Hello, I am a 49 year old mother of six and 3 year breast cancer survivor. After grueling chemo and 3 surgeries finally resulting in double mastectomy, I was troubled with systemic Candida. All I can say is Thank God for your website!!!!!! I found you when researching treatment for recurring skin allergies of my dog. I used the borax/peroxide treatment for her and she is completely symptom free for a year now.

I have been following your Candida Cure protocols for 2 months now, my tongue is pinking up, digestive issues are GONE, and have not felt this good since BEFORE cancer diagnosis. I was diagnosed with Histoplasmosis scarring of the lungs 4 months ago, (Dr. First thought was metastatic Breast Cancer) and have had severe breathing issues since then.

I started 3% Hydrogen Peroxide Inhalation 3 days ago. I am a 20 year, pack a day smoker. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!! I have not breathed this well since college. I will continue this for the rest of my life, and after experiencing such trouble-free breathing for the first time in a long time, I now am going to quit this awful habit for good! Your website is a miracle for me, and I am recommending it to any and all of my loved ones. God Bless!!!! KellyJo

I'm having the best respite from a lifetime of asthma, allergies and chronic bronchitis since beginning three natural therapies. A) I take Vit D3 drops (Bioceuticals brand from health food shop) daily. B) I paint Lugol's iodine solution on my skin several times a week (just half a dropper full). C) I inhale 3% H Peroxide via the mouth about 6 times a day. The latter also lessened the pain from my Dercum's Disease (painful lipomatosis) by about 80% and cleared my thinking. I also sleep well now, and not too long and breathe and move better/more easily.

Never keep undiluted h202 food grade in glass containers, it'll explode!! Plastic containers only!!

My question is, is it ok to nebulise 3% h202 while on oxycontin slow release pain killers? I tried it today and my lungs and nose feel a bit sore even when I reduced it to 1and 1/2%. Mind, I did smoke a cig 5mins later! I also have just had a full hip replacement, but not too concerned about that. My lungs feel a bit painful, has anyone else had this while nebulising, and is it maybe a possible Herxheimer reaction? Gratefull for n e help or comments thanks x

Posted by Bill (San Fernando, San Fernando, Philippines) on 04/10/2011

Hi Verna... The liver is perhaps the major culprit with allergies and in auto-immune diseases -- the liver should remove foreign protein bodies causing the allergic reactions, but when the liver becomes insufficient and cannot remove or neutralize or store these allergens, then it starts to produce larger amounts of histamines and histidines which causes all the inflammatory allergic problems. The lungs also have a special relationship with the liver, so that when you have a congested liver, your lungs are also usually weak. So here are some options.

Here is one successful testimony, with the cure, of a person(a doctor) who cured her own asthma allergy and serious arthritis problems with liver-detoxing herbs.

Notably, an insufficient liver causes 'dirty' blood because the liver cannot take out all the trash from the blood -- this can give rise to a whole host of other problems including weak immune system, allergies and arthritis. She tells the story of her own cure at this link here:

http://www.sensiblehealth.com/Journey-08.xhtml

Another protocol I recommend for both detoxing and repairing the liver is found here:

https://www.earthclinic.com/cures/allergies6.html#LIVER

Dr Gerson, from the famous Gerson Cancer Therapy said this about the use of larger dose lugol's iodine in his therapies.

"At the same time 5 times one grain of thyroid and 6 times three drops of lugol solution, ½ strength. That's 18 drops of lugol which is a large dose. Nobody was observed to develop heart palpitations from that, even if some patients told me that they could previously not take thyroid because they would develop heart palpitation. And all allergies disappeared! Some patients claimed that they could previously not take one teaspoonful of lemon juice or orange juice - they were allergic. But when they are well detoxified and have plenty of potassium, they are not allergic. Allergies and other hypersensitivities are eliminated."

In his research with The Iodine Project, Dr Flechas has found that supplementing larger dose iodine is very beneficial to the body regarding the following problems: fibrocystic breasts, hypothyroidism, ovarian cysts, attention-deficit disorder, pregnancy, IQ, senility, bromide, fluoride, obesity, depression, constipation, detoxing (from bromide, fluoride, arsenic, mercury, lead, aluminum), cancer (prostate, thyroid, breast), diabetes (blood sugar control), receptors (hormones, neurotransmitters), testosterone, itching, sweating, histidine and histamine[allergies], heart disease (especially arrhythmias, abnormal heart beats).

Dr Flechas makes the following points about iodine's effect on the body:

Recommended Iodine Protocol. 50 mg/day of iodine in the form of Lugol's or Iodoral. Plus 1500 mg, twice a day, of Vitamin C (ester C or buffered C). If high bromide, add one teaspoon per day of Celtic sea salt or Potassium chloride (KCl).

Getting Off Thyroid Hormones. First, start the iodine supplementation. Then, if there are symptoms of HYPERthyroidism (nervousness, insomnia, sweating in palms, oily skin), you can reduce the thyroid hormones in half. Do not reduce the thyroid hormones until symptoms of hyperthyroidism occur. They may occur 3 or 4 weeks after starting iodine supplementation, or 3 or 4 months later, or a year later. Or it may not occur at all.

Why may the iodine enable you to reduce your thyroid hormones? Iodine will increase the sensitivity of the thyroid RECEPTORS to the hormone. Thus, less thyroid hormone is needed.

Hormone Receptors and Iodine. All hormone receptors are dependent on iodine, which increases the sensitivity of the receptor to the hormone it is designed for. For example, it can increase the sensitivity of insulin receptors and thus help with diabetes. Similarly, it can increase the sensitivity of the receptors for neurotransmitters (e. G. , serotonin, dopamine, GABA) in the brain. Thus, depression may lift after taking iodine. It can also increase the sensitivity of receptors for testosterone and FSH/LH.

Thyroid Hormones and Iodine. If you take supplemental thyroid hormones, you inhibit the ability of the body to absorb iodine. That is why they recommend to patients about to received radioactive-iodine scans that they go off all thyroid hormones for two to three weeks prior to the scan. Women who take thyroid hormones have a much higher risk of breast cancer than other women.

Histidine and Histamine. Histidine is the precursor for histamine. Anti-histamines are used to control runny noses, hives, and itching. Iodine inhibits the conversion of histidine to histamine, thus reducing itching, hives, etc.

Iodine and Heavy Metals. When taking iodine, there is GREATLY increased excretion in the urine of arsenic, mercury, lead, aluminum, and other toxic metals. Iodine is selective in that it leaves the essential metals (e. G. , iron) and removes the toxic ones.

Iodine and Cancer. In many cancers, the mechanism for getting iodine into the cells (the NIS symporter) is not working. The cells can't absorb Iodine. Absence of iodine is a promoter of thyroid cancer, breast cancer, and ovarian cancer.

Bromide. Bromide builds up in the Central Nervous System and results in many problems. In the 1920s Bromo-Seltzer was a bromide-based medicine that used to be used for hangovers, calming the stomach, and headaches. It often resulted in acute paranoid psychosis with large doses. Today, beverages (Mountain Dew, Fresca, and citric Gatorade) contain bromide in the form of "brominated vegetable oil". It is used as an emulsifier in citrus-flavored soft drinks. The bromide functions as a CNS depressant and triggers a number of symptoms like paranoia. Bromide is also found in flour and bread. Brazil recently outlawed bromide in flour products.

When iodine gets into the cells, it kicks the bromide out. Bromide then increases in the blood stream and goes to the kidneys. Chloride pushes bromide into the urine, thus getting rid of it. That's why taking salt is helpful in moving bromide out of the body

Iodine in the Skin. 20% of the body iodine is in the skin. Iodine in the skin helps your body be able to sweat.

Iodine and Pregnancy. IQ is mostly set by the age of two. Adequate iodine during pregnancy and the first two years of life can increase IQ by 15 points. If there is low iodine but high fluoride, it can result in cretinism (severe mental retardation).

Iodine and Salt. 50% of American households are now using salt without iodine. Moreover, the AMA is going to recommend reducing salt consumption by 50% over the next 10 years. Iodine has been removed from bread and greatly reduced in milk. Fewer and fewer Americans are getting sufficient iodine. 25-30% of people over 60 who become senile are hypothyroid due to low iodine, often because of low salt prescribed for hypertension.

Iodine and the Breast. Iodine is very important to the breast. Iodine deficiency results in fibrocystic breasts, which can be cured with adequate iodine. If left without iodine, the fibrocystic breasts can develop breast cancer.

Iodine Sensitivity. If you can take iodized salt, you can take Lugol's or Iodoral. If iodized salt gives you hives, avoid iodine. Less than 1/2% of the population is iodine sensitive.

Iodine Loading Test. It is a good idea to take the Iodine Loading Test before supplementing with iodine. Then, repeat the test in about 3 or 4 months to be sure your body is absorbing the iodine appropriately. If it is not, your practitioner can help you make changes so that your body will absorb it.

Thundir from San Francisco are you still well? I am thinking of trying the 35% H202 myself. I was so excited to read your testimony. 15 years ago I had a similar experience like yours - the doctors told me I would have asthma for the rest of my life. I also refused to believe this and have been on a long journey searching for something to heal my body. I'm going to try it. Did you have any bad side effects? Thank you for sharing your story. I'm at the point where I'm thinking I might never find anything to help me. My life has changed so much since this all happened. Before I go to another doctor I plan to try this. Thanks again.

just a couple of observations: if you are having adverse reactions either

a)you are using it incorrectly with the wrong dilution ratio of h202 to water (probably the main cause)

b) have a sensitivity to it, just as some people take 500mg's of a pain killer whereas, others may only take 200mg's for the same effect. *****Theraputic doses can vary from person to person even with natural remedies*****.

Also, I smoked for many many years but have quit and now see the IRONY of being afraid to try BMIM while once upon a time I was a 2-pack-a-dayer (each and every cigarette containing over 4,000 deadly chemicals ugh! ). I think any of these remedies should be approached with research and starting small up to what works for you. God Bless!

Hi to all reading this Post. I got verry sick back in october of 2010. Turned out I had contracted an upper respiratory infection in my lungs. I was perscribed antibiotics at 1 pill a day for 10 days. I cant remember what type of Antibiotics. Anyway my Xray showed that the spot on my lung eventually cleared. I remained with heavy mucous and wheezing. Doctors gave me 2 different types of inhalers for the symptons and all kinds of over the counter and perscribed meds that didnt even do anything. I went back 8 to 9 times to complain of this condition. They said I was going to be Asthmatic for the rest of my life and that sometimes it comes late in our lives. I refused to believe this.

I accidently found this web site that talked about Inhaling Hydrogen Peroxide. As God is my Witness I was scared as hell to do this. I purchased everything I needed from Rainbows Supermarket here in San Francisco and began My therapy as perscribed. 11 ounces of distilled water with 1 ounce of h202 35% making it 3 % when combined together. Poured some in a spray bottle and began my Inhaling. 4 pumps of spray while inhaling 5 times a day. Also tried a little tad up my nose in case bugs were harboring there. 2 weeks Later cured. No more Inhalars no more over the counter meds. I also do a few drops of the 3% peroxide in 8 ounces of water. This stuffed cured me. I am Living proof. Best regards and wishes to all reading my Post...........

YES, I use peroxide in my vaporizer. It REALLY helps when your sick and if you smoke.

Always look for food grade hydrogen peroxide.

you must always use care when handling food grade hydrogen peroxide as it can burn your skin. Lastly, it must be diluted, using distilled water, to a minimum 3. 5% solution before it can be used for therapeutic purposes.

Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy through your Lungs

Vaporizer
Mix 16 oz (2 C) of 3. 5% diluted hydrogen peroxide solution with 128 oz (1 gallon) of water in a vaporizer. Use this mixture in your vaporizer nightly.

Nasal Spray
Mix 1 Tablespoon of 3. 5% diluted hydrogen peroxide solution with 8 oz (1 C) of distilled water for use as a nasal spray. Use 2-3 squirts of this nasal spray throughout the day when you start experiencing signs of congestion. Better yet, try it daily and see if it helps ward off congestion during the cold and flu season.

bill, I use h202 a couple of times a month to clear my lungs, I am 71 and smoke at least 2 packs of cigaettes a day I have found that h202 cleans out my lungs very well, also live in philippines and was asked to buy this guy some medicine, went to see him, he was about 50 years old, and doubt if he weighed 60 pounds, just skin and bones, he was on his knees next to bed and every time he took a breath he coughed, so he couldnt sleep or eat, looked like he was dying. I got him 3% peroxide and sprayer, he inhaled it and his cough was gone within 30 seconds that was 3 years ago he is ok now, but inhales a spray of h202 every night before he goes to bed, dont know what he had, but the hydrogen peroxide worked wonders.

I also give my 3 dogs a rinse with it to get rid of bugs, and it works great, { but the dogs hate it} they start scratching when the paraites start dying. It is a great mange cure. Thanks for the info on the h202, I really beleived it saved this guys life, and it has sure helped me also, thanks again

Very interested in what Shar from BC writes about lungs heating up (I also have this) and nebulizing. Am experimenting with H2O2 right now using mist spray in mouth but it's not doing the job - feel I need nebulizer to reverse it. Have lots of itching on chest and sometimes in head - ears feel a pressure from time to time- times fatigued - feel stuff is surfacing out of lung. Guess I would call this a chronic sinus/Lung infection. Andrea from Wales, can you also suggest how to proceed carefully - should I use 1 1/2% food grade. I am 73 and very sensitive to things, but want to take care of this without going to MD. Any tips or help will be immensely appreciated. My immense gratitude for this site and all the good people willing to share their expertise. Dee

I use half 3% hydrogen peroxide and half water via nebulizer and mask, when I feel a cold or sinus infection coming on, or if I have an ear ache, which can often lead to a cold, or vice versa.

The technique I use is to breath shallow through the mouth for half the time, and shallow through the nose the other half. Now it can be irritating to the nose, so just cut back on that if need be. And every now and then take normal deep breaths without the nebulizer. But inhale the nebulizer mist for a total of five minutes. Do this three to four times a day until the symptoms subside, for me this often occured after the first day.

I don't recommend taking deep breaths of the nebulized hydrogen peroxide, as it can be very irritating and cause bronchospasm, so asthmatics, try this remedy at your own risk. You must be well hydrated and have a good cough mechanism to do this remedy, because the bronchial mucosa will swell with phlegm, and you need to have a good cough mechanism. If your cough if weak, or if you're asthmatic, perhaps you can limit yourself to only inhaling lightly only through the nose and focus on the sinuses.

You may cough up a lot of phlegm, and if the sinuses are involved, mucus may literally start pouring out of you. The phlegm may be foamy in appearance, which shows the action of the hydrogen peroxide.

I first tried this about seven years ago, used it for maybe four cold and flu seasons, and haven't had a cold or flu since.

Also, at the first sign of an earache, I get in the shower and wash my ears and rinse, then I tilt my head and pour a bit of plain white vinegar in the ear, then I kind of tug the lobe to get the vinegar down in there, then I stand there for a minute, then I rinse the ear, tilting the head the other way to get the water out. Then I do the other ear just the same. I repeat this two or three times. Then I do the whole process two or three times a day, or until the symptoms subside, which is often in a day or two. I used to get ear infections all the time that required antibiotics, but since starting this method eight years ago, I haven't had an earache episode that required antibiotics.

I keep a bottle of white vinegar in the shower, often putting a bit of vinegar in the ears as a prophylactic. White vinegar is also an excellent aftershave if you get bumps and pimples like do, the from splashing it on is exquisite.

After finding the info on inhaling H2O2 (thank you Bill Munro! ) I want to add this to my daily regimen.

My first question may seem stupid but I would rather be sure.

Is it important to inhale on an empty stomach? as with H2O2 ingestion. The thing is when I inhale (have tried only once) Im sure that some 3% H2O2 gets swallowed even tho I spit it out, so could that mean no food in the stomach would be best?

The 3% H2O2 really fizzes in my mouth, reacting with my saliva I guess - should I spit this out or swallow it?

Thanking you in advance.

I will post updates as I see results

Hi, I read through the thread on HPI. I'm a student in complementary and alternative medicine and I'm really interested in trying this method for healing. I could not actually find the "food grade" I did find a bottle for 99 cents that says it's 3% first aid antiseptic/oral debriding agent and it does not state whether it has stabilizers in it. I would just like to make sure I purchased the right kind before attempting to use it.

Thank you so much!

The minute I feel a cold coming on or any kind of sinus problem I lay on one side, put a drop (little bit) in my ear and lay there for a few minutes, longer if lots of crackling. I do the other ear same way and I swear I have not had any head cold or sinus infection in 5 years. I also started using saline nose spray at the end of the night if I have gone out of the house ( grocery store, bingo, senior center, people places). I use it like a stream to cleanse, not just spray and I also gargle with warm salt water same thing at end of night before bed. I read somewhere or heard it that it takes germs 3 days to propagate in your nose or throat so if ya keep them washed away, well so far so good. They also say do not put peroxide in yur ear if you have ever had a ruptured eardrum and also don't irrigate your nose if you already are plugged up.

I have COPD and my breathing is not the best as of late, but not on oxygen yet. Chest seems tighter than usual. Would like to try the peroxide but am a little apprehensive about it because I use Spiriva, Albuterol and sometimes Flovent. Not sure if I should stop the inhalers first or for how long before trying. Also heard when you use vinegar ya want to rinse your mouth well because it eats away at teeth enamel. I also have osteoarthritis and osteoporosis so not sure how any of those things effect bones.

Hydrogen Peroxide inhalation for COPD

Hello, My name is Maggie and I live in Massachusetts. I am writing because I finally decided to take a chance on inhaling hydrogen peroxide for my COPD. I have been sick every Winter since I was 26 (16 years). I have tried diet change, steroids, antibiotics, supplements (with some success) and every other alternative offered to me. I have used your website for other ailments, but thought this was a little crazy. However, I have been using this method for 3 weeks and have NEVER felt this good in the Winter. I have also stopped using my rescue inhaler (down from 6-7 times a day) and am not taking any medications. I will be personally sending an email to Bill Munro, who is now my hero. Just when I finally began to accept that I was going to be another statistic (surviving as many Winters as I could handle until my disease did me in, as it did my father), a miracle falls into my lap! I will do this treatment for the rest of my life and I will recommend it to EVERYONE who ever complains to me of bronchitis, asthma, or any other form of COPD. I would be happy to talk to anyone who has questions or needs to speak to a real person. They can email me any time at [email protected]. Thank you Earth Clinic and thank you Bill Munroe for giving me a chance to live my life, instead of biding my time!!!

Taking at least 1,000 mg vitamin C (sodium ascorbate) may be able to protect this. H2O2 neutralizes vitamin C and a vitamin D deficiency can cause hair color loss.

Duke- I spend about 7 months a year in CR, I understand how difficult it can be to find what you are looking for. There are a few MacroBiotic retailers in San Jose that may be able to help with Natural Products. Perhaps a better option is 35% food grade H202 is also used for sprouting plants and can be used for swimming pool servicing. If I were you I would check out the viveros there- the plant nurseries. Where abouts do you live in CR? There are many of these viveros through out the country. Something else to consider is mould and the effects on your lungs... I know that it is a constant battle for me to keep the mould at bay where I live because it is humid and close to the ocean. Good Luck!

I am extremely tired and dizzy- I went to emergency room here and was diagnosed with lung infection and prescribed antibiotics( dont know the name of infection) however after reading this post I want to try adding 3% peroxide to C-Pap machine and I am starting to inhale 3% diluted- to spray bottle. The 1st night I tried inhaling- I couldn't get to sleep ( a very rare thing) so I thought it was working- I am currently inhaling 3% diluted- label says ( in spanish)3 grams hydrogen peroxide and vehiculo csp 100 ml- anyone have experience with adding to C-pap machine and anyone know where to buy more potent peroxide in CR?

Hi--
I'm sorry to hear that you are ill and hope that you find something that works for you. If you have not read about Lysine, I would certainly recommend reading into and trying it because it is cheap and effective for viruses. Supposedly, Bronchitis is caused by a viral illness something like 90% of the time, with the remaining 10% made up of bacterial infections. Lysine costs about $6, and though there are varying brands and thus varying levels of effectiveness, I've always found that I have responded no matter the type of brand-- though I do agree with a friend of mine that some brands are better than others (right now I'm favoring the Orange and purple major brand label but there are certainly others that are good. )

What I've found for my viral infections is to follow the 5 gram protocol of a gram of lysine taken with a gram of aspirin once an hour every hour for five hours straight. Then you take a couple grams of lysine twice a day to mop up the remaining crud. I just wrote about this a few days ago so I'm sorry for the double post, but last week my boyfriend started coming down with the symptoms that always preceded coming down with bronchitis. I flooded him with lysine, which at around 25-30 grams in a 24 hour period gave him diarrhea, but he was still happy with having diarrhea for a few days if it didn't mean having bronchitis for weeks to months! Anyway, check it out. Lysine hasn't had any contra-indications for me thus far with my supplements, but as always, do your research. I love lysine best as an anti-viral and find it cheaper than other options (like oil of oregano), less stinky (like garlic), and with no taste (I have a hard time getting coconut oil down. )
Good Luck!

I'm 39 yrs old, I'm a smoker for approx 20 yrs... Ive recently slowed to 1/2 a pk a day. Ive been having a slight shortness of breath for a couple of weeks.... I broke and dislocated my ankle in 1998, ever since then I've had a problem with water retention. Lately even with elevation and Apple Cider Vinegar (2 tsp in 16ozs of water) the swelling never goes down. I have a history of low blood pressure so I can't really take water pills. I recently became more short of breath (yesterday) went to the ER and was discharged with bronchitis, I was prescribed the Z pack antibiotics, alupent inhaler and 20gm of prednisone.... I took the Z pack, I couldn't afford the alupent and I I heard horror stories of prednisone.

I'm reading these different post and really considering the HP therapy but am afraid.. My bottle says nothing about "food grade formula"... It does say 3%, USP, inactive ingredient is purified water and also states it assist in the removal of phlegm, mucus or other secretions associated with sore mouth. I don't know if that is the right kind of HP I should be using in a nebulizer. I would feel better trying kelp as you have suggested... How do I buy it? in pill form? liquid form? how is it taken? how often? How soon will I feel a difference? any side effects? thanks

In my opinion, colloidal silver is toxic. Our bodies were never meant to have one mineral consumed in such huge quantities. Just like iodine, or any other mineral, if you use a single mineral in such large quantities, then you can expect to get sick eventually. It's always better to get your minerals from a food source in a balanced, complete form. Kelp is a much better way to gain health and keep it, and what's great about kelp is that it will never overdose you or allow you to get out of balance. It will always improve your health and never take away from it. When you take any mineral as a single source, the body has no choice but to absorb it, throwing it out of balance. When you get your minerals from a food source, then you receive all your minerals in a safe form that will allow your body to pick and choose which minerals it needs to absorb them easily. If your body is at a saturation point in a particular mineral then the body will just let that particular mineral go through the body easily. When you force your body to absorb and absorb and absorb a particular mineral then the body eventually will get out of wack and you will be sick, guaranteed.

I suggest you try kelp and another great source of minerals without the iodine is Redstar flake yeast. Both of these sources are amazing and will only add to your health, and never take away from it. Laminaria digitata is an excellent form of kelp that I take daily and you can take a cup a day, even more and never get an overdose. I always buy in bulk as it saves a lot of money and then I never worry about using the product. Good luck. Sue

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

WARNING!

I totally agree. I tried inhaling colloidal silver several times for asthma relief and each time was a nightmare. The last time was particularly scary because it brought on the worst asthma attack I have ever had... Infact I almost passed out due to lack of oxygen. Although colloidal silver is a great anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-viral great caution should be used if you decide to inhale it.


Where to Find Nasal Pumps
Posted by Ron (Great Falls, Mt) on 11/04/2010

People that are using the nasal pump method - I would suggest to ask your doctor (or pharmacist) for a 'spacer' this is a plastic cylinder that one typically attaches a portable inhaler to. But for this purpose, you would spray the mist into the cylinder, then inhale the mist. The whole idea being that with the spacer, more of the mist will travel down into your lungs, rather than collect at the back of your throat. In Lieu of using a spacer, you could hold the sprayer *away* from your face and pump a few times into the open air, and then breath in (through your mouth) from the cloud-mist that you just sprayed. Just a thought. I've had many a nurse or technician say (for using an inhaler) that you *are not* supposed to put it directly in your mouth, exactly because the medicine ends up coating the back of your throat, instead of going into your lungs where it is intended.

For years and years every cold I got fell into my chest and I often ended up with broncitis several times a year. I have been nebulizing h2o2 for the past 4 years as soon as I feel a sore throat and haven't had the stuff get into my lungs yet. I gave a friend a nebulizer who suffered worse than me from things getting into her chest and she was reluctant to try it until it had started in her chest--she called back 2 days later to say the h2o2 had stopped the cold in its tracks---it is very important to spray early and often when you first feel an onset. 4 or5 breaths at a time 4 or 5 times a day usually does it.

The simplest way to make a 3% is use, 1 cup 35% to 11 cups of distilled water. That is 1 part 35 percent to ll parts water in any measurement will make 3 percent it is a ratio. Just make sure the water and peroxide are measured in same size container.
