Simply explanation is--if you are really sick, use the activated. If you are not ill and wanting to stay that way, use unactivated. If it's a few drops in water, it more or less winds up being stabilized oxygen, which many people have taken daily for years. No colds, flu, etc.
Still, I would make sure to take some C and other antioxidants every day, as even in dilute form, chlorine dioxide is an oxidant. I'm sure Tom will have a much better explanation than my feeble attempt.

Would someone please explain this simply?
