Thanks for speaking up Marshal...a much better chemist than I who is not a chemist at all.
You put some much needed corners on my round about ramblings.

Actually the documentation from them indicates that the precursor is sold in health food stores as "Stabalized Oxygen", and that is really a misnomer because it was being sold before they knew what it really was doing. When used according the instructions for the MMS, it is actually making ClO2, chlorine dioxide. When mixed with acids such as citric and acetic, it produces chlouros acid, which then breaks down slowly into chlorine dioxide over the next 12 hours. They could all be classified as minerals, that is non organic compounds.
I'm not finding anything where the FTC [or FDA for that matter ] has attacked "Miracle Mineral Supplement", but they might get around to it as a mislabel if they ever sell 200 million dollars worth of product like the "Vitamin O" people have.
Well, ClO2 is approved by the FDA as a disinfectant and sterilizing agent for many things, including beef and chicken. To then claim that it does not kill pathogens, or is unhealthy would put them into a rather untenable position. Also, they have no authority to stop the publishing of a book, when the publisher is not selling the product, nor the seller of the product, if no health claims are made by them. Of course they have done such things as stop the publishing of the books on health, but no legally. Very similar to CS. Well, the reason for publishing the book on it, and telling everyone how to make it would seem rather unclear since the publisher of the book does not make nor sell it. He does give the names of a couple of people who do though, if you don't want to make it yourself. As for me, I am ordering 5 pounds of sodium chlorite to play with. It seems that the copyright notice is pretty telling on the book. It basically says that the book becomes public domain and can be published by anyone for free or for profit if the author is jailed, imprisoned, murdered or turns up missing for over a month. It certainly sounds like at least he thinks he has something valuable. What is produced from what I can determine is chlorous acid, which is unstable and produces a rather even amount of CO2 over the next 12 hours. Pretty neat chemistry actually. Here is what happens.

First sodium chlorite is pretty well unaffected by strong acids, such as hydrochloric acid (stomach acid). So taking it directly is of pretty limited value. However it is converted to chlouros acid by certain acids such as acedic and citric acid on sodium and potassium chlorite (as confirmed by the patent I posted the link to last friday). Once again, chlouros acid is not broken down by stomach acid, so over time it breaks down into ClO2. The fairly evenly produced ClO2 then is taken up immediately by the red blood cells, which are unable to differentiate it from oxygen. They circulate, staying attached to the red blood cells until they encounter something with a reversed charge on it (IE a pathogen or virus), at which time they immediately react with the pathogen, ripping 5 electrons from the pathogen, and killing it by oxidation. Apparently it selectively oxidized pathogens, pretty well like CS does, but also may not suffer from the same limitations of penetration that CS does (possibly getting into nerve ganglia where herpes hides, cartlidges where lyme hides, and the brain where other things can hide). On the down side it does not appear to promote healing by allowing cells to revert to their stem cell state in injured areas like CS does. I believe the toxicity is possibly caused by the replacement of oxygen in the red blood cells by ClO2, sort of like carbon monoxide does. But the 1 ppm therapeutic level if far below what would be required for that to be a problem. The book warns against herx toxcidity though. Similar to CS in that respect, but seemingly much worse with low dosages as it appears to be much faster acting.
