Warnings against dangerous Miracle Mineral Solution (bleach, chlorine dioxide)

I think it originated from some fringe church pastor in the US who made claims of curing everything from autism, cancer et years ago.

The church, the Genesis II Church of Health and Healing

Presumably the same pastor that got Donald Trump recommending it for Covid.

Sarah Myhill cites Jim Humble as it’s originator:

ABC news said in October 2016:

The founder of a fringe "church" who had claimed a chemical solution could cure virtually any disease, from autism to cancer to herpes, said he takes it back -- just days after ABC News tracked him down in Mexico to ask about the dangerous game prosecutors say his church is playing with desperate people.

"There are certainly times I have said some things that I probably should have said differently. For lack of a better way to express things at the time -- or because others put words in my mouth, in the past I have stated that MMS cures most of all diseases. Today, I say that MMS cures nothing!" Jim Humble, founder and archbishop of the Genesis II Church of Health and Healing, wrote in a newsletter posted on the church's website Thursday.

I read somewhere that the pastor claimed that he contacted Trump from prison about his so call cure for Covid.

Imagine getting medical advice from a guy in prison for selling bleach.
 
Just registered that Sarah Myhill was posting a recommendation for this bleach derived miracle cure in 2024 citing Jim Humble, presumably after he had been put in prison for promoting and selling it.
 
I like to think she was advising people about correct dosage and how to use it responsibly, if they so choose. Not that I would.

This is very similar to water chlorination using chlorine dioxide, which is used for raw water treatment in the UK. This is probably the source of the unconscious appeal & marketing synergy for some.

Not sure what all the fuss is about though. You probably get more chlorine from a trip to the swimming pool and still end up with a veruca.

On AmazonUK the recommended ingredients are marketed as camping equipment for water purification. So presumably food safe if used correctly.

When camping I never drank water from the environment, except once I boiled sea water for mussel and carrageen chowder, which was quite nice, since I didn't have any salt with me, on Skye. Boiling works quite well, there are a lot of things trying to kill us on this planet.

Which is why chlorination can be a good thing but the dose makes the poison. If you call it drinking bleach it does sound bad but that is one reason I don't drink tap water any more.
