MMS-Miracle Mineral supplement for Epilepsy


I was wondering if anyone tried it for their epilepsy.

The FDA went against it but since the fda never approved piracetam as well and most people find it usefull i think its the best interest of the FDA to keep people chroniclly sick for using the drugs

http://miraclemineral.deltahealing.c...s-for-epilepsy

that's the instructions on how to use it for epilepsy

and the link explaining what MMS is

http://www.themiraclemineralsupplement.com/what-is-mms

maybe it can even help with side effects of the anti-epileptic drug's

It's chlorine dioxide, an industrial bleach and disinfectant. It may be okay in your local swimming pool, but I wouldn't go near it as supplement.

HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION: Effects on Humans: Chlorine dioxide is a severe respiratory and eye irritant in humans. Inhalation can produce coughing, wheezing, respiratory distress, and congestion in the lungs. Irritating effects in humans was intense at concentration levels of 5 ppm. Accidental exposure at 19 ppm of the gas inside a bleach tank resulted in the death of one worker. Workers exposed for 5 years to average chlorine dioxide concentrations below 0.1 ppm but with excursions to higher concentrations had symptoms of eye and throat irritation, nasal discharge, cough, and wheezing; on bronchoscopy, bronchitis was observed in seven of the 12 workers. Concentrations of 0.25 ppm and less have been reported to worsen mild respiratory ailments. Two adults who ingested 250 ml of a 40 mg/l solution of chlorine dioxide experienced headache, nausea, abdominal discomfort, and lightheadedness within 5 minutes of ingestion. The symptoms disappeared within another 5 minutes.

You may not trust the FDA but the regulating bodies in other countries have banned it too because this supplement has been found to be basically bleach.

Something to watch for is when a supplement claims to cure numerous unrelated diseases like MMS does then it probably won't work. I've heard them claim to cure cancer, diabetes, chlamydia & now you say they claim to cure epilepsy. Diseases that are so different can't be cured by the same supplement.

If you want more information on it look up "bleachgate" on yahoo.
