I received this in an e-mail and thought that I would pass this info on. If anyone knows of any danger or reason why some of these uses would not be advised please post and let everyone know, otherwise I will assume that this is a pretty useful product. I do remember my grandfather gargling with peroxide and water when we were kids, not sure if is was/wasn't healthy for him though.
PEROXIDE IS WONDERFUL!
"I would like to tell you of the benefits of t hat plain little old bottle of 3% peroxide you can get for under $1.00 at any drug store. My husband has been in the medical field for over 36 years, and most doctors don't tell you about peroxide, or they would lose thousands of dollars."
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. (Small print says mouth wash and gargle right on the bottle)
2. Let your toothbrushes soak in a cup of "Peroxide" to keep them free of germs.
3. Clean your counters, 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% peroxde 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.
8. 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.
9. Tilt your head back and spray into nostrils with your 50/50 mixture whenever you have a cold, or plugged sinuses. It will bubble and help to kill the bacteria. Hold for a few minutes then blow your nose into a tissue.
10. 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.
11. 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.
12. Put half a bottle of peroxide in your bath to help rid boils, fungus, or other skin infections.
13. 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 directly on the soiled spot. Let it sit for a minute, then rub it and rinse with cold water. Repeat if necessary.
14. I use peroxide to clean my mirrors with, and 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! With prices of most necessities rising, I'm glad there's a way to save tons of money in such a simple, healthy manner.

A few drops of peroxide in your ear, lay on your side for a bit (watch out the foaming gives quite a tickling sensation). I prefer then torinse out the ear with a few drops of water afterwards. Although I have read that you really shouldn't do that because of bacteria in a wet ear, that you should use rubbing alcohol (don't quote me on that). But, I prefer the water, never had a prob. with that. This process helps loosen up ear wax. Also, I read somewhere that some people did this when they feel an illness coming on, said it prevented them from getting it...? Not all sure on that one though.

#13 is a good one to teach your daughters when they need to clean up from those sometimes "accidents" each month. Rinse and soap-scrub in cold water, then pour peroxide on any remaining spots. Let it set til stains are gone, then soap-scrub again and wash as usual.
