In Reply to: Uses of Peroxide. - Who Knew?
When my son was a newborn 11 years ago, his pediatrician told me to use peroxide on his umbilical cord stump instead of alcohol. The scab dried up in just a few days and fell off quickly. Did the same thing for the next 2 babies too.

Uses of Peroxide.
Peroxide, who knew? *
(Safer and Healthier than Bleach)
This was written by Becky Ransey of Indiana (a doctor's wife), and I
want to share it with you. She was over recently for coffee and
smelled the bleach I was using to clean my toilet and countertops.
This is what she told me...
I would like to tell you of the benefits of that plain little ole
bottle of 3% peroxide you can get for under $1.00 at any drug store.
What does bleach cost?
My husband has been in the medical field for over 36 years, and most
doctors don't tell you about peroxide. Have you ever smelled bleach in
a doctor's office? NO!!! Why? Because it smells, and it is not
healthy! Ask the nurses who work in the doctor's offices, and ask them
if they use bleach at home. They are wiser and know better!
Did you also know bleach was invented in the late 40's? It's chlorine,
folks! And it was used to kill our troops. Peroxide was invented
during WWI in the 20's. It was used to save and help cleanse the needs
of our troops and hospitals. Please think about this.
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.) 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 and 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 and 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. My husband has seen gangrene that would not heal
with any medicine but was healed by soaking in peroxide.
7. 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.
8. 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, and then blow your nose
into a tissue.
9. If you have a terrible toothache and cannot get to a dentist right
away, put a capful of 3% peroxide into your mouth and hold it for ten
minutes several times a day. The pain will lessen greatly.
10. 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 or
dirty blonde. It also lightens gradually, so it's not a drastic change.
11. Put half a bottle of peroxide in your bath to help rid boils,
fungus, or other skin infections.
12. 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 it directly on the soiled spot. Let it sit for a minute, then rub
it and rinse with cold water. Repeat if necessary.
13. I use peroxide to clean my mirrors. There is no smearing, which is
why I love it so much for this.
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 a
way to save tons of money in such a simple, healthy manner!
This information really woke me up. I hope you gain something from it,
too.
Pass it on!
Another use of peroxide
If you wash something red with some colored clothes that have white on them and end up with pink on them, soak them in warm water with peroxide overnight it takes the pink right out. Just did this recently.
another thing about peroxide
my dentist said that it's okay to use it once in a while, but they do not recommend using it regularly as it softens the gums
the best thing about the peroxide is....sm
other than being cheap, it cleans your pores really well deep down, so if you have chronic blackheads, like I did, the peroxide gets rid of them too, completely and immediately!
rinse with peroxide regularly, pain will go away....
