Some interesting facts about butter and margarine
Oleomargarine or margarine was
first manufactured to fatten turkeys. Unfortunately, the
product began killing off the turkeys, so rather than lose the money
invested in the product, someone decided to sell it as a butter
substitute, because it was very cheaply manufactured and had somewhat
the consistency of butter.
So
thus was born a product with practically no food appeal, brought to the
market as a butter substitute. Later, the dye packet was
replaced with a gelatin bubble which had to be broken by squeezing it,
that way you could kneed it still in the package of plastic, until it
was the right color.
later, it was sold already colored, but with out much food value.
How
do you like it? later they came out with new flavorings. When
I worked for Durkees Foods in Berkeley while I was in college, I worked
in the laboratory and analyzed the oil that went into the product,
mostly 80% cottonseed oil and 20% Soy bean oil. It was
hydrogenated to make it firm, and some times if it was not hard enough,
palm kernal oil was added. Then came the flavorings and
nutrients added to it. I sat on many panels, or rather round
tables to judge the taste of the finished product. Can you
tell the difference between butter and margarine? I could and
still can.
Now for some facts, Butter is slightly
higher in saturated fats at 8
grams compared
to 5
grams. Both
have the same amount of calories.
Eating margarine can increase heart disease in women by 53% over eating the same amount of butter,
according to a recent Harvard Medical Study.
Eating Butter increases the absorption of many other nutrients in other foods.
Butter has many nutritional
benefits where margarine has only that which is added and by itself has
little to no nutritional
value.
Butter tastes
much better than margarine and can enhance the flavors of other
foods.
I remember sitting on taste panels, the company tried all kinds
of artificial flavors to duplicate the taste of butter, many of the
panel members often could not distinguish the difference between the
two, I always could.
Butter has been around for
centuries where margarine has been around for less than 100
years.
And now for
Margarine..
Very high in trans fatty acids,
Triple risk of coronary
heart
disease.
Increases total
cholesterol and LDL (the bad cholesterol) and lowers HDL
cholesterol, (the good cholesterol).
Margarene is but ONE MOLECULE away from being a PLASTIC...
This fact alone was enough to have been avoiding margarine
for life and anything else that is hydrogenated (hydrogen added),
changing the molecular structure of the cottonseed oil/soybean oil.
You can try
this yourself:
Purchase a
tub of margarine and leave it in your garage or shaded area.
Within a couple of days you will note a couple of things
happening.
*No flies, not even those onery fruit flies will
go near it(does that tell you anything?)
*it
does not rot or smell differently because it has no nutrional value;
nothing
will grow on it. Even those teeny weeny microorganisms will
not find a home to grow. Why? Because it is nearly a plastic.
Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that on your
toast?
Do you want to
lose weight? Go on a diet of nothing but margarine, you will be the
lightest weight corps on record!!

Hi everyone, this is a miniature blog about a few things.Someone once
asked me why I don't have membership in The Better Business Bureau.
Well here is the deal, to belong to the BBB, it costs $500 per year.
Now if I was making a lot of money on this site, that may not be such a
bad deal, problem is, I have not made more than about $25 all year, so
I could not afford to join the organization, even as a business
expense. Perhaps later. You can check on my
character by just asking me, or "google" my name, you might find a
surprise. I can give you some references if you would like to
see what others say about me. Speaking of
that, you may be wondering why I do not put more products in the store
anyway. The truth is, if I put more than 500, the people who are
hosting this site charges me more. However, if there is anything you are
interested in and can't find it anywhere, I may be able to get it for you, as I have over 10,000 suppliers
that I work with. Life Force
International and EcoQuest International have many very good
health related products in there lines so you really should
check them out. Some of these products,such as Body Balance from Life
Force really work quite well, I use it myself and it has just about knocked the
Rheumatoid Arthritis from my body. It has worked wonders with other
folks as well, you should see some of the testimonials which I have
regarding this material. Be sure to read the data sheet on it, as it
contains a lot good healthy nutrients which your body needs.Take a look a the product information page. And the
products from Vollara also work extremely well. If you are concerned
about catching a nasty bug, such as MRSA, you need to check out what is
said about some of these products. Again, I use some of them myself,
and I think it has kept me from coming down with the "Flu", bad colds,
and such. You should visit the EcoQuest web site for more information
than you find here the address is
www.ecoquestintl.com/jls932. This is my personal web site with them. The last thing I want to mention here is, that my granddaughter who is only 16, and lives in Virginia has qualified to go on a very enriching trip next June. She is a very bright little girl, but her parents are not especially rich, so she needs to do some fund raising to be able to take this trip. Great Britain and Ireland are on the list for places she will visit. She needs to come up with about $7000 to cover the expenses, which includes airfare, lodging, and the cost of the chaperones. I have pledged 20% of all the profits from this web store to go to her travel fund. So, if you can, please buy as much as you can from me, so that we can help this beautiful little child, we would be most grateful. As soon as I can, I will place a picture of her on the site so you can see what she looks like. Should you purchase something and would like her email address, please get back to me and I will give it to you, so she can thank you personally. I really want to thank all of you out there who made a contribution towards this little girl's trip.

What is MRSA and why are the Health Authorities
So
Concerned?
As mentioned
earlier, MRSA, or methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus, is a
mutated form of the well-known pathogen Staphylococcus aureus (also
known as staph). It lives on the skin of most people, but in its
mutated state it can cause deaths in humans within a matter of days if
it works its way into the blood stream througha monor scratch or scrape
the skin or an open sore, wound,cut or boil.Staph was once easily
treated with penicillin, but the organism is now completely resistant.
Even the the more powerful prescription antibiotic drug, methicillin,
barely touches this deadly superbug. Over the past several years, MRSA
infections have become increasingly common in hospitals where it now
accounts for over 60% of all staph infections. MRSA is now spreading
into the general public as well, infecting children in
nurseries,schools and daycare centers. It has spread to adults in busy
offices as well in gymnasiums, sport centers, public swimming pools,
and where large groups of people congregate. What most people do not
know is that a safe inexpensive and a completely natural cure for MRSA
has been known of for over 30 years. The questions is, will the medical
bureaucrats ever allow the public to know about this natural cure? It
is more deadly than AIDS. According to the Journal of the American
Medical Association, MRSA alone is now responsible for an estimated
94,000 life threatening infections and whopping 18,650 deaths annually,
and the rate show no sign of slowing. That is 2,650 more deaths per
year than those caused by AIDS. All you have to do to put yourself into
harms way, is to go out into crowded public places. This is not spread
by folks breathing on you either, it is by person to person contact, or
contact of something that was used by an infected person, gyms.
swimming pools, overcrowded swimming prisons,
schools, daycare centers, colleges, and
especially hospitals.
Why aren't
the authorities letting the general public know how they can protect
themselves? That is a good question, But they are not. Why
not? In a later report, I will give some reasons for this,
but there are several ways in which you can protect yourself, one is by
the use of Active Pure Technology, another
is by Silver. Both of these technologies have been around for several
years.
We will talk about both of these techniques in future reports.
Mom worry: Is eating a hamburger that's not cooked
enough a surefire way to get food poisoning?
Facts: Not
necessarily. While an undercooked hamburger is a concern when it comes
to food poisoning -- courtesy of the infamous E. coli bacteria -- an
increasing number of food-borne illnesses are actually caused by
produce. That's because bacteria can be spread from animal products to
fruits and vegetables through contaminated water or soil -- and, of
course, there can be cross-contamination in the kitchen. And once the
bugs are there, they often stick tenaciously to the textured surfaces
of produce, ultimately making you or your kids sick. Summer is a
particularly dangerous time: When people bring food to parks and
beaches, and don't keep it cool, bacteria can grow and multiply even
more quickly. Parenting.com: The

Okinawa, a beautiful Island in Japan, boasts the longest documented lifespan of any area in the civilized world. Okinawan's have remarkably clean arteries and low cholesterol. Heart disease, breast cancer and prostate cancer are rare. This can be attributed to the Okinawans mostly plant based diet that includes fish and soy foods with a variety of vegetables and a moderate amounts of good fats. If you haven't yet heard about "The Okinawan Diet" you will. Keep reading to discover secrets to a long life . . .Read the full article here
You have seen the ads for Viagra and you've probably heard about the dangers associated with it. But you have probably seen little or no news about a remarkable amino acid that works in the same way as Viagra.
The amino acid is called arginine, andit works by relaxing smooth muscle contractions, which boosts arterial dilation. This brings more blood to the pelvic area, resulting in stronger erections.
The body uses arginine to produce nitric oxide, a chemical neede to achieve erections.(Viagra works by making nitric oxide more readily available in the body.)
You can find arginine at any health food store. The typical dosage is 1,000mg to 2,000 mg twice daily in capsule for. Make sure take it between meals,since many foods contain lysine, an amino acid that counteracts arginine's beneficial effects.
A University of Wisconsin
study reveals that grape juice reduces the risk of blood clots and
boosts cardiac health, says a recent article in The New York Times.
"By now the cardiovascular benefits of
a daily glass of wine are well known. But many teetotalers wonder
whether they can reap the same rewards from wine's unfermented sibling,
or are they simply left out altogether.
"...But
the substances believed to provide much of red wine's heart benefits --
resveratrol and flavonoids -- are also found in grape juice."
The muscadine grape has one of the highest
antioxidant scores of any fruit. It is one of nature's best sources of
resveratrol, the compound that is so heart-healthy in red wine. Studies
on resveratrol have linked it to a healthy heart and blood vessels.
"Heartland Select is remarkable," says
Business Owner Jamie Holdcraft of Howell, Michigan. "We feel so much
better and have so much more energy. I work two jobs and drink mine
when I get home from my first job. Heartland gives me the energy to get
through another evening of working."

There has been a lot of hype lately on the use of Stem cell, most of the objections for the use of Stem cells is based more or less on religious or moral reasons. The problem is, those who object the loudest are usually totally uninformed about this issue and because of this, research and use of this procedure is largely ignored.
I recently came across an article in a leading health news letter about an amazing breakthrough treatment used to wipe out Parkinson's, Alzhemer's, and many other Chronic Illnesses which I think should be read and possibly used by many folks.
If you or anyone you know suffer from any of these Chronic diseases, I would suggest you take heed. Even if you yourself do not suffer from these illnesses, there may come a time when you will and now is the time to act.
The brekthrough is the controversial Stem Cell Therapy. But this Stem Cell Therapy is unlike any you've ever heard of. The therapies you've heard about in news get the stem cells from two main surces:fetal cells and umbilical cord blood.
As a baby develops in the womb, it's loaded with primitive stem cells. And the blood in the umbilical cord also is loaded. The advantage of the former(the baby itself)is that stem cells can be "harvested" from target organs. But there major ethical problems--use of an aborted human baby. This is illegal in the U.S., but many offshore clinics have been using fetal cells from eastern European aborted pregnancies. But to get this therapy, you'll have to travel to an unregulated clinic in a foreign country and then pay upwards of $25,000 for these cells.
Umbilical cord blood stem cells don't carry any moral or ethical problems. It's an easyroutine procedure to collect cord blood from the cut cord. Once harvested, the placenta and umbilical cord cells are taken to a lab. There, lab techs grow the cells in culture, and then doctors can administer them to patients.
Both of these procedures have some limitations. If there's not a good tissue type match (like blood typing),the cells won't last as long as a perfect match. The cells will survive long enough to impart their growth factors into you diseased organs. But your body will eventually reject the cells after six to nine months. Nevertheless, true healing can occur with both types of stem cells and for those that can afford them, they can be lifesaving.
While the cost of umbilical cord cells is much less expensive than the fetal cells, it's still pricey, ranging from $4,000 to $25,000 as well. These costs vary from one offshore clinic to another depending on a great number of factors.
And that is where this new breakthrough stem cell treatment comes in. Not only does it cost much less than the other treatments, it never has any rejection issues. That's because this therapy doesn't use the stem cells of an aborted baby or the blood from a newborn's umbilical cord. This theraspy uses your own stem cells!
Are you interested in the how this comes about? Write to me and I will give you the complete story. It is really quite amazing and best of all it is within the budget of most anyone. So, let me hear from you.
Gluten sensitive?
By Nan Kathryn Fuchs, Ph.D.
If you're gluten-sensitive like I am, then you're going to love this news.
Like me, you're probably doing your best to avoid all forms of wheat. But guess what:
No matter how hard you try, you can still get caught by hidden sources of gluten when you least expect it.
Sure, there are more gluten-free products than ever. You have gluten-free recipes … gluten-free breads … and other gluten-free products you can bring home from the health food store.
But there's "hidden gluten" in so many other foods. Like canned soups … salad dressings … instant coffee … veggie burgers and meat substitutes. There's even gluten hiding in medicines, vitamins and cosmetics!
And when you eat out at restaurants, well, you're at the mercy of strangers. You can question the waiter all you want and get quick "yes, yes" answers. But you know he's not going to be as careful as you'd like.
Even a smidgen of flour on a cook’s hand or a splash of soy sauce in a dish can set off a painful reaction. Like cramps, diarrhea or constipation, brain fog, headaches, aches and pains in your joints. Or symptoms you don't even feel but are weakening your body.
But now there's a solution…
A new way to protect yourself
against "hidden gluten"
Now there's something that can help you be much more successful in your efforts to stay gluten-free.
What's more, this discovery can help you enjoy a night out at your favorite restaurant or at special occasions like a wedding, without having to worry about what you're eating.
Scientists have discovered something that breaks apart gluten so you can avoid the pain and discomfort you've had in the past.
The secret: Enzymes.
Enzymes, as you may know, are chemicals that dissolve things. Some enzymes, for example, dissolve the nutrients in your food.
Your body has thousands of enzymes. But one enzyme in particular has the ability to digest gluten. And here's the surprising part: research shows that people who are gluten sensitive have much less of this enzyme than other people.
This one special enzyme is called DPP-IV (dipeptidyl peptidase IV). DPP-IV can break apart the big gluten molecules that trigger painful reactions.
Scientists first tested this in the lab. They mixed gluten from whole wheat bread with a DPP-IV enzyme formula. The enzymes dramatically sped up the process of breaking apart the gluten proteins in the bread.
In fact, in one study, an enzyme combination with DPP-IV completely eliminated gluten toxicity in just 10 minutes. By "eliminating toxicity", it means it broke apart the gluten into such small pieces, that it can stop gluten from triggering a painful reaction in your stomach.
Next, scientists fed gluten proteins to animals, and gave the animals a DPP-IV enzyme formula. They discovered DPP-IV had a significant effect on the animals' ability to break down and digest these gluten-rich proteins.
And now studies using human tissue show that DPP-IV enzymes could be the next big therapy for gluten sensitivity. Beyond simply cutting out all gluten from your diet, as you must do now.
These enzymes can improve your chances of sticking to a gluten-free diet because they catch hidden or unknown gluten you might eat by accident. By neutralizing this hidden gluten, the enzymes give your intestines more time to heal. And help you better absorb the nutrients in your food.
If you are intrigued and would like to learn more, please contact me and I will give you the rest of the article. If you are gluten sensitive, I know that this will be helpful for you, otherwise, I wish you luck dealing with this problem, which I know for a fact will help you.

Dr. Vinay Goyal is an MBBS,DRM,DNB (Intensivist and Thyroid specialist) having clinical experience of over 20 years. He has worked in institutions like Hinduja Hospital , Bombay Hospital , Saifee Hospital , Tata Memorial etc.. Presently, he is heading our Nuclear Medicine Department and Thyroid clinic at Riddhivinayak Cardiac and Critical Centre, Malad (W).
The following message given by him, I feel makes a lot of sense and is important for all to know
The only portals of e ntry are the nostrils and mouth/throat. In a global epidemic of this nature, it's almost impossible to avoid coming into contact with H1N1 in spite of all precautions. Contact with H1N1 is not so much of a problem as proliferation is.
While you are still healthy and not showing any symptoms of H1N1 infection, in order to prevent proliferation, aggravation of symptoms and development of secondary infections, some very simple steps, not fully highlighted in most official communications, can be practiced (instead of focusing on how to stock N95 or Tamiflu):
1. Frequent hand-washing (well highlighted in all official communications).
2. "Hands-off-the-face" approach. Resist all temptations to touch any part of face (unless you want to eat, bathe or slap).
3. *Gargle twice a day with warm salt water (use Listerine if you don't trust salt). *H1N1 takes 2-3 days after initial infection in the throat/ nasal cavity to proliferate and show characteristic symptoms. Simple gargling prevents proliferation. In a way, gargling with salt water has the same effect on a healthy individual that Tamiflu has on an infected o ne. Don't underestimate this simple, inexpensive and powerful preventative method.
4. Similar to 3 above, *clean your nostrils at least once every day with warm salt water. *Not everybody may be good at Jala Neti or Sutra Neti (very good Yoga asanas to clean nasal cavities), but *blowing the nose hard once a day and swabbing both nostrils with cotton buds dipped in warm salt water is very effective in bringing down viral population.*
* For those who do not know, salt water is just plain NaCl, Sodium Chloride. This advice is fine in principle, but a better way to do this, is to use a 1 to 1 mix of H2O2, Hydrogen Peroxide (3%) and your favorite mouthwash. Hydrogen Peroxide is know for its bacterial killing ability and leaves no residue. You can purchase this at any drug store, or in my store for very little. For those who know how to handle chemicals, I carry a 35% concentration which can be diluted to make any concentration.
Living green and a healthy home are important things that we deal with today. Why go green? From an efficiency and a sustainability standpoint it is just common sense and courtesy. Waste Not Want Not right? When you use things efficiently, you save money, and when you reuse and recycle you are preserving resources for future generations. Remember, we are just borrowing the planet from our descendants, so wouldn't it be wise to leave something for them?
There is an ongoing debate about global warming. Some scientists state that human activity has detrimental effects on the planet, while others say that the earth itself is the major contributor due to volcanic activity. Whether you believe in global warming or not, ask yourself if the possibility of environmental consequences, are enough to make you think. We are talking about the possibility of destroying our planet for future generations. Do you even care!
Why take the chance that global warming is a hoax? Most people will agree that it is a bad idea to release toxic chemicals into the water, soil or air. Listen to your common sense and take the first steps in the right direction. If each one of us contributes just a little, we can all make a difference. Living green can make a difference.
What is it?
Our bodies function best when they are neither too acid nor too alkaline. Unfortunately most of us have become acidic due to diet, drink, and stress--both psychological and from pollution. Acidity or alkalinity is measured by "pH", which ranges from 0 on the acid side to 14 on the alkaline. Neutral is pH7. Our blood system is always working to keep itself in the narrow range of pH 7.35 to 7.45. Drinking alkaline water helps the body maintain a healthy pH level. For who are not scientifically minded, pH refers to Hydrogen potential. Mathematically speaking, values are a logrythmic expression, using logs to the base 10, so if the hydrogen ion concentration is 10-7, then the logrythm of that number would be -7. We don't like to use negative numbers, so pH, then is defined as the negative of the hydrogen ion concentration, thus, concentration of 10-7 becomes 7. Simple, huh? If you measure (calculate) a concentration of hydrogen ion concentration of, say 10-6,the pH, then is 6.0 and so on. On the acid side of neautrality, zero, is very strongly acid, while 14 is very strongly basic. It is important to note, that the pH never goes below zero, nor above 14.

Several years ago, one could never see an add which expounded the use of Soy products. Nowadays, everywhere you turn it's soy this and soy that. Soy beans were used primarily for its oil. In laboratory tests in animals, soybeans have shown to cause everything from cancer to birth defects. Until the 1930s, the only place in the country you culd find soybeans was at your local hardware store--in your paint and varnish.
Soybeans are actually a very easy crop to raise and were raised primarily for it's oil. You find soybean in many products like bar soap, where it usually blended with cotton seed oil, and margarine. but after the pressing to extract the oil, the largely powdery substance was difficult to dispose of because of it's toxicity. Even after rigorous chemical processing, soy contains substances that can possibly cause breast cancer, serious nutritional deficiencies, and even acclerated brain aging!
Many folks know of some of the benefits of eating soy. It's high in protein. Low in saturated fat. It's easy on the stomach for some folks---especially babies. And, it works as a meat and dairy substitute. But there is a dark side to this wondrous product, and possibly a dangerous side that few people know about.
To start,Unlike other legumes, soybeans aren't safe to eat when picked fresh. They're actually toxic. And in laboratory tests in animals, soybeans have been shown to cause everything fro cancer to birth defects.
Despite nearly $500,000,000.00 in funding, nobody's figured out out to remove all the toxins from soybeans. But hey, don't listen to me, there are others more knowledgeable about this than I. In your browser, IE or Fire Fox, type in Soy bean dangers and see what comes up in your search. Or, you can just click on the title of this little blog and read what comes up. Are you a believer now?
More on this subject and others equally disturbing to come later. But, if you have read this and the other articles, help me get the word out. People just need to know about these things before it is too late to do anything about it.
Medical bureaucrats and other colloidal silver naysayers routinely claim that the modern-day use of colloidal silver constitutes “risk without benefit.” They go on to claim ad nauseum that there’s no modern medical or scientific evidence for the efficacy of colloidal silver.
What the naysayers always fail
to state is that there’s a very good reason for the dearth of modern
medical and scientific research on behalf of colloidal silver:
The medical community has simply refused to conduct any significant new large-scale research on colloidal silver since the first patented antibiotic drug (penicillin) came into widespread medical usage in 1940.
In fact, since the advent of prescription antibiotic drugs, the medical community has not conducted any significant medical research on any natural substances with infection-fighting qualities, except for
those they could synthesize and turn into patentable drugs.
What They Omit
What the naysayers always fail to state is that there’s a very good reason for the dearth of modern medical and scientific research on behalf of colloidal silver:
The medical community has simply refused to conduct any significant new large-scale research on colloidal silver since the first patented antibiotic drug (penicillin) came into widespread medical usage in 1940. In fact, since the advent of prescription antibiotic drugs, the medical community has not conducted any significant medical research on any natural substances with infection-fighting qualities, except for those they could synthesize and turn into patentable drugs.
Red-Headed Step Child
In
short, even though colloidal silver was widely used by doctors and enthusiastically studied for its infection-fighting properties prior to 1940, directly after the advent of prescription antibiotic drugs colloidal silver quickly became the “red-headed step child” of the medical research community.
Except for a small handful of studies conducted at independent universities such as Brigham Young University…
…plus a number of private clinical studies conducted by some of the larger colloidal silver distributors (most of which had to be conducted outside of the United States)…
… and a number of studies conducted by foreign researchers, or by cutting edge medical and scientific researchers who have bucked the American medical establishment and conducted independent research on their own (see discussions of many of these studies at Colloidal Silver Kills Viruses and Colloidal Silver Cures MRSA)...
…colloidal silver has been largely ignored by the medical research community in this country since 1940.
Prescription antibiotic drugs have become the de facto mainstay of modern medicine in regards to treating infections, in spite of the fact that researchers admit medical science is now losing the battle against infectious microorganisms.
Medical Research Before 1940:
the Evidence for Colloidal Silver is Overwhelming
Another thing the medical bureaucrats and colloidal silver naysayers don’t like to tell you is that when they say there is “no medical or scientific evidence” of efficacy for colloidal silver, what they’re talking about is modern medical research.
It is true that they have effectively quashed modern research into the use of colloidal silver.
But what they omit is that some of the very best medical and scientific research on colloidal silver was conducted prior to the 1940 advent of penicillin.
When you look back on the old pre-1940 medical literature, you’ll find that a wide range of infectious microorganisms and ill-health conditions were routinely treated by the medical community using colloidal silver. This of course was due to the incredibly broad-spectrum infection-fighting and immune-boosting qualities of silver itself.
The following is a list of pathogens and medical conditions documented before 1940 in which patients were successfully treated using colloidal silver.
As you can see, dozens of infectious microorganisms were known to be sensitive to silver, and numerous medical conditions were known to respond to silver treatment.

Have you noticed your walking speed isn't quite as fast as it used to be? Is your endurance waning? Has your physical activity dropped off in recent years? And is your ability to grip losing strength? If you answer yes to any of these problems, it's possible you're seeing the first signs of frailty.
Fortunately, there's one vitamin that could stop the progression. And it's easy to become deficient in this vitamin, especially as you age.
The vitamin is none other than vitamin B12. A new study says elderly women with low B12 have a much higher risk of being "frail" than those with plenty of B12 activity.
The cross-sectional study followed 703 elderly women between the ages of 70 and 79 years. The researchers measured their levels of methylmalonic acid (MMA) to determine their vitamin B12 levels. MMA is a marker of vitamin B12 deficiency. If MMA is high, vitamin B12 action is low. (Your doctor can test for this marker with a normal blood test.)
Those participants with increasing serum levels of MMA had 40-60% greater odds of being "pre-frail" and a 1.66-2.33 times greater odds of being frail.

And now for for some information about Hydrogen Peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a very useful chemical. Most people do not know or understand the benefits of this very versatile substance. When it comes to hydrogen peroxide therapy there seems to be only two points of view. Supporters consider it one of the greatest healing miracles of all time. Those opposed feel its ingestion is exceptionally dangerous, and only the foolhardy could think of engaging in such behavior. Before either condemning or endorsing hydrogen peroxide, let's take a real close look at what we're dealing with.
If any substance is interesting, it's hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide should really be called hydrogen dioxide. Its chemical formula is H2O2. It contains one more atom of oxygen that does water (H20). By now everyone's aware of the ozone layer that surrounds the earth. Ozone consists of three atoms of oxygen (03). This protective layer of ozone is created when ultraviolet light from the sun splits an atmospheric oxygen molecule (02) into two single, unstable oxygen atoms. These single molecules combine with others to form ozone (03). Ozone isn't very stable. In fact, it will quickly give up that extra atom of oxygen to falling rainwater to form hydrogen peroxide (H202). (Bear with me: all this chemistry mumbo jumbo I'm going through actually will help you understand the importance of hydrogen peroxide.) It is this hydrogen peroxide in rainwater that makes it so much more effective than tap water when given to plants. With the increased levels of atmospheric pollution, however, greater amounts of H202 react with air-borne toxins and never reach the ground. To compensate for this, many farmers have been increasing crop yields by spraying them with diluted hydrogen peroxide (5 to 16 ounces of 35% mixed with 20 gallons of water per acre). You can achieve the same beneficial effect with your house plants by adding 1 ounce of 3% hydrogen peroxide (or 16 drops of 35% solution) to every quart of water you give your plants. (It can also be made into an excellent safe insecticide. Simply spray your plants with 8 ounces of 3% peroxide mixed with 8 ounces of white sugar and one gallon of water.)It is also useful for getting rid of lawn moths, which seem to come up out of nowhere and buzz around your face,when walking or playing on your lawn. Use the same proportions as above for your plants and spray over your lawn.
Earlier we mentioned it's similarity to Ozone, (O3), which is found in nature and it too, has an extra Oxygen which, as I said is quite unstable. I know some folks who are as ignorant about Ozone as they are about Hydrogen Peroxide. What would happen if you took a diluted solution of Hydrogen peroxide and sprayed it in a room? It would float in the air and land on all of your counter tops, destroying any bacteria of viruses there. Pretty neat, huh? But what if you do this a different way, suppose you had little black box which generated Ozone, had a small fan blew that Ozone in small concentration out over that room continuously. How would that work. Well, it, like the Hydrogen peroxide above it would disperse in the air and land on the surfaces, killing all the bacteria, viruses, other bugs found there and would also jump on any of these floating in the air. Think that would be kind of cool also?
There is such a device and is found here . These products use a technology called Active Pure Technology to produce the low levels of natural oxidants to clean the air.
Now, getting back to Hydrogen Peroxide, there has been a number of controversial uses for Hydrogen Peroxide, one of them being the use as an oral rinse. It has been shown that using the 3% variety in a 50/50 mix with water can reduce the number or germs in the mouth. Actually, I do this myself, or rather a slightly different version; instead of water; I use a mouth wash. Do this and you will notice that when you go to the dentist, there will be fewer dental carries (decays) found. So if you seeing your dentist at least twice a year, if for no other reason than to clean your teeth and remove that nasty plaque from around the gumline, which harbor disease laden germs causing decays and and gum disease and floss at least once a day, you are well on the road to greater dental health. But these things aren't all you should be doing, read on
