Making a 3% Hydrogen Peroxide Solution

There are times when it would be convenient for you to keep a 3% strength food-grade hydrogen peroxide on hand because at this strength, it has many uses that produce countless benefits (in addition to the benefits that are derived from the dosing regimen described earlier). This should not be confused with the 3% hydrogen peroxide that you can find at your local drugstore because that pharmaceutical grade is for external use only and should not be ingested.

In order to make a 3% solution that can be ingested, you must start with 35% food grade hydrogen peroxide and dilute it according to the way it will be used. To start, pour one ounce of 35% food-grade hydrogen peroxide into a pint jar, and add 11 ounces of distilled water. This will yield 12 ounces of 3% hydrogen peroxide. Make sure you label it “3% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide” to distinguish it from the 35% strength. You can use this diluted solution in a variety of ways, and you may find it convenient to store the unused portion in the refrigerator. If you wish to ingest hydrogen peroxide, you will need to dilute the solution further. However, absorbing 3% hydrogen peroxide through the mucous membranes, the lungs, and the skin produces many remarkable health benefits.


The table above provides a suggested schedule for your hydrogen peroxide therapy. Each dose takes less than 1 minute to administer. Use only distilled water to dilute hydrogen peroxide; do not use water that has been chlorinated. The drops should be diluted in 6 to 8 ounces of water. When you have completed the 23-day regimen in the table, gradually decrease the dosage by one drop a day until you get to the maintenance dose of 3 drops (diluted in 6-8 ozs of distilled water) 3 times a day.

In addition to diluting hydrogen peroxide with chlorinefree (preferably distilled) water, it is important that you take it on an empty stomach. The best times are at least one hour before mealtime and/or at least three hours after mealtime.

Hydrogen peroxide will react with food’s bacteria in your stomach, and the result is excess foaming, nausea and possibly vomiting. If you become nauseated at a certain dosage level, keep taking that dose for a few days until you feel comfortable.

Although it is not common, you may experience symptoms including nausea, fatigue, diarrhea and cold or flu-like symptoms as your body attempts to expel large amounts of dead cells. This phase is what is referred to as the healing crisis, which is the body’s reaction to the removal of disease-causing or toxic conditions. It doesn’t happen in the majority of cases, but some may experience it, as well as a range of other minor symptoms.

Do not stop your regimen if you experience these symptoms; you may be uncomfortable for a day or two, but it means the therapy is working.

When you have completed the 23-day regimen in the table, gradually decrease the dosage by one drop a day until you get to the maintenance dose of 3 drops (diluted in 6-8 ozs of distilled water) 3 times a day.

If you have a serious condition, you may wish to try taking 25 drops three times daily for one to three weeks during the beginning portion of the maintenance phase before tapering down to 25 drops two times per day for up to six months. Otherwise, you can reduce the maintenance schedule to between 5 and 15 drops based on how you are feeling.

Three tablespoons of a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution and a quart of chlorine-free (preferably distilled) water can be used as an enema or douche, which will ward off “bad” bacteria. It will kill anaerobic bacteria in the rectum and colon and bacterial infections and yeast in the vagina.

Hydrogen peroxide can also be used at 3% strength or diluted with warm water as a foot soak for athlete’s foot and diabetes-related ailments.
Absorbing Hydrogen Peroxide Through the Skin
A particularly simple way to absorb hydrogen peroxide through your skin is to bathe in it. Try adding 1 to 8 pints of the 3% solution to a bathtub full of warm water. The water will cause your pores to open, allowing your body to absorb some of the hydrogen peroxide. You may not wish to try this method close to bedtime, however, because the boost of oxygen may energize and keep you awake. Some people have used hydrogen peroxide baths to rid themselves of boils, fungus or other skin infections. (Other people have also used a pint of 35% food-grade hydrogen in a tub of water, instead of 1 to 8 pints of the 3% solution, and have reported a host of other benefits including prematurely gray hair returning to its original color.) A foot bath using full strength 3% hydrogen peroxide has been used as an effective treatment for athlete’s foot.
Diabetics have been relieved of circulation problems by soaking their feet for half an hour in a foot bath consisting of 1 pint of 3% hydrogen peroxide and a gallon of warm water.   Another topical use of 3% hydrogen peroxide (in addition to its common use as an antiseptic for cuts and wounds) is as a remedy for acne and a variety of other skin conditions. Applying 3% hydrogen peroxide full strength to the affected areas once or twice a day with a cotton ball or swab has shown surprisingly rapid results.
