Hydrogen Peroxide Inhalation Therapy And Children

Well, I have been reading about Hydrogen Peroxide Inhalation therapy, at Earth Clinic, of course. Somehow it was very intimidating to me. But I kept reading because I really wanted to try it on my daughter. She is 9 and has asthma. She had a lot of trouble 18 months ago and we did a lot of natural things and she was better. But it just recently flared up again and nothing was helping her for long. I finally tried the inhalation therapy. I thought I would share what I did for other parents who wanted to try it.

I took a glass colloidal silver bottle with a spray top and emptied it into another container and cleaned it out. (I wanted to be sure to use a food grade container. ) I filled it with 3% hydrogen peroxide from the pharmacy. (I have food grade around but am terrified that I will mix it wrong and have a disaster. ) First, I tried it on me. I just sprayed it into the back of my mouth and inhaled. Then I tried this on my daughter. She is 9 and petite. I had her exhale, then spray towards the back of her throat and inhale. At first we did one spray twice a day. Now she does 2 sprays, inhales, then 2 sprays. When she starts wheezing, if she does this, the wheezing stops.

I do have her taking a number of herbs to minimize her allergies and that helps. (She takes nettles and quercetin. I am also giving her Evening Primrose Oil and Dandelion Root daily. ) At night we use an essential oil diffuser and diffuse good oils for her lungs. She has hardly wheezed at all since we started that. But she does wheeze if she plays hard, but she knows to come in and spray peroxide and take a dose of nettles.

Hope this will help another parent. I am so grateful for all the stories on earth clinic!

Thanks!

Several years ago, my grand daughter, who is going on 9 yrs, developed breathing problems. My daughter took her to the doctor, where they prescribed ambuterol, to be delivered by a nebulizer, which was furnished as well. It was about that time that I discovered Earth Clinic, and was diligently searching for an alternative solution... Came across the hydrogen peroxide section, and of course, was fascinated and motivated to change our course of action. Doing so with food grade hydrogen peroxide, I noticed significant relief to her breathing... Still use that nebulizer to this day for all kinds of stuff, I.E. Home made colloidal silver, baking soda, magnesium oil, etc... Anyway I wanted to add something that I came across almost at the same time that I added to the equation about a month later. Namely, Vitamin D3. I found a chewable tablet form in 5,000 I.U. by now products, and I would (and still do to this day) crush the tablet up and give to her on the spoon accompanied with some raw milk. Bottom line: no more asthma symptoms. Now, every once in a blue moon, if she gets stuffed up nasally, I simply spray 3% food grade up her nostrils, one spray, using one of those nose sprayer formula bottles procured from the dollartree store for, you guessed it, a dollar. Hope this compliments the otherwise rich knowledge procured from this blessed site!

David,

Thanks so much for sharing! I do give my daughter Vitamin D also. Forgot about that. I do that to help prevent colds; didn't realize it was good for asthma.

Thanks for sharing a source for nasal sprayers--that is helpful. Are you saying you use the nebulizer to get baking soda, magnesium and colloidal silver to the lungs? Is that for asthma too, or something else? Also, how much of those do you use? I have thought about getting a regular nebulizer for such things.

Really appreciate your input and experience. Thanks!

Hi just Read your experience and if your daughter still have strong allergies try Honey suckle plant scientific name Justicia spicigera in spanish muitle

My daughter had asthma and exema you need 8MG of the fresh plant put it to slow boil in 1/2 a litter of water for 20 min the tea is extremely red it barely taste herbal u can ad honey or sugar. But she needs to drink it daily as many times she can my daughter is difficult to take new things but after one week her wezing stopped, and her skin is really clear she needed singular pills daily and loratadine and some times outside an inhaler now she takes loratadine before petting an animal but she does not Start wheezing as before just by being near now she dont take meds daily.

My husband and I started with the tea just as healthy caution you can read about the plant and benefits of it it's great youll be amazed hope you're daughter gets of the meds too god bless

HI YOU GOOD PEOPLE DOIN, , , , , , , , , stole this from another poster, so I take no credit, but just want to say that it is working for us and our daughter.

We bought these humidifiers at Christmas, and we add a half cup of H2O2 to a half gallon of faucet water and turn it on when we go to bed. It keeps our nasal passages open so we don't breathe through our mouth. It is working for our Atlanta daughter also.

My wife is not white headed, she is silver headed. I had a few grey hair but now I'm becoming a blonde as the original poster said was happening to him.

In the early 50's all us teeny bopper Rednecks bleached our pompadour to get the wemmins attention at the local swimming pool. Now at my age I could not follow up. Guess I best start sleeping in a shower cap of some sort.

Ya'll behave for a change.

RH, are you referring to cool mist humidifiers that can be purchased pretty much anywhere? (I already have one, which is why I'm asking.) As for the H2O2, which type, the standard drug store variety H2O2 or food grade? Thanks in advance!

HI U COURTNEY, , , , , , , , , , I spent 40 years in the paper industry breathing chlorine and chlorine dioxide every day so a little off grade H2O2 is not a deal with me. I use food grade H2O2 that I am going to inhale with our nebulizer. I use sto bought stuff in our humidifier.

I appreciate your question and you got my answer.

Began Bil Munro's inhalation method around noon yesterday. Found a nasal inhaler at a local store, easily acquired for about five bucks. Followed Mr. Monro's instructions and after only two inhalations of 3% solution (in purified water)slept better than I have in years! Today, I have had three inhalations of 7 pumps each and feel great with no side effects as yet. I'm 65 years old and in good health, some old injury pain has seemed to ease a bit. I will continue treatments and provide updates as my wife and I go along.

THANK YOU MR. MUNRO!

I recently was sick for about 7 weeks. This came as quite a surprise because I'm only 38 and have been living my most healthy life for the past 18 months. Whatever happened to my body it took ahold of me like nothing I've ever had before. Particularly my lungs, and throat. But especially my lungs. I was taking NAC, Vit C, Selenium, B's, Zinc, and about 8 other things by the LITERAL HANDFULS! I threw everything AND the kitchen sink at this problem. All my essential oil tricks, steam inhalations, everything...I've been a reader of this site since I was 17-18 years old. I'm 38 now! Wow time flies.

I've known about the Hydrogen Peroxide inhalation method for many years but I never tried it....until now. I was always afraid. I was always able to fix my problem some other way even with antibiotics (of which I took many for several weeks). But this time I couldn't fix myself with my old tricks and I became desperate.

I began the Hydrogen peroxide inhalation about 7 days ago. I'm currently about 90% better. I started with 0.1% diluted solution on day 1. (0.9% standard saline mixed with 3% hydrogen peroxide) Note that is 29 parts 0.9% saline mixed with 1 part 3% hydrogen peroxide. 29:1 ratio.

0.1% helped immediately. But I quickly learned my improvements were only short lived. 1-3 hours. I slowly and cautiously began to increase the dilution %. Next I tried 0.2%, then 0.3%, then 0.4%, all the way up to about 0.5%

I believe 6ml of water or saline mixed with 1ml of 3% hydrogen peroxide is the sweet spot. This creates a mixture resulting in dilution of 0.429%

I used store bought standard peroxide purchased at any drug store or pharmacy. I made my purchases in Philippines and Thailand. I could not find "food grade" but I believe many standard brands do not contain any additives or stabilizers. The reason the bottles are brown or opaque and the reason they say 'do not shake' is because they become unstable otherwise. I think many brands are actually "food grade" but they cannot label them as such.

My philosophy when it comes to the hydrogen peroxide method is to not concern yourself with which brand but just start the protocol as soon as possible if you are having difficulty breathing. It works! And it's amazing. It works within minutes.

I primarily used a nebulizer to inhale the solution. At first I used a cheap tiny baby nebulizer. Then I purchased a bigger more powerful one. Make sure to use a compressor type/piston type nebulizer. Not the ultrasonic kind, and not the handheld portable kind. I noticed the more powerful ones help push the mist down into your lungs better. I also like Bill's method of using the mister nasal spray bottle. The reason I like that method is because it's very convenient and you can keep it in your pocket and do it anywhere. Frequency of this protocol is paramount. You must do it at regular intervals. I've found 4-5 times a day is good.

Thanks earthclinic! And thank you to everyone who has made contributions over the years. This protocol is a miracle!

Mycoplasma Pneumnia is being called “White Lung Pneumnia” by the media. It is an attempt to cover-up a adverse reaction side effect from taking the Sars-2 Covid19 vaccine. Pfizer has known that the vaccine causes mycoplasma pneumonia and it is listed by Pfizer Confidential Report that was never meant to be seen by the public.

Proof of this can be found in;

5.3.6 CUMULATIVE ANALYSIS OF POST-AUTHORIZATION ADVERSE EVENT REPORTS OF PF-07302048 (BNT162B2) RECEIVED THROUGH 28-FEB-2021

It was Restricted: Confidential Information (but was forced to be made public under a federal court order)

Look on page 36

Listed as “Pneumonia mycoplasmal”

In other words…. It's a cover-up so the public never makes the connection between the covid vaccine shot and its adverse effects….

Hi Rob, I learned about that just a couple days ago! Can you share more about mycoplasma pneumonia? I've never had the covid shot but did have covid in December 2020, which was a very mild case of sinus congestion and chest tightness. A couple days later I had a required covid test via throat swab for an elective surgery. I was told the next day that I was positive for covid and surgery was canceled. I've had mild lung issues ever since. I was recently diagnosed with three viruses: mycoplasma pneumonia, cytomegalovirus and Epstein-Barr virus. Very curious to me since I'm very healthy, eat very well and exercise. Have you ever heard of the “vaccine” being given to people via throat swab rather than injection?

@ Brenda

To explain mycoplasma pneumonia would take a book. It is beyond what I can teach you here.

As far as the “vaccine” being given to people via throat swab rather than injection? Cows are Vaccinated with a Swab in their Nose. The technology to do this is also in existence.

#1 The swabs are coated with EO “Ethylene oxide”. There are potential health risks associated with the use of EO. Specifically, if a person breathes in EO. It can increase the risk of certain types of cancer, including breast cancer and cancer of the white blood cells, including non-Hodgkin lymphoma, myeloma, and lymphocytic leukemia.

The mainstream media was lying and saying they swab manufactures were not using EO in the swabs but through a FOIA request in UK, it was proven that manufactures of covid nasal swabs were indeed putting EO on the nasal swabs. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/freedom-of-information-responses-from-the-mhra-week-commencing-26-april-2021/freedom-of-information-request-on-use-of-ethylene-oxide-to-sterilise-swabs-used-in-testing-for-covid-19

#2 The Covid nasal swab test has nanobot technology on it that can change your DNA. I refer to this artice; Researchers engineer tiny, shape-changing machines that deliver medicine to the GI tract 'Theragrippers' are inspired by a parasitic worm that clamps onto its host's intestines. Johns Hopkins University researchers have designed tiny, star-shaped microdevices that latch onto intestinal mucosa and release drugs into the body. They could easily be putting this into people's brain via swabbing.

#3 It is my opinion that the PCR tests were RIGGED to show positive results! In 2020 Africa Tanzania President Magufuli, who had consistently downplayed the effect of the virus shocked the world. Tanzanian security forces randomly obtained non-human samples, including from a pawpaw fruit, a goat, motor vehicle oil and a sheep. All of them he says had been found to be positive to Covid-19.

According to Dr. Tom Levy, 3% H202 can be nebulized without dilution if one can tolerate it. I did just that when I came down with Covid in 2019. After the first couple of days I began to dilute it, and I never had any lung issues in spite of the fact that I was 62 with asthma. Anytime now that I feel that I'm getting sick, which isn't often, I go to the H202.

I have done the 3% hp with my nebulizer for my lungs. I put 7 drops of 3% hp and 30 drops of distilled water. If I want to do it longer I put 15 drops of hp 3% and 60 drops of distilled water. This is good for a lot of things.

Editor's Choice I'd like to ad my 2 cents on the Hydrogen Peroxide Inhalation methode from the late Bill Munro.

My father already had a history from asthma since he was 6 years old. Back in the old days young children would be sent to live by the sea for a few months in order to heal. He smoked, unfortunaltly, 'till the age of 57. Stopped, because he needed heart-surgery due to being diabetic since he was 16 years old. When he became older his lung problems reappeared again. With a bad case of double pneumonia in 2003 that nealry killed him.

I kind of stumbled across Earth clinic a few years later and learned about Bill Munro's Hydrogen Peroxide Inhalation. (Among so many other life-saving tips and knowledge.) Since then I was able to stop every bout of bronchitis he had before it could develop into pneumonia. Which would have killed him at his age. By using Hydrogen Peroxide in a nebuliser. Of course Food Grade 3% with the same amount of distilled water.

He died last May, 88 years old. And was regarded a walking medical wonder by doctors because he got that old in spite of his many health scares. Just died in his favorite chair because his heart simply stopped beating. I saved him many times with the healp of Earth Clinic when doctors had given up upon him. Thank you all for your contributions here.

God Bless you. I am too all over the internet and found Bill Munroe's recipe as I am trying to save my father from post covid 5 weeks now. How many times a day and how often did your dad nebulize? My dad seems to want it every 2-4 hours and he takes 3 big inhales. Can he take all that is in the little container which is attached to his nebulizer? it only holds 2 tbsl. The box said that the container where the peroxide and water goes is 1 treatment but so worried we do not want to overdo it. Did you use water or saline? I am using 1 part HP and 3 parts purified water. He has to have his inhaler at night to open his breathing up or he will not sleep and panic. we are going on day 3 of nebulizing and he said he feels it is helping him but I'm wondering if we are not giving him enough. They gave him an xray and told him he has scar tissue from covid but hoping the nebulizer will heal him. Thank you for your post as I am hanging on to everything I read to help save my dad. God Bless you.

Jeannie, I realize this is waaay past the time frame you wrote with in however, I spent 2 1/2 months in the hospital in the fall of 2021 with the Delta version of COVID and a case of pneumonia which I've been told comes very often with that version of COVID.

After getting out of the hospital and another month in rehab learning to walk again, I was sent home with various inhalers and steroids, along with two different nebulizer treatments to be taken daily.

I kept all this crap up until the end of May when I ended up back in the hospital with pneumonia again! They pumped me full of steroids and sent me on my way only to feel the congestion building again by mid July. I had a Pulmonologist appointment for the second week in September but didn't think I was gonna make it that long with the way I was feeling.

I had already been researching the possibility of using food grade H202 diluted with distilled water and used in my nebulizer and that was exactly what I did. I had a large syringe so I used 2 cc's of 12% food grade H202 mixed with 6 cc's of distilled water (bring the dilution to 1.5%). takes about 35-40 minutes to inhale, coughed frequently while doing this the first few days and by the 5th day, I realized the congestion was gone!!!

Told my Pulmonologist about this when I saw him in September and he looked at me like I had just fallen off a turnip truck! Poor man didn't have a clue about H202 treatments and didn't feel comfortable suggesting I continue it.

I now take a nebulizer treatment with the above mentioned twice a week and am doing well at breathing. I have gone from walking 100 yards before all but dying to walking 6 miles a day.

I have a Spirometry exam next month ( lung capacity test) and a lung catscan which may show lung improvement ( I was told I had 'excessive' scar tissue within my lungs).

I came within a few hours of being best friends with a pine box while in the hospital, but God decided he didn't want me quite yet so here I am today still being a pain in the kazoo!

I must admit I am only on the website infrequently but please leave any questions.

Robert, I do the same thing. I buy food grade 35% H2O2 by the gallon and cut it to 1 1/2 by 22 to 1 dilution with distilled H2O. I breath it in my nebulizer to control my serious lung condition and it never fails. O3 also works, another discussion, tho! John

Hi Robert. I stink at math...please help me figure this out :). I bought food grade hydrogen peroxide at 3% strength, I know it sounds stupid but how do I get that to 1.5? I realize it's half, but what would be the water/hydrogen peroxide ratio?

Thank you in advance! I'm so happy to hear your positive story and that you are sharing it. We are not getting anything from the docs so thank GOD for this site.

If you use a drop of 3% HP, use the same amount of distilled water. That would dilute the 3% HP in half, which would be 1.5%. In short, dilute the 3% HP in the same amount of distilled water.

Editor's Choice I tried Hydrogen Peroxide a couple of times 2 years ago when I was having severe issues that the doctors could not help. 8 months of coughing up blood and having to sit up in bed due to what sounded exactly like a death crackle if I lay down at even a 45 degree angle! I felt like my chest was made of glass. CT scan showed no cancer. O2 levels were not too bad at that time though they would drop to 80 at night. During waking hours rarely got below 92. Still struggled to breathe though.

In desperation, I used Hydrogen Peroxide in nebulizer diluted (regular 3 percent over the counter from CVS). I only did this a few times over 2-3 days and when I went to the pulmonary specialist for a checkup my o2 level that day read 100 percent. I HAD NEVER seen that and actually it scared me a little so I stopped the peroxide. Things improved for a time until I was put on Arava for Autoimmune issues. Immediately breathing issues. Rheumie seemed unconcerned and even angry that I had adjusted my dose to 1 every 2 days just to breathe for a few days and still be able to walk!!

Long story short, fast forward to Rheumie halving the dose and instructing me to take 1 every other day and persist until side effects cleared up. THEY NEVER did and my breathing got worse and worse. I realize now I probably was getting infections that they were ignoring due to the Arava lowering my immune system. I no longer run fever after a lifetime of severe medical problems so can be quite ill with no fever but doctors only take you serious if your blood work shows really high elevations of Neut/Lymph etc. and mine were only small elevations and my temperature actually would go in the opposite direction. The sicker I get the LOWER it goes. I have seen it at 95 many mornings. And yes Thyroid checked.

Long story short I progressed to being unable to breathe at night. Sleepless nights wondering if I should go to ER. Palpitations(both PVC and PAC) coming about every 3 to 10 beats. Nebulizer meds and even a dose of Racepinephrine at times offered little help. The past month I had gotten so bad I could not walk 10 feet for the weakness and palpitations and shortness of breath. I did not want to go to ER and be put on a Ventilator. I was literally waiting to die at home and struggling to breathe is no fun so I knew I would eventually give in and go to the hospital one of those nights. My o2 levels were now dropping to 80 while still awake which they had never ever done.

I had been afraid to use the Peroxide again due to the unknowns, but now things were critical I felt. I LITERALLY FELT IT WAS die or try it again. THREE days ago I nervously tried putting some peroxide in my nebulizer cup and leaving the mouthpiece off. I would put my mouth over it for a second and breathe it in deeply. I only did this 3 times with the full strength peroxide. Only did it about 3 times both days. WELL LAST NIGHT MY o2 levels did not drop below 91 and mostly hovered at 92 to 94 before falling asleep. THIS MORNING I WOKE UP AND HAD SLEPT THRU THE NIGHT without having to wake up to do a breathing treatment. I did not cough up anything much this a.m. I could take a deep breath and the PVC and PAC were down to maybe 1 or 2 a minute instead of 20-30 a minute!! BUT THE BEAUTY of the side effects was I COULD WALK when I got up today. My RA and PSA seemed greatly improved. I had energy for the first time in 6 months!!!

I am crying now because today is the first day in months that I believe I might be able to see my grandkids for Christmas!! I was not sure I would even still be here by Christmas! I cannot tell you what it feels like to be able to take a deep breath and walk more than a few feet without resting!!!! I am optimistic that I will continue to improve.

THANK ALL OF YOU FOR POSTING or I may have been too afraid of doing more harm. I think I may live now though.

I am now convinced that I have had mold and bacteria in my lungs causing most of these issues and doctors just don't treat these I have long found. The peroxide is killing it off I believe. I take 7 days a month of an antifungal (itraconazole) and my doc kept saying if it was fungs in my lungs the antifungal should take care of it. SHE IS WRONG WRONG WRONG.

Theresa (Tallahassee, Florida), I appreciated your article. I have had what is believed to be pneumococcal (systemic with many strong symptoms beside severe acute bronchitis) since late October 2015. I have had 2 regular doctors, 2 ER visits, an Infectious disease specialist (with a new one coming up at the end of this month), a cardiologist, and a pulmonologist! My situation was pretty bad initially but then worsened around Thanksgiving. The doctors haven't really done much (and nothing to cure the problem but just help with symptoms - which hasn't worked). Pneumococcal - Streptococcus Pneumoniae... Despite the name, the organism causes many types of pneumococcal infections other than pneumonia. These invasive pneumococcal diseases include bronchitis, rhinitis, acute sinusitis, otitis media, conjunctivitis, meningitis, bacteremia, sepsis, osteomyelitis, septic arthritis, endocarditis, peritonitis, pericarditis, cellulitis, and brain abscess. BTW, I was on that same antifungal medication (Itraconazole) in 2009 for a rare type of fungal pneumonia (Chronic pulmonary aspergillosis) from 1/19/2009 until early April of 2009 before it finally knocked out the fungal infection! In the current case, I have been on a 10-day cycle of 500mg Levofloxacin and a 10-day cycle of 750mg Levofloxacin in December to early January. Nothing. Which means that it could be fungal - or a pneumococcal strain (Streptococcus pneumoniae) that is resistant to Pneumococcal Bacteria (of the 90-some known strains, all are resistant to sulfa-based antibiotics, most are resistant to penicillin-based antibiotics, and up to 30% are resistant to Levofloxacin - and all other antibiotics except Vancomycin (no known strain of S. Pneumoniae is resistant to Vancomycin... so of course no one will consider that option). Anyway, until it gets to the point of getting in to see the new Infectious Disease specialist (who is supposed to be top notch - and who got things cleared up in 2009), I am going to use the Hydrogen Peroxide mist therapy (using saline mist sprayers as I don't have a nebulizer). I believe that in addition to killing off bacteria, fungi, mold, viruses, whatever, that it has a strong capability to loosen up clogged congestion, especially (as in my case where there is strong inflammation that causes chest congestion to "dry up" and clog internal bronchial / lung surfaces... in other words, a very good liquifier and expectorant. I hope that your condition has cured up.

Thank you, Leroy, for your reply to my email last year. I just noticed the updates. Your issues sound similar to mine. Yes, I have also had the eye issues related to my fungus, histoplasmosis, that I take the maintenance of Itraconazole for. I am back because I got so much better last year I stopped using the Peroxide. I found myself again in serious situation much the same as last year. Could not even turn over in bed. Struggle to breathe, afraid to go to sleep due to low Oxygen. Same situation as before. Stupidly I had forgotten about the peroxide so had suffered now for 3 months! Started back so looking forward to breathing again. This time I will keep it up permanently. Good luck to everyone. Without this site I think I might have not been here this year!!

Dear Theresa; are you still doing the hp treatment and do you feel it's helping? I have COPD and emphysema and have been put on albuterol at $50 a month with no noticeable change other than a shrinking of the bank account. Doctors seem to be of little help. My last one that I visited for chest congestion and difficulty swallowing ordered bloodwork and an xray. When the labs came back I was told that my cholesterol was a little high, but in range. Small comfort, considering I was CHOKING to death. MUST be the cholesterol. When I asked about the xray, I was referred to a pulmie in Tallahassee, a Dr. Ha....an, for an appointment in August. Any experience with this? Thanks for your sharing and lol. Garry

Garry, the hydrogen peroxide inhalation cure for COPD has been shared on the internet since the year 2000.

One man without insurance had to sleep with his head up on an ironing board thought to spray Peroxide into his lungs to help him breathe, he was stuck laying in his bed, could not do anything, in two weeks time he was back on his feet because he used/inhaled Peroxide. YouTube video here:

Hi Garry,

I have COPD and was at the severe stage, in and out of hospital, chest infections, one after the other, on oxygen and unable to do much of anything. I discovered FGH2O2 one year ago and started on it, and twelve months down the track, I have a life back, I do not use oxygen, I have reduced my inhalers down to almost zero, I'm out and about now, I do experience some getting out of breath, so I have a short rest, and then resume whatever it was that I was doing I'm on a small dosage each day now, I am so happy with what FGH2O2 has done for me, I highly recommend it.

Hi Robert,

No I was not coughing up any black mucus when I started on the FGH2O2, I had given up smoking quite some time prior to finding out about the Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy, at that time though I was on a mucus clearing tablet, called "BISOLVON" in Australia, 2 times daily, it's an over the counter medicine and is excellent it just turns mucus to liquid, so with just a little cough, and just spit, no hacking cough that can leave you very breathless.

But now I do not need it as the H2O2 does the job and I'm always mucus free.

Thanks Robert for the question, all the best.

-----------------

Hi Freda.

Thanks for the question, I take the FGH2O2, in 8 OZ of distilled water. These days though I still take 25 drops of H2O2 3 times daily, but if I'm going to be away from home for any length of time, I take my little inhalation spray that I mix myself...1 part 35% FGH2O2 to 11 parts water, you can mix this in a glass and then fill the spray container, then drink the rest! I hope I have answered your question Freda, if not, or you need more info do please contact me again.. All the best.

Geoff (Delaide, Australia) on 06/05/2016, LUNG issues, and COPD.

Last december while mom was in a nursing home, she got a new roommate, who had COPD, she was constantly on the concentrated oxygen machine and nebulizer, so we chatted a bit about what she had, I could see she had little strength, and spent most time in bed and on the machines, so I asked her if she was willing to try something to improve her condition....she was willing, so I looked up COPD and the one thing that stood out was, ACV, apple cider vinegar....So I asked if she was willing to try that and she agreed, so I gifted he a baggy full of ACV capsules, and within 10 days, she not only left the room but walked to the nurses station down the hall, but also walked 3x that far to get to the main greeting area by the entrance, so, I seen it with my own eyes, what a huge improvement the ACV made on her quality of life, I was pleased for her and you could see she was pleased as well. Hope that helps.

Hi Kennywally,

Any information at all with regards to COPD is very helpful! I have heard of the ACV as well but not tried it..(as yet) the H2O2 has done wonders for me, but anything that comes along I'm willing to give it a go.

In a Rehab unit I was in a few years ago now, there was a large sign on the wall....it read, "When you can't breath, nothing else matters" and that sentence is so true.

Thanks for letting me know about the ACV. all the best Kennywally.

Hi Alice.

I really cannot provide you with the information you requested about stopping oxygen at night, or about your ulcer. All I can say is that starting the program will be the best thing for you, perhaps you can do both methods, ie; drinking and inhalation method, I do both every day now with wonderful results, and amaze myself with what I am able to achieve, it just gets better and better with time. Alice I do wish you all the best on your journey to good health. Geoffrey

My dear friend, I am very happy that Hydrogen Peroxide helped you with your breathing issues. May I suggest using food grade H/P? Get the 35% and make your own.(buy the best and cleanest)

God knows what is in the Pharmacy H/P, what water they use and how their containers are washed. As you may know it is very easy to make your own 3% H/P at home with distilled water.

Eleven drops of distilled water for every drop of 35% H/P and you have your own very clean and very home made 3% Hydrogen Peroxide. Taking that internally is the best thing you can do for your breathing and everything else you may wish to use it.

All the best

BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS

I started on the H202 protocol 12 days ago. Drinking 3x a day. Plus the spay pump and every once in a while the nebulizer. Since I have started, I am coughing constantly and wheezing. I recently had pneumonia and was told I have early stages of copd. I am still taking my prescription inhalers as needed.....Is this part of the healing crisis???? I hope Is that normal? I am getting nervous. Anyone else experienced coughing and wheezing while going through this? Help

Dear Melissa,

I would greatly reduce the amount/frequency of treatment and work up to more slowly if it suits you.

Also, you might look in to Mullein Tea, which is gentle and good for lung issues.

I have also experienced severe wheezing, coughing and restricted breathing since I started the protocol. Mine started within 2 days, and has gotten worse over this first week. I had finally gotten my asthma under control through using homeopathic remedies and then it started again with the H2O2 protocol. Not being able to breathe is a side effect I can't deal with so I stopped the protocol. Your testimony is the only place I've seen where someone else experienced this, too. I wish I knew if this was “normal” to experience.

I think one of the most frustrating things about Earth Clinic is the confusion it generates for many. It's hard to find a protocol that someone uses that is clear, concise and well-written. What would it take to simply outline your own routine--with the products used, the amount you take and how often. How hard is that?

So, I have asthma that is bordering on COPD. I came here to learn more about hydrogen peroxide inhalation, and of course, I had to wade through hundreds of confusing posts to get to the main idea and come up with a plan.

So, to help others, here is what I learned and what I am now doing:

I don't have a nebulizer handy and didn't want to wait to order one. So, I went out to the drugstore and bought a store brand nasal inhaler. I also bought plain over-the-counter hydrogen peroxide. The man who started this protocol used plain hydrogen peroxide for 20 years to no ill effect, and if it's good enough for him, then certainly it is good enough for me.

I came home and cleaned out the nasal spray bottle and put it in boiling water for a minute to cleanse and sterilize it. Then I filled it up with the hydrogen peroxide. Then I inhaled and sprayed a few squirts toward the back of my throat. I squirted two or three times.

I did not dilute the hydrogen peroxide with distilled water. I did exactly what the man who started this all did. Don't worry about food grade peroxide and nebulizers and all the other stuff if you don't choose to. In fact, to start this protocol to see if you want to continue, just start out with these basic supplies and try it that way. If you want to graduate to the food grade H202 and a fancy delivery system, you can always add these things after an initial trial period.

Spraying it into your throat and inhaling may take some practice, but after a few times you'll figure out the best system.

I was having a huge asthma exacerbation and this immediately lessened it. I was amazed.

I also bought a netti pot. I cleaned out my sinuses, got rid of the offending allergens and immediately felt better.

I plan to do the netti pot three times a day and the inhalation protocol three times a day as well. I am starting with short short blasts of the inhalation protocol three times a day.

I will report back again.

All of these products are easily bought at a local pharmacy at very little expense.

I hope this helps people who come here and are reading through pages of comments with very few directives, lists or protocols mentioned.

You can always put a disclaimed at the bottom of your post that says, "I claim no responsibility for the health of others, blah, blah, blah."

Good luck everyone. I am so excited that after one session with both of my new regimens that I am already feeling some relief. And completely drug free, too. Zyrtec is expensive and really hasn't helped me much for a while.

As far as using BigBox store variety of Hydrogen Peroxide...I don't recommend anyone using it to inhale or consume [.] why? ... because it has about 4 additional additives in it, that can cause problems, if you inhale it etc. It is made to be used externally only. It is recommended to use 'Food Grade' only. Whether you use a nebulizer, eyedropper, mist inhaler bottle, or in a room humidifier etc. Always read directions before use. It appears those who have the most problems and get into a bit of trouble with it, are those who 'don't read the info available' prior to use and just guess the dosage. I've used 35%, 6%, 3% & 1.5% over the years for different issues, and never had a problem to speak of, except for spilling a drop or two of 35% on my fingers, once in a blue moon. Do your homework first, then use your peroxide in a responsible manner. It does wonders. I can attest to it. I also use it in conjunction with micro-particle silver colloids with 'great effect' for over 15 yrs., when I needed it. It's a one-two punch combination, for many health issues. Semper Paratus.

I have used food grade peroxide for five years. I have used the atomizing spray method at 3 % for colds and lung infections over that period. As a pneumonia survivor one is always wary of contracting it again. I was recently in the hospital for exposure to black mold. I began my peroxide therapy a week before I went in the hospital. The doctor's first question was if I had pneumonia prior. When I told him yes he cautioned me the mold exposure put me at high risk.

I continued my therapy throughout the stay in the hospital. In the end the doctors were amazed at my lung capacity and the clearing of the spots in my lungs in less than four days. I have used peroxide for many different ailments over the years, with nothing but success. At sixty four years old the doctors were amazed at my low blood pressure, lung capacity and condition of my heart. I attribute much of that good health to a peroxide regiment. I have no problem accepting the success stories I read on this site.

BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS

I am a smoker and have shortness of breath, I thought I would try bill munroe's hydrogen peroxide inhalation, I have been doing this for about a week or 10 days. I do believe my shortness of breath might be a "little" better but I am so tired I cannot hardly stay awake. I usually get 5-6 hrs sleep per night but now am getting 7-8 hr sleep @ night and have no energy at all. Is this from the hydrogen peroxide inhalation or do you think it would be something else? I am thinking of quitting the hydrogen peroxide, what does everyone think? Thanks.

I've researched a lot about h2o2 and as it is healing you, people can experience different symptoms I'm led to believe, that one of them is fatigue due to the extra stress put on your system due to the peroxide doing healing and cleansing within your cells. It should pass through time. Thought I would share this with you.

I too am a smoker of many years and have had shortness of breath to the point where I k new I needed to stop smoking but easier said than done. I really Dont believe its the peroxide causing your fatigue...but again, I am no doctor. I first started out using the drinking method of 3 drops of 3% food grade peroxide into an 8 oz glass of water, 3 times a day. (You increase the drops 1 more each day until you reach 25), and even when I was doing this method, I was breathing easier. I have issues with bacteria in my stomach and that's why I chose this method. After reaching 14 drops , 3 times a day, I was getting very nauseated so I changed to this method. When I started, just 2 days ago, I was already starting to feel fatigued and weak from what the doctors call a challenged immune system. Long story short, I knew I was on the road back to a hospital stay as the swollen glands and lymphs were the start of what put me there before. Sorry, the fatigue was the next symptom that was totally depressing me...until...I started the inhalation method!! I was so shocked and amazed at the almost instant dismiss of fatigue and felt like a new person. Not only that but the 2nd day..I actually started coughing up stuff in my lungs...which didn't seem to be coming out with other medicines. I breathe easier...my mind is clearer..(no brain fog), etc. Tryst me...it took me a few times to get it right...but inhaling the mist only...is the ticket. Make sure you are using a "pump" nasal spray bottle...not the kind where u squeeze the center of the bottle as that's not giving you a fine mist. Didn't mean to rattle on but I hope this helped you some.

No one can be sure I guess, but I actually got more energy from the inhalation therapy. One thought came to mind tho as a long time smoker myself. It is not recommended to use the peroxide after any breathing treatment or cigarette. Causes chemical reaction. So try that. Make sure you have not smoked or done any breathing tx close to the time you do the Perox.

Good luck.

If you had a heavy fungal infection in your lungs (these are often very difficult to diagnose, especially histo and a few others. Not like other fungus at all! It took a very long time on high dose of antifungals to make improvement years back when I had it disseminate again. Despite not having Aids, but actually having an OVER active immune(autoimmune) I have gotten disseminated histo 2x in my life. I suspect I am not alone and many are never diagnosed properly. Blood test missed it on 3 out 4 tests. This is worse because most doctors do the wrong test for histo. I am nearly blind from the immune reactivity during and after histo subsides in some of us. That is very rare tho and I suspect many are walking around with low grade, undiagnosed fungal infections draining the life from us. I am lucky my test was positive and they now keep me on maintenance. DOES NOT STOP me from getting some fungal infections in my lungs tho and the peroxide DOES HELP!

Hello,

I have been researching holistic approaches to cancer as well as reversing the effects of damage to lung tissue from smog, chemicals and pollutants in the air we breath.

My father has had asthma since he was 6 years old and I am going to recommend he try the nasal pump with 3% hydrogen peroxide for his condition. I first heard about this method from a neighbor of mine who claims he cured his dad's lung cancer by providing him with hydrogen peroxide through a nebulizer. I was fascinated! I am fed up with the FDA mafia trying to make money and take advantage of the sick at such an exhorbitant price. Techniques like these cannot even legally be administered as a practice here in the states. Only surgery and chemo are currently legal. Its sad, not to mention downright wrong and immoral that we cannot share these alternate methods freely with the public without having to look over our shoulder or risk getting shut down if we use the wrong verbatim for advertising or information.

Thank You,

Jonathan

I have suffered with lung infections on a grand scale since 1999. Tests have ruled out genetic immune or enzyme disorders of any kind. I have never been a smoker but my parents were and my mother died of emphysema. I am now 56. I have been on antibiotics almost continuously for many years mainly for Haemophilus influenzae or Pseudomonas. The latter being responsible for hospitalization for IV administration of antibiotics. A tough time indeed. As soon as the antibiotics are finished an infection returns. The organisms of the past few years were not antibiotic resistant. Of course this has no doubt lead to lung damage and a diagnosis of probable COPD etc. No recent CT to prove but symptoms and a FEV of 3.2 suggestive if continued decline of lung function and disability by way of physical impairment. My Dr noting a lung transplant as my only hope if needed in the future. Gene therapy another maybe one day. Anyway the last time I completed my 8 week antibiotic treatment the infection and lung inflammation started to return once again!

This time after reading the experiences and advice regarding peroxide at 3% inhalation I decided to try it before more antibiotics. The effect was rapid. The usual bad tasting light green phlegm disappearing within days. I have only been using it around a week so far. And with the exception of a slight sore throat no adverse reactions to report. If this works I expect an increase of life expectancy of many years. I shall report again in due course. As for lung function improvement I do not have any data to advise as yet. Also I still struggle with discomfort in the chest/lung area. But again time will tell.

I was drinking a few drops of 3% peroxide for a month: started with 2 drops into soup spoon with water on empty stomach. And every day I would add 1 more drop: 3 drops -day 2, 4 drops - day 3 till 7 days - but maximum I was taking 6-7 drops of peroxide on big spoon with water. After one week - one week rest (without peroxide). And again repeat. I did that for a month. Now I stopped. I can walk now (maniscus on my knees were ripped and I couldn't walk even 1 block). I read that peroxide helps on everything, including cancer.

But now I heard that a woman was taking 15 drops a day (I don't know how long and how many times a day) and she got blood cancer... It helped me tremendosly: I can walk, it stopped my arthritis - my pains disapeared, my back didn't hurt. Anyone tried that like me? I got kind of scared when they said about blood cancer... I read it does cure the cancer...

Hi , I see you have had lung problems, one thing I could suggest is taking the amino acid, NAC, my girlfriend cured her asthma with this, it is a great lung cleaner. Jarrow makes a great brand, it should be taken immediately when you wake up on empty stomach. You will see how your lungs will clear out.

Also another lung healer is colloidal silver, also taken on empty stomach. That's three hours after food or an hour before food.. You can't take colloidal silver more than a week though or your skin will turn gray.. Ok
Luck and light , xoxoJ

NAC will boost Glutathione which is like a second immune system. Be sure to take recommended at least 200 mcg Selenium and extra B-6 for the NAC to work properly; 500 mg 2 times daily during infection and reduce as health improves. Also drink plenty of clean water and kidney stones shouldn't be a problem, but with many yrs infection, kidney disease is common so one may want to drink some Cranberry juice on occasion. Watermelon, Parsley, and Juniper Berries are all good for kidneys and will help clear infection.

Mike, are you filtering the air in your house??? If not, improving air quality could help. In times of any possible lung infection, I put a few drops eucalyptus on my shirt just below my chin so to breath the germ-killing oils into the lungs. Even better is to have a steam-room with eucalyptus for inhalation therapy. Also I use Colloidal Silver one day then H2O2 next day Nebulized for my lung conditions. Astragalus Root is a very good immune & lung tonic.
