RE Bill Munro's Inhalation of H202.. this is going to be used mainly to hopefully reduce, kill off, a large tumor, any breathing / lungs would be secondary.

I have reduced 35% to the 3% H202 as recommended, but am not sure if I got it right? As there be a fair bit of "foaming" in the mouth, after pumping several times when inhaling the 3% H202 we only experienced this when doing the One Minute Cure protocol when one increases the drops every day to 25 and then goes backwards! .. But was not expecting this foaming with 3% H202, and yes it is Food grade diluted. Thanks for your thoughts!

EC: Hi Jen,

Yes, there is typically foaming from the leftover 3% peroxide, and should be spat out. I mentioned this in EC's peroxide inhalation YouTube instructional video from 2014. Deirdre

I've experienced some foaming too when using Bill Munro's Inhalation Therapy. I started using it a year ago next month when I caught covid. I had a bad hacking chest cough (just talking would bring it on) and knew I had to get it under control as I refused to go to a hospital to be put on a ventilator. I started the 3% HP in a nasal pump and inhaled it approximately 5 to 7 pumps initially 4 to 5 times a day. There was foaming which didn't bother me as I would just spit out. Within 2 days I was no longer waking up at night coughing or coughing during the day. Was able to enjoy Christmas with no cough. I still use it 2x daily and I cannot believe what a miracle it has been for me.

I too have had coldsores all my life and am 50 yrs old now. I had a sore in the inside of my nose for 3 days , first I dapped peroxide.3% on the outside and the inside where I felt it sore and there was no change into the 3rd day. On the 3rd day I inhaled 3 or 4 puffs of a mix of half water and half .3% peroxide cheap Wal -Mart kind, from a 2 oz spray bottle that you can buy at Wal Mart for .50 in the toothpaste aisle where they have travel size items, and 2 hours later all the nose pain was GONE and no longer had a sore in my nose , it vanished. I also used Apple cider Vinegar the off brand at Wal- Mart GV . It's such a great value too, only $2.99 and I take the pinch or 1/4th tsp of Baking Soda and 2 TBLS of APPLE CIDER VINEGAR in 4 oz of COLD WATER and it has lowered my heartrate from 117 to 72.This has also lowered my BLOOD PRESSURE from to 112/60 I feel full of energy and I do this before I eat first thing in the morning and last thing at night. I sometimes take it at NOON for a pick me up. I no longer have acid reflux/ GERD. I sleep and breathe better as I have sleep apnea.

I have been using this method with a nebulizer for years. I inhale several times, 2-3 times per day. I used to get the flu twice a year, every year. Since I started H2O2 therapy I have not had even a cold or sniffle in the last 10 years! Could not worry less about Covid.

I have also used it more intensively to help with detoxing (longer sessions 4 times a day), and on the 2nd or 3rd day experienced an intense Herxheimer reaction immediately after, which proved beyond a doubt the effectiveness of this therapy.

Deirdre,

Your video on the HP inhalation technique from about 6 years ago has saved me from a huge amount of suffering due to my history with cold viruses. For 30 years I was looking for a way to deal with my colds that would sometimes last well over a month.... I tried tons of vit C, zinc...but nothing worked... I tried HP also, but was doing it wrong and almost gave up. Then I realized I need to start a rigorous infusion of HP immediately upon a tickle in my throat or any symptom that could be a cold. Over the last 6 years, I have killed scores and scores of cold viruses that would have put me down for months. A few times I got fooled, however, and misread a symptom and it was a day or two into the virus before I started. But usually, I kill it dead within the first 2 to 5 days.

My method is more aggressive upon first thinking I got a virus. I have no mercy on these viruses. Upon the first sign, I first do my inhaling method as you showed every 2-3 hours. To kick off the method, I also spray HP in each ear while laying down. I let it bubble in there at least 10-15 min per side. Then, I mix 8 parts water with 2 parts HR in a cup and snort up my nose. The nose membrane is very sensitive so you can not use the strong 3% otherwise it could start bleeding. I learned this from experience. This three-fold method seems to kill everything if I caught it on time.

I have a question….

When you or Bill M talk about inhaling every 3-4 hours, are you including throughout the night? Because I am afraid the virus might grow during the night, I set my alarm and wake up and do it 1 or 2 times during the night if a cold is coming on. What is your experience?

Hi Tony,

Thanks for your post about H202 inhalation and other methods to kill viruses.

No, I never woke up in the middle of the night to inhale peroxide. I don't think Bill Munro did either. From the various conversations I had with him over the years before he died, he never mentioned it.

I haven't done peroxide inhalation in a few years now because BHT has proven to be a more effective remedy for me. 100% success rate in the past 3-4 years. You can read my posts on the BHT page of Earth Clinic and watch the two videos on the EC YouTube channel that I made about BHT.

The peroxide inhalation didn't always work, so I was glad to find another remedy that did!

Good luck. Hope you kick this new bug fast!

Total H202 Routine:

I have used the H202 inhalation method for years and it has been very effective for colds or other sinus infections. Once I notice a cold coming on at Day 1, I do the Munro throat spray routine at 3%, for about 3x's. Then I move on to a mix of 1.5% H202 in the nasal sprayer (3% is too much for your nasal linings), then I do a routine of H202 in my ears for 4 min each ear then dry them out with kleenex & cotton swabs and finally after all this drains into your mouth I gargle for a minute with H202.

IF I do this on Day 1 I have never had to go to Day 2 of this routine - never in 10 years of use. This is why people go to Ear, Nose & Throat doctors - these are ALL inter-related. You need to fix them all. Hope this helps.

Rick,

i just read your post about your HP method. This is the exact same 3-fold method I use... my post is above yours. yes, if you do all three it pretty much kills it, but sometimes I get fooled...like now.... Sometime I had some funny nasal thing that I thought from the car vent blowing on my face and created a little stuffing up.... BUT, it was actually a cold virus I picked up about 8 days ago.... so, it took me until about day 2 to realize I got fooled so I started the 3-fold method. but as you know, the longer you wait the worse are you chances to killing it in a short time. Anyway, after day 4 I felt it worked and I was all clear, and slowed down the HP.... that was a mistake and that night it came back stronger... So, I've been inhaling every 3-4 hours since Tue and no change. My cold is stable/the same for 5 days, not getting better or worse; so today I'm inhaling every 2 hours to see if stepping up the HP will kick this cold into termination phase. Any suggestions? TF

I discovered hydrogen peroxide inhalation last year when I was sick with a virus for 2 months and looking for a cure to my extreme fatigue. I was skeptical about the remedy but desperate for more energy. I inhaled up to 8 times a day for about a week and was cured.

Yesterday, I started to come down with a nasty virus that has been going around. After class I went back to my room and inhaled 3% hydrogen peroxide (not food grade, but a cheap drugstore brand): 10 sprays to the back of my throat. I did this every 3 to 4 hours until midnight. The virus symptoms dissipated within the first hour and had disappeared after 12 hours. I am continuing to inhale every 8 hours just to make sure it is gone. This remedy is an effective cure for viruses.

I'm starting the inhaling method of H202 and would like to know if I need to follow the same guidelines as if I was drinking it with distilled water. Do I need to inhale 1 hour before I eat and 3 hours after? Also, is it necessary to avoiding inhaling H202 too close to taking supplements and medication? Is 3% necessary for it to work? Can anyone answer these questions? Thanks.

For the posts about colds/flu working, I have not experienced anything positive from this. I did the emptying out of the nasal spray inhalation method. As soon as I started to feel the throat itching and the nose getting stuffy, I started. First day I did it four times with around four to five sprays each time. All that happened with myself is that I got more sick as you would expect with a cold. The only difference was the my lungs are achy now and I had the nastiest taste in my mouth. Just to see if there has been any benefit, I continued in the morning (after having a fever all night). Still no change. The only thing that has help thus far has been the cold medicine I finally taken. Wish I could say different, but so far, the cold seems to be running a normal course with no benefit of peroxide inhalation.

i had the exact outcome as you. however, instead of giving up, i continued and am all the better for having done so. i went to urgent care twice and was diagnosed with acute bronchitis. i was given steroids, antibiotics, cough medicine and an inhaler both times and nothing worked. i decided to come here because i've had much success with turmeric on boils. i was, at that time, close to ruining my lungs completely as i coughed chronically with mucus filling my lungs but not coming out. i was also in extreme pain in my trunk area and lungs. the bottom line was when i researched my condition and found out that i actually have COPD because of the new symptoms of my feet and wrists swelling and massive water retention.

i saw this section and immediately sent for a dollar-store spray bottle, for we are currently vacationing and i needed something immediately. i had regular 3% peroxide from the dollar store and did not dilute it. i started inhaling as directed and immediately began to cough more and felt like i had the flu. i thought i was dying. the following morning, my coughs became productive and scary. i started with massive amounts of yellow phlem, then it changed to bloody, then yellow, green, yellow, cloudy, then clear, which is where i am today. i have spells of coughing when i feel the tickle at the back of my throat and it doesn't cease completely until i have coughed up the major portion of phlem. i am no longer panting from simply putting on my clothes and i can sleep. i am not in shape to go out in public just yet as i have no idea when i will start the coughing session. however, i am ten thousand percent better and i know this would not have been possible had i not come to this site.

i do have a question: WILL THE EXPELLING EVER CEASE COMPLETELY OR IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO TO DECREASE MY RECOVERY TIME? i have been inhaling cinnamon and clove oil with steam, but i can only do that while not out. i am missing being active...

Update: My coughing has been lessening but tends to bother me at the most inopportune time such as in the middle of the night. Two nights ago, I decided to use the steam/cinnamon oil/clove oil mixture to inhale given that I read it would kill any budding virus (I wanted to halt any virus just in case something was starting up again causing my coughing to not dissipate). Success! I was able to sleep hours and if there was any coughing, it was not as intense and very productive with no color or cloudiness in the phlegm. Mind you, my entire head has been swollen and my eyes had the appearance of protrusion because of the strain of coughing. Currently, my face has gone down and my coughing spells have been reduced about 50-75% with the time of the spells being reduced 90%. I went out for the very first time in weeks to a state fair. The first night I had to hide and cough about twice. The second night, my 2-3 coughing bouts did not alert anyone. I'm still a bit embarassed to go to a restaurant or movie theatre, but I am not as breathless as before from any activity. I definitely do not have to use my inhaler. THANKS EARTHCLINIC AND BILL MUNROE!!!

update:this morning - no coughing...yet!!!! Clearing throat to clear any phlegm coming up in small amounts and blowing nose periodically. Other than that, I am going to go to a restaurant for the first time in weeks to eat breakfast. I am breathing quietly - I don't hear congestion.

Hello everyone! I am just 1 day old using the hydrogen peroxide inhalation for my allergic rhinitis that triggers an asthma attack, but mine is not I would say, pure hydrogen peroxide as it is already mixed with a sterile water for injection. I bought this mixture from a friend who said she and her mother who suffers asthma bought this from a nurse who does detox, etc. and prepares the mixture hersef and use it for better breathing and to cough up phlygm. it is not really that expensive, just 300 pesos/btl. And I put it in my nebulizer( the one I use for inhaling my ventolin 2.5 nebule) she said it is food grade 3%hydrogen peroxide mixed in sterile water used for injections. I could see frm label too.

I started using it yesterday when I started having very sore throat and became bad dry cough.put 5 ml of the mixture into the base connecting the mouthpiece and turned on the machine.At the first contact of my throat with the mixture I felt like suffocating but slowly it eased up. I have to stop once in a while as I felt like coughing and my throat became so dry that I felt it became more sore. After more or less 30 min. I felt mucus coming up and had to cough up very yellow phlygm. This lasted for almost an hour. I tried it again before I slept. I believe I was able to sleep but I felt weak and when I got up felt again the sore throat and dry cough so I nebulized again. Now, I am observing myself for any reaction as I know the method I used is different from most of you. Am I using the correct method for asthma/dry cough, allergic rhinitis? I am very skeptical at first but had to try to feel better and regain my life. Any comment, answer is truly appreciated.thank you,

Estrella

p.s. I also have severe GERD( gastro esophageal reflux disease) which triggers an asthma attack and was diagnosed in 2015 for pulmonary fibrosis. I am 65 yrs old and still long to have a longer life to be able to enjoy my grandchildren...

I would try turmeric. It seems to help support many different organs in the body. I started using it and it seems to help my lungs and the memory. Get a good organic turmeric and use black pepper. Put it in some warm water drink down. They also say fat helps into the system. 1/2 t turmeric 1/4t pepper. Use it on your food also. Best to you God Bless

Maybe you didn't do enough. t started with my sinus hurting and knew it was going to get bad. So I immediately did the inhalation. I think I overdid it 15xs on 1st day w/10-15, spray each X but nothing bad happened except my throat hurt a bit which drinking Aloe Vera fixed. The inhalation stop the sinus head congestion, coughing but I still felt overall malaise. 2nd day same. I almost thought the malaise was a tradeoff but then I realized that's how bad the virus was and I would've felt that bad with the sinus head congestion n coughing. Day 3 feelin better. Came in waves. feelin good 2 bad, bck n forth. By night I was good 2 go, back to norm...hurrah. Thank you much. You may have saved my life. I'm goin to try to get Covid19 tested to see if it was the virus. I TG 4 this site.

I got to work today and everyone is sick. Half way through the day I started feeling my throat get scratch and my nose starting to plug up. Just went and got some nasal spray and 3% peroxide. Dumped out the nasal spray, washed it, and filled with the peroxide. Just did five pumps in one big inhale. Will let you know if it works for me. Also, my father just got diagnosed with Pulmonary Fibrosis and is on 24 hour oxygen. Pretty much said he only has a few years with us. I see this has worked for many things. Anyone ever heard of someone trying a peroxide method for this??

I also have pulmonary fibrosis and have been looking into holistic methods of treatment. I just started the peroxide treatment yesterday so I can't give you any results yet but I am taking large doses of Serrapeptase that will breakdown the scar tissue in the lungs. I also nebulize a product called MMS that you can purchase on e-bay.

The serrapeptase info can be found at (http://www.biomediclabs.com/pulmonary_fibrosis) I have used both since I was diagnosed with Mantle Cell Lymphoma and pulmonary fibrosis 2 years ago. The cancer was in remission in 2 months and my lungs are getting better. I also had blood clots in my lungs as well as a Pseudomonas Aeruginosa infection. Both are under control now. There is hope for your father. I will let you know how the peroxide works.

I have gone through so much pain and suffering that no one should ever have to endure over the past year. I had a virus in me for over a year and they did not know what it was. They thought it was pure anxiety/depression/adhd, so I was constantly changed on medications. It finally got to the point where I could not live in this much physical pain on a daily basis. I'm only 22 and I felt like I was 90 with cancer. My hearing was decreasing, I was having trouble breathing, my face hurt all the time, coughing up mucus constantly, etc. I somehow saw hydrogen peroxide in my bathroom cabinet and remembered hearing it was used to treat viruses. I followed your steps and just figured what the hell. IT WORKED. I started coughing up all the horrible things inside my chest, my nose was running (in a good way), I could HEAR NORMALLY again, and all that pain that had been continuous in my body was GONE. I am not lying whatsoever. I will take this consistently for the rest of my life, the benefits in quality of life are undeniable.

EC: Thanks for the great feedback. We're guessing you are referring to the hydrogen peroxide inhalation method? If so, can you let us know more details (ie, how often)? Thanks.

Hydrogen peroxide inhalation

I tried Mr. Munro's technique after 6 days of chest and head congestion. I don't get sick very often, I do smoke regularly and when I do get sick it almost always goes to my chest because of the smoking I am sure. The H2O2 inhalation was a last ditch effort to clear up the longest flu-like sickness I have ever had! Fortunately, I do feel much better after only one day. I am not completely "healed", but my lungs can breath deeper, and I can cough up what was so thick in the lungs before. I am going to continue to use the technique for a few more days and see what happens. I must admit, I am not doing the same amount that Mr. Munro suggests, but I am inhaling the 3% stuff from the drugstore and about 4 inhales each time, about 4 times yesterday and twice already this morning (been up for about 4 hours). Still coughing, but doesn't hurt and stuff just comes right out! Thanks for the help and I am so greatful for old farmboys like Mr. Munro!

Wow, I can't believe how effective the hydrogen peroxide has been on killing whatever virus I had. I have had a really, really bad cold which went into my lungs and caused breathing problems (I have a little asthma) for almost two weeks. I also had the sore throat and cough - used the cayenne last week and within a day or two that was totally gone. But I was still miserable with the congestion and labored breathing. Read about the hydrogen peroxide inhalation therapy. So this morning I went out and bought the nasal sprayer, and 3% HP, and gave it a go. I did a few squirts as I breathed in once. Couldn't tell much at first, but slowly I noticed the congestion leaving and feeling more and more energetic. I did another round a few hours ago, and tonight I am breathing normal, very very little congestion, and I feel full of energy and life! I am having trouble falling asleep, too much energy, but I'm sure not complaining about that. Oh, I forgot to mention, I took a HP bath too, just poured one of those small 15 oz. bottles into the bath water and stayed in there for 45 minutes. All the warnings on other sites did scare me I have to admit, so I'm still not sure if I am brave enough to make this a regular practice, but to oust a bad cold or flu I will do it in a heartbeat again!!! Thank you Earth Clinic.

My husband started feeling symptoms of the flu on Friday, but I didn't feel them until Monday. I started inhaling 3% peroxide to the back of my throat and into my lungs following Bill Munro's instructions right away. I felt immediately better (literally, 5 minutes later) but 20 minutes later I felt the virus returning to my head. Instead of waiting the 2-3 hours for the inhalation like the instructions state, I decided to inhale again. Again my symptoms disappeared almost immediately. I kept inhaling every time I felt the symptoms returning and by midnight, I didn't have any more symptoms. I went to sleep, symptom free and did the peroxide again this morning, after an 8 hour break and will continue to inhale every 2-3 hours now. I am not 100% (mild congestion) but am doing sooo much better than my husband who is still miserable with congestion.

I am coming to the conclusion that the key to this inhalation method is starting it as soon as you feel the symptoms and then continuing it for a day or two. Don't stop doing it even if you feel better! I also think that inhaling every few hours is not enough if you have a bad strain of the virus. Inhaling every time I feel symptoms returning has been the key to kicking this virus. No doubt I will be able to test my findings again this winter, but hopefully not with the swine flu.

Good luck everyone. We need to be prepared for a bad swine flu season!

I did some experimenting on my own after reading numerous articles on H2O2 inhalation methods. I contracted some kind of virus that affected my lungs..with coughing spasms. I filled my cool mist humidifier with 1 gallon of reverse osmosis water and 2 ozs 35% food grade H2O2 and slept with this on thru the night for several nights. First thing I noticed, was that I was able to breathe considerably better with less coughing. This is strictly my own concoction..I was desparate, as conventional medicine was not doing anything for me. Thought I would pass this remedy on......
