Hi Bill,
I'll let Jim answer your questions with excerpts from his new book which I highly recommend you purchase. It is a comprehensive manual on using MMS for a low price (Get it now
www.miraclemineral.org/newebook.php). The general protocol advice would be Protocol 1000.
Heavy Metals Oxidized
MMS oxidizes the heavy metals in the body. I believe this because
there have been a number of tests where the roots of a person’s hair
were checked before and after taking MMS. About two weeks
afterwards, the heavy metals were gone, including mercury, lead, and
others. Testing the roots of hair is a good indication of the absence or
presence of heavy metals. Oxidation of the heavy metals is not the
same as chelating but the results are the same. When a heavy metal is
oxidized, it is neutralized and simply washes out of the body.
Foreign Matter Neutralized
MMS is carried throughout the body, where it neutralizes foreign
matter that is generally poisonous. When oxidized, poisons are
neutralized and they merely washed out of the body. Almost all
poisonous material is easily oxidized. These poisons are attached at
various locations and hinder the body’s function. As they are
oxidized, they are detached and washed out of the body same as the
heavy metals.
Poisons Neutralized
Most forms of poisons from snakes and other venomous animals are
oxidized when adequate amounts of MMS are taken. Most food
poisons found in restaurants or in your refrigerator are oxidized,
which is why one should take a dose every 15 minutes when snake
poisons or food poisoning is involved.

Oxidation Potential vs Oxidation Capacity
One of the amazing things about ClO2 is that its special construction
gives it an unusually high oxidation capacity. The oxidation potential
is weak, but the capacity is that it can draw away 5 electrons.
Think of oxygen as a single-shot, large barrel, high powered
rifle, and chlorine dioxide as a small-barrel hand held
machine gun.
Each chlorine dioxide ion can draw away 5 electrons from any
substance that it is able to oxidize, while oxygen can only draw 2
electrons. So one ClO2 ion can destroy up to 5 molecules. That’s more
than any of the other oxidizers in the body. Amazingly, the only
substances in the human body that it can oxidize are pathogens and
poisonous chemical compounds which are usually heavy metal
compounds. Remember, that’s because of the very low oxidation
potential and the absence of any osmotic pressure exerted
inward by chlorine dioxide on many cells.

As far as heavy metal compounds are concerned, their chemistry
allows them to be oxidized by ClO2 (Chlorine dioxide). While ozone, hydrogen peroxide,
and even oxygen, will oxidize the heavy metal compounds, they
seldom arrive where the metal compounds are. The compounds are
doing their damage deep in the tissues of various body organs. These
3 oxidizers cannot penetrate deeply enough to reach them because
they all have a tendency to oxidize some of the body cells or other
body items before they arrive at the heavy metals.
Chlorine dioxide does penetrate deeply into the tissues
because it is not used up by oxidizing other things before
reaching the metal compounds or pathogens. The fact that
chlorine dioxide can reach deep into the tissues is proof that it
does not oxidize body cells. Further proof is in the fact that
hundreds of thousands of lives have been saved so far.
