Diamond brand 3% H2O2 doesn't have additives.
It's not likely any official will tell you it's OK to ingest a corrosive
substance unless it's packaged as an approved treatment or product.
Food Grade just means that the product meets standards for use *on* food
or food preparation surfaces [not *as* food] and doesn't mean there are no
additives so long as any additives are "approved" under the definitions of
food grade.
If there are additives it will say so on the label but might not identify
what they are, otherwise it will say "water, H2O2"
It also doesn't mean that any other grade doesn't meet those
standards. Food grade does, any other grade might...and probably does.
After all...
H2o2 ain't "rocket science". [Oops, yes it is. Spray some 100% on silver
and see what happens. Makes a pretty good thruster. ]

6% is used for bleaching hair. I am at an understanding it is not food

Looking for information regarding h2o2. I have Hydrogen Peroxide 20
volume 6% w/v in a brown glass bottle bought over the counter at a
pharmacy. Although there is nothing printed on the bottle regarding
'stabilisers' having been added, and having an expiry date of 2010
printed on the lable, I am wondering if this product is suitable, in
diluted form, to be used in conjunction with CS for ingestion
purposes. I am aware that 'Food Grade' is the catch phrase but wonder if
those two words would, in fact, appear on a bottle or if this product can
be interpreted as 'Food Grade'.
I also have a 3% solution which is in a plastic bottle but states that
stabilisers have been added, (I am in no way thinking of ingesting this
product though, so don't fret there, external use only), but as the 6%
has nothing stated on it regarding stabilisers I was wondering if this
one would be considered 'Food Grade'.
As a 'throw away' question, I have asked several pharmacies if their
product can be ingested and get different answers from each one, although
I would never consider ingesting the 3% one anyway, at any time. Just
another instance of a lack of credible information one can rely
on. Perhaps someone could tell me how they define 'Food Grade', ie; is
'Food Grade' actually stated on the label?
