Guest guest Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 When is it OK to believe the FDA?http://www.fda.gov/NewsEvents/Newsroom/PressAnnouncements/ucm220747.htm Section Contents Menu Newsroom Press Announcements 200920082007200620052004 - FDA NEWS RELEASEFor Immediate Release: July 30, 2010Media Inquiries: Elaine Gansz Bobo, 301-796-7567, elaine.bobo@... Consumer Inquiries: 888-INFO-FDAFDA Warns Consumers of Serious Harm from Drinking Miracle Mineral Solution (MMS)Product contains industrial strength bleachThe U.S. Food and Drug Administration is warning consumers not to take Miracle Mineral Solution, an oral liquid also known as “Miracle Mineral Supplement” or “MMS.” The product, when used as directed, produces an industrial bleach that can cause serious harm to health.The FDA has received several reports of health injuries from consumers using this product, including severe nausea, vomiting, and life-threatening low blood pressure from dehydration.Consumers who have MMS should stop using it immediately and throw it away. MMS is distributed on Internet sites and online auctions by multiple independent distributors. Although the products share the MMS name, the look of the labeling may vary. The product instructs consumers to mix the 28 percent sodium chlorite solution with an acid such as citrus juice. This mixture produces chlorine dioxide, a potent bleach used for stripping textiles and industrial water treatment. High oral doses of this bleach, such as those recommended in the labeling, can cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and symptoms of severe dehydration. MMS claims to treat multiple unrelated diseases, including HIV, hepatitis, the H1N1 flu virus, common colds, acne, cancer, and other conditions. The FDA is not aware of any research that MMS is effective in treating any of these conditions. MMS also poses a significant health risk to consumers who may choose to use this product for self-treatment instead of seeking FDA-approved treatments for these conditions. The FDA continues to investigate and may pursue civil or criminal enforcement actions as appropriate to protect the public from this potentially dangerous product. The FDA advises consumers who have experienced any negative side effects from MMS to consult a health care professional as soon as possible and to discard the product. Consumers and health care professionals should report adverse events to the FDA’s MedWatch program at 800-FDA-1088 or online at www.fda.gov/medwatch/report.htm.# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 6, 2010 Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 If this treatment option would become widely known and used by the general population that would be devastating for the medical-pharmaceutical complex. The FDA has a long history of jailing and otherwise neutralizing inventors of effective natural remedies and therapies that harm the drug industry, and Humble, as an American, tries to protect himself by remaining in hiding in Africa or Central America. http://www.rexresearch.com/humble/humble.htm --- In , Stauffer <gsgkill@...> wrote: > > > When is it OK to believe the FDA? > http://www.fda.gov/NewsEvents/Newsroom/PressAnnouncements/ucm220747.htm > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Section Contents Menu > > > > > > > > > > > > > Newsroom > Press Announcements > 200920082007200620052004 > > > > > > > > > > > > - > > > > > > > > > FDA NEWS RELEASEFor Immediate Release: July 30, 2010 > Media Inquiries: Elaine Gansz Bobo, 301-796-7567, elaine.bobo@... > Consumer Inquiries: 888-INFO-FDAFDA Warns Consumers of Serious Harm from Drinking Miracle Mineral Solution (MMS) > Product contains industrial strength bleachThe > U.S. Food and Drug Administration is warning consumers not to take > Miracle Mineral Solution, an oral liquid also known as " Miracle Mineral > Supplement " or " MMS.

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2010 Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 What are the reasons people will not take MMS, (Jim Humble's Chlorine Dioxide Ion formula )? I will try to answer each one and show how the excuses are ridiculous, especially when it has to do with your life. I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but there is a conspiracy and it's motivation is : MONEY! The inventor or discoverer of the formula is a man named Jim Humble. His motivation for sharing this with the world isn't money. In fact, he doesn't sell any of the MMS, (Miracle Mineral Formula). His only source of income is the revenues from the book, " Breakthrough " . He lives off of the sales and uses much of it to educate and train others on the uses of MMS and how to administer it. In the beginning of his book, he writes that in case of his death, being missing for more than 6 months or detained, the copyright is cancelled and the book becomes public domain! The motivation clearly isn't money. See Jim Humble's testimony on video at: . Let me now try to answer the following excuses. 1. It doesn't have FDA approval. First of all, let me start by asking you to check out how many of the last FDA directors became board members or executives for pharmaceutical or medical companies after leaving their positions. Please check it out. No conspiracy? You decide. So you won't take MMS because it is not FDA approved. Well, the fact is, chlorine dioxide has had approval by the FDA for decades for industrial use. Water treatment plants around the world, the meat industry as a cleansing disinfectant, food canning industry, pool sanitizer, in nuclear plants as a scum cleaner in the chimneys, in hospitals as a disinfectant, Anthrax killer, black mold killer, and some medical uses. See medical reports and FDA approved uses at: http://mms-articles.com/MMS-is-it-approved.htm Also, search the internet. I do! Remember those canned foods and meats are consumed by people. In Japan, fish are treated with Chlorine dioxide and eaten raw as suishi. If it works to kill all pathegens in the waters and foods of the world, then why can't it work in the waters of the human body! At small diluted dosis, Chlorine dioxide is very safe to ingest. There are many testimonies and medical reports attesting to it's safety being administered orally , transdermally , intravenously and through the use of enimas. See http://bioredox.mysite.com/CLOXhtml/CLOXprot.htm. It doesn't make sense to not take MMS because of the FDA. Especially, if your life or the life of a loved one is at stake! And by the way, what about the FDA Approved, " Vioxx " ? " FDA-approved prescription drugs injures 2.2 million and kills approximately 100,000 Americans each year, according to peer-reviewed published studies, and more realistic estimates put the number of deaths at over 200,000 people annually in the United States alone (see Death By Medicine for detailed statistics). Vioxx, according to senior FDA drug safety researcher Dr. Graham, appears responsible for the deaths of over 60,000 Americans, and further deaths due to beta blockers, antidepressant drugs, statins and other medications continue to mount by the hour. " excerpt from : http://www.naturalnews.com/019497.html. Just a note. It cost 100 million dollars or more to get FDA approval!!! It's all about the money! Not safety, first! Jim Humble solicited help from the Bill Gates foundation and was rejected based upon no FDA Approval! Wow! What a shame! A cure for malaria, rapidly at that, and money gets in the way.! How could an old retired inventor/scientist come up with that much money? That is how a lot of very good medicines are kept back from benefiting the world. On the other hand, a powerful phamacuetical company with the finances gets approval for a drug that killed thousands!!! It just isn't right!!! Take charge of your own health!! Most of the medical doctors today are legal drug dealers and working for Big Pharm! I'm not saying all drugs are bad by any means. Some are cures and others very helpful, but this is soooooo much better and cheaper! Neither am I saying, all doctors are doing this maliciously. They probably believe that , " the benefit is worth the risk " . I personally don't except that, especially with the side affects that are caused by many drugs. " The Best " thing we all can do is, take control of our own health! Stop being lazy. Do research, ask questions and watch how much is motivated by money!! Stop being a laboratory rat!!! It's your life not the FDA's! Thank you Jim Humble for not keeping it to yourself, but telling the world!!! May the Lord protect you and give you wisdom. CONT. I'll cover the next reason this week. ..2. It is too toxic to ingest. 3. My doctor warns against it. 4. Not enough research to prove it's claims. 5.They confuse it with, " Chlorine " . 6.Just another natural supplement, it won't work. 7.It taste and smells horrible. See how MMS,(Chlorine Dioxide), works in the blood! - http://jimhumble.biz/biz-brochure.pdf --- In , " healinghope " <mfrreman@...> wrote: > > If this treatment option would become widely known and used by the general population that would be devastating for the medical-pharmaceutical complex.
