I would like to tell you of the benefits of that plain little ol' bottle of 3% peroxide you can get for under $1.00 at any drug store. ................................

1. Take one capful (the little white cap that comes with the bottle) and hold in your mouth for 10 minutes daily, then spit it out. (I do it when I bathe or shower.) No more canker sores and your teeth will be whiter without expensive pastes. Use it instead of mouthwash.

2. Let your toothbrushes soak in a cup of peroxide to keep them free of germs.

3. Clean your counters, table tops with peroxide to kill germs and leave a fresh smell. Simply put a little on your dishrag when you wipe, or spray it on the counters.

4. After rinsing off your wooden cutting board, pour peroxide on it to kill salmonella an d other bacteria.

5. I had fungus on my feet for years - until I sprayed a 50/50 mixture of peroxide and water on them (especially the toes) every night and let dry.

*6. Soak any infections or cuts in 3% peroxide for five to ten minutes several times a day......

*7. Put two capfuls into a douche to prevent yeast infections. I had chronic yeast infections until I tried this once or twice a week.

8. Fill a spray bottle with a 50/50 mixture of peroxide and water and keep it in every bathroom to disinfect without harming your septic system like bleach or most other disinfectants will.

*9. Tilt your head back and spray into nostrils with your 50/50 mixture whenever you have a cold, plugged sinus. It will bubble and help to kill the bacteria. Hold for a few minutes then blow your nose into a tissue.

10. If you have a terrible toothache and cannot ge t to a dentist right away, put a capful of 3% peroxide into your mouth and hold it for ten minute several times a day. The pain will lessen greatly.

11. And of course, if you like a natural look to your hair, spray the 50/50 solution on your wet hair after a shower and comb it through. You will not have the peroxide burnt blonde hair like the hair dye packages, but more natural highlights if your hair is a light brown, faddish, or dirty blonde. It also lightens gradually so it's not a drastic change.

12. Put half a bottle of peroxide in your bath to help rid boils, fungus, or other skin infections.

13. You can also add a cup of peroxide instead of bleach to a load of whites in your laundry to whiten them. If there is blood on clothing, pour directly on the soiled spot. Let it sit for a minute, then rub it and rinse with cold water. Repeat if necessary.

14. I use peroxide to clean my mirrors with, there is no smearing, which is why I love it so much for this.

*15. Gargle with hydrogen peroxide, put drops in the ear and nose to end colds, flu, chronic sinusitis (including polyps], and infections.

16. Use as a vegetable wash or soak to kill bacteria and neutralize chemicals.

17. Disinfect your dishwasher or refrigerator.

18. Use it on trees and plants as a natural fungicide, insecticide, and as a weed killer.

?19. Clean with hydrogen peroxide when your house becomes a biohazard after its invaded by toxic mold, such as those with water damage.

I could go on and on. It is a little brown bottle no home should be without! With prices of most necessities rising, I'm glad there's away to save tons of money in such a simple, healthy manner!"

Hi Pauline

This is I believe taken from a widely circulated internet letter of the urban legend type. They have to be regarded with some suspicion. Any suggestion that internal use of Hydrogen Peroxide can treat or cure a wide variety of serious illness has no bearing in proven scientific or medical fact.

The general hygiene and cleansing tips given here are probably useful and harmless. However there are doubts about the wisdom of a few of the health care tips that could be very damaging if used without medical supervision or improperly.

The claims about HP getting rid of all germs, bacteria, moulds, viruses, anthrax and so on would need to be carefully investigated before relying on them

I'll try the HP for cleaning jobs - right now I use bicarbonate of soda/baking soda a lot around the house.

It certainly has more uses than I was aware of but I've used it in the past it turned my gums completely white (temporarily) and they were extremely painful, I now use a toothpaste that has bicarb in to whiten my teth its abrasive and supposedly bad for enamel but so are most of my meds(bad for my liver)! its a can't win disease and very much personal trial and error surprisingly
vinegar has many of same properties too
good luck with it and keep it away from your hair
