Re: Tom -- clarification post?

Hello ,

Correct. The most effective way to activate sodium chlorite with 10% citric

acid is to use it in a 1:1 ratio and let the activation continue for 10 minutes.

Tom thank goodness for you!

Why is Jim Humble's info not correct in this regard -- did I read/hear that he

was using vinegar as the activator?

Hello ,

I believe that Jim Humbles information about activation is not correct because

he doesn't understand the chemistry involved with acidified sodium chlorite...

He started using vinegar as the activator because he new that was available

throughout the third world countries. His 5:1 activation ratio is pretty good

for vinegar, but citric acid is a different chemical. Different acids react

with sodium chlorite differently, so you have to do testing to determine the

most effective ratio of the acid you use. I believe Jim Humble did some testing

with vinegar and simply thinks that all acids behave the same.

Now that he has his training center established, I hope that they will spend

some time testing various solutions. When he " discovers " proper activation

ratios, he will issue a new protocol to incorporate them. It only took me a few

months to figure this out, but I have a background in testing and outside of

industrial applications I don't think this information is generally known.
