I gargled with a capful of hydrogen peroxide mixed into 1/4 cup of water and also swished it around my mouth and the next morning my cold was gone.

I used the hydrogen peroxide in the ears at the first sign of a runny nose and sore throat. A half an hour later I felt great and I still feel great today.


Circulation
Posted by David (Springfield, Mo)

Alright, so I read about H2O2 therapy and decided to get some 35% food grade HP for general detox. My wife agreed to try it as well. Not one for small starts, I gave her and myself the full 25 drops diluted in water on an empty stomach. Very unpleasant for me, but much worse for her. She threw up after about 20 minutes and said it was the worst vomiting episode she had ever experienced. She then when back to bed and slept the rest of morning and was wiped out most of the day. Next day, I get her to take 5 drops in water and that proves stable for her. Again 5 drops 2x more that day. Day three, while we are out for breakfast she tells me that her feet are so hot they are tingling and are purple. Now I must explain why this is significant. My wife has suffered from very poor circulation since early teen years. This has presented in ice cold hand and feet at rest, even in summer. Winter nights will find her under many layers of bedding, with sweats, space heater running and sometimes a sock cap. Near the point of comedy, if it were not so miserable for her. I have tried her on cayenne and L-Arginine, which helped some, but was not a cure.

So three days after taking H2O2 for the first time, she found herself with hands and feet that were burning up and purplish red from some new found circulation. This condition proved painful and she started holding her hands under cold water occasionally and only wearing flip-flops as shoes were unbearable. This overheated condtion lasted around three weeks and then subsided. Now another three weeks have passed and her circulation appears to be very normal. She is now wearing light bed clothing and will kick the covers off in the night, which is very different. She says that her circulation problems appear to be over. She is no longer taking the peroxide as it was just too upsetting on her stomach overall.

A sidenote, she has had significant constipation issues her whole life, and the weeks she was taking the HP, she became very regular, sometime having a BM 3x per day. Now that she has stopped the HP, she has started to become irregular again. Time will tell if the HP has cured her circulation issues, especially this winter. Will try to follow up this winter regarding. For me, it has been good. I have no major health issues, just overweight, which has a cure, but it is not HP unfortunately. (smile) I was extremely tired after taking HP the first few day and slept a lot. Now I am taking 25 drops once every other day. It is quite an energy booster and my allergies have been down significantly. Very impressed, and will continue to use it. Ted's comment that lecithin caps will ease the nausea has worked well for me, and I may get some benefit from the lecithin on weight loss as well.

Checking for Stabilizers in H2O2
Posted by Ted (Bangkok) 391 posts

There is a simple way to see if Hydrogen Peroxide contains stabilizers: Pour 1/2 cap of hydrogen peroxide in a glass of water. If the color has yellow (or other off colors), it has a stabilizer. It is best to set it out in the sun where it is easier to see. If the hydrogen peroxide (H202) remains colorless when mixed in a glass of water, it usually does not have a stabilizer.

Almost all H2O2 sold in drug stores will have stabilizers, actually to discourage people to use them internally. So you can use this as a way to compare them. Basically, hydrogen peroxide poured into a clean glass and left out in a sun covered by a dish should not have air bubbles. If it does, there are metal contaminants. If you are asking for trouble, a drop of ammonia solution in H2O2 mixed in water will cause a rapid air bubble generation. It is more unstable if it has stabilizers. You can try the experiment and compare the results.

The test for this is not perfect one, but the key is the color, even when you add just a small amount of water in direct sunlight. Also, a good quality H2O2 doesn't get small bubbles during storage.

By the way, an easy way to test the quality of your drinking water is to add 10% of 3% H2O2 to 90% Water and perform the test by noticing air bubbles. If there are a lot of air bubbles for the next 6 hours, then the water has either too much organic residues OR heavy metals. During the test please keep in places AWAY from children. After the test immediately discard the contents into the sink. Ted"

I went to Wal-Mart to purchase some HP and when I got it home I noticed that my bottle of HP had the skull and cross bones on the front of it. Yikes!! The lable reads "POISON" because this particular brand contains stablizers. The previous brand that I bought did not have stablizers in it and did not have the skull and cross bones symbol on the front. I dont't think I want to try to ingest the poison type of HP. I think readers should be made aware that there is a difference and to be careful when buying HP, to make sure they find one without stablizers."

09/17/2007: Ted from Bangkok replies, "Remedies require food grade H2O2 except in instances of external use. H2O2 can't be labelled poison if it is for external use (as in antiseptics) since other contact poisons go directly through the skin killing you. Stabilizers can't do this. Most labeling no longer uses the skull and bones, at least not on H2O2, since hydrogen peroxide more often causes skin burns only if used in high concentration and are classified as caustic solutions. Even hydrochloric acid might also be considered a poison, but our stomach produce plenty of it. I don't think labels are consistent in classifying it"

Hi readers, I just need let you know that I was looking for a homemade douche solution online and found one that said to use HP. My first thought was, "How could that be when it says right on the bottle to only use externally?" My first thought was quickly replaced by the intrigue of what I was reading. I tried it immediately and before I was done pumping it inside, I began to cramp and then bleed. I have been bleeding, not heavily, for a day now. I feel so stupid, but fooled at the same time. Please help.

Like others have already suggested ... This person may have had a polyp or something within that the douche apparatus ruptured.... It also sounds like she did NOT dilute the H202 down from 3% to 0.5% (1/2 of 1%), which is VERY IMPORTANT, because internal tissues are a LOT MORE SENSITIVE than external!!!

In reply to how to take the HP, l have been taking the 35% food grade HP for 28 days now, started with 3 drops 3 times a day, increasing 1 drop per day thru the 25th day now l am at 25 drops for the last 3 days. I get up anywhere early in the morning to use the bathroom, from 2 a.m. to 6 a.m don't know if you have that problem, but, l already have my 3 bottles prepared for the next day, so, l take my first one anywhere between the hrs l showed. l am semi-retired and don't have to get up early any more unless l want too. l am taking HP for diabetes ll trying to get my blood levels down. the book l have is the one minute c--e, which only takes a minute to take the product, is why it is named that way and a cent and a half per bottle of 6 to 8 oz of distilled water, l only use Zero water myself. Not sure why you are taking the HP but when l first started l was using 6 oz of zero water, but when l got to the 18 drops l started using milk because the taste is not pleasant milk seems to help.

H2O2 Nasal Spray

★★★★★

If you are looking for a quick and easy way to inhale Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide. I use the 3% in a nasal spray bottle, like the Inhalation Method, but up my nose instead. I didn't have any problems of burning, but in case you do go low and slow. This was quicker and easier for me than nebulizing or using the Neti pot. And I recommend adding MSM to your drinking water too. Read up MSM here on Earth Clinic, and Dr. Josh Axe has a nice article on it too.

How Peroxide Works
Posted by Cindy (Illinois, USA) on 10/27/2020 558 posts

That might explain the myriad of the variety of complications that stem from chronic dehydration and resolve themselves with hydration. I doubt the body can make H2O2 at the levels it needs without enough H2O from which to synthesize it which would create problems unique to the individual based on its unique exposures to toxins, bacteria and viruses and all of the individual's other unique "injuries".

I've often wondered why hydrating effects so many and such widely diverse issues so quickly as all sickness appears to stem from dehydration - which now makes perfect sense, with the H2O2 connection.

It would also explain what has always appeared to me as the extremely diverse activities of what is obviously mis-named "the immune system" as it has always seemed to function in a far wider capacity - primarily with regard to bone and tissue "repair".

Awesome! Thanks for the scoop!

This happened to me as well. I have a lot of genealogical issues as well. It is a detox reaction. I talked to my Naturopath about it and she said yes, this does happen as a result of peroxide or even medical ozone use. I backed off for a bit and started again. My symptoms were horrible. Hope this helps.


H2O2 Side Effects
Posted by Timh (Ky) on 05/26/2015 2041 posts

C: Yes, there are some conditions that can be aggravated by H2O2 therapy.

First up on beginning H2O2 is making sure the body is properly alkalized. Acidic conditions cause hypoxia and visa-versa, so always be sure to properly alkalize.

Here a list come-to-mind of conditions that have the potential for bad reaction (hydroxyl radicals etc): Heavy Metals are not removed or detoxed by Hydrogen Peroxide and can produce toxic free radicals if coming into contact, so always do proper H.M. cleanses prior to Oxygen therapy.

Another condition would be a fairly common one of Aldehyde poisoning as a byproduct of candida or fungal infections. I don't have a degree in biochemistry but this combination looks not good. Another but somewhat rare condition is Mallonic Acid poisoning as a byproduct of tapeworm disease, could be reactive to H2O2.

It seems plausible that H2O2 therapy could be used in small amounts long-term, otherwise it would be indicated in increasing amounts (up to 25 drops 3% 2x per day) in acute cases like infections or cancer.

There are also other products that provide additional oxygen delivery like MMS and CellFood. Ozone is superior to H2O2 in many respects but has several shortcomings like instability and difficult administration. Also, adding alkaline rich Sodium Chlorite drops to a beverage naturally increases oxygen within the body.


Immune Support, Multiple Symptoms

My lymph nodes had been swollen, even causing blurred vision, runny nose, rashes. 22 years into it with misdiagnosis, biopsies, meds with no results I finally was diagnosed with extremely rare Hyper-IgG4 disease lymphadenopathy. Cancer cells clone. My cells don't clone; all individuals, I just make too many. It's new disease so doctors don't know to test for it. Google it. Ask your doctor to test for it. They think more people have it, just doctors don't know about it.

Ear and Sinus Issues
Posted by Karrie (Wi) on 11/01/2015

All was resolved with my ear, and I'm assuming the clogging was from the terrible cold I had. I did the tapping around my ear and it seemed to help get the draining going. I also did gentle heat from a heating pad. Dang, that was a really bad situation, I had no voice for weeks and also gargled diluted hydrogen peroxide which helped for that (3% strength generic from the grocery store), as did oil pulling. I also used the hydrogen peroxide in the humidifier in my bedroom....seemed to help with symptoms. I think that was the worst illness I've had since the '90s. I can not experience one like that for at least a decade or so! Be well everyone :)

Bladder
Posted by Ray (Colorado, US) on 08/03/2014
★★★★☆

Having lived with an extremely stretched bladder for a number of years I was pleased to find that a very mild solution of hydrogen peroxide caused it to shrink to its original size (2 to 4 drops 30% food grade H2O2 in 16 ounce of water) taken twice a day, once in the morning and again just before bedtime. The results are not permanent requiring continued usage.

Mymindisnotme: Yes, your body has had too much H2O2. Reduce that dose every day until your down to 2 drops which would be sufficient for purification purposes.

Allergies are very often a case of leaky gut or dirty colon. Toxins get into the bloodstream thru the gut/colon and the immune system goes burzerk. This condition can be dangerous if one is taking any pharmaceutical drugs as they to enter the bloodstream un-metabolized. I have had this happen several times and my bad symptom is kidney pain and infection. Speaking of Kidney, you need to take Kidney/Urinary Track cleaning herbs which are recommended here on E.C.

Also search the "Ailments" section at the top of page for healing remedies for your digestive system.

You may also need to begin an anti-inflammatory diet plus supplements as inflammation triggers allergies. Bad food sensitivities can also trigger allergies. Note any foods that may be triggering reactions.

Let us know how you are doing.

Not so sure about what I've read....some suggestions appear to be 35% by the drop; some suggestions appear to be that the 35% should be reduced, then the dilution is used by the drop. Once I get to the other side of this mess I'm in, described above, I may try a drop of the diluted in my water but will not be using the full 35% in my water. phew, what a lesson I've learned!

Dear Kt,

I think that is a logical question.

I have used DMSO from the farm store on myself. Robert Henry had a good point that it if it is good enough for million dollar horses (or something akin to that) it is good enough for people.

I knew a veterinarian many years ago with chronic Lyme disease. She ended up treating herself successfully with vet grade anti-biotics. She was comfortable with the quality.

I know I have seen on this site certain things to buy from an aquarium shop for medicinal use.

I am sure there are plenty of things I would not use from a pet or farm store on myself, but there are some things I have been comfortable with, particularly on the advice of people whose opinions I trust.

Best Water To Use

Jacob: Molecules catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. Distilled water is the only water that does not contain any molecules. Spring water is best for drinking. Reverse osmosis and filtered waters from the treatment plants have had their electromagnetic frequencies changed and give off bad vibes like emf waves from electronic gadgets.


Hydrogen Peroxide and Stabilizers
Posted by Baldev (Maharashtra, India) on 08/24/2013 180 posts

My question is for Ted/Bill, I have asked this question earlier also but so far no answer has been given to me, and it is very important for people living in India. I have even gone to people who make H2O2 and they have told me that demand for food grade H2O2 in India is so little that it is not viable for them to make it and it is very unstable so if they make it and is not sold, it is total loss to them. I therefore had requested Ted/Bill to give their advice whether one can take the normal (non food grade) H2O2, as we are taking Borax which is for lab use only. Why I am emphasising this question is that we in this part of the world are being deprived of the benifits of H2O2. How harmful are the stabalisers which they put to make H2O2 stable for lab/external use only? Ted/Bill please take some time to answer my question so that once for all this subject can be taken out of my mind one way or the other.

Thanks Baldev

H2O2 Side Effects
Posted by Mike (New York, Ny) on 11/05/2012

I purchased FGHP and immediately began using it with the incorrect dosage. Like an idiot, I mistook a drop to mean one whole dropper. You can see where this is going. I did three whole droppers the first day and the physiological effects were perceptible that evening. My throat felt scratchy beneath the Adam's apple and I suffered from nausea. I repeated the incorrect dosage for a few more days until it was pointed out to me that a whole dropper is not a drop. A Eureka moment ensued. I ramped down to 3 drops, not droppers, and although the candida in my stomach was decimated (which was partly my initial intent taking FGHP) I experienced a general discomfort and have since ceased taking the product, figuring I would give the body some time to recover.

Now, almost a month later, my body quivers and anxiety has stricken my mind. There are times when my brain lapses momentarily. I suspect this is a result of the overdose and could use some clarification or confirmation and certainly some guidance. It was my mistake and no one's fault but my own (I was never good with details). Granted, there were extenuating circumstances which I can attribute to my recent anxiety (Hurricane Sandy's aftermath), however, I have not read anywhere what the consequences of taking too much FGHP are. I appreciate your help.

H2O2 Side Effects
Posted by Timh (Louisville, Ky, Usa) on 11/06/2012 2041 posts

Mike: Oxygen can be toxic as it could produce dangerous free radicals, and this can happen only in a body deficient in reduction enzymes like Superoxide Dismutase, Catalse. The dose you took is the maximum advised oral dose that is supposed to be reached gradually (as you noted as a mistake). H2O2 is also administered I.V. by some holistic doctors and therapist, so there is a good safety record here. This episode doesn't seem disastrous but there does seem to be a need for response. Eat Wheat Sprouts or take as supplement for a few days, and also do some relaxation therapy and you should be just fine.

Hi, Ted and thank you for the all the informative help. I have been using 35% HP in the way of ingestion. Started 3 drops per 8 oz of distilled water three times a day. The dosage adds 1 drop a day for 23 days. So far I am up to 10 drops 3 times a day. The taste has not bothered me yet.

Want to know if it is safe to keep up with this as long as I can handle the taste?

I am a smoker and suffering from Arthritis in my wrists and knees. I also have gum disease & been a candidate for gum surgery and have a severe case of varicose vein too. I heard that use of HP and the regimen I mentioned above would take care of these problems. I would like to know if the program I am following would help me with these conditions or if there is a better way of different dosage that would work better with these conditions. Also been reading on the posts about usage of regular filtered water would be a better alternative to distilled water and adding of baking soda or salt?

I cleaned my teeth and gums with the 3% solution and that caused flu like symptoms for the past 3 days with a bad cough of mucus.

I would like to know how to get rid of all the residue in my lungs due to years of smoking. Also been using 16 oz of 35% in bath tub full of water, would this help with arthritis?

Also if using HP would help psoriasis? And if so what would be the dosage? Thank you so much for all the help.

Lou, I am so pleased everything has worked out well for you. I have often come on Earth Clinic, and twice, I felt it saved my life with what I thought at the time was the most ridiculous of "therapies" but twice I felt Earth Clinic saved my life! I was desperate and was trying things I had read, and then I remembered Earth Clinic came online at 6am one Friday morning, and I couldn't believe what I tried actually worked. My son, Paul was sick with worry because he thought I was having a heart attack? It was actually an acute attack of possibly Acid Reflux/Hernia? Whatever it was, I rushed to my fridge and swigged a load of pickle juice! It worked! It took the chronic burning out of my chest, admittedly I was very ill for a couple of days, and then I went completely normal, so I am very grateful that people come from all over the world trying to help each other, and I have found no site better than Earth Clinic.

Thanks for all the info. I have started the therapy ingesting h2o2. I am on day 6 and no real side effects. I did get a slight headache when I started but that has gone and even my wife says I just look better. I am using the 35 percent and will keep a log of the progress. I am taking this to slow the frequentcy of cold sores and a preventative to all other virus/ cancers. The only thing I had issues with was burping even on an empty stomach. I am conscious of that and now it has been better. I definitely have a ton of energy. I used to drink two monsters a day just to get through work. I feel cleansed and have not had caffeine for a month now ( gave it up for lent and continued on).


Lung Issues
Posted by Mama to Many (Tennessee) on 01/28/2015

Dear Nedra,

When I use hydrogen peroxide in the nubulizer, this is what I do:

5 drops of 3% hydrogen peroxide (from the grocery store. I look for one that only has "Purified water" as the inactive ingredient.)

30 drops of distilled water

Put the above in the medicine cup of the nebulizer.

This I do a few times a day for coughing. But I would do it every couple of hours during an acute sickness. It is especially helpful if done right before bed and upon waking.

Sometimes when we do this, we don't even nebulize the whole amount. It can cause some coughing. If you find this too strong, dilute with even more distilled water. Maybe 2 drops 3% peroxide with 30 drops of water.

Hi Sandy - Thank you for that excellent link on H2O2. This sounds extremely promising - I wish your son continued success in his treatment! I'm so pleased that you have a doctor who is open-minded enough to accept alternative treatments - very rare indeed.

I have read that doing a gentle "health bounce" on a mini-trampoline (rebounder) assists in getting the lymph moving as it transports and eliminates toxins. From NaturalNews Web site: According to Linda Brooks (www.wholelife.com), "The practice of rebounding against cancer is done using the 'health bounce, ' where the feet are kept on the mat and a gentle bouncing motion is maintained for up to two minutes. A stabilizer bar is available for attachment to the rebounder to add security, safety, and balance when needed by those who are weak or unsteady. If endurance is low, start with less time than two minutes and work up to the optimal two minutes over a period of a few weeks. " If you Google cancer and rebounding, there should be more details. Take care, Bess

Hi Sue, you use 3% hydrogen peroxide mixed 1 part hydrogen peroxide and 1 part water. I don't know how often you should use it but I have used it every day for a few days at a time when I have had a sore throat without any side effects. Cheers Lily.

H2O2 Side Effects
Posted by Dud (From The Woods Of, Wv, Usa) on 09/19/2011

Both of your symptoms indicate that the "lens" of your inner eyeballs could be getting clouded over by cataract-like distortions.... possibly due to the h2o2 free radical damage [?].

There is a protein-glycogen substace called acetyl-L-cysteine [spelling?] that is being used as eye drops to reverse cataracts. Improves about 75% of people who try it.

search it on a scroogle search.

Remedies Especially for Cataracts

*The use of carrots is considered beneficial in the treatment of cataract. Take plenty of raw carrots daily or else drink two glasses of fresh carrot juice, one each in the morning and evening.

*Eat two or three cloves of raw garlic daily to clean the crystalline lens of the eye. The cloves should be chewed slowly.

*Extract the juice of pumpkin flowers and apply externally on the eyelids twice daily to prevent further clouding of the crystalline lens.

*Mix an equal quantity of aniseed and coriander powder together with one teaspoon of brown sugar, and take the mixture in doses of 12 grams in the morning and evening.

*Place a few drops of raw organic honey in the eyes twice or more each day. This is an ancient Egyptian remedy which is reported to have benefitted many people with cataracts.

*Finely grind seven kernels of raw almonds together with half a gram of black pepper and place in a half cup of water. Sweeten with raw honey and drink the mixture to help the eyes regain vigor and clarity.

*Twice daily, close your eyes and bathe them with hot (but not scalding) water containing Epsom salts. In addition, take an Epsom salts bath at least twice a week. Remain in the bath from twenty-five to thirty-five minutes till you perspire freely. After the bath, cool off gradually.

When it comes to eye remedies, the best results may well come from combining one or more of the suggested remedies.

ALPHA-LIPOIC ACID

Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) is a small organic molecule with a disultide bond. It is a superb antioxidant that is soluble in both water and fat. ALA is an important coenzyme for the production of acetyl coenzyme A. Dihydorlipoic acid (DHLA), it's reduced form, is an electron donor that recycles other fundamental antioxidants (vitamin C, vitamin E, and glutathione). ALA and DHJLA are superb free radical scavenger themselves because they neutralize peroxyle radicals [36], hydroxyl radicals [39] and singlet oxygen [38].

ALA is also a metal chelator that removes mercury from tissues [17], prevents calcium oxalate crystals (stones) from forming in the kidneys [21, chelates copper [28], and removes arsenic [18].

Lately, there has been a great explosion in ALA research. The lipoic acid/dihydrolipoic acid redox couple inhibits viral replication by stabilizing the NFK beta transcription factor [4], blocks the development of cataracts [24], protects the kidneys form aminoglycoside damage [35], insulates the pancreatic islet cells form inflammatory assault [7], inhibits thymocyte apoptosis [8], and stimulates the production of helper T cells [15]. In addition, the toxic side effects of cancer chemotherapy can be attenuated with the use of ALA [5] and it protects bone marrow from free radical damage secondary to ionizing radiation. [33].

Hydrogen Peroxcide

I had been out in the sun for about 2 hours and decided to come in before I got burnt. About 2 hours later I was lopster red, unable to lie down or sit - the pain was unbearable. I was untouchable & red with a very bad case case of sunburn. A friend said to use h-p.

At that time I was game to try anything no matter how silly it sounded. But in 20 minutes I went from bering untouchable to being able to be slapped on the back without any pain. Plus an added benefit For the first time in my life, I kept the tan and did not peel. The fresher the h-p, the better.

The worst part was it felt ice cold when I applied it.

My wife has RA she tryed H2O2, stayed on it up to 25 drops 35 FGH2O2, and the pain got so bad she had to stop taking it. Now her RA has tripled in pain. Should we try IV H2O2?

Thank You,

Sometimes our bodies go through a 'healing crisis' where our symptoms get worse before they get better. It's possible that this is what your wife was experiencing. When a healing crisis occurs, it could last anywhere from several hours to several days- even as long as a week. I'd really encourage your wife to stick it out and see if there's improvement after 7-10 days. Drinking lots of water during this time could be helpful.

You may want to try inhalation: fill a clean spray bottle with 3 % solution of food-grade hydogen peroxide (be sure always to dilute with distilled water), pump into the mouth 5 to 10 times while inhaling the mist into the lungs. Under normal circumstances use 2 x in the morning and 2 x at night. But if one is sick you can augment the number of times per day ie: every 2 / 4 or 6 hours. The amount of hydrogen peroxide "ingested" will not be as high as it would be if taken orally but it should help. Good luck!

Posted by Dani (Fresno, Ca) on 04/20/2010

Debbie, you say you are taking 1 oz of 3%? I hope it is diluted food grade. Don't know if you researched back posts about drug store brands have bad stuff and 3% is way too much for ingestion also. I started with 3 drops of 35% Food Grade H2O2 in 6oz water and worked up to 12 drops when it started upsetting my stomach, then backed off a bit and only worked up to 15 drops.

Also for any cancers, especially breast, make sure your vit D3 levels are adequate. Mine are only at 50 ng/ml, but you need around 80 ng/ml for cancer treatment. I also have breast thermography to keep track of changes.

Good luck.

I do not have cancer that I know of, but I have started the 35% FGHP, just two drops in a glass of water once a day. I'm hearing of the people that are having a hard time with 10-15 drops, I would say just start with one or two. It's powerful stuff.


Sore Throats

I have had a sore throat for a week now. I put the 3% Hydrogen Peroxide (no mix)onto some Qtips and then rubbed it onto my tonsils. It completely got rid of the white pus sacs on my tonsils and was foaming. The Qtips actually had pus all over them..Kinda gross but it worked!! I IMMEDIATELY felt better and am able to swallow now without pain..What a miracle that stuff is! I would rate the pain before using the peroxide, a 10, after using it a 1. Slight discomfort but not really noticeable. I also did it until I saw no more pus on my tonsil or on the qtips. Use a clean qtip each time. Also, this can cause you to gag..so be careful with that. Thanks so much for this website!

I don't beleive that there is enough data to support H2O2 intake while breastfeeding. Doing so seems excessively risky to me. Does it not to you? Common sense and risk assessment must rule the day in the absence of data, in my opinion.


Artificial Joints
Posted by Orrie (St. Augustine, Florida, Usa) on 08/21/2010

Hello Anyone, I, too, have an artificial joint (hip, May 2010) and have wondered the same thing. EC is the best I've found for reliable information! I spend hours every day researching health related questions (no TV :). The only negative thing found concerning H2O2 therapy is if you have had an organ transplant. The results of increased immunologic responses from the body could cause rejection of the organ. Thus far nothing found concerning artificial joints. The closest positive so far is that H2O2 will aid in strengthening bones. The most important thing you can do is to maintain an alkaline diet: ditch the fast foods and prepackaged stuff. Learn to cook/prepare a real, live food diet "a la grandmother. " There are a host of sites to research that will help, just be careful, read and read and learn the truth! I'll be trying the therapy whilst carefully monitoring.

Cancer

The hydrogen peroxide(HP) therapy is a very useful therapy to kill viruses, bacteria, cancer and fungus for sure. But HP's primary method for this is by providing and delivering a more oxygenated environment for the cells in your body, it does not increase the alkaline state of your body.

To use effective methods of alkalizing your body, see this link, concerning Ted's alkalizing remedies, for full descriptions of the remedies:

https://www.earthclinic.com/remedies/alkalizing_formulas.html

I've successfully used all of Ted's alkalizing remedies for my intestinal candida. These remedies were my prime method I used to attack and get rid of my intestinal candida. I'm completely free of candida now and its made quite a difference in my life, I have so much more energy these days. And I still regularly take these remedies even now.

You can also safely use HP therapy together with these alkalizing remedies, since they don't interfere but actually will work to enhance each other.

By taking bicarbonates internally, this will not only alkalize your body, but bicarbonates are necessary in cell respiration, for the exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen between your cells and the blood. And since HP increases the delivery of oxygen to your cells, this exchange is bound to become more efficient, thus increasing your energy even more.


Antibiotics and H2O2
Posted by Tricia (Ireland) on 08/11/2009

I had to go to Doc today. Managed to lance myself with a rusty pipe that I backed my leg into. Minor surgery removed most of it but now I need to take a antibio ( a strong one at that). My question is - I had just started hydrogen peroxide therapy. I'm still only at 8 drops per glass X 3 per day and it is working for tonsil mucous reduction. Too early to say it is a cure. Anyway what effect, if any, will the antibiotics and peroxide have on each other and can I continue with peroxide therapy? Antibiotics are clarithromycin 500 X 2 per day. Thanks for all the informmation that you and the readers provide.

Sorry to all. I only just saw ec comment on brand name. Thanks Eduardo. Threre is no brand name on the bottles, it just says "Pharmacy brand" at he top but it is made by a company called Ricesteele, Tallaght, Dublin 24, Ireland. They make both the HP and borax that I use. I think they have a parent company elsewhere (USA probably). When It comes to tonsil mucous it didn't work. There was a reduction but by no means a cure. I am trying oil of oregano at the moment and again I can get to a watery reduction but not a cure. My next attempt is to sniff HP into the sinus and spray the throat/tonsils. Hope this helps.

Hi Tricia

Can you tell me the name and address of the chemist where you buy your 35% HP foodgrade and what exactly you ask for. Also do you know where I can buy distilled water. I have contacted numerous pharmacies in Ireland and cannot locate either product.


Antibiotics and H2O2
Posted by Tricia (Ireland) on 01/25/2010 84 posts

Hello Ger, I never managed to locate 35% HP. All Chemists sell HP but only at the 3% or 6%- the latter being the more common, so usually I get them to order it at 3% for me. It is a commonly used antiseptic for hearing aids and cleaning so should be readily available at all chemists. Check around this website for Ted's reccommendation on checking for stabilisers in HP before ingestion.

Distlled water is another matter. Hard to believe but this seems to have gone off the market here. I tried a number of places and couldn't get it. I settled for sterilised water which I was able to buy in the chemists for about 3 Euro. That was the closest I could get.

Hi Richard, At this stage it is almost a case of "what haven't I done?". I stopped the oral ingestion of HP at that time because I had no choice but to take the antibiotics at the time and since no one answered the question I had posed, I decided not to take any chances. I started to inhale the HP instead and felt - though not a cure - that this helped clear the mucous that was slipping from the tonsils into the lungs and causing me to cough. When I restarted ingestion there was no further great improvement so I switched to Teds remedy for a low lying infection which included Zinc, vit c, lysine and HP in water. No success so I tried oil of oregano with no success either.
I should note that with most of these remedies I will initially feel that it is working then within 24/48 hrs return to normal.
Previous to these things I have tried tumeric, cayenne pepper, oil pulling, iodine painting and magnesium. I continue to ingest acv,bread soda and borax which I had taken for other things and none of the above have given me any relief from the constant mucous forming at the back of my throat.

Like you, this started with a bad cold. Although I have had a specialist put in a camera through the sinus and tonsils and says there is nothing amiss, I am beginning to feel as though there is some sort of structural damage. I have this about 3/4 years now.

I don't think any of the above will affect the effect of HP except for acv which when the two are combined change the type of acid. So these two require a time window.

If you find anything that helps on this I would be grateful if you would let me know.

You have to gargle with the 3% hydrogen perixode at least 3 or more times a day and that will take care of a sore throat and muccus. It worked for me.

Hi Tricia, have you tried Colloidal silver? fantastic stuff it is a natural antibiotic, one drop in each nostral a couple times a day and be sure to do it before bed, it has a very slite taste to it, almost like water. you can also take a few drops in the back of your throat.the strength should be at least 40ppm's

Take care.


Antibiotics and H2O2
Posted by D Smith (Los Angeles, Ca) on 04/19/2012

Hi Tricia, If all those didn't work, it could be the acv. ACV and other acids can cause irritation of the throat passages when taken at too high of a dose (Especially when using other products that clear mucous since the mucous helps protect these membranes from this damage.)

For the moment, I would suggest to possibly stop taking ACV and any other acidic products (lemon/grapefruit may be ok at low concentrations if necessary) and replace it with a spoonful of natural raw honey daily when you wakeup to help sooth and repair the throat. You may also want to cut down on your dosage of some of the products that you are taking to reduce mucous unless you are still having cold or flu type symptoms. Because of the possible damage, a little mucous is more helpful than hurtful at this point.

That said, ACV is not bad in itself as this can happen even from drinking a high concentration of lemon juice. Sometimes we just need to take baby steps when we start something new and in your case it may have been the combination of acidic products with a significant reduction in mucous.
