Hi there, Does anyone know if you can use the inhalation method with mercury amalgam fillings? I found out the hard way that you really cannot drink it unfortunately, and I haven't had them removed yet. I got so many benefits from H2O2 (before I got sick due to teh mercury released) that I would like to be able to use it. Alternatively can I drink it using a straw as one person suggested? Sorry if this has been covered, I haven't been able to find the answer.

Contraindications
Posted by John T. (United States) on 03/20/2020

Inhalation, if done correctly, should bypass your fillings. I would not recommend using the H2O2 mouth rinse though. I suspect, that a good deal of rinsing with water and spitting would minimize any amalgam/H2O2 reactions.

I would like to use a diffuser with hydrogen peroxide in it but I sleep with 2 dogs. My question is can I safely do this with dogs in the room? Thanks.

Hello, I read your post and was impressed. I suffer from chronic sinusitis problems and can't breathe through my nose at all I can't clear it at all -- even with my prescribed prescribed medication sprays.
I would like to know do you use 3% peroxide with how much (warm) water?
Thanking you, Carol. x

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.

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.

Hello Mama to Many,

I feel breathlessness many times. Specially winter and in summer if it it humid. Also I feel breathless when I have not eaten anything for a longtime. I feel breathlessness if I have some tensions of completing a task like cooking, cleaning etc. Can I use 35% food grade h202 by putting one drop in 8 oz water?

High Altitude
Posted by Hot___rocks (Albuquerque, Nm) on 04/01/2015

Hi! I've been battling with an ongoing staph infecting for about 5 years now. ABX obviously don't work & I've been using minerals as ABX whenever the boils/cysts presents itself.

I've used H2o2 IV's in the past, but they are so incredibly expensive I haven't been able to keep up with them long enough to eradicate this bacteria fully (though it's definitely weakened). I think nebulizing with H2o2 is the ticket & after reading so much about your experiences and successes, I'm sold.

I'm worried about nebulizing H202 in high altitudes. Should this be a concern? I'm between 5,000 - 7,000 feet above sea level and I've only just moved here, so my lungs have been feeling a slow readjustment to new altitude.

Thanks for any help/input. x Mallory

Turmeric is the answer to boils, staph - I have used after learning on EC for years. Buy a very large bag at the local Indian grocer, take a teaspoon at a time several times a day when you have boils, works wonders, dries up quick, pain stops. Search the site and read all about this spice.

I've been doing some research on Bill Munro's hydrogen peroxide inhaling treatment and so far all I've found indicates that it is extremely toxic. Of course, prior to finding as much information, I decided to give it a try by adding 1 tiny drop of h2o2 to my albuterol solution and the first time, worried about the consequences I found it felt as if it might work. My breathing immediately improved and felt different than just taking the albuterol. Unfortunately, after having read more, I must say I am now more worried of continuing. I'd appreciate any information amy one can provide on the subject.

Gus, the internet has every idea and it's exact opposite all over the web. So if you experienced help from it, go for it BUT SLOWLY. For example, I alway water down even the plain 3% HP from the drugstore even just for rinsing the mouth.

Dear Gus,

I agree with Mmsg.

We have found H2O2 inhalation (via inhalation or nebulizer) to work very well and we have not had any side effects in our family.

I do not think I would mix albuterol with Hydrogen Peroxide. I am not a chemist; perhaps it is okay. But unless I was sure there would be no reaction to use both together, I would use them apart. Maybe even 4 hours apart from each other. We have used albuterol and hydrogen peroxide in the nubulizer, but never at the same time. When I use peroxide in the nebulizer, I dilute it with distilled water. 5 drops hydrogen peroxide to 35 drops of water.

Sterilizing Tap Water
Posted by Bamagirl (Alabama, US) on 10/31/2014

I have read that you should not use tap water in the neti pot due to potential parasites, etc. I normally use distilled, but have a trip coming up. If I use peroxide in the water, would it sterilize the tap water? I don't want to carry along a jug of distilled water or have to find a place to boil some. Thanx

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.

Lung Issues
Posted by Theresa (Tallahassee, Fl) on 10/16/2016

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!

I just read your post concerning lobelia tincture, I assume this is for difficulty breathing, I think I will try this to see if it will help me with my shortness of breath, I tried jacks tea for about a week and it did not help me, the only thing I did different is I could not find mullein pods so I got some mullein leaves and boiled & strained the leaves, got leaves from a health food store. do you think the lobelia will help me or can you suggest anything else? I feel fine other than I really get winded just even walking across the room. thank you so much for any help you can suggest.

Hi RH, a while back you mentioned that you've been using a cool mist humidifier at night and that you add 1/2 cup of drugstore peroxide to the water and found that it helped you and your bride breathe through your nose all night.

I wondered if you use regular, old tap water or if you use distilled water?

Thanks!

I tried putting 1 oz of Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide (fghp) in one gallon of filtered water in a cool vapor vaporizer --using for asthma and copd. I got these directions from the seller of the h202. The vapor ruined my comforter cover and pillow cases and a sheet, and pajama top--small to medium size holes! I hate to think what this might be doing to my lungs. I didn't notice the holes until I washed the linens and the holes appeared. It was obviously too potent.

Not quite answering the question but may I add a little note here. In checking out the purity of the H20 that I use, I needed to know if there were stabilizers in the ingredient list, I rang the manufacturing company and lied. Told them my daughter was doing a school project and needed to know if there were any added ingredient in the product, to be told "No absolutely not". I would worry more about the stabilizers added to the peroxide as opposed to the water quality. Peroxide should clean the water by itself.


Breathing Issues
Posted by Liz (Massachusetts) on 04/26/2015

Thank you, Robert Henry!

I'd been using tap water but wanted to double-check to verify that it was okay to use.

My humidifier came with instructions to clean the unit's base once a week with white vinegar, and to clean the water tank with 1T of bleach mixed with water, so I've been doing that all along.

Thanks, again!

P.S. Many of my family members and friends call me "Lizzie", too. :)

In my opinion...and I'm not a doctor, but if you are inhaling it correctly, and using a good nasal mist pump bottle, I cannot see where you wouldn't have an easier time breathing. I would imagine if you are severe...you may not be getting it deep enough into your lungs. I think you are on the right track. Most of the articles I have read on this...and I have read many, ...they say you sometimes will have a little discomfort as it may be stirring up all the toxins and bacteria and it takes time to expell it. I was on the drinking method for a month due to having problems with bacteria in my stomach a lot. My fifth day, I vomited nothing but bile and bacteria. That was suppose to happen and it meant it was working on me. Same thing I would imagine applies. You have very little space in your lungs and it may take time to clear your situation up. I wish you all the luck in the world. I have researched for over a month straight on all these h2o2 therapies and I have not found anyone who didn't have some type of success out of it. And trust me...I looked. I love this and I am so happy to have found this...I won't ever stop and I will be 54 next month. My son is 28 and he has major issues where he can't breathe thru his nose at night...and sometimes during the day. I am putting him with a humidifier at night in his room. Will update soon.

Was that 3% or 35% used in humidifier? it must have been 35%, which would be way too strong undiluted and could do that. On this site it clarifies ratios when using 3 % or 35% and even percentages in between. You can print them off or copy them. Good Luck and best wishes in future.

Hydrogen Peroxide Inhalation for lungs. Does anyone have suggestions about the taste? I did one inhalation with 4 pumps. I think I only inhaled the first pump (because of the taste I must of tensed up and the remaining pumps pooled up) and swallowed the last 3. I decided to wait to continue until the taste went away but it lasted on and off for about 3 days. Is it because I swallowed a small amount or is the taste normal? I'd like to use this method again as a preventative measure.

Hi Jenny,

Thanks for answering. I have not formulated my question clearly. It does look like I meant to ask if they can be mixed and inhaled. What I actually meant was if I can inhale just the h2o2 solution as Bill says and then, right after, if I can drink the acv.

Will that have the same effect as if I drank the h2o2 drops and then drank the acv? This is my question and I should have presented it better.

If spraying in the nose... Be sure to dilute down to a safe solution AND BE SURE to use ONLY distilled or BOILED water. This is important! But if, he is going to spray into the lungs 3% should be fine.

I was searching for some ideas regarding natural therapies to supplement allopathic treatment for pneumonia and came across your site. I was very surprised to see a recommendation for peroxide inhalation to treat pneumonia. Yikes! While I can appreciate an exchange of ideas and see your site has a disclaimer regarding medical advice, I'd just like to make a comment to site participants that I would strongly discourage inhaling peroxide. Just as it creates a "bubbling" effect on a wound, the same would most likely happen in an infected lung creating a dangerous compromise in lung function and make things worse. I am not a physician, but an RN with 28yrs experience and I hope no one does that without talking to their doctor.

The nasal inhaler is suppose to be used in the mouth not up the nose. In Bill Munro's video he explains that using a nasal inhaler emits a fine spray so is easily inhaled via the mouth into the lungs. Hope that helps.

Sue, my understanding is that DMSO neutralizes hydrogen peroxide. I wouldn't mix them for that reason. Also, internal peroxide and DMSO by themselves are both very experimental. While I'm personally game for most anything if many people testify that it helped and did not apparently harm them, I wouldn't throw these remedies together willy nilly in a bottle and inhale them!

My issue is right around when I started taking HP I started getting flu type symptoms, my little ones where sick so I thought it was from them. I'm not sure this is the case. I am congested, coughing so bad I start throwing up; throat and chest area is hurting when I cough. and now having joint pains. My coughs are very dry but at times flim comes up its just clear & white. I want to keep using the treatment. Is this normal, it can be pretty painful and hard to deal with at work. Is it possible the HP is bad? Also I'm a smoker and stupidly still smoking while doing treatment. I would appreciate your insights. Regards
