18 Reasons to Keep Hydrogen Peroxide at Home
Hydrogen Peroxide is an active agent material composed of nothing more than water and oxygen. The oxidation process of this material is incredibly good at killing disease organisms, and HP is considered one of the world's safest, all natural, sanitizer. It literally 'burns' micro-organisms by oxidation.
However, this material has so many
other uses, it was really hard to pick only the best, most useful ones
to share with you. So I've done my best to highlight some of the nifty
things you can do with it.
Tip: Make sure to only use the 3%
solution for most of these items, and do not use it for internal purpose
(do not swallow). Higher strength solutions such as 30% may cause
damage if ingested.
#1 Whiten your clothes with HP instead of bleach
By adding a cup of HP to the white
clothes in your laundry, you will see a marked improvement in how white
they are. This is a great way of getting rid of really insistent stains
such as blood or wine. For blood, just pour directly on the spot, wait a
minute, and then rub and rinse under cold water.
#2 Boosting your immune system
Your body makes its own HP to battle
infections. Our white blood cells, also known as Leukocytes, are the
cells responsible for fighting disease, viruses and infections, and some
of them produce HP as their first form of attack and defense from
toxins, infections, viruses, parasites and alike.
#3 Making a rejuvenating detox bath
Take 2 quarts of 3% HP and pour them
into a tub of warm water. Get in and enjoy a good soak for about 30
minutes, adding hot water as needed. This will help skin blemishes,
detox your body and rejuvenate you in a way you haven't felt before.
#4 Treating foot fungus
To use HP to cure your foot fungus,
make a mixture of 50% HP and 50% water, and use a spray bottle to spray
the infected area (especially the toes) every night. Let it dry
naturally.
#5 Treating a Yeast Infections
Using 2 caps or about 2 table spoons
of 3% HP, add the HP to warm, distilled water once or twice a week and
use it to treat the problematic area.
#6 Cleaning your toothbrush and other hygienic tools
There are many tools we use that need
to be kept clean and sanitized, such as your tooth brush, or your
children's retainer. Use a small amount of HP and dilute it with cold
water to make a cleansing brew that will make sure they are clean and
germ free.
#7 Treating exterior Infections
If you have a cut that got infected,
soak it in 3% HP for about 5-10 minutes, several times a day. HP is
extremely good for treating infections, and you can also pour half a
bottle of it in your bath to get rid of fungus, boils or any other skin
infections.
Note: Do not leave on open
wounds for a long time, use the solution and then wipe it off. Over
time, HP can do tissue damage to open wounds if left on them too long.
#8 Killing mite infections
Patients have reported that spraying
HP on skin infected by tiny mites that bite and cause irritation,
effectively kills them with incredible efficiency. Spray the area a few
times, and wait a few minutes between applications.
#9 Taking care of your Sinus Infection
Add a tablespoon of 3% HP to 1 cup of
(non chlorinated) water, and use it as a nasal spray. You may have to
adjust the amount of HP used according to the severity of the problem.
Start with just the 1 spoon first.
#10 Using as mouthwash and for tooth care
Take a capful or a tablespoon of 3%
HP and hold it in your mouth for 10 minutes, once a day. Do not swallow,
just spit it out. This will not only get rid and prevent canker sores,
but will also whiten your teeth. It will also help in the event of a bad
toothache you can't treat right away. 10 minutes several times a day
will lessen the pain to a more manageable level.
It also makes for a great and
inexpensive mouth wash. Again, make sure not to swallow and rinse your
mouth with regular water after use.
#11 Lighten the color of your hair
HP is a bleaching agent, of course,
and can be used to lighten your hair. Take a bottle of 3% HP and dilute
some with water (50/50). Then take a shower and, while the hair is still
wet, spray it with the solution, then comb it through. It won't look
like a burnt blonde color, but a more natural highlight for those with
light brown, reddish or dirty blond hair. It is also a gradual change so
you won't have a drastic new look on your hands.
#12 Clean your contact lenses
As a great disinfectant due to its
remarkable skill in breaking down the proteins that build up on the
lens, HP will not only clean your lens but will also increase your level
of comfort if you have sensitive eyes, removing those little biological
irritants that most solutions don't clean.
#13 Boosting your dishwasher
Add about 2 oz. (60 ml) of 3% HP to your regular formula, and see how much whiter and cleaner the dishes are.
#14 Make sure your cooking surfaces are disease free
Fill a spray bottle with the 50/50
solution we've talked about (50% water 50% HP) and use it to spray your
wooden cutting boards and cooking areas after you are done, to kill
salmonella or any other bacteria that might be growing there. To be
extra sure, use vinegar after the HP.
#15 Make a cheap and effective disinfectant
Make a cheap and very effective
disinfectant agent that is non-toxic and can be used to disinfect
fruits, vegetables, pet bowls, equipment and alike. Combining vinegar
and HP has been proven in several studies to kill pretty much all
Salmonella, Shigella, and E. coli bacteria. For this, prepare TWO spray
bottles. Don't mix these two together. One will contain regular vinegar
and the other regular Hydrogen peroxide.
(tip: Light is bad for peroxide, rending it inactive. So the best thing will be to keep it covered and in the bottle).
#16. Treating Mold
If you have those little spots
appearing on your walls, probably from water damage, taking care of them
is better done sooner than later, or they can get toxic and dangerous.
Clean them with HP a few times a day to kill them off.
#17 Helping sprouting seeds
If you're trying to get a seed to
grow stronger, add an ounce (30 ml) of 3% HP to 1 pint of water and let
the seeds soak in it overnight. Every time you rinse the seeds, add the
same amount of HP. They will grow faster and healthier.
#18 Preparing Vegetables
Wash or soak vegetables in a full sink of cold water mixed with a 1/4 cup of 3% HP.
Light skinned vegetables (such as ligh lettuce) should soak for about
20 minutes, while thicker skinned ones (such as cucumbers) can soak for
about 30 minutes. Then drain, dry and refregerate. This will not only kill all bacteria and neutralize chemicals, but will also make sure they keep fresh refrigerated for longer.
