Mms

[daveaple]

If you are taking MMS by putting a drop in water, do you really need to wait 24 hours like the instructions say? It seems like a long time, and I'm not quite sure what you're waiting for.

Glad you asked that, Daveaple~

I've also been wondering about this and intend to ask on the MMS website my question.

MMS is supposed to be activated by lemon juice, apple cider vinegar or the activator you can buy from them, and then you wait 3 minutes and drink (chased by apple juice or something).

Yet my bottle states to add 1-5 drops to a gallon of water and let sit 24 hours before drinking. That's to purify water. I'm wondering why it doesn't have to be activated as it does when we use it to kill pathogens in our systems. This makes no sense to me.

Which is it? confused

Also I think it would be a good idea to keep all the MMS posts in one thread, don't you?

The mms activated by citric acid is for human consumption, whole different biology. activated in water it is a purifier, we are mostly made up of water but not completely. Read the whole website, fascinating.

Is it okay to use this ReaLemon stuff for activation?

ReaLemon 100% Lemon Juice - 2/48 oz. btls.:...
It says it's 100% lemon juice, but, if you look at the ingredients, it has some preservative chemicals. I don't want the preservatives to mess up the chemistry.

I just use fresh lemon. I don't use apple cider vinegar now because it is fermented.

[daveaple]

Does it matter if you mix it with water or apple juice once it's activated?

I'm surprised it would mention mixing it with apple juice if water is sufficient.

No, it does not matter once it's activated except you should not use anything with ascorbic acid (oranges...vitamin C).

Apple juice helps kill the taste of MMS....

Here's something I just found out according to this website which I think is a significant find for those with candida.
In cooking, besides keeping cut fruits and vegetables from turning brown, ascorbic acid promotes the growth of yeast, and so is also often added as an enhancer to bread dough. In commercial food processing it is used as an antioxidant preservative.
Difference: citric and ascorbic acid

This is disturbing to me because many people might be taking tons of vitamin C for the anti-oxidant benefits and all along, if they have candida, it might be promoting growth!

No WONDER doctors don't want to learn about this stuff!!! There is always so much to learn the more you learn!

Kritts - Did you ever read about this any other place? About the ascorbic acid piece? I honestly do not believe it. Maybe its a promoter at low levels, but I am taking megadoses of vitamin C and only feeling better, not worse. When I did my first C flush, strings of candida came out in my urine, so I was killing it. Also, I just had my 2nd vitamin C IV therapy today and as I was driving home, my nasal passages were clearing... so... I really don't think I was promoting candida growth....

You can do a google search and see that there are several web sites that state that Vitamin C will kill candida. I just did a quick search. Here is one site:
Dr. Zoltan Rona on Vitamin C

" In general, Vitamin C is a weak acid. Candida, bacteria, fungi and parasites are often killed off by high dose vitamin C and this releases toxins into the system. Gas, headache, nausea and lightheadedness sometimes results but this is just a sign of a temporary cleansing or detoxification reaction. The problem can be eliminated by doing a vitamin C flush. This is done by increasing the dose of vitamin C to the point of clear, watery diarrhea which usually results in a nice purge of the majority of these toxins. The vitamin C flush is best done with buffered vitamin C powder, taking a teaspoon in juice every half hour until watery diarrhea is reached. After this bowel tolerance level is reached, the dose can be adjusted to where the bowels feel comfortable. The gas and other detoxification reactions should disappear."

My first vitamin C IV gave me brain fog, which I attributed to some type of detox reaction...
