Hydrogen Peroxide as a Natural Remedy: Benefits and Precautions

I have been using H2O2 for about 1 1/2 yrs (drops in water). I will be flying to South America in 2 mths. I don't want to go without my H2O2. I'll be there for 6 months. Can I take it on the plane (cabin or checked luggage)? It won't be a large amount. Maybe a pint.

Hi Crissy, I'm putting 10 drops of 35% HP on 1.5L of water. And slowly sip on it the whole day before. Since I'm a bit lazy myself and don't want to wake up early. Lol. So, what I'm doing now is I put 10 drops into an 8oz container at night before bed and keep the stuff beside me at night. When I wake up around 5am to relieve myself, that is when I take it and I go back to bed. For the rest of the day, I bring along a concoction of ACV BS BSM fulvic acid with me to sip the whole day. I believe that would make it easier for me to manage. My mom also drinks 10drops of HP every morning, once a day and it seems to have a positive effect on her. Hope that helps.

1. Have fillings(not sure what kind) and a permanent retainer on the top and bottom - Can I still take h2o2 or will it cause reactions with my fillings and retainer?
2. Is h2o2 best taken with baking soda or apple cider vinegar?
3. I am also taking honey and cinnamon a couple times a day. Anyone know if there are complications with this and the h2o2?

Hello Monica Marais! I would suggest you get a food grade Hydrogen Peroxide. It usually comes in at 35% strength. What I did is mix it with 11 parts non-fluoridated and non-chlorinated water. If it is too strong for your dad, you could further cut down the strength of your newly made 3% solution by mixing it with 1 part water and 1 part Peroxide. Hope that helps. Also, try to get fulvic acid if you can, I've been using it for three months and it has helped us out in a lot of ways.

Please let me know how to mix H202 for the nebulizer in south African measurement. We have ml. My husband has emphysema, and I believe this improves the breathing, and which one do I use. I don't know anything about this. Please provide as much info as possible. He is 66 years old

I have used H2O2 enemas. As long as they are administered CORRECTLY, there is nothing to worry about. Be sure to use ONLY 3% H2O2 and no more than 3 tbs per each enema (no less than 1 quart of water). There will be slight fizzing, but it is just expelled when the enema is released; if done correctly, you certainly will not explode, but H2O2 can be very dangerous so for anyone considering H2O2 enemas, please carefully learn how to do them or you could cause damage.

The black stool is toxins being expelled by your body. It means the H2O2 is working. When I first started psyllium husk, my stool got very dark. It gradually - over several months - lightened back up. This was the toxins in my digestive tract. (My cholesterol went from 227 to 186 in three months. ) Recently I started chlorella and my stools are very dark again. I am happy to see this because I know what it means.

These Aura migraines are most likely inflamed sinus pressuring the optic nerve. You will find that a capful of cider vinegar and honey in a little water will stop them almost imiediatly. Take morning and evening for a couple of weeks then just do an evening one.

We are having good results for sinuses/lungs/itchy nose, anything breathing related with this: putting a squirt of plain HP into half a cup of water. Gargle with it and then, before spitting out, breathe thru it with your mouth open a few times.

Have a look at the tea for emphysema in EC. Start taking Cayenne, Take a teaspoon a day. Or failing that, the capsules. It will clean the lungs and blood up.

Ted and those that have responded to my Post before I knew I was getting bad, I ended up going to to the Emergency Room and they kept me for 10 days they ran every test on me possible my oxygen level was very low in the 87-88 range and this is why they kept me in the bed for 10 days on oxygen running every test they could telling me I didnt' match any book they had. They sent me home with my Oxygen finally reaching 92-93 they could not figure out what was going on with my body.

I am totally convinced if it was not for the healthy things I have learned and was doing prior to going to ER and I was just so bad and allowed it to get out of control AND I know I wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for this site. So, they did a scope through the nasal in the left lower lube of the lung and through through the mouth into the lower Right lobe they told me they didn't know what they were going to find they did biopsy and tested everything but they came back with nothing everything was negative, They said there was mucus plugs in the lower lobes of the lungs and that my blood work was perfect, My Heart, Lungs, Spleen, Kidneys, Liver, Thyroid everything functioned as if I was a 25 yr. Athletic adult and I am severely 85 lbs over weight from all the steroids they have had me on the last 3 yrs. and they couldn't understand how my Blood pressure, cholesterol, Sugar, and Inflammation levels in my body were better than most normal.

They sent me home after pumping me full of steroids, And so many antibiotics for 10 days it has taken all I can do just to build my strength back up every day has been a challenge for me. The Docotrs said the only thing they could figure out is that I have Chronic sinusitis disease that leads to allergy induced asthma which cuts down my oxygen level when I allow it to get out of control.

So, I am just starting to get my strength back ever day and I just started take 1/2 cup fresh garlic every day, ACV 3 times a day, and all so I am doing the 3 salt water cleanses every day and I want to do whatever else is necessary to go aggresively after my sinus and get this under control along with working on the extra weight I am carrying around. I want to try the Hydrogen Peroxide food grade I need directions on and whatever else I need to do but I need HELP and I know that today the reason I am alive is because of what I have learned from your site PLEASE help to direct me on what I need to do to regain my life back 100%.

To Ali from Jacksonville, FL

can you please tell us, what are the directions for use and how do we delute properly ? is there a link where I can read more about how to use the FGHP? can we use it internaly and externaly ? would really appreciate your help .

thanks

Not sure about the H2O2 question you asked but I read Ted's post on Borax and the very positive effects it had on fertility.. Might be helpful for you. Good Luck

Hi Carrie, I assume that you are not referring to an acute wound but are referring to a chronic wound or a sutured wound. As you know there is a difference between an acute wound and a chronic wound, whilst this may be the case with chronic wounds due to the fact that 3% H2O2 (whilst good in the initial treatment) does not kill the serious bacterial infection. It is also not advisable on sutured wounds due to its ability to dissolve or weaken some sutures. On acute wounds I have had great success. Have a look at these results.

I saw an article last year about a silver dressing where nano silver particles were in the dressing that would be put on the wound, have you seen this used

Please do not advise hydrogen peroxide for wound care. I am a wound care registered nurse and highly advise against using it for this reason. It is drying to the wound and delays wound healing. Wounds need a balance of moisture to heal.

Hello I was wanting to know if HP still has positive effects on the body if you put seven drops into a gallon of distilled water? Reason Im asking is because the doctors have said my mother is not getting enough oxygen to her heart. She's too lazy to do the drops three times a day and watch out when she eats. She wants everything easy and wants people to take care of her. Shes 55. Would it still make her sick if she has food in her stomach? Can you add more than seven drops? Possibly add ACV to it too for flavor? I appreciate any advice. I love my mom I already know how she is. She likes to be difficult. Thanks!

Just a update I'm also noticing my skin seems pale. I can see the blue veins in my feet and pelvic area. Is this normal? I an now noticing some energy mentally. I also would like to know if any one has ever dosed a child before? Obviously I believe they would be smaller doses. My four year old had a benign tumor removed from the left side of his brain when he was three. There is a small piece left. The chances of it growing back are small. He's on anti-seizure medication, which I would like him to be off of. I was thinking to give the rest of my family the inhalation type of hp. Thanks for your time, hope to hear from someone soon.

If you use mineral water with H2o2 you must be certain it contains no iron, apparently they don't mix too well and abdominal pain can result.

Hi I'm Crissy ,
I'm on the fifteen drops of hp. I have no known illness I'm just tired all the time. I started taking hp to prove to my ill mother that it would not kill her. Lol! She has heart problems, anemia and diabetes. Is there a special way she should take hp? Since she's on meds. I take my doses at 5am, go back to sleep, wake up at 8am take another dose and eat at nine. Three hours later I take my final dose. Is there problem with not eating in-between doses? I also have not gotten this energy everyones talking about. I had also seen on another sight that I needed to start taking vitamin E and that ingredient that's in yogurt (sorry cant remember at the moment). So I've been eating yogurt 2x a day and taking the vitamin. I've also been drinking allot of water, avoiding caffeine, and eating healthier. Any advice? I'm using distilled water. Thanks for your time!

Don't bring that blasphemy here. Quackwatch is the scam.

Hi; can Hydrogen Peroxide help Connective Tissue Disease too?

I have discovered I have horrible systemic Candida, I recently found an excellent homeopathic doctor who suggested IV Ozone therapy. It took literally 15 minutes totally painless, no side effects and after two treatments I believe its about all cured. I have one more treatment and feel like a miracle has been performed. It systemically kills all microorganisims that includes all bacteria and yeast. So it takes care of multiple issues. Anyone trying FGHP should look into it.

I bought a pint sized bottle of 35%. I put that in an empty gallon jug and added 3 pints of distilled water to it. I then poured the rest of the left over distilled water in to which made it a whole gallon. I take 1 teaspoon of that mixture and put it in a gallon of distilled water and drink a glass whenever I am thirsty throughout the day. Do you think this is the right recipe? Also if I wanted to add the baking soda how much would I add? Would I add the baking soda into my jug I am using throughout the day?

Are you sure that you can't mix the hydrogen peroxide with normal water? I do it for my water pik when I clean my teeth.... It says so in a book I read!

Hi Nancy, someone with scientific knowledge replied to an inquiry further up that you should NEVER mix H2O2 food grade with tap water. Use only distilled water to prevent an ugly surprise.

Hi everyone,

Distilled water is just that, distilled water. I buy mine from the garage next door, in the 5 liter format. They use it for batteries. It's distilled water. Don't get too hung up worrying about the water issue. I've used distilled water with no problems whatsoever.

You could even use the water from a dehumidifier if you wanted.

Well, there isn't any studies that I know of which would state either or. However, as an orthopedic physician assistant, I would see no reason why this would be contraindicated. There is nothing physiologically speaking of that should inhibit you from taking H202 with any sort of joint replacement. Good luck.

Rebecca, I would go off dairy and gluten (not just white flours and suger).

The antibiotics and steroids you are on probably have damaged your gut. Research "Leaky Gut". I feel like I am repeating myself (I just feel strongly about the book) but you should look into the book Gut & Phychology Syndrome. Steroids also weaken your immune system badly.

My son has bad asthma issues but when I took dairy and gluten away from his his breathing issues cleared miraculously. For the first time he was wheeze free and even stopped grinding his teeth in his sleep.

Hippocrates quote: All disease begins in the gut.

Hi Rebecca -

My heart goes out to you. I used to have allergy asthma years ago, with the inhaler and the whole fun bronchitis thing to go with it every year. It finally cleared up, and I really have no idea why. Not being able to get a deep breath is scary, and a horrible way to live.

You might want to look up "Linus Pauling and Vitamin C" in a search engine. I have never tried the HP thing, but it seems to me you have an inflamitory process from hell going on, and massive doses of vitamin C are where I would go first. I would be taking it until I had to run to the bathroom, and then back off. At least 1, 000 mg 3-4 times a day. This is just my opinion, and I am not a doctor.... This is just something I thought you might want to try /read about.

Also~ I would look up the anti-inflamitory diet, and the anti-inflamitory properties of omega-3 fatty acids as well.

Lastly ~If I were you I would go to the doctor and get blood work done to see what my C reactive protein readings are. The C-RAP level will tell you how much inflamation you have going on in your body.

Good Luck. :-)

Hey guys I have been on Antibiotic 6 times this year out of 120 days And not just Antibiotics but Steroid packs plus steroid shots, A week later it starts all over again. I was on my last dose of Antibiotics and steroids for 20 days with a nebilizer 3 times a day plus inhalers, I am only 45 and I want to live I feel like I am dying a slow death. The doctor told me last week when I got really bad there is nothing he can do for the Sinusitus and the infection in my lungs and body nothing is touching it. From desperate measures not being able to breath I dilluted the Hydogen Peroxide put it in my nebilizer, have been trying it up my nose, along with Sea Salt for releif to open up a passage way to breathe, I have been bathing in it and I have a bad sore throat and I still have major amounts of thick, thick mugas and infection coming up. Can someone tell me is this normal ?

I am trying the inhalations with the nasal spray bottle I still have a labored breathing issues going on this is my 3rd day I am not dead yet so I figure something is working just not sure if I am missing something or if there is more I can do I so badly need my nasal passages and lungs cleared once and for all. How long will this take me ? I have changed my diet taken out all whites flours, breads, Dairy Ect and sugars. Using ACV 3 times a day. I need HELP any one out there that has tried and what I can do.

Wow! I hope he wasn't taking Over the counter 3% HP.... If you are drinking it.. You must drink FOOD GRADE HPonly... & it must be diluted in cup of glass of water distilled or filtered... LOL ;)

Tonight I started looking for a reason why my local drug stores had no inventory of hydrogen peroxide. Both are major drugist suppliers in a large metro region; between both, there was 1 bottle.

In my search, the following web page came up. You may want to share the article with your readership'

Hi, You may try to reduce the dosage and increase it later.

For the heart pounding and sleep problems try to take some magnesium. A pich of Epsom Salt with a beverage will do. Personally, I take Epsom Salt with drinking water, 1/4 teaspoon in 1.5L bottle of water (52oz), you can also try magnesium citrate. Just google and see by yourself how magnesium is important.

Good Luck, Alain

BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS

I'm on day 3 of the treatment at 6 drops but I have found that in my last 2 days that although I feel so much better pain wise and energy and I have my last dose at about 3pm as it says not to take late but even at this time I am having trouble sleeping and can feel my heart pounding, I am tired but cannot sleep properly.

Not sure whether to just do 2 doses instead of 3 until my sleep gets better. Other than that I feel great so far.

Four months ago I went to visit my friend and out of blue he mention about this hydrogen peroxide first I was sceptic and I start checking it online and when I visit him again he gave me small bottle that he pre-mixed from a food grade that he bought online, I went home and still scare to use it... Before I went to bed I took a small part and gargle and inhaling the bubbles and still scare to ingest but the next morning no bad breath and no body ache... Mmm from then I start spraying it to my mouth just every morning and night. I never felt this good and strenght when I was in the 20's I'm 47 now and I feel wonderful , no more stuffy nose in morning and no body ache...... PS before I was to afraid to make love w/ my wife because every time we do it the next day I'm too sore and cannot even move but now the young man is back

So, I've read that hydrogen peroxide should be taken no sooner than three hours after eating and one hour before eating.

I'm curious how closely people follow this advice and if they've noticed a difference in when they take it in relation to when they eat their food? I'm trying to take HP three times a day, but it is rather difficult. I'm hardly pigging out all day, but I'm not really planning my day around hydrogen peroxide consumption, either.

I bought my Food Grade 35% HP at my local natural health store. Let your fingers do the walking, as the old saying goes! Look in the phone book and call your local health stores. Likely they will carry the HP! janet

IS IT TRUE U CANT USE H202 WITH MERCURY FILLINGS? AS I HAVE 2 ROOT CANALS FILLED WITH MERCURY AND HAVE BEEN NEBULIZING IT AND I'M REALLY FREAKED OUT NOW! HELP! LOVE ANDREA C X X X

I just started taking H2O2 (35% FGHP). I am at 5 drops twice a day. I noticed red eyes yesterday, I am not sure if it is because of H2O2 or something else. In a few days, I am planning to go for 6-10 drops 3 times. I will update results.

I am thinking about starting H2O2 therapy. I do not have any major health issues; however, I do have high cholesterol. I have to take Lipitor 10mg. I tried to change my diet and still my cholesterol goes up if I stop taking Lipitor. I do not want to stay on medication for whole life (at least that is the motivation for me to go through H2O2 therapy)

I purchased 35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide, and also downloaded some instruction on dosage and process for the therapy.

My questions:

1) Do I still continue to take Lipitor while I am on cleansing process of therapy?

2) Do I continue to take other supplements like Slow release Niacin, multi vitamins, Omega-3 etc, while I am on cleansing process of therapy and after?

3) What is the effect on heart? Do I continue with regular workout? And if yes, do I have to wait for any time before or after drinking water with H2O2?

Thanks.

I started taking 3% hydrogen peroxide when I had a cold. I'd taken a bath in hydrogen peroxide and it made me feel lots better. So I researched it here and started taking about an 1/8 to 1/4 cap three times a day.

About a week later, I started getting really achey and sore in my joints, especially around my lower abdomen. After a few days of this, I got curious and started reading comments here. I wondered if perhaps I was getting heavy metal toxicity from the non-food-grade peroxide. I stopped taking the hydrogen peroxide and I took garlic, cilantro, chlorella... put coconut oil on my back...

I felt better very soon after. There's a lot of anecdotal stories here... Maybe there was no heavy metal toxicity... Maybe it was just related to the cold I'd had... Maybe it wasn't related to the hydrogen peroxide... maybe it was coincidence.

Anyway, I'm certainly not taking non-food-grade hp again.

My husband and I have started on the H20. We are up to nine drops in distilled water. Is is ok to premix it in distilled water in smaller bottles? My husbands schedule is so crazy as a trucker I thought could mix it before he goes so he can have it handy during his drive.

Also if you miss a day should you start over from 3 drops? Already we both feel our breathing is better and I have much more energy. Thank you in advance
