Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)

Chlorine dioxide is a powerful antimicrobial compound with a long history of use – mostly known for its ability to sanitize drinking water (the last 60 years, (being the primary chemical used in municipal water supplies).
Just because governments everywhere made it illegal to treat disease with it does not change the fact that it is effective against pathogens and can be used much more safely than antibiotics.

In 1988, NASA declared Chlorine Dioxide ‘A Universal Antidote,’ saying it was “able to destroy mold and fungus, as well as bacteria and viruses, with minimal harm to humans, animals, or plants.”

CLO₂is probably the most extensively tested disinfectant in history.
It is a safe and effective biocide.
It has been used to eliminate pathogens in water and is excellent for attacking biofilms. That is why it is used in commercial water cooling towers.
It works so well that pharmaceutical companies had to convince governments worldwide to make it illegal to swallow because it would put them out of business.
It is apparently unlawful to promote it as a medicine. Some dentists use it to help with patients’ mouth health.

ClO2, the so-called “ideal biocide,” should be applied as an antiseptic, if it is understood how the solution eliminates microbes so rapidly and does not cause any harm to humans or animals.
Destruction time for a bacterium is on the order of milliseconds in a 300 ppm ClO2 solution.
For all types of pathogens, this time might be even faster.

Thus, a few minutes of contact time (limited by ClO2’s volatility) is enough to destroy all pathogens without cytotoxic effects when used as an antiseptic.
Importantly, bacteria and viruses cannot develop resistance to ClO2 as it reacts with biological thiols, which play a vital role in all living organisms.

Chlorine dioxide is “hungry” to find any object with electrons to give up. That is its magic.
Upon coming near any pathogen, it snaps into contact with the germ, ripping four or five electrons from the wall of said pathogen by way of magnetic force. The internal parts of the pathogen fall apart, unprotected by their normally resistant outer shell. Chlorine dioxide treatments cause site-specific capsid protein backbone cleavage, inhibiting viral genome injection into the host cell.

There’s a HUGE difference between Chlorine (Cl) and Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)

Each ClO2 gas molecule is self-sacrificing.
It is used up after one or two ‘destroy’ missions.
Unlike drug store pills, where you expect a chemical or drug to compromise a hundred things before being used up, this ClO2 gas gets used up rather quickly in a clean burn that enhances recovery from infectious disease.

Because of this biofilm control property, dentists love it because it gets the teeth squeaky clean as the film pellicle that forms on teeth (responsible for plaque adherence) breaks down. Its effectiveness for whitening and freshening does not come from magic but fundamental chemistry. But even more importantly, chlorine dioxide mouthwash used over seven days effectively reduces plaque, tongue coating accumulation, and the counts of Fusobacterium nucleatum in saliva. As one would expect, it is also effective at eliminating bad breath.

Chlorine Dioxide has been approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and is included in the World Health Organization’s (WHO) Guidelines for Drinking Water Quality. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also has approved the use of Chlorine Dioxide in specific food applications. Chlorine Dioxide helps destroy bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites that can make people sick, such as Cryptosporidium parvum and Giardia lamblia.

Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2) destroys through oxidation. Because of the chemical nature of Chlorine Dioxide, it destroys these microorganisms, leaving behind only a few grains of plain table salt, discharged oxygen atoms, and dead organisms, which the body can wash out of the system.

Chlorine Dioxide does a slam dunk on all classifications of pathogens.
Iodine at high dosages does the same.
Campers use both to wipe out all classes of pathogens from untreated water.

Dr. George Georgiou published in the Journal of Bacteriology & Mycology that Chlorine Dioxide effectively eradicated MRSA.
It came out ahead of all other natural substances tested. 
Chlorine Dioxide used in vitro was the main focus of this research.
He is also about to publish his success with Lyme disease, with the stubborn bacteria Borrelia, which forms biofilms to protect itself.
Chlorine Dioxide shreds biofilms to pieces.

Wishing you abundant and continued health
