Innovative Uses of Chlorine Dioxide
Started to realize as he was trying it on his cuts and scrapes
and things that it was healing. It was healing everything he put it on.
Um, and he was putting it everywhere.
And I mean everywhere. And, um, it wasn't hurting
anything, it was healing everything, and the more he tried, the more he
realized it was just
working on everything. It was anti-inflammatory and disinfecting and
non-toxic and, um... So he
patented his method of making the chlorine dioxide, which, um,
was a way that-- it, it was a method that was
suitable for use on the body. So it, it was good for wounds and good
for, for the skin. And, um, he patented that, and then he
started the company Alcyde, which actually all--
al like for all, and cide means kill, so all kill.
And it also was a play on Alliger, but, um,
in any case, uh, he started Alcyde and started
testing, um, the germicidal efficacy on
every imaginable microorganism, every bacteria, every
virus, every fungus, every spore, yeast, you name it,
and it was killing everything, usually within seconds.
And as you had mentioned in, in your other piece,
they did hundreds and hundreds of toxicity studies,
um, and,
um, basically found it's non-toxic in the
concentrations that
they were making it at and, um, working on
everything. Um, and
it's, it's rare to have a disin-- it's rare to have a disinfectant
that does not inhibit wound healing.
Most other disinfectants like chlorhexidine that's used,
uh, typical for, um, pre-surgical scrubs and, and, and
wound healing what... They actually inhibit wound healing,
iodine.
Um, chlorine dioxide aids in wound healing
and is this incredible
disinfectant.
So
they were studying all these different applications, doing all this
test work at third-party, um, uh, labs around the world,
working with various, uh, government, um, agencies.
Uh,
CDC, NIH, um, Department of Agriculture,
NASA, as in the work that, um...
You know, NASA knew about it because of the work
that my dad was doing with
Alcyde, and, you know, they coined that term universal
antidote. Um, so, you know, my dad was,
was really an innovator in this field to, to, to, um,
to, to get the word out about chlorine dioxide
and, um...
Uh, let's see. So, um, Alcyde went public and then
eventually got bought out and, um,
my dad knew at that point that it wasn't being,
um,
it, it wasn't being utilized in all the ways
he knew it could, because he, he
knew the versatility and the potential.
And, um, so he had a non-compete that once that was over,
