"However, the hydrogen peroxide and menthol make these cleansing wipes a poor choice for any skin type. As a topical disinfectant hydrogen peroxide is an option, but it generates free-radical damage and that is harmful for skin. It is absolutely not preferable to the more stable and incredibly well-researched disinfectant benzoyl peroxide. Without the hydrogen peroxide and menthol, these wipes, whose solution is not rinsed from the skin, would have been a reliable product. © Ultra Acne Solution System ($24." - Paula Begoun and Bryan Barron, Don't Go to the Cosmetics Counter Without Me, 7th Edition (Get the book.)

"Even before doing that, it is good to soak them in a solution of11 In water and V12 food grade (35%) hydrogen peroxide in order to rid them of molds. Note that hydrogen peroxide purchased at drugstores, which is not food grade, contains toxic preservative chemicals. According to Elizabeth Baker, this step is necessary because, as the oxygen is becoming more and more depleted in our environment, molds are increasing. Soak nuts and seeds for just eight to ten minutes, then drain the solution and rinse them very well. After that, soak them six to twelve hours in distilled or spring water." - Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.)

"Hydrogen peroxide: Gargling and rinsing with hydrogen peroxide has been found to be terrific for many people. Oil of oregano: 2 capsules, three times a day Green drinks: Daily Note: All dosages are daily dosages and in pill or capsule form unless otherwise noted. better. I've long been an advocate of daily, fresh-made vegetable and fruit juice (see The 150 Healthiest Foods on Earth). Vegetables and fruits also help balance the system by providing a nice alkaline balance to our highly acidic, overly processed standard American diet." - Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth about What Treatments Work and Why (Get the book.)

"Consider using 3% food-grade hydrogen peroxide, sea salt and/or essential oils instead of toothpaste. Brush your teeth, rinse and gargle with fresh ocean water if at all possible. I do not use toothpaste and have not since 1992. I used to brush my teeth with sea salt and/or essential oils. Since I have had the metal taken out of my mouth, I now always use food-grade 3% hydrogen peroxide in a spray bottle for my dental hygiene." - David Wolfe, The Sunfood Diet Success System (Get the book.)

"One very easy and effective method is to first dip your toothbrush in hydrogen peroxide and then in baking soda," said Keyes. Along with thorough brushing, oral irrigation of the mouth is another excellent way to remove food residues and reduce disease-causing germs attached to tooth surfaces. A variety of good countertop and portable irrigators are widely available, including Hydrofloss (www.hydrofloss.com) and Viajet (www.oratec.com)." - Stephen Sinatra, M.D. and James C., M.D. Roberts, Reverse Heart Disease Now: Stop Deadly Cardiovascular Plaque Before It's Too Late (Get the book.) "First and foremost, says Keyes, periodontal infections in adults can be prevented and mild infections can be controlled by careful dental self-care (oral hygiene) with such inexpensive and natural products as salt, baking soda, hydrogen peroxide, and apple cider vinegar. These substances are potent bacterial killers. "In sufficient quantity, they instantly kill many of the microorganisms associated with gum infections on contact," said Keyes." - Stephen Sinatra, M.D. and James C., M.D. Roberts, Reverse Heart Disease Now: Stop Deadly Cardiovascular Plaque Before It's Too Late (Get the book.)

"Ozone therapy and intravenous hydrogen peroxide are other ways of reducing the viral load in your blood. These services require a specially trained, skilled physician to administer. Before the pandemic comes, inquire if your local hospital is equipped with blood purification devices or has a plan to purchase them. Find out which physicians in your community employ ozone or intravenous hydrogen peroxide therapy in their practice of medicine." - J. E. Williams, Beating the Flu: The Natural Prescription for Surviving Pandemic Influenza and Bird Flu (Get the book.)

"In addition, strains of lactobacilli that inhabit the vagina produce hydrogen peroxide (H202), another well-recognized antagonist to problematic bacterial populations. Lactobacilli also act directly as antibacterials61 and may function as a local immune stimulant in controlling microbial levels in the vagina. For these reasons, administering lactobacillus orally and intravaginally is one of the most important aspects of effectively treating and preventing yeast and bacterial vaginitis, although the scientific literature has inconsistent results." - Tori Hudson, N.D., Women's Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine: Alternative Therapies and Integrative Medicine for Total Health and Wellness (Get the book.) "Factors controlling this defense system include the content of the vaginal tissue itself (called the squamous epithelium), the dominance of lactobacilli, the subsequent low or acidic pH balance, hydrogen peroxide production, and hormonal influences (over one's lifetime as well as monthly cyclic changes)." - Tori Hudson, N.D., Women's Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine: Alternative Therapies and Integrative Medicine for Total Health and Wellness (Get the book.)

"The scientists also reported that treatment with ascorbate led to the formation of hydrogen peroxide, a chemical that kills cells. RESEARCH Research studies supporting the benefits of vitamin C are numerous, and studies relating to vitamin C's effects on cancer reveal positive results. University of California at Berkeley researcher, Bruce Ames, Ph.D., connected the ail-American "junk food diet" that is often deficient in essential vitamins like vitamin C to "causing more than an epidemic of obesity, heart disease and diabetes. It could be giving millions of people cancer, too." Dr." - Freedom Press, Natural Cancer Cures: The Definitive Guide to Using Dietary Supplements to Fight and Prevent Cancer (Get the book.)

"Hydrogen peroxide can also be used in very small amounts: sixteen drops of 35 percent food-grade hydrogen peroxide in one quart of water for plants (for larger gardens, use eight ounces of 35 percent in ten gallons of water per half acre of crops). hydrogen peroxide plant sprays have been getting enthusiastic endorsements from farmers and gardeners who have tried them. The Amish have apparently been using hydrogen peroxide for years. COMPOST-MAKING TIPS The simplest way to compost is to layer your food wastes and yard clippings in a box or a pile in your yard." - Debra Lynn Dadd, Nontoxic, Natural and Earthwise (Get the book.)

"Since I have had the metal taken out of my mouth, I now always use food-grade 3% hydrogen peroxide in a spray bottle for my dental hygiene. If you have metal fillings in your mouth, do not use hydrogen peroxide as it can draw metal and mercury ions into your salivary environment, thus degrading fillings and exposing one to heavy metal toxicity. Of important note here is that a mouth environment of high acidity and a diet high in sugar are relatively incapable of damaging teeth without the aid of plaque-forming streptococci bacteria." - David Wolfe, The Sunfood Diet Success System (Get the book.)

"The major antibacterial activity in honey, however, is thought to be due to hydrogen peroxide, which is produced enzymatically. The level of hydrogen peroxide produced is antibacterial, but doesn't damage the cell tissues. In July 2007, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration—believe it or not—gave Derma Sciences, a New Jersey-based manufacturer of wound-care products, clearance to sell Manuka wound and burn dressings as medical devices. Now Manuka honey can officially be used in wound and burn care in the United States." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.)

"In 1980, the Japanese notified the World Health Organization that hydrogen peroxide was a suspect as a cancer-causing agent. It was widely used in Japanese fish cakes. The noodles were dipped in dilute hydrogen peroxide for disinfections. The fish meat and raw flour were also mixed with hydrogen peroxide. In laboratory rats, it was discovered that in the sixty-fifth week, the lining of the duodenum was thickened but no cancers occurred. The Japanese Welfare Ministry decided that hydrogen peroxide is safe for food when it is entirely decomposed and that the food should not contain any residual." - Ruth Winter, Consumer's Dictionary of Food Additives: A Consumer's Dictionary of Cosmetic Ingredients Vitamin E (Get the book.)

"Most recently, research done at the Division of Urologic and Transplantation Surgery, University of Massachusetts Medical Center, Worcester, concluded that vitamin C inhibits cancer of the prostate through production of hydrogen peroxide, which damages the cells probably through an as yet unidentified free radical generation mechanism. "Our results also suggest that ascorbic acid is a potent anticancet agent for prostate cancer cells." - Freedom Press, Natural Cancer Cures: The Definitive Guide to Using Dietary Supplements to Fight and Prevent Cancer (Get the book.)

"Bio-oxidative therapies include hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy, ozone therapy, and hydrogen peroxide therapy, among others. Also helpful are superoxide dismutase, dimethylglycine, organic-ger-manium-132, glutathione peroxidase, homozone, vitamin E, aerobic exercising, and deep breathing in a relatively pure environment, as well as the herbs ginkgo biloba and butcher's broom. Antioxidants are an important part of Dr. Hodes's program." - Gary Null and Amy McDonald, The Food-Mood Connection: Nutrition-based and Environmental Approaches to Mental Health and Physical Wellbeing (Get the book.)

"Oxidative stress-related enzymes include superoxide dismutases, for eliminating the superoxide radical as well as catalase and glutathione peroxidases for removing hydrogen peroxide and organic peroxides [15, 17]. Polymorphisms have been observed in these enzymes, which can affect an individual's capacity to respond to changes in ROS; this is discussed in more detail at the end of this chapter." - Ann M. Coulston and Carol J. Boushey, Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease (Get the book.) "It has also been shown that CREB is activated by hydrogen peroxide in Jurkat T lymphocytes [255] and by cadmium in mouse neuronal cells [256], as well as during stroke [257]. Thus, this brief discussion shows that inflammatory and oxidative stressors can elicit a cascade of signals that result ultimately in the generation of additional stressors, loss of cell function, and, in the case of neurodegenerative disease, reductions in the protective capacity of the organism in senescence." - Ann M. Coulston and Carol J. Boushey, Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease (Get the book.) "Muscarinic-Transfected Receptors We and others have shown that there are increases in vulnerability to OS in aging that include striatal muscarinic receptor (MAChR) sensitivity to hydrogen peroxide application [264]. Given their importance in a variety of functions including memory [265], amyloid precursor protein (APP) processing [266], and vascular functioning [267], OS and age-sensitive deficits in MAChR may result in the cognitive, behavioral, and neuronal aberrations observed in aging that are exacerbated in AD and vascular dementia." - Ann M.

"At Hospital Santa Monica, a specially diluted form of hydrogen peroxide is administered intravenously. (Drinking or injecting straight hydrogen peroxide from a drug store is not safe.) DMSO is also added to the treatment to potentiate the hydrogen peroxide. Ozone treatments are administered primarily by "insufflation." This is a procedure whereby ozone is introduced painlessly into the rectal area.

"Some suggest the ability of probiotics to produce hydrogen peroxide plays a role; however, in vivo studies suggest that probiotics might prevent Candida growth through multiple mechanisms. E. coli Escherichia coli 0157:H7 (E. coli) is a leading cause of foodborne illness. People can become infected with E. coli in a variety of ways. Though most cases have been associated with eating undercooked, contaminated ground beef, people have also become ill from eating contaminated bean sprouts or fresh leafy vegetables such as lettuce and spinach." - Allison Tannis, Probiotic Rescue: How You can use Probiotics to Fight Cholesterol, Cancer, Superbugs, Digestive Complaints and More (Get the book.)

"As mentioned above, those include water, white vinegar, baking soda, lemon juice, and maybe some borax and hydrogen peroxide. And if do-it-yourself cleaning products aren't for you, there are many brands on the market that do not contain harsh chemicals but work expertly well. Nontoxic, environmentally friendly household cleaners are now available in most health food stores as well as many mass market stores (see Resource Directory, page 265, for leads).These can still be a little pricier than regular toxic cleaners, but your health is worth it." - Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.)

"They can produce acid and hydrogen peroxide. • They can attach to the cells of the vagina (vaginal epithelial cells). • Strains thought to offer these characteristics include: L. acidophilus 61701 and L. acidophilus 48101, as well as L. crispatus 55730 and L. delbrueckii 65407. Lactobacillus rhamnosus is thought to offer the best potential against bacterial vaginosis. Lactobacilli are particularly effective at preventing bacterial vaginosis. In a human clinical trial, 10 billion (1010) colony-forming units of L. rhamnosus were given orally to 10 women daily for two weeks." - Allison Tannis, Probiotic Rescue: How You can use Probiotics to Fight Cholesterol, Cancer, Superbugs, Digestive Complaints and More (Get the book.)
