Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide has a massive variety of uses.
Different concentrations are used for different things. Do not confuse this with the idea of 'Grade'. There are a few grades like Technical grade, Electrical grade, Agricultural grade etc etc. Also be aware that drug store varieties of H2O2 and other grades are full of toxic additives and stabalizers and cannot be used for people. Drugstore peroxide is only for external use.
Here are just a few examples of Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide uses:
* Mouthwash * Vegetable Wash * Sanitizer and Disinfectant * Toothpaste * Foot/Bath Soak * Facial Wash. Obviously, make sure you do a bit of research on these if thinking of using peroxide. In addition to this, it is also more cost effective to buy high concentration 35% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide and dilute it for your particular use.
To make a 3% solution from 35%, mix 11 parts distilled water with 1 part H2O2.
