Uses For Peroxide
I would like to tell you of the benefits of that plain little
ol' bottle of 3% peroxide you can get for under $1.00 at any
drug store.
1. Take one capful (the little white cap that comes with the
bottle) and hold in your mouth for 10 minutes daily, then spit
it out. (I do it when I bathe or shower.) No more canker sores
and your teeth will be whiter without expensive pastes. Use it
instead of mouthwash.
2. Let your toothbrushes soak in a cup of peroxide to keep
them free of germs.
3. Clean your counters, table tops with peroxide to kill germs
and leave a fresh smell. Simply put a little on your dishrag
when you wipe, or spray it on th e counters.
4. After rinsing off your wooden cutting board, pour peroxide
on it to kill salmonella and other bacteria.
5. I had fungus on my feet for years - until I sprayed a 50/50
mixture of peroxide and water on them (especially the toes)
every night and let dry.
6. Soak any infections or cuts in 3% peroxide for five to ten
minutes several times a day. My husband has seen gangrene that
would not heal with any medicine, but was healed by soaking in
peroxide.
7. Put two capfuls into a douche to prevent yeast infections.
I had chronic yeast infections until I tried this once or twice
a week.
8. Fill a spray bottle with a 50/50 mixture of peroxide and
water and keep it in every bathroom to disinfect without harming
your septic system like bleach o r most other disinfectants will.
9. Tilt your head back and spray into nostrils with your 50/50
mixture whenever you have a cold, plugged sinus. It will bubble
and help to kill the bacteria. Hold for a few minutes then blow
your nose into a tissue.
10. If you have a terrible toothache and cannot get to a
dentist right away, put a capful of 3% peroxide into your mouth
and hold it for ten minutes several times a day. The pain will
lessen greatly.
11. And of course, if you like a natural look to your hair,
spray the 50/50 solution on your wet hair after a shower and
comb it through. You will not have the peroxide burnt blonde
hair like the hair dye packages, but more natural highlights if
your hair is a light brown, faddish, or dirty blonde. It also
lightens gradually so it's not a drastic change.
12. Put half a bottle of peroxide in your bath to help rid boils,
ungus, or other skin infections.
13. You can also add a cup of peroxide instead of bleach to a
load of whites in your laundry to whiten them. If there is blood
on clothing, pour directly on the soiled spot. Let it sit for a
minute, then rub it and rinse with cold water. Repeat if necessary.
I could go on and on. It is a little brown bottle no home
should be without! With prices of most necessities rising, I'm
glad there's away to save tons of money in such a simple,
healthy manner!"
14. I use peroxide to clean my mirrors with, there is no
smearing, which is why I love it so much for this.
Hydrogen Peroxide is described as an effective anti-viral,
Antibacterial, and anti-fungal, and can be used for anthrax
decontamination. This sort of supports the effectiveness of
hydrogen peroxide, don't you think?
Also: your body makes hydrogen peroxide to fight infection
which must be present for our immune system to function
correctly. White blood cells are known as Leukocytes. A sub-
class of Leukocytes called Neutrophils produce hydrogen peroxide
as the first line of defense against toxins, parasites,
bacteria, viruses and yeast.
Simply put, it is the oxygenation of the body. Sickness and
tumors are generally oxygen-hating growths which thrive oxygen-
poor bodies.
15. Gargle with hydrogen peroxide, put drops in the ear and
nose to end colds, flu, chronic sinusitis (including polyps],
and infections.
16. Use as a vegetable wash or soak to kill bacteria and
neutralize chemicals.
17. Disinfect your dishwasher or refrigerator.
18. Use it on trees and plants as a natural fungicide,
insecticide, and as a weed killer.
19. Clean with hydrogen peroxide when your house becomes a
biohazard after its invaded b y toxic mold, such as those with
water damage.
Throughout the world hydrogen peroxide is used instead of
chlorine as a safer and eco-friendly municipal water purifier.
Some use H2O2 in pools and spas.
"Dr. Edward C. Rosenow, author of 450 published medical papers
and associate at the Mayo Clinic for over 60 years . . proved
[more than] 70 years ago (1914) that bacteria could be found
consistently in the lymph nodes that drain joints (J.A.M.A.,
April 11, 1914). He was probably the first scientist to
postulate that H2O2 would help arthritis because of its ability
to supply oxygen to oxygen-hating organisms causing arthritis
(Streptococcus viridans)."
