Clorox vs Peroxide

Clorox vs Peroxide VERY interesting and inexpensive.

                VS


This was written by Becky Ransey of Indiana (a doctor's Wife), and I want to share it with you.

She was over recently for coffee and smelled the bleach
I was using to clean my toilet and counter tops. This is what she told me. 'I would like to tell you of the benefits of that Plain little ole bottle of 3% peroxide you can get for under $1.00 at any drug store. What does bleach cost?

My husband has been in the medical field for over 36 years, And most doctors don't tell you about
peroxide. Have you ever smelled bleach in a doctor's office? NO!!! Why? because it smells, and it is not healthy! Ask the nurses who work in the doctor's offices, and ask them if they use bleach at home. They are wiser and know better!

Did you also know bleach was invented in the late 40's? It's chlorine, folks! And it was used to kill our Troops. Peroxide was invented during WWI in the 20's. It was used to save and help cleanse the needs of our troops and hospitals.

Please think about this:
1. Take one capful (the little white cap that comes with the bottle) and hold in your mouth for 10 minutes daily, then spit it out. (I do it when I bathe.) No more canker sores, and your teeth will be whiter without expensive pastes. Use it instead of mouthwash.

2. Let your toothbrushes soak in a cup of peroxide to keep them free of germs.

3. Clean your counters and table tops with peroxide to kill germs and leave a fresh smell. Simply put a little on your dishrag when you wipe, or spray it on the counters.

4. After rinsing off your wooden cutting board, pour peroxide on it to kill salmonella and other bacteria.

5. I had fungus on my feet for years until I sprayed a 50/50 mixture of peroxide and water on them (especially the toes) every night and let dry.

6. Soak any infections or cuts in 3% peroxide for five to ten minutes several times a day. My husband has seen gangrene that would not heal with any medicine but was healed by soaking in peroxide.

7. Fill a spray bottle with a 50/50 mixture of peroxide and water and keep it in every bathroom to disinfect without harming your septic system like bleach or most other Disinfectants will.

8. Tilt your head back and spray into nostrils with your 50/50 mixture whenever you have a cold, plugged sinus. It will bubble and help to kill the bacteria. Hold for a few minutes, and then blow your nose into a tissue.

9. If you have a terrible toothache and cannot get to a dentist right away, put a capful of 3% peroxide into your mouth and hold it for ten minutes several times a day. The pain will lessen greatly.

10. And of course, if you like a natural look to your hair, spray the 50/50 solution on your wet hair after a shower and comb it through. You will not have the peroxide-burnt blonde hair like the hair dye packages but more natural highlights if your hair is a light brown, reddish, or dirty blonde. It also lightens gradually, so it's not a drastic change.

11. Put half a bottle of peroxide in your bath to help get rid of boils, fungus, or other skin infections.

12. You can also add a cup of peroxide instead of bleach to a load of whites in your laundry to whiten them. If there is blood on clothing, pour it directly on the soiled spot. Let it sit for a minute, then rub it and rinse with cold water. Repeat if necessary.

13. I use peroxide to clean my mirrors. There is no smearing, which is why I love it so much for this.

14. Another place it's great is in the bathroom, if someone has been careless & has wet on the floor around the toilet & it's begun to smell of urine. Just put some peroxide in a spray bottle & spray. In the blink of any eye all the smell will be gone & the bacteria eliminated!

I could go on and on. It is a little brown bottle no home should be without! With prices of most necessities rising, I'm glad there's a way to save tons of money in such a simple, healthy manner! 'This information really woke me up. I hope you gain something from it, too.

Fresh Cut Friday!

I'm not sure where the time goes
but here we are for another Fresh Cut Friday


at Rose Vignettes!

These "Sweet Peas" popped up in my garden this year.
They make a sweet bouquet
I'm not sure where they came from.
Sweet Peas are a Spring/cool weather flower and all mine have died
back and gone to seed for the year. 


Our Summer heat is too much for them.
I guess the birds left me a gift or some of my seed morphed?
Can it do that?
I love the color and splotches on the petals.
Unfortunately these do not have the Sweet Peas scent.
They actually have no scent....
which is better than having a nasty one!


Be sure to pop over to Liz's and see everyone's flowers

Garden Happenings

I'm joining:


Cottage Flora Thursdays over at Fishtail Cottage


Fertilizer Friday over at Tootsie Time



Cottage Garden Party over at Etsy Cottage Style

We have had such a heatwave lately.
I spend most of my time watering while trying not to use much water...
yeh, if you figure that one out let me know!

The fruits and veggies have, of course, loved the heat.

I picked some grapes and white nectarines yesterday.
They both are so yummy!


A few Hollyhocks are still trying to put out a few blooms



The strawberry pot I planted with succulent cuttings
last month looks like it took off.


The wild Roses are still blooming


as are the Carpet Roses


You can tell how hot it's been....
I have tons of weeds to pull,
tons of trimming to do...

you can't even see the gate for the Trumpet Vine and Clematis



Rose of Sharon has a bloom or two left


my Impatiens seem stunted...


Luckily most are well established and really don't require alot of water.


I only use soaker hoses and dripper irrigation to water minimizing evaporation.
ie. all the hoses you see ;)
This year I set up a multiple manifold at the faucet
that way I never have to move the hoses,
I can control which ones I want on at the faucet
by either opening or closing the valves.


Remember that lovely carpet of Baby Tears I showed you about a month ago?
Burnt to a crisp.
It will be back in the winter tho.


My little Pomegranate tree is growing steadily.


Only a wisp of a cold memory...
one Snowflake was forgotten and still hangs under the arbor...
in the center of the photo.


Most all in the front garden has crispy blooms.
This get the hottest Sun of the day
and is the newest garden.


The front of the hidden gate LOL


Be sure to pop over and see all the
wonderful gardens at the parties above!

Sharing Faries






Enjoy!
