Asthma
Posted by L R (Pretoria, South Africa) on 02/20/2009
Is H2O2 inhalation safe for my son who is on asthma medication?
This concerns H2O2 and particularly inhalation. I read the whole post on inhalation including the warning to smokers and individuals who have had medication via inhalers. My son was diagnosed with asthma a week back and as I have previous good experiences with drinking H2O2 (it eliminated my chronic sinusitis) I gave him a very dilute solution in fruit juice. Immediately his colour picked up and he says he feels great - but he is 7 and a sunshine, and says that of every medication I give him. He takes his cortisone by inhaler 2x per day as per prescription, but he coughs chronically and suffers from constricted chest, and as he is very active he was also prescribed Ventolin (a bronchodilator). With him regularly inhaling cortisone and having inhaled the Ventolin, would I cause a dangerous situation giving him H2O2 by nebulizer? Should I rather keep giving it to him in juice?

Hi, I just discovered h2o2 and quickly bought some FG 35%, now I am planning on inhaling it but i can't locate the warning for smokers you have mentioned (as you would imagine I am a smoker), would you bee kind enough to direct me to it ?
Many thanks,

What type of H2o2 are you referring to, the 3% kind found in regular stores or foods grade 35%? If you are using the 3% in a nasal spray bottle, are you diluting it? What ratio? I'm very interested! I'm a nearly 40, causasion female who began to grey @ age 18

Just got to this very interesting site and have read everything from the top. Somewhere up there is a sentence that clearly says "We now do NOT suggest Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide due to its dangers if not properly diluted. See Page 1 for dangers."
Anyhoo I will be trying this very soon!!!

I checked the ingredient label on the over the counter brand of Hydrogen Peroxide Solution at the CVS Pharmacy.

So does this mean it is actually food grade?

HPV
Posted by J (Se) on 09/06/2020
I never realized anyone had replied to my comments, but I came back looking for information on fibroids. Anyway, I was diagnosed with HPV, and the warts were present. There was only like one or two small bumps at the back of the vagina closer to the anus. I drink the hydrogen peroxide three times a day, and inhaled I think six times a day. I can't remember when I drink the peroxide in relation to meal time. I'm currently doing it now and I am doing it 1 hour before a meal. I pumped the nasal sprayer five or six times in the back of my throat while inhaling.

Well after my last post, the virus i had for over 2 months went in a week, i inhaled every two hours when awake, though couldnt sleep much and got worse after a couple of days, then gradually the symptoms went, i still have a slight soreness in the top of my chest but thats all, im so grateful to thie h202 and the info on this site - the acv has brought down my bp and cured my gerd and oil pulling has massively improved my stiff joints
Im very happy and impressed with these more natural ways of treatment - still a little concerned about taking bicarb with the acv because of the possibility of it increasing bp..........has anyone answered that question yet? I noticed someone else asked about it.......J
Sinus Issues
Posted by Keri (Parkville, MD) on 12/30/2008
I am so interested in trying the inhalation method of peroxide therapy. I have suffered from chronic sinus problems for years. My left ear has been plugged for over two years now. The older I get, the more congestion I have in my lungs, even though I have never been a smoker. How exactly do I inhale this? Do you spray on the tongue and then breathe in or do you breathe in at the same time you spray in mouth (like you would an asthma inhaler)?
I am also wondering if there is any danger of this therapy while on prescription medications. I take Tramadol almost daily due to the headaches from sinus problems. I am hopeful that H2O2 will take care of my problems and that I will be off this med ASAP.
Thanks...so grateful to have found this site!!

hi - i just wanted to ask if you have ever tried the sea salt and water remedy? you add sea salt (i think 1 teaspoon per cup of water - you can look up the exact measurement on-line - i just do it by feel) and hold one nostril and snort the water mix into your sinuses and it will come out your mouth. do this several times with both nostrils. they sell neti pots for this at health food stores - or you can use a baby ear cleaning bulb syringe - but i always just use a bowl. this should clean all the crud out of your sinuses so that good bacteria can be there instead of the bad. i've also heard that people had luck adding baking soda or apple cider vinegar to the mixture.
also garlic minced and a few drops of water added (take the clear liquid) and snort it works to heal sinus infections - but it does hurt for a moment. the sea salt mixture does not hurt.

Hi again, Report: the 2 sprays up the nostrils stoped the running nose for about 20 mins, than it started running again.
The next day I started inhaling the 1.5% FG HP first 2 sprays then 4, apart from a slicht tingely feeling I dont feel more releaved. gotta check what regular use does, might try 3% next could be the dose is too low.
Keep ya posted.

★★★☆☆BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS
Hydrogen Peroxide Inhalation Method
Yea and Nea
A couple hours after trying the inhalation method I began to have severe abdominal pains headaches, chills, and a fever that lasted for a few days. I give it both a Yeah and a Nea becouse I am still optimistic that this method might work becouse it could of just been the toxins being cleaned out of my body.

Posted by Kira (Saratoga, NY) on 12/23/2008
Yes, could be toxins moving out and could be you got a bug/cold/flu same time and thought was side effect of H202 inhalation. Did you try again and get same side effects?
I only write this because similar has happened to me. When I found b/f got same symptoms, I realized it couldn't have come from current home remedy I was testing, since he didn't take it too.
But could also be temporary healing crisis. Try drinking more water. I sometimes take this Echinacea-Goldenseal tincture and some vitamin C in water a few times a day for a few days (as bottle says) to deal with healing crisis and its helped very much.

I found that 3% H202 helped me with my pneumonia and airway track infections which I have had twice this year: My breathing is so much better. Also found it to move on sore throats and blocked noses from flu..gone instantly: I use it daily as spray inhaler: And I will find it does so much more:
Change:
Vitamin C Powder: IT WORKS and simple
It worked for me: Skin cancers gone
Now another that is wonderful is Vitamin C powder....great to move on skin cancers, boils, warts and many many other things....Method to use the powder is to wet infection by either sorbaline or olive oil....then taken a large pinch of Vit C dust and rub into the infected area keep rubbing until it turns into paste then keep rubbing until it disapates......do each day until skin cancer moves away: It worked for me: Skin cancer is just a virus...I also have heard that it also helps with cancers within...
NOTE: Now it must not be used on Kemo people to use it.....as it will not work..it will crystalize inside ones body: The powder can be taken orally with water or juice it can be purchased from either a chemist or health food stores for around $10 Aus
And it does much more: Injections of high dosage Vit C into infected area's also helps for ones who R ill...I also wonder about aids plus other viruses and infections? Much more

Hi Sashalani,
I have used colloidal silver for 15 years in a nebuliser for asthma and COPD and as a preventative when I have an upset stomach or a cold. My children and grandchildren use it for the same things. I have drunk anything up to half a litre a day with no side effects or problems whatsoever. I used it frequently when I was living in malaysia to cure "Delhi Belly. "
I use the strongest strength which I make myself. However there some important things to remember when using colloidal silver. It must be made only using distilled water. Water that is not distilled will make silver nitrate - that is what causes skin to turn blue, it will make you very sick if you use it in a nebuliser. Colloidal silver should be clear when its made. If its cloudy throw it out, the water has salts and or minerals in it. Colloidal silver must be kept in the dark and well away from any electrical sources. Hope this helps, Marlane ellis

For the woman with asthmatic children I would definitely recommend the so-called "watercure". Instructions are free and the only cost is for sea salt.
In my H2O/H2O2 research I've noticed a similarity in the greatly varied responses to this therapy. and it occurs to me it makes perfect sense that water in a dehydrated body (it is estimated that over 70% in US are chronically dehydrated) would have a profound and greatly varied, overall effect, just as an influx of oxygen would.
It seems that some are frightened by what is called the "healing crisis", but one must remember that oxygen (like plain water) is going to have an effect on EVERYthing, including problems one may not even be aware they are having. These "new" things may flair up, temporarily, as they are cleared and appear to be side effects when they are merely the healing of previously unknown problems.
I'm glad I found this site. Now I have water with extra oxygen plus, less craving for cigarettes! And now, if I could just get rid of this craving for coffee...
Thanks EarthClinic!!

As I have not tried this treatment, I have been reviewing all the comments. When I read Jay's comment about the only negative outcome was a loss of smell and taste for several months, I felt compelled to respond. Years ago my grandfather got one of those horrible viruses and lost all sense of taste and smell for life-my mother for years! So, I would venture to say that the treatment just might have restored (rather than caused) your senses in a short period of time.

Hi there.. About hydrogen peroxide, I have spoken twice to Bill Monro and yes he is a real person and he will tell you he is very deaf and he has rigged up a way to hear you if you call him. Anyway I have used his method many times, Mostly to give me energy. I am now a 67 year old guy .
I stopped using it for awhile and about 6 months ago I started getting a burning sensation in my esophagus!! And also in my tube going down into my stomach when I ate some thing hot.. well I tried TAGAMET which I got told I would have to take all my life to control it and to get a camera put down my throat to see whats going on.
well I didnt have the camera and the TAGAMET DIDNT DO MUCH ABOUT THE PROBLEM.
So I remembered the H2O2 and started blowing and breathing it down my throat again. After about a week of doing this my burning sensation of my breathing HAS COMPLETLY GONE When I do take it at night the following morning it clears up everything off my chest and yes I get a good nights sleep and im left with only a slight burning going down my tubes into my stomach .
I will now start taking more into my stomach and im pretty sure it will clear that problem up pretty quickly. I also use hydogen peroxide all the time on my skin to stop infections as I spend a lot of time in the rural area of the phillipines and there are a lot of bugs here that just loves to bite you ..
So yes people If you have a probs with different parts of your body.. Then try it out.. Read what other people have said about it and go for it. And thanks again Bill.. I havn't talked to him for over 12 months.. But he is a very nice man

Yesterday morning I awoke with the beginnings of the flu. My tell tale sign was that my neck ached like crazy right at the base of the skull and I was severely fatigued. My husband had been sick with the flu last week so I figured my turn had come. Well, I started inhaling my 3% peroxide h202 at 10:00am every 2 to 3 hours and by 5:00pm I was back to normal... no neck ache, no exhaustion, nothing. I am going to keep it up for a total of 3 days I think to make sure the virus has been eliminated, but this is the 5th time I have done this remedy for a virus bug and it has worked every time. It is a gem of a remedy. Thanks, Bill!

I came down with pneumonia Jan 2007. Doctors at the urgent care gave me Factive and it cleared up the pneumonia at first. Then around summertime (same year) I developed a chronic cough which I felt was from the initial pneumonia. Around Novemeber I came down with full blown bronchitis, or some kind of a lung obstruction. I ran into Bill's HP treatment protocol and everything is fine now. What a rough year I had in 2007 regarding my health. This was especially difficult for a guy that has never been sick in his life. I will never stop using HP again. All of this suffering could have been stopped months ago. Thanks again Bill and Earth Clinic....
Fatigue
Posted by Christiane (Los Angeles, CA) on 10/31/2007

I have been experimenting with several remedies. I have been doing the HP inhalation for a few weeks now but only when fatigued. I use a throat spray bottle and spray a few times until I cough while inhaling, that seems to be the only way that I can determine that it's not just coating the back of my throat. I notice that it works almost immediately to get me out of that "desperately need more sleep" haze. It lifts that "heavy" feeling. I tried it again 2 days ago when I only got 4 hours of sleep with the intent that if I did the HP inhalation and it worked AGAIN then I would be convinced. I'm completely convinced for fatigue purposes at this time. I intend to increase my usage soon.
Also, I read where someone mentioned using iodine on cysts. I am using it on a cyst (may be caused by an ingrown hair or not!)on my shin, about the size of the circumferance of a sharpie marker. I started this a few weeks ago and was applying the iodine once a day for about 3 days straight. Then I forgot about it. I just happened to look this morning and it has shrunk by about half and the skin on top just peeled off. I will be starting up again today to see if I can get rid of it completely over the next week or so.
I have Candida but no insurance and I was trying a product that has been rated as the number 1 recommended product. Unfortunately, it felt like my kidneys were not happy about it so I had to get off of it. I am going to try some other methods to see if it helps. I'll post when I know more.

If you use too high of a concentration of hydrogen peroxide you risk burning delicate tissues in the lung and will not be able to reverse that damage. That is why it is VERY IMPORTANT to use food grade and make certain it is diluted down to 3%.

Hi everyone, I'd like to add an update on my uses of HP. I use the inhaled method, 10 squirts, twice in a row, usually 2 or 3 times a day,and am so very happy with it. I no longer have bronchitis! I was dignosed with Graves disease Dec 06 which caused terrible jitters and rapid heartbeats. I inhale the HP when this happens and within minutes the jitters and rapid heartbeat subside! I can't thank Earthlink.com enough! I tell all my friends about HP and to email Bill Munro, and I tell that Bill will call them back promptly! A special thanks to Bill!

Asthma
Posted by Bethany (el paso) on 01/19/2023
3% is 1/12th of 35% ( 3x12=36 Close enough). To go from 35% to 3%, you need to 1/12 of the solution-H2O2 and the other 11/12 of the solution in distilled water. 1:11 is the ratio. So if you use 1 oz of 35% H2O2, add 11 oz of distilled water and you will have 3%.

Bill's inhalation method turned my tongue yellowy green for more than two weeks though. I only did it for about two weeks and then saw that my tongue was yellowy green. This lasted for about two and a half weeks and freaked me out. I put lemon juice in my water and I think that helped get rid of it. I just want readers to know that this is a risk. However, I am going to try the other method - ingesting the 35% food grade H202. I will let you know how I get on. Danny. If anybody wants to talk to me about this, Bill has my phone number.

General Feedback
Posted by Robyn Morley (Australia) on 05/19/2020
Why do you strongly state "DO NOT INHALE IT UP THE NOSE!!"? I have chronic sinusitis and thought this could be helpful.
EC: Because Bill's method does not dilute the peroxide and 3% H202 should be diluted at least 50/50 with distilled water if you are going to sniff it. That method (ie, the hydrogen peroxide in a neti pot or hydrogen peroxide and sea salt in water) is very popular if you check out the feedback on the Sinus Infection page of Earth Clinic.
