Hydrogen Peroxide

by Jenn A.

Cleaning product. An alternative to bleach.

Hydrogen Peroxide has many uses -- it can be used to kill off all the bad buggies in your system or house which are anerobic (the good bugs are aerobic). I've seen claims that it can help reduce plantar's warts. I know people who gargle with a diluted H2O2 solution. Use it to soak your toothbrushes, or dilute and use it to clean countertops in a spray bottle (way cheaper than any other cleaner). Hydrogen peroxide is used to whiten teeth, too.

Here are some great links with more information about H2O2 --

Sanitizer-whitener

As an alternative to bleach, hydrogen peroxide serves as a less toxic, but highly useful product for both whitening and sanitizing non porous surfaces. As the owner of a 'green' cleaning business, I rely on it as a bleach-alternative. (Note: because this product is not of a neutral pH, one should take care to guard it from direct contact with skin or clothing)
