CDL is a solution containing dissolved chlorine dioxide, a reactive oxidising agent. The figure 0.3% describes the concentration and does not establish medical suitability. Such a solution is neither a food supplement nor a means of self-treating disease.
Follow the intended use and labelling
The expressly labelled purpose, the label and the specific product’s safety data sheet are decisive. Technical disinfection must not be confused with ingestion as a supposed therapy. Disinfectant activity under controlled conditions does not prove a healing effect inside the body.
Do not drink it or attempt homemade mixtures
Do not drink or inhale the solution or administer it internally to animals. Dilution does not make it a safe or effective disease treatment. Do not add acids or other chemicals or attempt activation yourself. Reactions and released vapours can be dangerous.
Store safely and take exposure seriously
Keep it in the original container according to the storage instructions, out of reach of children and animals, and do not transfer it to drinks bottles. Light and heat can affect stability. Avoid unnecessary inhalation of vapours and contact with skin or eyes.
After swallowing, contact a poison information service or seek medical help immediately and keep the packaging available. For eye contact, rinse immediately with water and seek medical advice. Get emergency help immediately for breathing difficulties or severe symptoms. Follow individual professional instructions for further measures.
Frequently asked questions
Does the low percentage make ingestion safe?
No. The concentration establishes neither suitability for health use nor a safe self-treatment dose.
Can CDL replace medicines?
