 Yeah CDS is definitely my preferred form.

It doesn't burn when inhaled or even sprayed in your eyes unless you have an infection. You can't do that with the MMS because of the unreacted HCl acid.

I put it in a nasal pump to relieve seasonal allergies symptomatically.

I sprayed it in my old dog's goopy eyes yesterday & they're clear today. He didn't like it but it didn't seem to cause him pain.

Just a note - the ClO² doesn't evaporate so much as gas off. ClO² dissolves readily in water but it will gas off the ClO² until the solution reaches concentrations of 3000 ppm of ClO².

The gas form of ClO² is very irritating to your lungs (it burns) but it's incredible at neutralizing odors & killing microbes (eh mould). I had wet camping gear in my car which left a horrible smell. I reacted 5ml of NaCl² + 5ml of HCl in a shot glass & left it in my car 24hrs to gas off. The damp mouldy smell was eliminated.  
 On a practical side, chlorine dioxide is a great hack for avoiding trips to the doctor/hospital.

It seems to kill active/inactive anaerobic pathogens both externally & internally. It costs very little too make & so it's easy & cheap to procure a lifetime's supply.

It works via oxidation & leaves no residue (it breaks down into chloride/salt & oxygen). It also seems to oxidise a lot of toxins & poisons - it's apparently great for food poisoning & detoxing.

It's quite contraversial but it's like Bitcoin in that anyone who's actually used it, becomes an advocate. It works completely differently to bleach (sodium hypochlorite) but is compared to it because you use sodium chlorite to make it. It also has a bit of a chlorine smell to it.

Cahlen talks about it a bit.
