What is MMS (miracle mineral solution) & CDS (chlorine dioxide solution)?

How I discovered MMS (and then CDS).

My introduction to MMS was in Bali in 2017 when a persistent parasitic problem (Blastocystis hominis and Dientamoeba fragilis, whom I know many of my clients and readers have also had relations with!) just would not go away PERMANAENTLY. I tried treating it with antibiotics (breaking my heart) as well as every herbal, naturopathic and nutraceutical effort known to man. My diet was almost consistently flawless in terms of what needs to be done for clearing parasites. I could knock it on the head for time, but symptoms always came back. I am pretty slim/small, but I had to wear loose big clothes to hide my tummy that looked 6 months pregnant. It really sucked, especially because as nutritionist and healer, I really felt I should be able to conquer it.

Then my trusted friend and colleague, Peggy at Bali Healing, put me onto MMS. 10-12 days later my little parasitic freeloaders were gone and never again graced me with their overgrowth.

Years later, in the middle of Covid and growing wariness of media reporting and big pharma, I started hearing about this magical smelly stuff called CDS. When I learned that it was created from MMS, I was all ears.

What is CDS?

CDS stands for ‘chlorine dioxide solution’. It is an oxidant, which means it adds an oxygen molecule to certain substances, causing them to self-combust. A similar example of oxidation is neutrophils carrying out phagocytosis as a protective immune response.

CDS is a yellow liquid which holds chlorine dioxide (CD). It has a neutral pH. It does not contain sodium chlorite like MMS does. A standard healing dose of CDS is 10ml diluted in 1 litre of water, consumed in 10 equal 100ml parts once every hour, over the course of 10 hours. CDS is made from Cl02 (chlorine dioxide gas); which is produced when sodium chlorite (NaCl02) is activated with hydrochloric acid. The process of making CDS involves suspending the gas in distilled water, which is what makes CDS yellow. If the gas is allowed to evaporate from the solution, the water returns to its clear state.

Is CDS the same as MMS?

No, but it is ‘born’ from MMS. You can think of MMS as kind of a ‘stronger’ version. MMS stands for ‘miracle mineral solution’ and it is the combination of sodium chlorite (NaCl02) with citric acid. It was named MMS by Jim Humble who discovered its healing benefits in the amazon when all his colleagues fell ill with malaria. All Jim had on hand was ‘stabilised oxygen’ which is NaCl02 that they used as drinking water disinfectant. Jim successfully rid his team of 40C temperatures and delirium in only 4 hours by having them drink some drops of the stabilised oxygen in water. Not long after this Jim himself fell ill with malaria too and the same solution worked again. MMS is quite literally a miracle solution, though due to containing NaCl02 it can cause diarrhea. This is where German biophysicist Andreas Kalcker comes into the picture, the man who developed CDS out of MMS, as described above, which has the same healing benefits but it much gentler to consume.

Andreas Kalcker has written several books and registered several international patents involving the therapeutic use of CDS. Research and studies to prove the safety and efficacy of CDS can be found at his website www.andreaskalcker.com.

How does CDS support healing and the eradication of pathogenic microbes in the human body?

The magic of chlorine dioxide is due to its relationship with pH. When the CD molecule meets an acid in the body, it breaks into 3 tiny parts – one sodium chloride (common salt), and two oxygen molecules. The oxygen attaches to pathogens (detected by their pH) which then oxidise (or self-combust), changing the environment from acidic to alkaline. There are no other medicines that do this. CD is so tiny, it can travel through tissues in the same way red blood cells can, eliminating small acid pathogens almost anywhere in the body, through gentle oxidation which leaves no harmful biproducts. In this way, CDS is a cheap and effective treatment for an enormous range of conditions.

Safety and toxicity.

CD is a common disinfectant and is patented and used for hundreds of applications in any industry that requires disinfection including the food industry. It has been used for almost a century as a drinking water disinfectant, without causing any harm. 

CD can be used for paper bleaching in extremely high concentrations and in amounts that far far far surpass any amount that a human could or would ingest. And, that is CD – NOT CDS. Mainstream media and pharmaceuticals love to report that CDS is a ‘dangerous bleach to ingest’. It is easy to see why they feel threatened by such a product as it is so widely used and patented, they cannot ‘get rid’ of it, and it’s broad spectrum of uses may invalidate the use of many common pharmaceutical products. I urge you to read the vast amount of safety information and studies regarding safety and efficacy on Andreas Kalckers website.

I have used CDS safely and effectively on a regular basis since 2020, both as a treatment for various ailments, and for health maintenance purposes. I credit CDS for its significant role in my healing journey with a lymphoma in 2024, which you can read about here. During that time I rotated (oral) CDS in intensive weekly protocols, because it contradicts high antioxidant protocols so it had to be separated from some of the other things I was taking. I also used CDS in a nebulizer as well as applying it topically to my neck with DMSO. I have also used it as a ‘prophylactic’ when in Bali where microbial infection or opportunistic parasites can easily strike again. CDS can make you feel a bit crappy when you take it for the first time as you (may) move through ‘die-off’ symptoms, which is when any metabolites or residue from the pathogens being oxidised are eliminated through regular detox pathways. Die-off symptoms are a type of Herxheimer reaction and they usually resemble flu symptoms. Most of the time these symptoms are gone in less than a week. Some people don’t get any die-off symptoms at all, and for others it can be a bit rough until you reach the clear and vital feelings once the CDS has had an impact. For more information about CDS please visit https://andreaskalcker.com/en/cds-clo2.html where Andreas has gone to great lengths to answer questions about CDS.

I also use CDS frequently for my young daughter. She won’t drink it, but I use it topically on her all the time - it has successfully treated moluscum overnight (according to molluscum facebook groups it usually takes a year or more to clear fully), and it helps any inflamed or infected skin issue. When used topically with DMSO it gets into the tissues quickly and it is quite remarkable how fast it works. My daughter and I have also both used CDS through a nebulizer to target lungs and respiratory tissues.
