Before you decide on how you can plan to self-administer hydrogen peroxide therapy,it is critical that you understand the different grades of hydrogen peroxide available. The grades are

• 35% Food-Grade: This is the only grade of hydrogen peroxide recommended for internal use. It’s commonly used in the production of dairy products like milk and eggs. It is also sprayed onto the foil lining of products like juice and acts as an antiseptic. You can purchase this formula in pints, quarts, gallons, and drums. Contact your local alternative drugstore for more information on where to find 35% food-grade hydrogen peroxide. There are also several sources you can find on the Internet by typing the key phrase “35% food grade hydrogen peroxide.”Important note : The 35% strength needs to be diluted before being taken internally.

• 3% Pharmaceutical Grade: This is the hydrogen peroxide that’s available at your local drugstore. It is for external use only and should not be ingested because it contains a number of stabilizers including acetanilide, phenol, sodium stagnate, and tetrasodium phosphate.

• 6% Beautician Grade: This hydrogen peroxide grade is used by hair stylists to bleach hair. It is not to be ingested because it contains stabilizers as well as bleach.
• 30% Reagent grade: This has uses in a number of scientific experiments, but it contains stabilizers and is not for internal use.

30 – 32% Electronic Grade: This hydrogen peroxide is used to clean electronics and is not for internal use

• 35% Technical Grade: This hydrogen peroxide is similar to Reagent grade, but it is more concentrated and contains phosphorus to neutralize chlorine in the water that is added to dilute it.

• 90%: This is used as a source of oxygen in rocket fuel.

If you plan to ingest hydrogen peroxide as part of your therapy,clearly,you will want to use only the 35% food grade formula
