Very Interesting - Peroxide - Who Knew
Safer And Healthier Than Bleach
This was written by Becky Ransey of Indiana (a doctor's wife),  She was over recently for coffee at a friends house and
smelled the bleach her friend was using to clean her toilet and counter tops. Becky gave her friend these helpful information...

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 cap full (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.
