Showing Original Post only (View all)Parents giving bleach enemas to cure their children of autism? Yeah, that's a thing. [View all]
http://www.ifyouonlynews.com/weird-news/parents-giving-bleach-enemas-to-cure-their-children-of-autism-yeah-thats-a-thing/Today, I learned something new. It wasnt something I wanted to believe was real or anything I had ever wished to learn but it entered my brain and now I cant get it out: Parents are using bleach enemas/drinks to try to cure their children of autism. They force the bleach solution into their own children orally or via enemas both of which can cause serious health issues. Parents report their children fighting, screaming and writhing in pain. The monsters who sell the product online say its a miracle cure. The sane population calls it child abuse....

This screen cap was lifted from a group called CD Autism. The CD stands for Chlorine Dioxide, which is an industrial bleach solution used for water treatment, bleaching wood pulp, and is also used in eradicating bed bugs. The CD Autism quacks push a solution called Miracle Mineral Solution (MMS) which contains sodium chlorite, but when mixed with citric acid (they suggest orange juice), according to its packaging instructions, it combines to make chlorine dioxide. The sellers of MMS make snake oil claims that it can cure anything from Ebola, to AIDS, to cancer, to malaria, to broken bones, to Autism.
MMS is currently on the FDA warnings list because it is toxic and causes diarrhea, fatigue, severe vomiting, and low blood pressure due to severe dehydration.
The solution was the brainchild, or perhaps more of a brain fart, from a man named Jim Humble who is the Archbishop of Genesis II Church of Health and Healing.

I have an idea! Go ahead and vaccinate your kids, and if they get autism, just give them a bleach enema!
