== HOW DOES CDS AFFECT THE INTESTINAL FLORA? ==
After 17 years of extensive research, we currently possess no substantial evidence indicating that it has any negative impacts on the intestinal flora or microbiome. CDS, which stands for chlorine dioxide solution, is absorbed primarily in the stomach because it exists as a gas that is dissolved in water. 

The mechanism by which CDS operates is largely related to pH levels; generally speaking, harmful pathogens tend to thrive in environments with a more acidic pH compared to the rest of the body, as well as the beneficial bacteria that typically coexist symbiotically within it. 

Furthermore, even if it were to eliminate certain bacteria, it does not lead to an imbalance or any form of toxicity in the way that traditional antibiotics often do. This characteristic sets it apart and may suggest a more balanced approach to managing bacterial populations without disrupting overall health.
