Discussing equipment for making CDS - new method

Sofi yes, discard the spent MMS1+CA solution, tightly cap the CDS in the bottle and keep in the cold, dark fridge.

Yes, you need to use distilled water.

Pam is better with dosing, and I think she is busy today.

One ml of 3000 ppm CDS is approximately the same as one activated 3 drop MMS1 dose.

As with MMS1 dosing, you can also make up a day's worth of CDS in a 1 liter/quart bottle.

The basic CDS daily dose is 10 ml of 3000 ppm CDS in 1 liter/quart of distilled water.

Drink that 1 liter/quart diluted CDS solution over a period of 8 to 10 hours in equal size doses.

If you want to start at a lower dose, use less than 10 ml of the 3000 ppm CDS. If no problem at the end of day one, you can add more CDS the next day. You can add as much as 50 ml of 3000 ppm CDS to the daily 1 liter/quart bottle.

Yes, you will be taking 1.25 ml of 3000 ppm each dose when there are 10 ml of 3000 ppm in your daily dose bottle if you drink 8 equal parts.

I prefer to describe the hourly & daily doses a bit differently.

In 10 ml of 3000 ppm CDS there are 30 mg of ClO2 divided by 8 doses is 3.75 mg of ClO2 per hourly dose. If you add more water to your hourly dose, you will still be ingesting 3.75 mg of ClO2.

You should not need to use any juice with CDS as it has no taste. If you notice any throat burning, just add more water to your hourly drink.

Let us know how it goes!

I received my test strips today and I checked my stock bottle of CDS that I made a few days ago. It came out to be 1500 after 12 hours? what went wrong I wonder? Should I double up on dosage to get enough CDS from this batch?

If you did 12mL of each, do another 12ml of each into the same bottle. Then redo for another 12 hrs. I'm not sure what "went wrong" - are you storing it in the fridge?

Arrow, if you describe exactly how you made your CDS, including where the ingredients came from, maybe we can spot a problem. You might have MMSU or CA/HCl that is not made correctly.

Well the mms was made from a global light kit purchased about 4 years ago. If I recall right each kit made 14 bottles, and 14 bottles is what I made, no more, no less. What I used had been in the bottle made up for about 2 years, stored in the dark. The citric acid is NOW brand, 50%, made by mixing one ounce measure of CA crystals to one ounce of distilled water ratio.

So I will make up some more tonight with 24 ml mms and 24 ml citric acid and see what happens.

oh wait, Pam, you are saying to redo the stock I made with more, adding another 12ml of mms and 12ml of CA.... not to throw it out, but redo it, right?

Yes, no need to waste it. Just add more to it.
Pam

So I added more mms and CA via the shot glass method to the stock I had previously made, another 12ml of each. It came out perfect, 3000pm. so for me 24ml of each will make 3,000pm next time. I see now why the test strips are so important. With everyone making their own mms and purchasing sodium chlorite from different sources, and all the possible errors that could be made, there is bound to be variation.... just to many variables things need to be checked by testing.

So to make 6,000 pm 48ml should do it right? (this will not be for everyone... apparently my mms is somewhat weak for some reason)

At some point the efficiency falls off - so you would just need to test after doing it.

Dear All
Thank you for all the info. It is very helpfull. I'm going to make some CDS for the first time using the 12hr overnight system and was wondering if the clo2 gas damages rubber. I've purchased MMS before and after some months, a few black bits can be seen at the bottom of the container. I'm thinking maybe the rubber seals are being consumed or disolved by the MMS. Something I wouldn't like to drink.
Thanks for your kindness.
