(continued from above)

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
 prize winner Dr. Otto Warburg demonstrated over 50 years ago the
 basic difference between normal cells and cancer cells. Both
 derive 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 substance
 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 uses 1/5 the energy per glucose molecule than a normal
 cell can derive from it, but that's three times the energy a
 cancer cell will get from it. The more the weak, deranged cancer
 cell 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 is 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 the 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. But he does not retract his original
 endorsement, nor deny that he still uses it personally.
 
 Over a hundreds physicians are already curing a broad assortment
 of "incurables" with this natural anti-microbial agent. This
 includes some forty or more in the US. 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 intracellularly, stimulating oxidative enzymes,
 returning elasticity to arterial walls, dilating coronary
 vessels, and regulating membrane transport. IBOM is at PO Box
 61767, Dallas/Ft. Worth, TX 75261; 817-481-9772. Dr. Farr is at
 1130 North May Ave, Oklahoma City, OK 73120; 405-752-0070 and
 799-8781.
 
 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 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@ taken
 internally, contact Walter Grotz, box 126, Delano, MN 55328;
 612-972-2144. His progress report, "ECHO", costs $1. He provided
 much of the material regarding H2O2 in this article. Another
 source is father Richard Wilhelm, Box 18, Union Rd, California
 KY 41007; 606-635-9297. 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 Federation's Pioneer
 Award in Medicine this year, 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 have
 been told there causes were hopeless.
 
 Dr. Kurt W. Donsbach at the Bio-Genesis Institute in Rosarita
 Beach, Baja Mexico (714-964-1535), 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
 those who arrive already very close to death. The Guadalahara
 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 US clinic or institution has
 ever tested intravenous H2O2 as a treatment for cancer, so any
 claim that it is not effective is not based on clinical trial,
 and amounts 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 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 only from a stream only where the water is running white,
 because that is where it gets cleansed of germs. The reason is
 that H2O2 is forming there due to its 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 snow melt, 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
 ultraviolet lamp.
 
 Raw, uncooked vegetables and fruits can 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 THE HEART OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
 
 Mother's milk contains a high amount of H2O2, especially
 colostrum, the first milk secreted after birth, which activates
 the newborns immune 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
 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.
