Hey thanks for that Pamela, I do appreciate it.
The benefits of H2O2 therapy is not in question. However... well I don't know, (thinking out loud) Douglass finds increased metabolism and vascodilation and concludes increased oxygenation of the tissue, where all I see is increased oxygen usage, and vascodilation that can in deed be achieved by a higher CO2 content of the blood. Its a pity they don't report on the testing of tissue and blood samples. Douglass goes on to say that the calculations show that the H2O2 infusion could not possibly explain the increase in metabolism, in a rather convoluted and grudging statement " He concluded, therefore, that the increase in oxygenation is due to the infused H2O2 stimulating the body's enzyme systems. So the objections being heard from scientists that only a trivial amount of oxygen could be getting to the tissues is incorrect. They are technically correct, but the results speak for themselves and vindicate Dr. Farr's landmark research." And so I stand by my statement (for what it is worth) > >The useful > >>action of H2O2 is in its oxidation rather than in its oxygenation. > >> It does not really matter how H2O2 works in treatment , other than it does, but to understand the process enables corelations to be established and a part in the puzzle of 'the whole health process' to become less murky and more able to be applied. H2O2 stimulate the formation of radical scavengers, primarily to render the H2O2 itself safe to tissue but which also react with toxins and so on. Oxygen is vitally important to human life as it is the molecule which, in reduction to water, furnishes the electrons that fuel energy production. And if the infusion of H2O2 inceases the amount of O2 able to be utilised so much the better. What is H2O2 infusion anyway, IV introduction? If one seeks tissue oxygenation, Hyperbaric oxygenation may be worth persuing also, proven effectiveness in treating gangrene, diabetic ulcers etc. Yours perplexed and quizling.
