I made a mistake, I said chlorine, I meant hydrogen peroxide for water treatment. -----Original Message----- From: badges-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:badges-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of C D Rowsell Sent: Sunday, May 29, 2011 4:23 PM To: badges@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Badges - Re: How to Use Rubbing Alcohol to Kill Nail Fungus I have been involved in water treatment systems that are sold in Asia, which primarily using Chlorine. Note that NASA uses the stuff as a liquid rocket fuel oxidizer. Beware, this is REALLY nasty stuff in the concentration they use. Remember the space shuttle explosion, that was one of the materials in the external fuel tank. I use the 3% stuff in combination with baking soda to brush my teeth for years. This was recommended to me by my dentist (who was a prosthodontist) to treat gum disease. I have not had any gum problems or tooth decay ever since either. You should NEVER swallow the 3%, more for the fact it has been stabilized than the h2o2. If you buy the good stuff shown on the h2o2 site, you MUST properly dilute it (with distilled water not tap water) as H2o2 is basically an oxygen bleach. There are all kinds of uses for h2o2, which has replaced chlorine for all food containers.

I understand laser usually clears up chronic cases in a couple of treatments and no drugs. If you can get it early, alcohol or peroxide are a heck of a lot cheaper. If you use peroxide, I would think 6% is the better bet than off the shelf 3% stuff. I believe here in the US you have to ask the pharmacist to sell you 6%. (I get 6% if I need it when I am in Asia, so I have no idea about getting it in the US.
