I recently received a copy of a private email Jim Humble sent to a friend in reference to the dosing and measuring of CDS. Jim is still studying the CDS and may eventually come to different conclusions. This is not an official statement from Jim, it is only what he said in a private email in response to a question. Nevertheless, this is at least something for us to go on right now till we have an official statement.
Here is what Jim wrote:
I assume that saline water will hold less chlorine dioxide than distilled or reverse osmosis water. Also all the wrinkles have not been iron out yet. Preparing CDS is a saline solution was for injection into the muscles of cows, although one could also use it orally. The final important figure is that any drink used in any protocol for MMS should read 8 ppm for each drop of MMS in the drink. In the case of CDS no matter what protocol you are doing, you should add CDS until the drink measure in ppm at 8 ppm for each drop that is called for in the MMS protocol instructions. That means a 3 drops CDS drink or MMS drink will measure 24 ppm for both drinks.

In a subsequent email I asked Jim for clarification that a "drink" of MMS is 4 oz. and he said yes. Thus a 3 drop dose of MMS in 4 oz. of water should test at 24 ppm chlorine dioxide. A 6 drop dose will test at approximately 50 ppm. These numbers are consistent with the testing I did and reported here

It is apparent that at this time Jim is treating the CDS just like the MMS so that they should both test the same using the test strips to have equivalent doses. The dose of CDS needed to match a 3 drop dose of MMS will depend on the strength of the CDS. If 1 ml of the CDS diluted with 4 oz. of water tests at 25 ppm, then a 1 ml dose is equivalent to a 3 drop dose of MMS. If 1 ml of the CDS in 4 oz of water tests at 50 ppm (such as CDS made using Jim's instructions) then use only .5 ml to equal a 3 drop dose of MMS.
Jim also said in his response email to me that 1 ml equals 25 drops. Thus, CDS made using Jim's instructions will need 12 drops to equal a 3 drop dose of MMS.
3000 ppm per liter CDS. Steve has said about this strength, "I have also found that 3000 ppm will keep well in 77 degree temps, with no pressure buildup, or refrigeration." (

good strength for commercial sales of CDS. People can use 1 ml to equal a 3 drop dose of MMS and it seems to be stable and safe. If you make CDS and dilute 1 ml of it with 2 oz of water you should get a test of 50 ppm using the 0-500 ppm chlorine dioxide test strips; the color of the reading should match pretty clearly.
5900 ppm per liter CDS (typical result of Jim's video instructions). Myself, Pam and another friend are all getting 5900 ppm CDS using Jim's method. 1 ml diluted with 2 oz of water should give a clear test of 100 ppm and 1 ml diluted in 4 oz of water should give a clear 50 ppm reading using the test strips. Therefore, only .5 ml (12 drops) of this CDS is needed to equal 3 drops of MMS. Based on Jim's response to me I believe he agrees with these numbers.
