Crohn's disease and detoxification.
The Parasites post looked at the idea of Crohn’s disease being associated with a bacterial parasite called MAP (Mycobacterium Avium sub-species Paratuberculosis). When I discovered this I went on an intense detoxification program using The Beck’s Protocol. However, another option for detoxifying the body is Chlorine Dioxide, or more accurately ‘CDS’ (Chlorine Dioxide Solution). ‘What?’ I hear you say. Maybe it’s better you hear it from the inventor himself, Andreas Kalcker;
‘CDS is a concentrated 0.3% (3000ppm) aqueous solution of chlorine dioxide, with no sodium chlorite (NaClO2) content in solution and has a neutral pH.
According to in vitro and in vivo studies, chlorine dioxide in the form of CDS is broken down to salt (in minimal amounts) and oxygen in the body. Therefore, CDS is able to increase oxygen levels in the blood, whether used orally or intravenously. At the same time, it eliminates pathogens due to its recognized biocidal capacity and rapidly reduces metabolic acidity, which is the true cause of most diseases known today.’ Source
Controversy
Some claim CDS is a form of bleach and therefore dangerous for human consumption. However according to a study called ‘Chlorine dioxide-based oxidation processes for water purification: A review‘ published in the Journal of Hazardous Materials on 15 August 2022:
‘Chlorine dioxide (ClO2) has emerged as a broad-spectrum, safe, and effective disinfectant due to its high oxidation efficiency and reduced formation of organochlorinated by-products during application.’
In fact it does not have a single molecule of chlorine in the solution:
‘CDS is not chlorine (Cl2), bleach, hypochlorite (NaClO) or sodium chlorite (NaClO2), nor does it contain them. Nor is it MMS, CD or a mixture of 2 components; it is just pure chlorine dioxide gas dissolved in water. In fact, chlorine dioxide technically does not contain a single molecule of chlorine ! It is finally converted after intermediate reactions into a chloride ion and oxygen. Sodium chloride is common salt and oxygen and both are essential for our body.’ Source.
What does it do?
‘CDS eliminates bacteria, viruses, fungi, prions and also virus spike by oxidation, just as it happens in our body with macrophages and not by intoxication like antibiotics. Simply put, pathogens are incinerated.‘ Source.
Independent evidence?
Other than the citations above there are numerous websites available where you can explore the benefits and controversy further. Maybe try theuniversalantidote.com first. It’s written by a guy who started out as a sceptic but discovered the long history of the success of chlorine dioxide in its various evolutionary forms. The site is packed with content including a well made documentary to help you decide whether this may be of benefit.
Comment
I discovered CDS in 2021. I’d heard of a previous version called MMS (Mineral Miracle Solution) when considering how to clear the MAP from my body but it seemed ‘clunky’ so didn’t pursue it then. After completing many hours of research, read widely and taking one of Andreas Kalcker’s courses, I purchased the kit and learnt how to make it. I now take it at a ‘maintenance dose’ to keep my body clean of parasites.

On balance, if I were starting again with Crohn’s and needed to detoxify my body, I would probably begin with this option but I make no recommendation – both CDS and Beck’s are very much ‘off-piste’ when tackling Crohn’s disease so it really is essential that you do your own very thorough research.
