The Miracle of Hydrogen Peroxide Therapy

Hydrogen peroxide therapy is one of the oldest treatments in America. It is also a very effective treatment againstinfectionswhilebeingverymuchignoredbymainstreammedicine.Imustreportonthispromisingtherapy, as so many physicians and patients have given me good tidings from its use. What is probably not so well known by the general public, and many practicing physicians, is that hydrogen peroxide has been used for more than a century, the abstracts of articles and research reports published from 1966 through 1988 alone reaches 2" high when printed on 8-1/2"X11" paper.

A number of alternative medical clinics in the United States and Mexico use hydrogen peroxide therapy as well as other treatment modalities on a routine basis, usually given by intravenous injection (IV). Im sorry to report that the most important researcher, Charles Farr, M.D., Ph.D. is no longer with us to guide us, but, before he died he left important application information with us.

Before scoffing, keep in mind that one of the very first lines of defense against any and all microorganisms recognized as invaders by our immunological system are macrophages and leucocytes, one of which uses hydrogen peroxide to oxidize the foreigners; and that vitamin C is effective principally by its ability to promote hydrogen peroxide use against foreign invaders including parasites, viruses, bacteria, yeast/fungus; and that all body tissues contain catalase and that hydrogen peroxide in the presence of catalase is reduced to oxygen and water. So, there is strong reason to believe that added hydrogen peroxide, used properly, may be both effective against certain organisms and safe.

Hydrogen peroxide is an essential metabolite, meaning that it is necessary to life's process according to William Campbell Douglass, M.D.

As we age, our immunological system weakens, which permits organisms of opportunity to spread, thereby breeding colonies of organisms whose presence is anathema to good health. Killing these organisms should permit at least temporary respite from microbial warfare, and give your system time to heal.

According to William Campbell Douglass, M.D.[2], not only is H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide) involved in phagocytosis (killing and absorption of foreign germs), but also "it acts like insulin in that it aids the transport of sugar through the body." It is also at least as important, or perhaps more so, than thyroid for heat generation because it creates "intracellular thermogenesis, a warming of your cells which is absolutely essential to life's processes."

Various alternative medical physicians also use hydrogen peroxide therapy for various ailments.

Physicians have independently discovered such treatments to be effective against some types of cancer, leukemia, arthritis, coronary heart disease, arterial circulation disorders, colitis, gum diseases, and assorted children's diseases.

The First International Conference of Bio-oxidative Medicine was held February 17-19, 1989 in Dallas/

Ft. Worth, TX. Physicians presented papers on the efficacy and safety of hydrogen peroxide infusions. Since that date the non-profit International Bio-Oxidative Medicine Foundation[1] has grown rapidly, attracting many physicians who have also presented many scholarly works based on their treatment of patients.

While Chelation Therapy is an extremely useful treatment and preventive measure for at least 80% of peripheral circulation problems, it apparently cannot clean out hardened plaque in arteries, like the large heart arteries and the aorta[3]. (See "Cleaning Out Your Plumbing -- Chelation Therapy" on Kindle or Nook.) According to Douglas, the Baylor University Medical Center may "have gone a long way toward proving that H2O2 dripped into the leg and carotid vessels of patients known to have severe arteriosclerosis will clear those arteries of disease. When these patients died, autopsies were done to compare arteries that had been treated with H2O2 with those not treated. They reported: `The elution [separation] of lipids from the arterial wall by dilute hydrogen peroxide has been accomplished....' In simple English that means the plaque buildup was removed by injecting H2O2 into the blood vessels.... That was over 20 years ago[2]."

Dr. Douglass added that, "The investigators also reported that the improvement is not temporary."

While H2O2 has been used to good advantage for hardening of the arteries, temporal arteritis, shingles, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, the yeast syndrome, various viral infections, including AIDS, certain forms of cancer, dental gum diseases, colds (35% H2O2 in cold humidifier), growing better food, purifying water withoutchlorinecomplications,increasingthyroidactivity,arthritis,depression,emphysema,lupuserythematosis, multiple sclerosis,..., a list of claims made would exceed our space limitations, and so I direct you to others for substantiation and research reports: The International Bio-Oxidative Foundation[1] and ECHOS[4], as per references. [I have been unable to locate ECHOS for some years. However, a search on the World Wide Web will reveal location of the International Bio-Oxidative Foundation as well as some accurate websites.

Also see McCabe's book, Oxygen Healing Therapies . After the death of its founder, Charles Farr, M.D., PhD. the International Bio-Oxidative Foundation possibly no longer exists, either. As with any new, effective treatment protocol, the FDA sat down hard on this one also, more than likely because it detracted from profits of large pharmaceutical companies.]

A word of caution: while many reputable physicians and researchers have made legitimate claims on the safety and efficacy of H2O2, it is my opinion that there are a lot of scam artists using or selling H2O2 and so one must be careful[12]. I believe that you can rely on the past work of the International Bio-Oxidative Medicine Foundation, ECHOS and Charles Farr, M.D., Ph.D.

There are also many important forgotten facts in the past medical literature. For example, William Campbell Douglass, M.D. reports on "Dr. Edward C. Rosenow, author of 450 published medical papers and associate at the Mayo Clinic for over 60 years... proved [more than] 70 years ago (1914) that bacteria could be found consistently in the lymph nodes that drain joints ( J.A.M.A. , April 11, 1914). He was probably the first scientist to postulate that H2O2 would help arthritis because of its ability to supply oxygen to oxygen-hating organisms causing arthritis ( Streptococcus viridans )."

Charles H. Farr, M.D., Ph.D., says, "Perhaps we have become myopic about biological oxidation! The majority of investigational studies seem to concentrate on the damaging effects of biological oxidation and the production of free radicals. Hydrogen peroxide is usually treated as a[n] intermediate or by-product of metabolism and considered of minor significance in metabolic pathways except as it relates to biochemical disruption, tissue or cellular damage.

"We feel the physiological effects of bio-oxidation and, in particular hydrogen peroxide should be investigated with a new prospect.

"From the 2,500 or more references on hydrogen peroxide we have collected and reviewed we have come to appreciate this physiological product as a[n] extremely important molecule in metabolism. Hydrogen peroxide is produced by all cells of the body for many different physiological reasons. The granulocytes produce H2O2

as a first line of defense against bacteria, yeast, virus, parasites, macrophages, and most fungi. It is involved in any metabolic pathway which utilizes oxidases, peroxidases, cyclo-oxygenase, lipoxygenase, myeloperoxidase, catalase and probably many other enzymes. Hydrogen peroxide is naturally involved in protein, carbohydrate and fat metabolism, immunity, vitamin and mineral metabolism or any other system you might wish to explore.
