Mom Uses Junk Science To Treat Child With Autism, Shares It Online | NBC News Now

It is not bleach .... you need to educate yourself

I neither believe or disbelieve in this "treatment" but you gave literally no evidence to dispute their claims... That's not journalism nor is it reporting, it's just mud slinging. Thanks for nothing.

Back in 2011, I was a Firefighter medic in metro Atlanta. I was fighting MRSA for 7 years at the time and caught pneumonia at the same time. I was on my death bed. A friend sent me MMS. I took it for about a week. I was cured. I never had MRSA again. I went from my death bed to the gym in about 1 week.

This is a HIT piece.Get the real facts then decide.

You say that "It is not a cure", but what evidence do you have for calling it misinformation or "Junk Science"? Real journalists give evidence, not just predetermined opinions.

It cured me of severe and I mean severe disease. I was completely disabled. Cd was a HUGE piece to my recovery

You need to be more thorough in your reporting, by telling the WHOLE story.

[cphollingdale]

How many big pharma ads were played during the commercials on this one??? lol

[minxbynature]

It’s in drinking water. It purifies water

[shawnmiles]

Brandy have you went and interview these parents in person?

[justinkriz]

Obviously, he made it incorrectly. This is safe I been taking it for almost a year .

We are setting the record straight: Sodium Hypochlorite is the chemical that is often referred to as liquid bleach. Sodium Hypochlorite is found as the main ingredient for Clorox bleach disinfectants. The chemical formula is NaClO.

Primarily used in water treatment applications, Chlorine dioxide is an oxidizer with the chemical formula of ClO2. These are two different chemicals with different chemical formulas. Chlorine dioxide can be used in bleaching applications, but sodium hypochlorite is the chemical that is commonly referred to as liquid bleach.

Brandy, growing up I didn't know of anyone who had Autism, peanut allergies, ect.. the investigation should be into why the EXPLOSION of these diseases?

Hey, if it works, use it. If it didn’t work there wouldn’t be much interest would there.

[shawnmiles]

I know plenty of people who went against "conventional medicine" and have healed themselves. People do some serious research and decide for yourself!

[MrMarshmelloBoi]

This woman is actually a legend for using this. Repairs should recommend this inshAllah

[barbarabrown]

What a terrible person! She should be ashamed of the B's reporting.

[wed-xvtv]

you like rebutting any one trying to find a cure but people like you never tell anyone what might be helpful for these conditions. poor journalism

[MandarinaPink]

It is not an illness and there is no cure.

[turkeyman]

Industrial bleach?? Funny it doesn't have the same chemical composition as bleach? It has chloride in common. My toothpaste, pool, drinking water have that as well! Talk about misinformation.
