it seems reasonable to my mind that if someone's livlihood
depends on my own unfortunate disease condition, they will
at the very least experience mixed feelings about helping
me get to a point where i no longer need them . . . a doctor
once told me: "No matter how YOU may try to spin this assessment,
YOUR DISEASE CONDITION IS MY KEY TO A MERCEDES IN THE DRIVEWAY."
---------------------------------------------------------------
i am sure most doctors do not feel that way, but i also don't
believe that the AMA is interested in anything that would make
the group they represent less necessary.
---------------------------------------------------------------
this is a cut and paste - it may not be for everyone - judge 4
yourself please.

Hydrogen peroxide is the only germicidal agent composed only of water
and oxygen. Like ozone, it kills disease organisms by oxidation as it
spreads through the patient's tissues.
This also destroys cancerous growths which are anaerobic. Nobel
Prizewinner Dr. Otto Warburg demonstrated over fifty years ago the
basic difference between normal cells and cancer cells. Both drive
energy from glucose, but the normal cell requires oxygen to combine
with the glucose, while cancer cells break down glucose without
oxygen, yielding only 1/15 the energy per glucose molecule that a
normal cell produces.
This is why cancer cells have such a huge appetite for sugar, and
also why people who consume excessive quantities of sugar tend to get
cancer more often.
The anaerobic breakdown of glucose by cancer cells forms large
amounts of lactic acid as a waste product, the same substances formed
by fermentation of lactose, as in spoiled milk. The liver converts
some of this back into glucose, in an attempt to salvage a food
source from a toxic waste.
In doing this the liver only uses 1/5 the energy per glucose molecule
that a normal cell can then derive from it, but that's three times
the energy a cancer cell will get from it. The more the weak,
deranged cancer cells multiply, the more energy is lost to the normal
cells. Thus we find that low levels of both oxygen and energy tend to
occur where cancer is present, and vice versa.
This wasteful metabolism becomes self sustaining and dominant unless
the oxygen and/or energy levels are sharply increased, or the
cancer's food source eliminated.
HEART TRANSPLANT PIONEER RECOMMENDS OXYGEN WATER
Dr. Christian Bernard, who performed the first heart transplant, said
in March 1986 that he was taking peroxide and water himself, several
times daily to reduce arthritis and aging, and he recommended it
highly at that time.
Since then he has come under heavy attack by the medical
establishment for this position, and now states that he "is not
involved" with the peroxide movement. Buthe does not retract his
original endorsement, nor deny that he still uses it personally.
Over a hundred physicians are already curing a broad assortment
of "incurables" with this natural antimicrobial agent. This includes
some forty or more in the U.S. A principal liaison to these free-
thinking physicians is Dr. Charles H. Farr, who wrote The Therapeutic
Use of Intravenous Hydrogen Peroxide.
He directs the International Bio-Oxidative Medicine Foundation, and
publishes the IBOM newsletter which contains procedural updates and
technical refinements for physicians using intravenous H2O2 therapy
on their patients. By classifying the treatments as experimental they
can get around the FDA's archaic restrictions for now, until massive
public demand and/or media exposure force official approval.
Dr. Farr summarizes the beneficial effects of H2O2 in IBOM issue #2;
these include killing bacteria, protozoa, yeast, and virus, oxidizing
lipids from arterial walls, increasing oxygen tension intracellular,
stimulating oxidative enzymes, returning elasticity to arterial
walls, dilating coronary vessels, and regulating membrane transport.
H2O2 CAN BE SELF ADMINISTERED
The oral and skin applications offer the option of home treatment as
no blood needs to be drawn, and hydrogen peroxide is cheap and
plentiful. Keep it diluted though; in high concentrations it can
irritate sensitive skin and induce vomiting when ingested.
(Veterinarians routinely give common 3% H2O2 to animals that have
swallowed poison, to make them throw it up.)
The starting dosage is one ounce of .5% (1/200) H2O2 in water, and
some will find they need to start with less. As the peroxide contacts
pathogens in the stomach it liberates free oxygen, so those with high
levels of virus and streptococcus in their stomachs may feel slight
nausea while the reaction is occurring.
The dosage is increased by an ounce per day, up to five ounces on the
fifth day, then finally up to five ounces three times daily for a
week (or until disease is no longer present). Then the dosage is
tapered back down over a five-week period.
Food-grade or Re-agent (these are 35%, dangerous if undiluted) is
better for internal use since the common USP 3% H2O2 contains small
amounts of chemical stabilizers and other impurities. It can still be
used if food grade is unavailable; it just isn't' as pure.
An alternate dosage regimen uses three drops of 35% H2O2 in a glass
of water, three times a day, which is then increased by a drop per
dose, per day, up to 25 drops per dose in extreme cases. Candidiasis
victims should start at one drop per dose, and build their tolerance
gradually. Some find the taste rather bleachy and unpleasant, and may
wish to chase it with plain water. It can also be mixed with fruit
juice, and citrus juices in particular cover the taste pretty well.
Adding seven drops of 35% H2O2 to a gallon of drinking water and
shaking well purifies it and gives it a pleasant waterfall-like
flavor.
For more dosage details and extensive references on H2O2 to a gallon
of drinking water and shaking well purifies it and gives it a

These gentlemen have continued the research initiated by Dr. Edward
Carl Rosenow (1875-1966). They have located over 4000 peer-reviewed
medical articles on the applications of hydrogen peroxide, some
dating back to the 1800's.
They received the National Health Federations Pioneer Award in
Medicine three years ago for this ongoing research. Walter Grotz, in
particular, has been touring and lecturing extensively on the
benefits of self-administered H2O2, literally saving lives wherever
he goes, and bringing hope to people who had been told their cases
were hopeless.
Dr. Kurt W. Donsbach at the Bio-Genesis Institute in Rosarita Beach,
Baja Mexico (619-428-8585), has achieved a remission rate exceeding
70% in over 300 patients, at last count, most of whom had been
previously told they were beyond hope, and had "tried everything
else." Bio-oxidative therapies are now applied to all cases that
arrive at this clinic, and all respond except for some of those who
arrive already very close to death. The Guadalajara Medical School,
Mexico's largest, is initiating their own tests this summer, and will
add it to their curriculum upon verification.
As Dr. Donsbach has pointed out, no U.S. clinic or institution has
ever tested intravenous H2O2 as a treatment for cancer, so any claim
that is not effective is not based on clinical trial, and amount to
willful disinformation.
The Gerson Institute and La Gloria Clinic in Mexico are also using
hydrogen peroxide therapies on their patients, after the staff tested
it on themselves and found it to be beneficial.
HYDROGEN PEROXIDE IN NATURE
Hydrogen peroxide occurs naturally in rain and snow, from atmospheric
ozone, and in mountain streams where rushing water is continuously
aerated. Most of us learned at an early age to drink from a stream
only where the water's running white, because that's where it gets
cleansed of germs. The reason is that H2O2 is forming there due to
the water's rapid agitation, and that's what kills any harmful
microbes present.
By just shaking a bottle of water vigorously for a while you can tuck
enough extra oxygen into it to form detectable amounts of H2O2,
improving its purity, flavor and vitality.
It turns out that the spring waters at Lourdes, France, long
recognized for their remarkable healing properties, are very high in
natural hydrogen peroxide. The spring is fed by high-altitude
snowmelt, so the snow apparently absorbs unusually large quantities
of ozone on its way from the upper atmosphere. Other less-known high
altitude springs are said to be likewise effective.
Similar benefits can be obtained in a swimming pool or hot tub, by
discarding the chlorination system and simply pouring in H2O2 or by
bubbling ozone through the water. One simple method of making pool-
grade ozone is to pump air past an enclosed ultra-violet lamp.
Raw, uncooked vegetables and fruits contain natural hydrogen
peroxide. Cooking drives off the extra oxygen. Fresh fruit juices are
well known for their blood-cleansing and revitalizing capabilities,
particularly when they are not combined with other foods; this is
largely due to the H2O2 they contain. Reconstituted frozen juices
have much less, and are no longer "alive," thus they are not nearly
as effective.
H2O2 IS HEART OF IMMUNE SYSTEM
Mother's milk contains a high amount of H2O2, especially colostrum,
the first milk secreted after birth, which activates the newborn's
immune system. H2O2 is the first line of the body's defense systems,
and key to many other metabolic processes.
Under conditions of optimum health, H2O2 is produced by the body's
defense systems, and key to many other metabolic processes.
Under conditions of optimum health, H2O2 is produced by the body's
immune system in whatever amounts are needed to quickly destroy any
invading hostile organisms. It is made by combining water in the body
with the free oxygen that is supposed to be constantly available.
When the body is oxygen-starved, it can't produce enough H2O2 to wipe
out invading pathogens, which can then get the upper hand and cause
visible disease.

OXYGEN BOOST IS KEY TO OTHER HEALING METHODS
When penicillin is effective against infection, it is largely due to
the formation of bactericidal amounts of H2O2, when glucose is
oxidized by O2 in the presence of penicillium notatin. (General
Biochemistry, Fruton & Simmonds 577.1 F944 p. 339)
Much has been made of the healing properties of Interferon, but it is
unbelievably expensive. However, much of its effectiveness is
apparently due to the fact that it stimulates production of H2O2 and
other oxygen intermediates, which are a key factor in reactivating
the immune system. (Journal of Interferon Research Vol. 3, #2,1983 p.
143-151.)
Thus Interferon may turn out to be simply a very elaborate way to
accomplish essentially the same thing as the H2O2 regimen.
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) has long been recognized as essential to
the proper use of oxygen by the cells. Dr. Linus Pauling has
demonstrated that large doses of Vitamin C are effective against
cancer. The mainstream medical community still has not acknowledged
this discovery, let alone put it to use, despite Dr. Pauling's
credentials. As it turns out, vitamin C actually creates extra H2O2
in the body.
Organic Germanium (bis-carboxyethyl germanium sesquioxide) is gaining
increasing recognition as a potent healing substance, primarily
through the work of Dr. Kazuhiko Asai. This compound directly
increases the body's oxygen supply, as it contains a great deal of
oxygen in a form that can be easily assimilated. (See Miracle Cure;
Organic Germanium by Dr. Assai, Japan Publications, Inc., Tokyo and
New York.)
Taheebo (aka Pau D'Arco or Lapacho Colorado) is a tree that grows in
the Andes and fixes high concentrations of oxygen in crystalline form
into its inner bark. The bark has been used for centuries by the
native peoples of the area to prevent and reverse illnesses, and it
is one reason why they do not get cancer.
In recent years it has become popular in the U.S., and it gets by the
FDA as an "herbal tea" whose distributors wisely make no medical
claims for it. Again, much of its effectiveness is apparently due to
its high oxygen content, released in solution when brewed as a tea.
CAUSES OF OXYGEN DEPLETION
There are several very common practices that drop a person's oxygen
level far below where it should ideally be. At sea level, 20% of the
atmosphere is supposed to be oxygen, but city air goes down as low as
10%, due to smog and removal of trees. Air that tastes bad induces a
tendency to breathe shallowly, getting even less oxygen to the blood.
So does lack of exercise.
The carbon monoxide (CO) in smog does not normally occur in nature in
much quantity since it's formed by incomplete combustion of carbon
compounds. It is electrically unbalanced, so it seeks to bond with
any available oxygen to form the more stable carbon dioxide (CO2).
Those who breathe too much carbon monoxide tend to die fast or slow
depending on the concentration. It strips oxygen molecules from the
blood to form CO2, which the body can't use and must exhale, at least
until its oxygen runs out. The fact that the body considers CO2, a
waste product, by the way, doesn't say much for carbonated beverages.
Tap water is very low in oxygen, having had no opportunity to be
aerated during its journey through the pipes, and being loaded down
with chlorine and various contaminants. Since cooking drives the
extra oxygen out of vegetables, if one's diet is mostly cooked or
processed foods, there's yet another oxygen source lost.
EATING FASTING AND OXYGEN BALANCE
Overeating is so common in the U.S. it's considered "normal". One
cause is the widespread use of oral antibiotics. While destroying the
target germs, these drugs also kill off one's intestinal flora, which
are needed for healthy digestion. With these friendly bacteria gone,
digestive efficiency plummets.
As a result, the sensation of hunger comes more often and lasts
longer, as the body tries to compensate for ineffective digestion by
increasing the amount consumed.
Even just eating daily, without ever giving the gastrointestinal
tract a rest, loads down the blood with toxins and impurities,
especially uric acid crystals. Under a microscope these resemble tiny
coffin-lids, interestingly enough, another clue to our Creator's
whimsical sense of humor.
When the waste products exceed the cleansing capacity of the kidneys,
the blood ends up having to just haul it around the body and stash it
wherever possible. These toxins literally take up so much room in the
blood cells that the cells can't take on enough oxygen when they pass
through the lungs. the blood's primary function of picking up and
distributing oxygen gets blocked by overuse of the garbage hauling
function.
Fasting restores healthy by giving the overloaded blood cells a
chance to dump the toxins and inert matter through normal organs of
elimination at a rate they can handle, instead of through the skin,
as in acne, or other inappropriate places. If the fast is long
enough, accumulated residues in the body are also scoured out and
expelled, giving a considerable spiritual resurgence once all the
backlog is cleared away.
While the debris is flushing out, various toxic reactions may come
and go. Once the blood is cleansed the red corpuscles have a lot more
room for oxygen molecules, the oxygen saturation of the tissues is
high, and health and energy are boosted considerably. Each breath now
gives more life than it was able to in the blood's earlier state.
Most long-lived native peoples, who are not affected by our common
diseases, either include fasting as a regular part of their yearly
food cycles, or eat much less overall, than industrialized peoples.
Today many Americans are existing at such high levels of toxicity,
that their toxic reactions when attempting to fast can seem intense
enough to make them start eating again before any serious cleansing
can be accomplished.
Fortunately one can partially bypass the lungs and get the blood
oxygen level back up, by taking oxygenated water internally and
through the skin. Several weeks of detoxification with this regimen
will also make it much easier to fast without discomfort, if one
chooses. It reduces appetite, logically enough, to a level more in
line with the body's actual needs.
The bacteria that aid digestion are not killed by oral use of H2O2,
as long as it's diluted properly.
OXYWATER MAY EVEN CURE STUPIDITY
Perhaps the greatest potential benefit is the reversal of the slight
brain damage caused by long-term oxygen depletion, which can be
observed in the "average" human, and is sometimes not all that
slight.
It's well known that after about 9 minutes of no oxygen, from
drowning or whatever, you can kiss your brain goodbye. But the
implications of constant gradual oxygen starvation in our cities
somehow escape notice, despite the tiredness, depression,
irritability, poor judgment and health problems affecting so many
citizens.
Increasing the oxygen supply to the brain and nervous system will
reverse these conditions. The oxywater regimen improves alertness,
reflexes, memory and apparently intelligence, and may offer the
elderly a new weapon against senility and related disorders.
Alzheimer's and Parkinson's are reported to be responding to it.
Alcoholics who start taking H2O2 soon lose interest in alcohol, and
the thirst does not come back. Look up what alcohol does with your
blood oxygen and your ability to use it, and you'll see why.
One possible spin-off of a coming major increase in the blood oxygen
supply to human brains is that various short-sighted oxygen-depleting
activities such as deforestation, and other unintelligent practices,
should fade from the scene. Americans especially, will have an
opportunity to outgrow many stupid things.
It's strange that the common drug aspirin "stops pain" by interfering
with the nervous systems ability to use oxygen, in the
electrochemical reactions needed to transmit impulses.
Though maybe it's not that strange, considering that the Bayer
Company which originated it was a subsidiary of IG Farben, the German
chemical conglomerate that is famous for, among other things,
developing and mass-producing the lethal gas Zyklon-Bk specifically
for exterminations at Nazi death camps.
ECONOMIC INERTIA
Dr. Terry McGrath, the CEO at Medizone, confirmed that hydrogen
peroxide would in principle act much like ozone in destroying the
AIDS virus, but pointed out that it's never likely to be tested and
proven in the laboratory.
There's simply n economic incentive, since it's an unpatentable
process and offers no more commercial returns than most other natural
remedies. So it's completely up to the individual patients and
concerned citizens to push these options out into the open,
immediately, before various companies get too financially committed
to the assumption that AIDS (or any other disease) will continue to
spread and be incurable.
This is as good a place as any for the FDA-required
disclaimer: "Information given here is for research and educational
purposes only and is not intended to prescribe treatment."
VERTERINARY AND AGRICULTURAL APPLICATIONS
Humans aren't the only life form that benefits from compensation for
their oxygen-deficient air, water and/or lifestyle. H2O2 in animals
drinking water, not enough to taste unpleasant, knocks out a growing
list of illnesses.
Locally, cats have gotten rid of their feline leukemia and Chlamydia,
and are back to their old energetic slapstick selves. Distemper in
dogs has been reversed with H2O2, and a growing number of farmers are
applying it to their livestock to cut losses from disease and
infected wounds.
Plants grow better with an ounce of 3% H2O2 per quart of water
they're given. Spray the solution on their leaves as well. Seeds
germinate faster, with bigger sprouts, when they are first soaked in
1 ounce of 3% H2O2 to a pint of water. Instead of cutting trees that
are diseased or otherwise struggling, spray them with H2O2 and water
(1 part 3% to 32 parts water).
WHY ISN'T THIS ALREADY IN USE?
The obvious question is, if hyper oxygenation is so simple and
effective, why has it taken so long to discover it? Ozone is hardly
new and hydrogen peroxide has been on the market for over a century.
Why aren't all the doctors already using it? How come this story
isn't all over the major news outlets?
Turning the question around helps clarify the problem. Just exactly
what would happen if a cure was discovered that was completely
effective against the vast majority of diseases, ridiculously cheap
and plentiful, and in most cases could be self administered without a
physician?
Would the current medical establishment welcome a breakthrough that
could render 98% of all drugs, testing and disease related surgery
obsolete? What would the response be of the pharmaceutical
industrialists, hospital chain owners, health insurance moguls, AMA,
and FDA?
Would you expect to read of hear such an announcement from any
medical journal or media outlet owned by people financially committed
to the medical status quo, which is practically all of them? How many
want to help their own occupation become unnecessary?
And if the cure had already been suppressed once, wouldn't the
possible blame for allowing people to die without it provide even
more incentive to continue keeping the whole thing quite?
All right then. This is precisely the situation that exists, and the
cure has indeed been around for ages. It has been independently
reported effective against virtually every disease at one time or
another, in thousands of public-domain medical articles, which had
never been collected and correlated until recently. And it is so
simple and basic that concealing it from most physicians and the
general public has required a tremendous smokescreen or artificial
complications, narrow specializations, symptomatic classifications
and user hostile treatments.
If this is so, it follows that the more profit-fixated elements of
the medical establishment will not be too thrilled about the recent
surge of interest in oxygen therapies. The drug industry has expanded
enormously since WWII, while America's level of health has dropped
from the world's highest to the lowest among the industrialized
nations. It does look as if the bottom line has been money and not
health, for a long time.
The battle for the future of medicine, between Nature's truth and
lucrative lies, is about to really heat up. We can expect to see
disinformation articles and newscasts with persuasive medical
experts, some of whom will even believe what they're saying, warning
of the dangers of hydrogen peroxide, ozone, and even regular oxygen.
These reports will attempt to blur the distinction between using
therapeutic dosages at safe dilutions, and the harmful effects of
excessive concentrations. Plenty of grisly examples are available, of
what happens when various tissues are over-oxidized.
Anti-oxygenation propaganda pieces will probably not mention that
over the years the FDA has approved H2O2 as a skin antiseptic at full
3% strength, as a hair bleaching agent at 6%, and for internal use as
an additive to milk and in aseptic long shelf life packaging.
Nor are they likely to acknowledge that many European countries use
ozone and H2O2 in their cities water supply, and that they enjoy much
better health than in the U.S. And they will be unable to truthfully
cite any examples of people who were harmed by using H2O2 in the
correct demonstrated therapeutic concentrations.
It is vital for Americans to realize the current economic dynamics
don't allow the businessmen in charge of the health industry any
incentive at all, to make people permanently healthy and lose them as
customers. It's the same reason why the energy conglomerates do not
encourage citizens to become energy-self-sufficient, the Pentagon has
no incentive to stop wars, and the American Psychiatric Association
sees no advantage to ending mental illness.
Fortunately, the majority of physicians really do want to see their
patients get well. They also wouldn't mind regaining the respect and
admiration with which physicians were once more widely regarded.
When it comes down to a choice between saving lives and protecting
profits, most will be brave enough to overhaul their medical belief
systems, discard obsolete methodologies, and basically tell the
pharmaceutical conglomerates to go shove it. The rest will simply get
left behind.
SOURCES FOR FOOD-GRADE HYDROGEN PEROXIDE
Most pharmacists have never even heard of it, so it's usually a waste
of time to ask them. A number of chemical supply houses have 35% H2O2
available; check your local directories and call a few.
Under FDA pressure, DuPont and possible other major chemical
companies have recently issued warnings to their distributors, not to
sell hydrogen peroxide to people who want it for healing purposes. So
when you inquire, if they ask what you want it for, it will
unfortunately be necessary to lie.
If you say you want it as a cleaning agent, that's at least pretty
close to the truth.
Several physicians quietly sell it through the mail, but they aren't
the same ones promoting its healing properties, for obvious FDA-
related reasons. A good source in California, though he can ship it
anywhere, is Dr. A.J. McDonald, at P.O. Box 775, Lodi, CA 95240; 209-
368-8681/12$/pint.
Your best move would be to share this information with owners of
health-food stores in your area. Call them and ask if they have food-
grade H2O2 (some already do) and tell them why you want it and how it
works. Encourage them to carry it and give them Dr. McDonald's
address if they don't seem inclined to track down a local source.
Clean room-grade 30% H2O2 (used for cleaning in computer rooms since
it is a powerful disinfectant and leaves no residue when it
evaporates) is reported to be just as pure as food grade and much
cheaper.
Check with labs that make "wafer fabrication" chemicals, or contact
the manufacturers of silicon chips and other computer parts, and the
data processing complexes that might use it in their clean rooms, and
ask where they buy it. The more sources become known, the harder it
will be for anyone to make it unavailable.
GET THE WORD OUT
Write your elected officials, send copies of this information, and
point out what will happen to a politician whose constituents learn
he knew of a cure for cancer and AIDS but didn't tell them about it.
Call in on radio talk shows and share the good news, or send copies
to their reporters and program directors, especially at listener-
supported stations as these are less likely to suppress it. Don't
assume your local papers have already heard of this; write letters to
editors, and/or send copies of this report. Tack it up on every
bulletin board you see, and post it on all relevant computer bulletin
boards.
If you know teachers, physicians, or health officials who can still
think for themselves, tell them about this and give the references.
Notify your local police officials that hyper-oxygenation gives them
a way of making sure they'll be safe from infection due to contact
with AIDS carriers. If you're really feeling bold, walk into the
local hospital's cancer wards and hand a copy of this report to
anyone who can still read, and slip out the back door before their
doctors walk in. Share it with anyone you know who has a health
problem, even a minor one; H2O2 apparently works on everything from
acne to warts.
Above all, stop buying the idea that cancer, AIDS, and
other "terminal" illnesses are automatic death sentences. When you
hear some celebrity you like is sick or dying of this or that, look
up their mailing address in Who's Who or whatever, and mail them this
information. If the address is for an agent, who are notorious for
blocking attempted communications to their client, you might include
a cover letter, stating that the enclosed vital news is also being
sent to their client's family members, and that if he or she learns
through them that there was life-saving information sent but held up
at the agent's, that agent will be out of a job. Act like you have
the clout it takes to make a difference, and you soon will.
Major scientific breakthroughs go through three stages; first they
are ridiculed, then violently opposed, and finally they are accepted
as having been self-evident all along. Let's see if we can short-cut
those first two stages a bit, OK?

kindest possible regards, respectfully submitted.
