My wife and I are both taking MMS. We have both ramped up to the 15 drop level.
I'm not sure I'm going to stay at 15 drops 2x or 3x/day for a week. I am getting mild nausea after each dose, but I'm also feeling mildly nauseus pretty much all day. I don't know if this is due to irritation from the acid or what.
Have others noticed a lot of tiredness while on the program? I've had several days where I just conked out in the afternoon, and my wife did once too. That's not entirely unheard-of but fairly unusual.
At this point I'm looking forward to finishing with the 15-drop (or whatever) level and going down to the 6-drop level for maintenance. I'm not enjoying this stuff! I was fairly healthy going into it so I'm not looking for any major symptoms to subside, but improved energy levels would sure be nice...
Have you read the instructions? You are not suppose to go to the level where you have nausea. Its not a competition. You are suppose to stay at the dosage just under where you get nausea. Read the instructions carefully. You should consider stopping for a full day then start again at half the dose you are currently taking. Look at the stickies on the top of the MMS forum for instructions, you also may want to try taking it in a capsule as instructed there.

Yes, I read them. I've backed off to 12 for today and will back off more if it still bothers me.
It's not debilitating "carry a bucket everywhere" nausea like I saw described in the writeups, which was why I didn't back off right away. It's just a "gag, I feel icky" level. For 10-20mins after taking the dose it's a bit worse, then it settles down to a general sour-stomach feeling that lasts for hours -- generally through the next dose, so I've been feeling crummy most of the time for days.
Maybe that's contributing to my tiredness. I'll keep backing off until I don't experience ANY nausea. That will be a pleasant change!!
BTW I never really hit diarrhea. My stools have been quite loose for 4-5 days now, but not what I would generally consider diarrhea and only once a day.
Do not take that much in one dose.
Take 3-4 drops every few hours.
If you were fairly healthy before MMS then don't take it at all. Give it to someone else.
This is what really bothers me. Something gets from Africa to America and people take it like candy.
There are countless ways to increase your energy that have been mastered and perfected decades before sodium chlorite was realized.
Eat healthier. Take supplements. Exercise. Do breathing exercises. Etc.
Jeremy, maybe you didn't read the whole thread. This guy has an infection that he has been battling. Supplements will likely do nothing for him. He's had a lot of pain and suffering.

There is no mention anywhere in this thread of any kind of infection.
I would think supplements benefit anyone who takes them, especially in today's world of processed canned chef boyardi and Micky D's.
The only infection I've been battling is some low-grade fungal issues on my feet -- but because of the variety and stubbornness of those fungal problems, I suspect I may have a more systemic fungal issue. I was hoping MMS might help to clear that out. Plus I've traveled to tropical countries a number of times, and it's not impossible that I might have parasites of some kind. (Might explain my low energy level, tiredness, inability to gain weight, etc.) MMS made sense for that too.
I gave up on MMS for the same reason as you have written about here - I was getting fatigued on the stuff at 14 drops and concluded it was no use at all if you were trying to hold down a day job and lived an active life!
I also had a cold at the time and was thinking it would shift that fast - having heard all the claims about MMS but it took several days for the cold to go (in which it could have done so without the MMS) and it seemed more trouble than it was worth it for me.
Being tired while taking a high dose of MMS like 10 to 15 drops might be due to low iodine in the body. Thyroid glands are responsible for detoxing waste, but it need good amount of iodine to do the job properly.
It is important to maintain healthy level of B-Complex, Vitamin C, Vitamin A/D and iodine in the body. Best way to get iodine is Kelp.
Your body do drain vast amount of vitamins/minerals when doing a lot of detox, killing off parasites etc.
This is what I take:
25,000 iu (10,000 iu Vitamin A and 15,000 iu beta carotene)
1000 iu Vitamin D-3
1000mg to 2000mg Vitamin C
100mg B-Complex
Kelp
... and a lot of water.
As for cold, you are better off breathing in the MMS vapor (2 - 3 drops activated in a cup) and breath in 4 to 5 times. The lungs are one area that is difficult to deal with because the parasites hang onto the interior wall of the lungs. Breathing in the vapor of MMS will kill the parasites off and you can tell by the indication that your mucus coming out by coughing up involuntary. That WILL keep cold or flu away.
i am doing the MMS cleanse and starting to feel extremely tired on just 7 drops !
I have always been defiecient in Iodine so will increase my iodine levels
Thankyou

oops messed up and got threads confused.... but it turns out he has fungus anyway... and possibly paraites.
and yes, vitamins are good for you.
You can always take mms unactived if its too difficult to handle activated.
2 to 3 drops should do it but things will take longer to clear.

Just my $0.02 here - (note to the squeamish - explicit descriptions ahead!)
IMHO, the tired feeling (I've felt it too, but not constantly) is indicative of the body diverting energy to deal with something. The "something" is likely to be the elimination of dead pathogens in large quantities, especially when at higher MMS dose levels. One signal that this was taking place (for me, at least) is the odor of my feces. When I was a kid, I would collect insects, and I thus became familiar with the smell of dead and decaying insect bodies. Feces smell bad sometimes, but I hardly ever have noticed them smelling like dead insects. During MMS dosing, however, I noticed that almost every BM began to smell that way. To me, this odor is indicative that something dead is being eliminated, something that wasn't in the feces before.
For the record, I'm vegetarian, with occasional seafood. Seafood BMs are fishy, but not like dead insects, so the odor cannot be attributed to seafood.
Also, a note about "healthy" people - most people who consider themselves to be healthy may not be truly healthy, but merely "not sick". If we can believe what Jim Humble has described in his writings, we all carry pathogen loads to a greater or lesser degree, depending upon age and personal care over the years we've been living. "Sickness" simply means that the existing pathogen load has become greater than what the body can handle, so illness manifests. If the load is not decreased or eliminated, health deterioration continues.
So unless a person has already undergone a thorough detox, even "healthy" people should benefit from MMS therapy.
As far as DMSO with MMS are concerned, my understanding is that DMSO is a free-radical scavenger, while ClO2 is an oxidant. So long as ClO2 is not a free-radical, the DMSO won't neutralize it.
See my thread on MMS and niacin for an alternative way to experiment with getting MMS more thoroughly distributed in body tissues.
Any suggestions on what other supplement I should take besides the MMS? What about an acidophillus or Candida Threelac? I did feel very tired the first couple of weeks on taking MMS but again thats probably the die-off in my body but I will say that one day I woke up without the foggy brain and lots of energy.
I am back to the foggy brain and lack of energy but I know thats because I was having jam on my pitta bread for brekkie (the jam contained not sugar but unsweetened grape juice concentrate). So need to leave off any form of sweetness altogether! The MMS works - that I do know and its done me good so far and I will continue to take it. Like Jim Humble says 'little attention often' so I have 4 drops in the morning and then at lunch time and then again before I go to bed. S0 will stick with that and if need be will up that if theres still the fight going on in my body with all them critters.................But By God's Grace I deisre to be healthy and well!
