Just for readers information. I read "flood your body with oxygen" and became interested in H2O2. I was going to try the drinking it process but I mentioned to someone who had done much more research and he mentioned that there is truth in the experiences of those who ingest it, in that reoccurrences of former symptoms happen. He suggested that starting by merely spreading the HP on skin surface is a better way to start. I tried that one night and was unable to sleep for hours and hours. I don't recommend trying it in the evening for that reason. I have been utilizing Bill Munro's inhalation method for about 6 months now. I have mild intermittent asthma. I was using Advair, Singular and nebulizer with Albuterol. Now only use the Albuterol. Would give that up too but my spouse doesn't know of my inhalation regimen. She does not believe in anything that is not doctor recommended. In order to keep peace in the house I sneakily remain quiet. My breathing is noticeably better and I have had no colds or flu symptoms since doing the inhalation method. I did have a recurrence of a boil on my nether cheek which I hadn't had for 6 months or so before starting inhalation. I have had no negative reactions. I purchased 8% food grade and diluted it 2 parts distilled water to l part HP. That was the instruction on bottle. I am only doing it once a day as everything seems to be ok and my purpose is as a preventative. I purchased 32% FG about a year ago but was so alarmed over warnings about handling it that I went to the 8%. I use a glass pyrex measuring cup to mix it. To find a health store that sold FG, I just googled FG HP (abbreviations spelle out on google) and found stores in my area. Southern California. I bought from Great Earth.
Would like to recommend to other members of my family but wife's reaction might lead to an unsought psychological hold on me. There are lots of people out there who only rely on allopathic doctors who know no other treatments and who would be defrocked if they used or advocated any treatment other than allopathic. Hope this is of some value to readers of this site.

What about using mineral water instead of distilled water to dilute stabilizer- free 3% hydrogen peroxide?

I read a lot of comments about h202 and all that worked were used the way they were suposed to be used , I am 78 years young { and I act it ] I started taking h2o2 last week 1oz h2o2 to 12oz of distilled water [not tap water] I am now taking 10 oz of h2o2 to 12 oz of distilled water , I did not feel bad to start with and I don't feel bad now but if it keeps all the bad stuff away from me like its suposed then I should live forever , which I had planed on doing anyway.

Dechlorinating Water
Posted by Marla (Atlanta, Georgia, Usa) on 02/25/2011

We all know that chlorine is in most tap water, and that it's not good for us. Furthermore, when chlorine meets water or H2O2, it generates chlorine gas, which is deadly and was used as a chemical weapon by the Germans in World War I (this is the awful smell you get when cleaning with bleach water and why you should use it in well-ventilated areas
emedicine.medscape.com/article/820779-overview). Because of this, it is not safe to add hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to chlorinated tap water and drink it right down for your oxygen therapy.
However, if your water ph is 7.0 or higher, H2O2 can be used to dechlorinate the water first, allow the chlorine gas to escape (www.h2o2.com/industrial/applications.aspx?pid=107&name=Dechlorination), and then the water will be safe to use for oxygen/hydrogen peroxide therapy.
Further, it only takes a single drop per gallon to dechlorinate most drinking water. (See below for math ) I have not been able to discover the time necessary for the chlorine to be fully liberated, so to be safe, I would agitate the water periodically and not use it for 24 hours or so.
How I calculated 1 drop per gallon:
1.8mg/l Cl common post-treatment level (check with your water provider for specifics)
100000 gal H2Orequires 0.2 gal 50% H202 to dechlorinate (www.h2o2.com/Calculator.aspx)
There are 90840 drops in a gallon
0.2 gal = 18168 drops 50% H2O2 to treat 100000 gal H2O with Cl
Moving the decimal gets us 1.8168 drops for 10.0000 gal
3% H2O2 is 16.666% strength of 50% H2O2, so 3% hydrogen peroxide requires 6x amount of 50%
10.9008 drops for 10 gal = 1 drop per gallon
Simple and cheap to dechlorinate your tap water at home!

Hello everyone,
First off, I've done much research on HP injestion. 35% diluted. I will definetly be starting the therapy myself soon. I would also like others to try it as well. I have 2 questions:
1. My grandmother suffers from arthritis. She also has a hip replacment and I know that any foreing organs in a body will be attacked. Even though it is a hip replacement, will it still be attacked?
2. I have a relative that had been in a car crash that damaged the left side of her brain. She suffers from dementia that will soon turn into altziemers. Can it help her too?
thanks!

Please tell me whether a Nuvaring contraceptive is adversely affected by a 3% hydrogen peroxide douche. My daughter had been suffering from BV; I checked your site, suggested the hydrogen peroxide douche full strength for 3 minutes for one week. She followed it for the past two days, delighted that the smell and other symptoms are gone. She is going on Winter break to visit her LDR bf for a week. It suddenly struck me that she may have compromised the safety of her contraceptive method by following my advise. Before telling her anything, I called the company. They said to contact her OB/GYN doctor, who didn't know and recommended using an alternative method (condoms, etc. ). I have read that spermicide contains hydrogen peroxide, but don't know what strength, and if 3% is really damaging. I don't want to alarm her and create a problem for their quality time. Yet, if there is a strong chance that the hydrogen peroxide has killed the Nuvaring chemicals, then its best to tell her ASAP. Before doing so, I thought I better check with the pros on here. Thank you for any advice. PS... the Nuvaring is suppose to act like a birth control pill (throughout her system) yet its locally placed in the vagina like a diaphragm.

Ben, I was on H2o2, 35% food grade for 4 months and I stopped it. I was taking 3-4 drops in the morning only as my lifestyle did not allow me to take drops during the day.
I started off well but in the 4 month, I became very ill. It started with a runny nose, congestion and then this cough. I was virtually coughing ever minute, phlegm production, wheezing, etc. The dr told me my lungs are congested and he could hear crackles. I was bed ridden for 2 weeks. It has taken me 8 weeks and the coughing has just stopped now, I still produce a bit of phlegm but my voice is now hoarse.
I stopped the H2O2 as soon as I became sick. I was worried the hydrogen caused me to become sick. This could have been part of the detoxing process but I had to stop taking H2O2 as I would get worse by taking it.
I am starting to get better but definitely not 100% yet.
Through my research I have now started taking Herb Robert which help with providing more oxygen in the body.

★★★☆☆BETTER BUT WITH SIDE EFFECTS
I have been struggling with various health issues for a decade now. My white blood cell count has been high for that entire period. Western medicine has failed me completely - the doctors/specialist have no idea whats causing my troubles.
I believe it is a candida problem.
I am desperate so I tried first the H2O2 inhalation method for a few months - amazing results. Much better quality of sleep. Increased energy. Faster reflexes. Happy mood.
I did develop a rather painfull cough during this treatment but I believe thats simply a moron problem. (I still smoke)
Next I moved on the H2O2 internal use therapy. This has been an extremely hard road. I took me almost 3 months to get up to 25 drops. I had to take it slowly due to side effects. (nothing too bad though - I was able to work the entire period)
Once I hit 25 drops 3 times a day all hell broke loose.
I should point out at this point my taking the dose 3 times a day became patchy, sometimes I could only make myself do it twice a day.
First off I got an extremely nasty rash all over my neck (both sides) and one side of my face. These rashes had pimple like heads that would break and become infected. At one point for about 3 days I couldn't even turn my neck - it was that swallen. I ended up treating this with DermAid (a hydrocortisone 0. 5% cream) It was almost 2 weeks before I could shave again. (and even then it was not a good experience)
Once the rash was under control I managed to get the dose back up to 25 drops x 3 times a day. At this point during the treatment whenever I took at dose I would go to sleep within about 45mins for 2-3 hours. The rash issue was ongoing but never severe. My toilet experience was all over the place. I developed a severe brain fog. I had both kidney and liver pain. (some days unable to stable upright) I could no longer continue the treatment and work. Life being what it is I had to take breaks from the treatment whenever any mission critical work came up that I could not put off. I did power on with the treatment. (by this point I had decided I would continue with treatment no matter what - like I said I am desperate for a fix)
I have been able to take an entire week off work now and manged to dose myself properly (25drops x 3 times a day) for 5 days. By the 5th day I feared for my life. (it is day 7 of this period now)
I developed flu like symptoms. I grew a pimple like sore on my face which has burst and has been pumping out crazy amounts of puss. (on my chin) When it was at it's peak it felt like I needed root canels on half my teeth! The swelling was substantial. I started developing a boil on my butt.
Any cut no matter how small gets massively infected. I somehow nicked myself while sleeping one night. (an extremely small scratch - maybe 2mm) That turned into my finger swelling right up within a few hours. Funnily enough I treat these infections with 3% h2o2 - works a charm. (I have had several now) Both my nostrals grew zits inside them which have become infected. trust me when I tell you - this drives you nuts especially with the flu like symptoms.
Being the sucker for punishment that I am I decided to go see my GP and tell him what I was doing to see what his opinion was. What a waste of time. I was told western medicine does not believe it any form of detox and that all my problems are psychosomatic. He then proceeded to give me a depression test which actually showed I am quite positive person these days. (I was not before I alkalised my body but thats another story)
I believe the cause of my suffering is candida toxins/poisons flooding my system as they die.
I remain confident that h2o2 will change my life - regardless of the extreme side effects I have suffered.
The purpose behind this post is 2 things -
1> I want to do my bit in making sure that people out there considering h2o2 treatment realise how rough it can be. *** please note I have not described all side effects just the worst in my experience.
2> I am hoping someone who has completed the h2o2 internal therapy with similar problems might consider contacting me and telling me its been worth it for them
If anyone has any questions, ideas, thoughts (good or bad) please feel free to message me. Due to size of post concerns I have left quite a bit out of this.
I will post again once I have finished the therapy.

This Hydrogen Peroxide thing has got me really confused. What is the shelf life of this product without stabilisers? I am told less than a month. If this is so you need to obtain it freshly made and in small quantities from a local lab. With the mail as slow as it is here...! Impossible to have. I have not been feeling great and tried Bill Munroe's inhalation technique. I can't say it did anything for me and absolutely no sensation in the mouth so I'm wondering if it is out of date even with a stabiliser( Coopers). Maybe I should set up a lab! Lugol's solution also is active for almost exactly one month so no use stocking up on that for the next nuclear accident!

I agree with mink, you must dilute 35% to 3% and by the time you add more distilled water the concentration is about 0.5% which is what was used to kill cancers in rats in 1950.

I was told that the chlorine in our water supply neutralizes the effect of hydrogen peroxide.... For example, if I added some (peroxide) to a tub of water for bathing, the peroxide benefit would be lost because of the chlorine in the water. Is this correct?

My best friends husband has appendoceal cancer that has spread throughout is abdomen. He is soooo sick. Currently he cannot take anything by mouth because of the blockages. He is at the ctc in tulsa, OK. They are treating him with chemo, lazer surgery's, etc. They are very good to him, but as most of us know, chemo only cures 2% of all cancer. I was wondering if there might be a good way to help him with this without taking it orally, realizing that the ctc is probably not going to give it IV?

Hi Bob, Have found some reports about a study that was led by a team from the
University of California although the reports are all only second hand. In this study they took some lung cells and exposed them to cigarette smoke, H2O2 and other oxidants. They found
Cells exposed to cigarette smoke or hydrogen peroxide had the same molecular pathways of cancer, while the non-exposed cells did not. None of these reports said H2O2 has the same chemicals as cigarettes. The reports also have no info on what percentage the H2O2 was that was used in the study.
It has always been my understanding that when using any H2O2 therapy you need to take extra antioxidants. Maybe someone has some info on this.

By accident I put a couple of drops of the 29% H202 in my ear (forgot I had to dilute it down). My ear was fizzing and bubbling. It's been about 40 minutes the fizzing has just stopped but I'm not sure if my ear feels funny. Am I ok? Did I do something seriously wrong? Now, I see on this site they say to dilute it for putting in ears. Thank you for your help! Lisa

Hi! Recently, I commenced a "get healthy" program that includes exercise, drinking diluted H2O2 (food grade) and apple cidar vinegar/honey (both raw). I must say, I've noticed some pleasant changes with my body already. However, I'm a little concerned since the hubby and I are trying to get pregnant and if I should become so, I'm wondering if it's safe to continue the program throughout the pregnancy. I'm not worried about the exercise (I watch my heart rate) or the cider/honey combo but I am a little apprehensive about the H2O2. According to my logic, it's perfectly safe and the extra oxygen might even be beneficial to a baby but logic isn't always reality :O) Can you tell me if you know of any women who carried successfully while on an h2o2 program? Thanks so much!

Mind you I did lots of research and purchased about 6 different books and read everything I can about this stuff before I started taking it.. I was taking 3 drops of 35% food grade HP in 180ml of water once a day... In the morning... So I did definitely did not overdose on the stuff... After everything I have read and trialled the stuff for 4 months... I don't know if it actually provides and benefits.... mind you I have a friend of mine who has been taking it for the last 9 months and thinks its the best thing....

★★★☆☆WORKED TEMPORARILY
Hi all
I started using H2o2 about 5 months ago and within 3 weeks I had felt the best I had in 10 years.
I had so much more energy, mental sharpness and much less joint pain. This continued for about 3 months. However I started to go backwards and in the last 6-8 weeks I feel I have gone back to where I was. Part of it may be the fact that I was doing much more work and proably pushed myself a bit. I have been on a dose of between 7 and 15 drops 3 x a day.
Can anyone provide any suggestions or reasons why I may have regressed as I was feeling absolutly amazing and want to get back to where I was.
Thanks

I started using H2O2 as an oral rinse. Soon afterwards I started to notice white spots around my mouth and under my chin. These were not caused by drips or spilling. The area under my chin began to itch really bad and the best way to describe it would be like eczema. It takes about a week to clear up after I stop using the peroxide. Does anybody know what might be causing this?
Breathing Issues

So sorry I haven't been on here for awhile! I was drinking food grade h2o2--there are a million sites that will tell you how to go about it... I'll just take the time to write what's written on the back of the bottle here (remember, my % is 12% FGHP, purchased on amazon.com):
*after the dosage, they all are in 32 oz. (ounces) of DISTILLED water, 4 oz. Every hour or 8 oz. 4 times a day (I had chosen 8 ounces 4 x a day because you really MUST drink it on an empty stomach and, well, you can't have an empty stomach all the time! ); all measurements are in Teaspoons (tspn).
1st wk- 1/4; 2nd wk-1/2; 3rd wk- 3/4; 4th wk-1; 5th wk- 1 1/4; 6th wk-1 1/2; 1 teaspoon thereafter (meaning, they consider 1 tspn as a maintenance dose).
I stopped taking h2o2 ahile ago, bc it's a committment. BUT I feel kind of crappy again, so, I'll think I'll start it again soon... The problem is that your stomach has to be empty when you take it (or you'll just throw up), and this amounts to scheduling it, which I found to be a hassel. BUT I miss feeling awesome, so, I'm gonna have another go at it.
cheers and good luck :)
