Anyone tried this? Someone suggested looking into it and I had never heard of it.
So looks like it isnt a disinfectant nor antiseptic So i'd say that the link you posted is falseTherapeutic useHydrogen peroxide is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) as an antimicrobial agent, an oxidizing agent and for other purposes by the U.S. FDA.[33] For example, 35% hydrogen peroxide is used to prevent infection transmission in the hospital environment, and hydrogen peroxide vapor is registered with the US EPA as a sporicidal sterilant.
It is a common misconception that hydrogen peroxide is a disinfectant or antiseptic for treating wounds.[34][35] While it is an effective cleaning agent, hydrogen peroxide is not an effective agent for reducing bacterial infection of wounds. Further, hydrogen peroxide applied to wounds can impede healing and lead to scarring because it destroys newly formed skin cells.[36]
Hydrogen peroxide can be used as a toothpaste, or oral debriding agent, when mixed with correct quantities of baking soda and salt. This use is no more effective than toothpaste alone, however.[37]
Hydrogen peroxide and benzoyl peroxide are sometimes used to treat acne.[38]
Hydrogen peroxide is used as an emetic in veterinary practice.[39][40]
[edit] Alternative usesSee also: Liquid Oxygen (supplement)
Following the call by alternative medicine advisors for drinking diluted hydrogen peroxide, and using it in various ways such as in shampoo and as an additive to toothpaste, as a treatment to illness in general and cancer in particular, the American Cancer Society states that "there is no scientific evidence that hydrogen peroxide is a safe, effective or useful cancer treatment", and advises cancer patients to "remain in the care of qualified doctors who use proven methods of treatment and approved clinical trials of promising new treatments." [41]
Another controversial alternative medical procedure is inhalation of hydrogen peroxide at a concentration of about 1%. Intravenous usage of hydrogen peroxide has been linked to several deaths.[42][43]
Excellent, 2 books I read really explain in detail with evidence about H2O2.This explains it. Sounds kinda kooky to me, honestly. I just thought I'd see if anyone had heard of it.
Remember anyone can post to wiki. Not a credible resource.From the wiki you posted:"Intravenous usage of hydrogen peroxide has been linked to several deaths."
YIKES! I don't think I'll be pursuing this one!
