         PEROXIDE
     Here's another email that is in circulation now.  
    We cannot confirm its validity but we thought the information interesting
    enough to archive on our website.
     Hydrogen
    Peroxide 
    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 counter tops. 
     
    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? B ecause 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, faddish, 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.
