I read recently that one of the destructive effects of cancer cells is
that they do produce H202, which damages surrounding tissue. This
info. came in a long essay about cancer therapies and nutrition. It
was not directly concerned with using H202.

Hi Julie,
I'm surprised to find that some people recommend H2O2 as a health
cure. The reason for the gag response is hydrogen peroxide is part
of the respiration cycle. It is toxic and the body tries to get rid
of it as soon as possible. Naturally, it doesn't want more, so you
gag when you try to drink it.
As with anything, you have to sift through the available evidence
and make up your own mind. I attach little importance to articles
written by someone trying to sell something.
If I can find independant articles that seem to say the same general
thing, I feel that carries more weight. In the case of H2O2, there
is a wealth of information that indicates it may be harmful. Here
are some links I found:
