Your body is made of NaCl (salt). Just because something has chlorine in its designated title, does not mean that you end up with chlorine gas.

When chlorine dioxide is broken down by the body, you get a chloride ion and oxygen.

If we called water its chemical name it would kind of sound scary too. hydrogen dioxide. Sounds like it might explode or something.
