, where chelators co-operating can grab it.
Probably, Vitamin C , NAC, sodium gluconate, EDTA or fine healing ice age loess (clay?) could all help. 

But I have only once found a paper dealing with detoxing PFAS.I have lost again. 

My gut tells me to follow the bread crumbs of mercury detox, as I feel unpolar molecules rather get deposited in fatty tissues. 

I have found only one open book.

“Poisoning in the Modern World”
