Great article: Despard and his wife, Catherine, had a vision for humanity, it’d be nice if we could get back to it…ZL

This compound was reported to work as far back as 1920. The English medical journal, Lancet, then reported that intravenous infusion was used successfully to treat pneumonia in the epidemic following World War I.

In the 1940′s Father Richard Willhelm, the pioneer in promoting its use, reported on the compound being used extensively to treat everything from bacterial-related mental illness to skin disease and polio.

Father Willhelm is the founder of “Educational Concern for Hydrogen Peroxide” (ECHO, a nonprofit organization dedicated to educating the public on the safe use and therapeutic benefits of hydrogen peroxide.)

What is this “magic” compound that is produced by the body? it is Hydrogen peroxide — and is only one of the many components that help regulate the amount of oxygen getting to your cells.

Its presence is vital for many other functions as well. It is required for the production of thyroid hormone and sexual hormones. (Mol Cell Endocrinol 86;46(2):

149-154) (Steroids 82;40(5):5690579). It stimulates the production of interferon (J Immunol 85;134(4):24492455).

It dilates blood vessels in the heart and brain (Am J Physiol 86;250 (5 pt 2): H815-821 and (2 pt 2):H157-162). It improves glucose utilization in diabetics (Proceedings of the IBOM Conference 1989, 1990, 1991).

The greater magic is that it cannot be patented… it is as cheap as “dirt”. This could be the reason your local medical practioner does not prescribe it.

Properties at a glance
Ever wondered why plants seem to do better with rainwater? It is the additional oxygen from the Hydrogen Perioxide in rainwater.

Hydrogen peroxide should really be called hydrogen dioxide. Its chemical formula is H2O2. It contains one more atom of oxygen that does water (H20).

This atom come from the Ozone in the atmosphere that isn’t very stable. In fact, it will quickly give up that extra atom of oxygen to falling rainwater to form hydrogen peroxide (H202).

This extra oxygen in water is also unstable, and It is this extra atom of oxygen that causes the plants to flourish in rainwater.

Hydrogen Peroxide is odorless and colorless, but not tasteless. When stored under the proper conditions, it is a very stable compound.

When kept in the absence of light and contaminants, it dismutates (breaks down) very slowly at the rate of about 10% a year.

When exposed to other compounds hydrogen peroxide dismutates readily. The extra oxygen atom is released leaving H20 (water). This is the action that causes hydrogen peroxide to be classified as a disinfectant.

The exta atom of oxygen is a “free radical” and is very reactive. our bodies create “free radicals” to destroy harmful bacteria, viruses, and fungi.

In fact, the cells responsible for fighting infection and foreign invaders in the body (your white blood cells) make hydrogen peroxide and use it to oxidize any offending culprits.

The intense bubbling you see when hydrogen peroxide comes in contact with a bacteria-laden cut or wound is the oxygen being released and bacteria being destroyed.

The ability of our cells to produce hydrogen peroxide is essential for life… Oxygen is not the only free radical, and in some cases other “free radicals” can harm the body.

Newer research indicates a multitude of helpful process depend on the creation of hydrogen peroxide. For example, vitamin C helps fight infections by producing hydrogen peroxide, which in turn stimulates the production of prostaglandins.

Also lactobacillus found in the colon and vagina produce hydrogen peroxide. This destroys harmful bacteria and viruses, preventing colon disease, vaginitis, bladder infections and a host of other common ailments.

It’s obvious that our oxygen needs are not being met. The air we beathe has reduce levels of oxygen because of pollution.

The chlorination process in water systems reduces the body’s ability to make maximum use of the oxgen in water.

Several of the most common ailments now affecting our population are directly related to oxygen starvation. Asthma, emphysema, and lung disease are on the rise, especially in the polluted metropolitan areas.

Cases of constipation, diarrhea, intestinal parasites and bowel cancer are all on the upswing. Periodontal disease is endemic in the adult population of this country.

Cancer of all forms continues to increase. Immune system disorders are sweeping the globe. Chronic fatigue, “Yuppie Flu” and hundreds of other strange viral diseases have begun to surface.

Ironically, many of the new “miracle” drugs and nutritional supplements used to treat the above conditions work by increasing cellular oxygen (oftentimes through H202 formation).

For example, the miracle nutrient, Coenzyme Q10, helps regulate intercellular oxidation. Organic germanium, which received considerable publicity not too long ago, also increases oxygen levels at the cellular level.

And even substances like niacin and vitamin E promote tissue oxidation through their dilation of blood vessels.
