(2008 originally published) Chlorine dioxide oxidizes and neutralizes free radicals and cytokines. Ingredients in some of Frontier's 20 CD products include catalysts that cause CD to release immediately, wetting agents, etc. Use high concentrations for: removing scars, tooth whitening, horse hoof fungal thrush, nail fungus (400 ppm). Fairly high: wart removal (200 ppm)--[Comment: Could possibly get FDA approval by listing salicylic acid as the active ingredient, & then also including sodium chlorite and lactic acid activator??] (****Includes urea as a wetting agent to help get into skin****). Medium: itchy scalp fungus. Low concentrations: gynegel against STDs (not FDA approved at that time), acne. Other uses: kill yeast in dogs' ears, canker sores, pet shampoo, exfoliant for women's faces, skin protectant including glycerin for men's hands (callouses, scratches), topical that removes pain of sunburn by oxidizing free radicals & cytokines; vaginal disinfectant, cosmesis, sinus flush that quickly relieves rhino colds and acts more slowly on flu; mouth rinse. Toothpaste kills bacteria faster & oxidizes their sulfur compounds & odors, treats periodontal disease, removes biofilm, & whitens enamel. *****!!!**** Treats Raynaud's Syndrome by opening up blood vessels in hands. Did some testing of intravenous injection of monkey for HIV, but dosed too high so killed too much of red blood cells." "When *chlorine* oxidizes organic compounds, it adds a chlorine atom, making the compound carcinogenic and irritating. Chlorine dioxide doesn't."

*In drinking water & applied to skin. The bactericidal, fungicidal and virucidal activity of chlorine dioxide (CIO2) against 79 bacteria, 31 yeasts and 4 viruses were evaluated under clean and dirty conditions. The safety of CIO2 to chickens given by drinking water or skin spraying was also evaluated. In clean diluent condition, the median lethal concentration (MLC50) of CIO2 against bacteria and yeast was 9.4 and 8.4 ppm, respectively. In dirty diluent condition, the MLC50 of CIO2 against bacteria and yeasts was 39.9 and 24.3 ppm, respectively. The virucidal activity of CIO2 against 100 median embryo lethal dose (100 ELD50) of Newcastle disease virus, avian influenza virus, infectious bronchitis virus and infectious bursal disease virus was 1.2, 1.2, 2.5 and 1.2 ppm, respectively. All the leghorn chickens continuously given with 10 mL of 500, 250, 125, 62.5 or 0 ppm of CIO2 in drinking water or on skin spraying for 7 days were not found showing any abnormality at 14 days post medication. Chlorine dioxide provides high bactericidal and virucidal activity without resulting any toxicity to the chickens.
