Once again we have seen an argument from Sainsbury and Holt along with med safe entirely based on flawed science and flawed arguments against a natural health practice or supplement.
I refer to item in Closeup on MMS. Now in no way do I support the use or claims of MMs my research shows it simple it doesn't work, it may help some because of a belief in the product.
One wonders did they mix the two components and then test what the mixed components now become? I doubt it and that's basic chemistry which they could easily carry out and should have before they rushed to air trying to cause alarm.
One would expect a medical team to present an argument based on science and be able to report on any adverse reactions, there is a adverse reaction reporting establishment in NZ how hard would it have been for them to look them up ?

What the public needs in a case like this is balanced reporting not one sided gobbledygook from a reporter who has no medical knowledge whatsoever and entirely lacks the ability to ask the right questions.
If MMS is a dangerous as they claim then where are the reported adverse reactions due to its ingestion are there any ? I doubt it, the dose is so minute I doubt if an adverse reaction is possible. The ingestion of a glass of town water could well have the same amount of chlorine in as the MMS dose and on top of that other contaminants and fluoride too.
Now let's look at allopathic medicine. In America Drs kill 275,000 a year due to misdiagnosis wrongly prescribed drugs, iatrogenic diseases, unnecessary surgery, surgical errors etc etc. In Australia 10.000, in NZ something like 3000 a year. One in four NZrs over the age of 45 can end up with a more serious condition than they presented with at a Drs surgery (health Dept figures not mine.) So should we blanket ban all allopathic medicine and practice because of these alarming figures because we want to ban a suspect supplement that does not have a reported death or serious illness against its name ? I think not.
