Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy

I have been promising a review of this rather inexpensive and quite effective therapy, that is another of the ‘hushed-up’ therapies by the major media and medical community. This is strictly an overview and by no means should it be considered medical advice by anyone reading this. I suggest that you engage in a thorough investigation of any therapy you may be considering for yourself or a family member. With all that said, let’s check out the latest on Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) Therapy.

One of the theories regarding the reason everyone needs this therapy more than ever is because of the lowered amount of oxygen levels in our current environment. As you may be aware, getting oxygen to the cells of our body is vital to optimum health. Our modern lives and environment does not provide adequate amounts of oxygen for full support of life. Studies are indicating that cellular oxygen deprivation over a lifetime can lead to the development of numerous diseases. This is even more true in the polluted metropolitan areas, like ours!

It has been demonstrated that less-than-adequate oxygenation of tissues and cells, a condition known as hypoxia, predisposes one to a number of degenerative illnesses such as circulatory problems, digestive disorders, and even cancer.

Here’s a list of ailments that Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy helps:

• Allergies
• Alzheimer’s
• Anemia
• Arrhythmia
• Asthma
• Bacterial Infections
• Bronchitis
• Cancer
• Candida
• Cardiovascular Disease
• Cerebral Vascular Disease
• Chronic Pain
• Diabetes
• Digestion Problems
• Emphysema
• Epstein-Barr Infection
• Erythematosis
• Food Allergies
• Fungal Infections
• Gangrene
• Gingivitis
• Headaches
• Herpes
• Herpes Zoster
• HIV Infection
• Influenza
• Liver Cirrhosis
• Lupus
• Multiple Sclerosis
• Parasitic Infections
• Parkinsonism
• Periodontal Disease
• Prostatitis
• Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Shingles
• Sinusitis
• Sore Throat
• Ulcers
• Viral Infections
• Warts
• Yeast Infections

One of the key things to remember here is that you do NOT ever want to use the 3% Hydrogen Peroxide that you find on the common store shelves or pharmacy. The type that you want for this treatment is the 35% Food-Grade (FG) Hydrogen Peroxide – sometimes referred to as FG-H2O2. One pint of the FG-H2O2 solution contains the equivalent of 130 pints of oxygen.

Care must be taken in the handling of FG-H2O2 because the solution can cause burns if it comes into direct contact with the skin. If the solution does come in direct contact with the skin, immediately wash the affected area with cold water and all will be well.

****Individuals who have had transplants should not undertake an H2O2 program. H2O2 stimulates the immune system and could possibly cause a rejection of the transplanted organ.****

As I have said many, many times before – germs do not cause disease. They are in our body at all times in the form of bacteria, virus, parasite, fungus, mold and even possibly some entities as yet undiscovered. Yet, we are not ill. Why? Glad you asked – because our immune system’s strength and balance is optimal – and because these germs can only subsist on weakened, dying and/or dead cells. So, one of the primary keys to optimal health and function is to keep our cell population functioning at their optimal level. No food for the little critters means no infection/illness/disease processes for us lowly humans. Simple? You bet!

So, how does Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy figure into all this? Well, one of the very first lines of defense against any and all microorganism overgrowth recognized by the immune system are blood elements called macrophages and leukocytes. One of these uses Hydrogen Peroxide to ‘oxidize’ the germs involved in the overgrowth.

The ‘friendly’ germs found in the colon and vagina are “aerobic.” This means that they live and flourish in high oxygen  environments and thrive in the presence of oxygen-rich H2O2. Most strains of harmful bacteria (and cancer cells) are “anaerobic” and cannot survive in the presence of oxygen or H2O2. We can agree that hydrogen peroxide produced within the individual body cells is essential for life.

It is also widely accepted that most diseases start in the colon. The immune cells that are responsible for fighting infection in the body are the white blood cells. They make Hydrogen Peroxide and use it to ‘oxidize’ any microbial overgrowth.

The white bubbling you see when hydrogen peroxide comes in contact with a cut or wound is the oxygen being released and the germs being destroyed. The ability of our cells to produce hydrogen peroxide is essential for our life and well-being. FG-H2O2 is not some undesirable byproduct or toxin, but instead a basic requirement for good health.

In my next article, I will discuss the application of this product and just how it is recommended to be used.
