Oxygen is the most
abundant element on the surface of the earth. It comprises 45.6% of the
earth's crust and 20.95% of dry air. It is the most vital and necessary
element for the survival of life. Without oxygen, you can live only a few
minutes.
Through his research
efforts, Dr. Edward Carl Rosenow (1875 - 1966) worked out the causes of
some 35 diseases and was the author of 450 medical papers. Dr. Rosenow
develped a technique by which microorganisms in the body could be eliminated
or controlled. His basic tenet was that in every body are millions of microorganisms,
which adapt to the habitat they are in. He felt that the wastes and secretions
of these microorganisms contributed to many degenerative diseases. In this
belief, he agreed with the thinking of other medical scientists such as
Bechamp, Rife, Enderlein, and Gaston Naessens. Dr. Rosenow experimented
with the use of hydrogen peroxide to reduce these microorganisms.
Hydrogen peroxide was
first reported by the French chemist Louis-Jacques Thenard in 1818, who
named it 'eau oxygene' or oxygen water. It is found in traces in rain and
snow (McGraw-Hill Encyclopedia of Science & Technology, 5th Edition,
p.747). In 1863 Meissner proved its presence in the rain water collected
during thunderstorms and this has since been corroborated by others (Journal
of the American Medical Association, Vol x No. 9, March 3, 18880. It gets
into our rain and snow from atmosphere ozone decending from above coming
into contact with water vapour.
From 1880 to 1904,
Charles Marchand published 18 books on the subject of hydrogen peroxide
and ozone.
An article on the intravenous
injection of hydrogen peroxide appeared in The Lancet of February 21, 1920
(Influenzal Pneumonia: The Intravenous Injection of Hydrogen Peroxide).
An article on external
use appeared in Hautzart 12:425, Setember 1961, Germany (On a Simple and
Painless Treatment of Warts).
Since 1966, there have
been over 600 medical articles published about hydrogen peroxide. They
do not all concern humans, and they are not all positive
In 1983, there were
over 100 articles published on the subject of hydrogen peroxide.
The Food & Drug
Administration in Federal Regulation Vol. 46 No 6, January 9, 1981, gave
the food industry the green light to use hydrogen peroxide in the packaging
process. The FDA has further ruled that hydrogen peroxide can be used in
the processing of cheese and cheese products, eggs and egg products, and
as an antimicrobial agent in whey processing. They have also allowed it
to be used in cleaning and healing mouth injuries. Hydrogen peroxide is
now being used intravenously and intraarterially by a number of American
doctors. The Inernational Bio-Oxidative Medicine Foundation (P.O. Box 13205,
Oklahoma City, OK 73113) is supporting clinical reserch in this area.
Hydrogen peroxide is
found in fresh fruit and vegetables, some of it coming from rain, and some
of it manufactured in the process of photosynthesis (General Biochemistry,
Furton & Sommonds, p.338). Eating fruits and vegetables raw ensures
that we get this hydrogen peroxide into our bodies, along with valuable
enzymes. Mother's milk contains a good amount of hydrogen peroxide, and
colostrum contains even more. The spring water of Lourdes, famous for its
healing powers, has a very high content of naturally occuring hydrogen
peroxide.
Hydrogen peroxide is
used in milk in 45 countries around the world, removing the need for refrigeration.
An article on the 'aseptic' process for milk can be found in "Trailer Life,"
Novemeber 1981, p51-52.
Many people have found
benefit in drinking diluted amounts of hydrogen peroxide, but it can be
nauseating and cause stomach upset. It is better to bathe in it, putting
8 ounces of 35% food grade H2O2 in a tub of warm, chlorine-free water and
soaking for 25-30 minutes.
Alternatively,
you could spray the body after a shower with 3% hydrogen peroxide, avoiding
the eyes and hair.
Spray
vegetables and fruits with a 3% solution of H2O2 and then rinse, to remove
pesticides.
In the dishwasher, add
2 oz. of 3% to the regular washing formula.
In the wash machine, add
8 oz. of 3% to the wash in place of bleach.
As a mouthwash, gargle
with 3% H2O2, and then rinse.
Use baking soda and 3%
H2O2 to make a paste for brushing teeth.
As a douche, add 2 tablespoons
of 3% to a quart of distilled water.
For an enema, add 2 tablespoons
of 3% to a quart of distilled water.
To make a 3% solution,
mix 11 oz. of distilled water with 1 oz. of 35% hydrogen peroxide.
