It's an interesting question about the deuterium. Separating deuterium from
normal hydrogen is an incredibly difficult and expensive process, so if
NuScience were doing this, either the cost would be gold plated (even more
so than it is - probably many thousands of dollars for a jar) or every
nuclear power generator (or potential bomb maker) in the world would be
beating a rapid path to Nuscience's door. However hydrogen always contains
a very small proportion of deuterium, so one can claim that hydrogen
sulphate does contain some deuterium sulphate :-)

As for Everett Story's links to the Manhattan Project, one of the links you
provided (which seemed to have been written by his family?) seemed to deny
this. In fact he comes across as a bit of a Walter Mitty character (or
maybe this is his competitors who jumped on the bandwagon and embellished
his stories further :-)

So I'd suspect that Cellfood is one of those products that does seem to work
for a fair number of people, it's just that nobody is quite sure how it
works - though maybe NuScience are now getting their hands on more realistic
ideas of this, hence the downplaying of the deuterium label!

I've taken Cellfood for the past 10 years, and since it seems to be such
an odd supplement, have researched it a lot. I do think it is supposed
to contain deuterium sulfate (D2SO4), not sulfuric acid (H2SO4), as I
recall the old 1970's literature on it talking about "heavy water", and
being the same stuff used in hydrogen bombs (and Everett Storey
apparently did have something to do with the hydrogen bomb, that much
appears
to be true). They were quite emphatic that this was NOT the same thing
as sulfuric acid. But you're right -- these days they don't even mention
the word "deuterium" or "sulfate" on the bottle or in their marketing,
as I imagine they don't want to scare people off.

You can put it directly on your skin, undiluted, without problems.

One of the competitor products says their product contains "6.3%
Deutrosulfuric acid". And years ago, the Nu Science website referred to
CELLFOOD as "Deutrosulfazyme".

I have wondered about the "sulfate" part of it, and whether magnesium
sulfate would provide similar benefits, but I get no reaction from epsom
salt baths, while I have quite a good reaction to Cellfood. So I don't
think it's the sulfate...
