Guest guest Posted August 31, 2000 Report Share Posted August 31, 2000 For a simple demonstration of acidity inhibiting oxidation: Cut an apple in half. Dip half in lemon juice and leave the other as the control. Note how quickly the control starts to turn brown. It turns brown due to oxidation. The one dipped in lemon juice (acid) retains its color much longer. This doesn't answer the why, but allows one to observe the process in action.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 jim states that chlorine dioxide (MMS) destroys pathogens by oxidation. Can someone shed some light on the entire chemical sequence as oxidation creates free radicals which in turn are the very cause of cancers and aging itself. Many of us are taking as many antioxidants as possible to minimize free radical damage to our bodies. Some important information is missing from Jim's explanation in his book.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 , I don't know how it works, but a number of programs use oxidation to deal with cancer. The Budwig Program (flax oil/cottage cheese diet) works by oxidation, and taking anti-oxidants blocks its effects. I've seen studies where the corrective effects of EFA's on cancer by fish oils were slowed down or stopped by taking anti-oxidants. It all makes me wonder whether taking anti-oxidants might slow down the effect of MMS In the original use of MMS in third world countries, I doubt people were taking anti-oxidants. In the Budwig Protocol, antioxidants as part of food are okay, but not taken in larger doses as supplements. I think this is a very interesting line of thought. It may be that in cases where MMS is less effective, people are taking high doses of antioxidants. Angel > > jim states that chlorine dioxide (MMS) destroys pathogens by > oxidation.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 -My real concern for all of us is the remaining fact that oxidation causes free radicals and free radicals create oxidative stress which leads to cancer and many other degenerative diseases...... -- In , " vilikangel " <vilik@...> wrote: > > , > > I don't know how it works, but a number of programs use oxidation to > deal with cancer.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 OK every one. I read on the post about people having problems with the MMS protocol and having questions about apparent contradictions. I say--- read the FREE book, listen to the FREE CD's they are all very informative and address all the problems and questions and give the answers to why certian people are having problems and what to do about them.
