What is Hydrogen Peroxide IV Therapy?
Hydrogen peroxide therapy (H202) is an intravenous therapy in which hydrogen peroxide is infused into the circulatory system through a vein in the arm.
In its pure form, it is a colorless and odorless liquid, comprised of two hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms, an arrangement that makes the substance highly reactive. Presently, there are over 6,100 articles in scientific literature dating back to 1920 on the clinical applications of hydrogen peroxide.
It is well known that antibiotics are chemicals kill the beneficial bacteria within your intestines and upset the delicate balance of the intestinal terrain. Fortunately, there are other options to treat common conditions without toxic side effects.
Hydrogen peroxide, for example, can be used to treat conditions such as cold, flu and sinus infection, and many more. Hydrogen peroxide is a more natural option as our bodies automatically produce H202 constantly as part of metabolism.
There are units in certain white blood cells called “peroxisomes,” which produce H2O2. These white cells then engulf bacteria that cause disease and mix them together with these peroxisomes. They both then disappear as the singlet oxygen from H2O2 destroys the bacteria or virus.
Hydrogen peroxide therapy uses hydrogen peroxide to help cells fight off viruses, infections, and diseases. Hydrogen peroxide, also known as H2O2, is a byproduct of oxygen metabolization. It provides oxygen throughout the body as it is broken down into water and oxygen.
It is thought that hydrogen peroxide therapy improves immune system functions by stimulating the production of white blood cells. Hydrogen peroxide therapy also has cardiovascular benefits by dissolving cholesterol and calcium deposits through oxidation and dilating blood vessels to further increase oxygenation.
​Hydrogen peroxide therapy can also be used for detoxification purposes. It oxidizes biological waste products and industrial toxins to allow the kidney and liver to remove them more efficiently.
Mechanism of Action for Hydrogen Peroxide IV Therapy
Bio-oxidative medicine is the addition of oxygen directly to the body's tissues in the form of singlet oxygen (lone oxygen atoms) in a highly reactive state.
In living systems, oxygen (as O2) is transported by hemoglobin, a protein found in red blood cells. This is a highly efficient way of conducting oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues and ensuring it does not react with anything along the way.
Because it is bound by hemoglobin, it cannot react to anything else until it is released by the hemoglobin (which then picks up carbon dioxide and transports it to the lungs).
In bio-oxidative medicine, oxygen is introduced directly into the body as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) or ozone (O3). Although ozone is used safely and with great benefit throughout Europe and in many other parts of the world, the medical establishment in the United States refuses to recognize it as a valid therapy. However, new studies are underway in this country. Luckily, hydrogen peroxide is not treated this way, even though it is an equally powerful oxidative approach.
The chemical reaction looks like this:
H2O2 becomes H2O + O-
This is chemical shorthand to indicate that in the body, hydrogen peroxide is converted to water and singlet oxygen. This singlet oxygen at the end of this reaction is a powerful oxidizing agent. It is the active agent in hydrogen peroxide therapy.
Hydrogen Peroxide IV Drip Protocol
In IV H2O2 therapy, Hydrogen peroxide is infused into the circulatory system through a vein in the arm. It drips in over ninety minutes.
Five ccs of pharmaceutical-grade, three-percent hydrogen peroxide are put in 500 ccs of five percent glucose in water as a carrier solution.
Two grams of magnesium chloride are added, and a small amount of manganese to prevent vein sclerosis.
How Hydrogen Peroxide IV Therapy Works
During a hydrogen peroxide IV infusion, hydrogen peroxide (H202) will enter the circulatory system directly through a vein. Because the human body constantly produces hydrogen peroxide – a clear, odorless liquid – as a byproduct of cellular metabolism, this IV therapy can naturally prevent and treat colds, sinus infections, pulmonary issues, and more.
When introduced into the bloodstream, hydrogen peroxide turns biological waste products and toxins into static substances. Because of this inertness, the kidneys and liver can do their part to remove harmful substances from the body.
While treatment times vary depending on the amount of hydrogen peroxide used, this type of IV therapy usually takes about 90 minutes.
