At 95 years old, I’ve spent my life solving problems, whether it was designing motorcycles, improving engineering solutions, or tackling health challenges. If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that the best solutions are often the simplest, and that’s exactly how I see chlorine dioxide.
Let me start with my own battle against Lyme disease—a disease far more insidious than people realize. When my hands stopped closing properly and my muscles weakened, I knew something was deeply wrong. But what made my case unusual was that I never got the classic tick bite. Instead, I had a mosquito bite that wouldn’t heal for six months. That’s when I realized that Lyme isn’t just a tick-borne disease—it can come from mosquitoes, fleas, mites, even personal contact. The culprit? A spirochete, one of the nastiest types of bacteria, akin to the ones that cause syphilis and relapsing fever.
Here’s something people don’t talk about: Lyme disease isn’t just one disease. It manifests differently in different people. My symptoms were severe muscle weakness and swollen hands. My wife had digestive problems instead. Spirochetes invade the weakest parts of the body, meaning that in the same household, every person can have Lyme, but no two cases will look the same.

For three years, my hands wouldn’t close. I tried various treatments, but nothing worked—until I discovered chlorine dioxide, commonly known as MMS (Master Mineral Solution).
At first, I made the mistake of taking too much—six to eight drops at a time—which made me feel awful. It turned out that the right way to use it is low and slow. I settled on taking three drops every hour for eight hours a day, and within three weeks, my hands could close again.
I continued using it for a full year to make sure the Lyme was completely gone. Since then, I’ve maintained my health by using CDS (chlorine dioxide solution) a couple of times a week.

What Else Can Chlorine Dioxide Do?
Over the years, I’ve seen chlorine dioxide work on more than just Lyme disease. It’s helped with diabetes, malaria, and even cancer, though I’m careful not to make medical claims. What I can say is that it’s an excellent detoxifier. It cleans out pathogens, breaks down biofilms, and removes toxins from the body.

Jim Humble, the man behind MMS, was brilliant in how he introduced it. If he had marketed it as chlorine dioxide from the start, it would have been banned immediately. Instead, by calling it MMS and spreading it quietly, he ensured that millions of people got access before authorities tried to shut it down.
The reason chlorine dioxide is so powerful is that it’s a selective oxidizer. It targets harmful pathogens while leaving healthy cells untouched. Unlike pharmaceuticals, which can have severe side effects, chlorine dioxide breaks down into simple salt and oxygen after doing its job—nothing toxic left behind.
If you’re dealing with chronic illness, especially something as sneaky as Lyme disease, don’t give up hope. There are solutions out there, and chlorine dioxide is one of the most effective I’ve found in my 95 years.
The key is to start slow, listen to your body, and be patient. Healing takes time, but if it can bring back the function in my hands after three years, I’d say it’s worth considering.
As always, I encourage people to do their own research, stay open-minded, and focus on what works—not what’s most profitable for the pharmaceutical industry.
Here’s to finding solutions that actually work.
