trihalomethanes & haloacetic acids

[Guest guest]

Hello groupAs one of the potential problems (side effects) of using chlorine dioxide for water purification is the formation of THM (trihalomethanes) and HCA (haloacetic acids) which are carcinogenic in large quantities.From wikipediahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_purificationBut then I search the previous posts here on thrihalomethanes and found this study published here which says MMS realeases no thrihalomethanes when 30 to 60 drops are added to the water. /message/1861Now maybe both statements are true, but wikipedia says "carcinogenic" in large quantities. What is large quantities, can anyone help? Or is wikipedia wrong (it gives no reference to a study on this).Btw, has anyone drink water purified using MMS for large periods of time? Is there

any benefit after 2 hours of the release of chlorine dioxide by the activation of sodium chlorite? I read on Jim Humble's protocol that chlorine dioxide will be available after ingestide for 1/2 hours, not more. So if I purify my water, will it stay pure after 1/2 hours? I assume not, bacteria and parasites will have no problem starting to live in there, right? thanks
