Safer and Healthier than Bleach
This was written by Becky Ransey of Indiana (a doctor's wife),
and I want to share it with you. She was over recently for coffee and
smelled the bleach I was using to clean my toilet and counter tops. This
is what she told me...
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 capful (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, reddish, 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.
13. I use peroxide to clean my mirrors. There is no smearing,
which is why I
love it so much for this.
I could go on and on. It is a little brown bottle no home should
be without!
