Hydrogen Peroxide Uses
I have a friend who used the 50/50 mixture mentioned below on her feet and her toe fungus went away.
We have used peroxide for soaking infected toes and fingers for years. It really cleans out the infection.
When my son rolled a four-wheeler, he had a really nasty case of road rash and he completely peeled a 2″ x 3″ section of skin off the palm of his hand. We soaked all affected areas daily with peroxide, then covered them in vitamin E oil and bandaged them. His hand healed over with almost no noticeable scarring! We never had to take him to the doctor – treated it all at home. No infection set in. The home treatments worked beautifully.
We used peroxide on the floor carpeting of our car when my husband was transporting several bags of chicken and one broke open, leaking chicken blood on the floor carpeting in the back seat of his car. It took about a bottle and a half, but he just soaked it down in hydrogen peroxide and let it dry. It took the horrible smell away and left the carpet clean. I thought I would pass these other ideas on to all!
The email I received said this was written by Becky Ransey of Indiana, but I do not know if this is correct. I include it only to give credit – if that’s not accurate, I apologize.
“I would like to tell you of the benefits of that 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% 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, or plugged sinuses. It will bubble and help to kill the bacteria. Hold for a few minutes, 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 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, 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.

Thank you so much for letting us know about all these uses for peroxide. I have heard of some of them, as my parents used it for our breath and teeth, but not all of these. It will be a blessing to pass it on to others to also use.
