TOPIC:

I did notice a difference with the CDS vs the MMS as far as the effects on the throat. The MMS is easier on the throat at a 3 drop dose whereas the CDS is a little more aggressive. So it seems to me that if someone is not trying to create a sore throat for themselves they might want to mix the CDS in some juice instead of water. The taste is fine, but the throat is not too happy.

I am assuming that the 3 drop equivalent dose in water should still be near the 25 PPM range on the test strips?

Throat irritation can happen with CDS because it fully activated whereas MMS1 is about 10% activated externally and the other 90% activation should happen in a normal stomach.

Try holding CDS in your mouth a while and some of the CLO2 will get absorbed into mouth tissue, so less will be passing through your throat. Or use more water to drink CDS doses. I would not suggest to mix with any liquid except water, and preferably distilled water so CLO2 will not be reduced.

Measuring a strong dose of CDS will read higher compared to MMS1 because MMS1 is not very activated externally whereas CDS is fully activated externally.

CL02,

I will try and mix down the 1500 PPM CDS 13.4 ML dose to something that is more palatable. I was hoping to use the apple juice because it does go down a lot easier with that and still fits in a 4 OZ glass. The problem may come up that the extra water gets too much to drink if I'm taking 8 doses a day. So what do most people do?

They probably do what I do when ingesting CDS hourly for 8 hours a day; they visit the bathroom often. Four fluid ounces is not enough water when taking CDS.

A few drops of SweetLeaf brand stevia drops helps with taste and won't kill CLO2.

I don't have any Stevia, but I do have Xylitol sweetener. I will have to look that up and see if it has any vitamin C.

I am noticing my arthritic neck starting to loosen up just a tiny bit. I'm only on the 5th full dose day of Protocol 1000.

I was able to lay face down in bed last night without my neck hurting so much. Normally this is not possible for more than about 60 seconds.

Are you taking CDS for a chronic situation or are you just doing maintenace?

Sorry to bother you again,

I think I may want to make another batch of CDS and use the 4% HCL activator this time. The CDS made with the 50% Citric acid may be the wrong formula to use for some reason I don't understand.

the reason I say this is because I'm getting different results with the test strips depending on which dilution I test at.

For example, if I measure my CDS made with 50-50 Citric acid that tests at 1500 ppm with 60 ML dilution it tests at 25 in 10 seconds which puts it at 1500 ppm. (re - tested it 3 times)

But if I test the same batch with 100ml dilution it still measures at 25 in 10 seconds and this would mean that the batch is at 2500 ppm, so either the test strips are not sensitive enough or it's the citric acid messing with the results?

Anyway, if I believe the 1500 ppm and dose with 13.4 ml of 1500 in 4 oz to get the 3 drop mms equivalent, it is pretty knarly stuff to swallow. That CDS cuts the mucous like nothing else, but it may be a little too much for me with the citric acid activator.

So until I get this figured out I'm going back to the MMS with the 4% HCL in 50% juice and water.

CDS should only contain chlorine dioxide gas (CLO2) in distilled water. So, it should not make any difference which activator you use, except 4% HCL won't produce more than about 2500 PPM when using the 12 ml + 12 ml recipe. That is why I came up with the double infusion method using 5 ml of MMS + 5 ml of 4% HCL (twice) which will produce 3000 ppm when double infused into the same distilled water.

The only way some activator might get into the CDS is if you spill some of the reactor solution into the receiver solution, the distilled water turned into CDS.

Test strips don't have much resolution and only give an approximate idea of the CLO2 concentration. It is important when testing to use distilled water to dilute the CDS, otherwise you will probably get inaccurate readings.

Regarding dosing, start low and work up to what you can tolerate. That can take a week or longer.

You can test Xylitol to see if it reduces CLO2 concentration by measuring a CDS dose in water and then add some Xylitol and test again.

I have been taking CDS by holding it in my mouth over a crowned molar that is bothering me, trying to kill any infection. Mixed some DMSO with the CDS to help drive the CLO2 deeper. Tomorrow I see my dentist and I suspect he will remove the crown and look under it. Not looking forward to that.

I wish I had tried the HCL the first time.

I don't think I spilled anything, but there was no lid on the reactor shot glass, so you never know.

That was what was really confusing. the 60:1 and 100:1 dilution tests both read very close to a "25".

That would be too slow for this go around. I'm trying to get to the 21 days and see what I accomplished.
If that means sticking to the MMS, then so be it.

You can test Xylitol to see if it reduces CLO2 concentration by measuring a CDS dose in water and then add some Xylitol and test again.

The Xylitol does not seem to react hardly at all with the CDS. Maybe a 23 instead of a 25 but that would be worth the change in taste.

Of course, the reactor can't be covered, otherwise the CLO2 gas could not get out and infuse into the distilled water, turning that into CDS.

It would be difficult to see a ppm difference between 60:1 and 100:1 using CLO2 test strips. A photometer would measure the difference, and that is what I use for testing.

That is good news regarding Xylitol. Thanks for testing it.
