From the Orifice of Dr. Scofield

The many benefits and uses of Hydrogen Peroxide 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. No more canker sores and your teeth will be whiter without expensive pastes. Use it instead of mouthwash. (Small print says mouth wash and gargle right on the bottle). 2. Let your toothbrushes soak in a cup of "Peroxide" to keep them free of germs. 3. Clean your counters 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. One man reports, “I had a 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. All gone.” 6. Soak any infections or cuts in 3% peroxide for five to ten minutes several times a day. A nurse reports that she has seen gangrene that would not heal with any medicine, but was healed by soaking in peroxide. 8. 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. 9. Tilt your head back and spray into nostrils with your 50/50 mixture whenever you have a cold, or plugged sinuses. It will bubble and help to kill the bacteria. Hold for a few minutes then blow your nose into a tissue. 10. 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. 11. 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. 12. Put half of a bottle of peroxide in your bath to help rid boils, fungus, or other skin infections. 13. You can also add a cup of peroxide instead of bleach to a load of whites in your laundry to whiten them. If there are protein stains on clothing, pour it directly on the spot, let it sit for a minute, then rub it and rinse with water. Repeat if necessary. 14. I use peroxide to clean my mirrors with, and there is no smearing which is why I love it so much for this. 15. Use 3% Hydrogen peroxide for removing blood stains – especially if they are fairly fresh. Pour directly on the soiled spot, let it sit for a minute, then rub it and rinse with cold water. Repeat if necessary. It is a great bleaching agent for stubborn stains on white clothes. Combine ½ c. hydrogen peroxide and 1 t. ammonia for a great stain removal combination. 16. Use hydrogen peroxide to bleach delicate items such as wool or wool blends. Soak them overnight in a solution of one part 3% hydrogen peroxide to eight parts cold water. Launder according to care instructions.

FOR BURNS!

Know ye This is an email that has been passed around. A recent news article tried to debunk this method of pain relief. This is what I have to say," Back off! The Chinese have ancient secrets that may work for many and we are all different, we all heal differently, so yes, it may not be for everyone, but don't dump the bath water thing!
Genetically we are different, we function differently!tl//
WITH THAT SAID:




Once again it is worth a try

值得一试

 Burn, no afraid use flour - it works

Once I was cooking some corn and stuck my fork in the boiling

water to see if the corn was ready.   I missed and my hand went

into the boiling water....

     在一次煮玉米粥时，我用叉子在沸腾的粥里翻搅，想看看粥好了没有。

我错手没拿到叉子，而把手碰进了沸水里面！痛得我尖叫起来！

A friend of mine, who was a Vietnam vet, came into the house, just

as I was screaming, and asked me if I had some plain old flour...I

pulled out a bag and he stuck my hand in it.  He said to keep my hand

in the flour for 10 mins. which I did.  He said that in Vietnam, this guy

was on fire and in their panic, they threw a bag of flour all over him to

put the fire out...well, it not only put the fire out, but he never even had

a blister!!!!

   一位越南朋友,他是位兽医，恰巧来到我家，我正在尖叫！他即刻问我有没有面粉。我拿出一袋面粉，他叫我把手伸进去，并且放在面粉里10分钟，我照做了。他说，在越南曾有一个家伙身上着火了，众人在惊慌中把一袋子的面粉撒在他的身上灭火。

但令人惊讶的是，它不仅灭了火，被燒那家伙的身上竞没有水泡！！！

So, I put my hand in the bag of flour for 10 mins, and then pulled it out and had not even a red mark or a blister and absolutley NO PAIN.

Now, I keep a bag of flour in the fridge and every time I burn myself,

I use the flour and never ONCE have I ever had a red spot, a burn or a blister!

*cold flour feels even better than room temperature flour.

我把手放在面粉里10分钟后拿出来，手上确実没有灼伤的红印或者水泡，

完全没有受伤！

现在，我总会在冰箱放一袋子面粉，每次不小心灼伤自己，我就用面粉敷，

没有一次是有红印或水泡的。

*注意：冷面粉比常温面粉效果更佳！

Miracle, if you ask me.  Keep a bag of white flour in your fridge and you will be happy you did.  I even burnt my tongue and put the flour on it for about 10 mins, and the pain was gone and no burn.  Try it!

Don't run your burn area under Cold water first, just put it right into the flour for 10 mins and experience a miracle!

奇迹！如果你问我的话。放一袋白面粉在冰箱是不会錯的。我甚至在烫到舌头的时候，把面粉敷在上面10分钟，伤去无痕！试一试吧！

不要把你烫伤的地方马上放在冷水下冲洗，而要放在面粉里10分钟，你会发现奇迹的！

I love GOOD FOOD!

HEALTHY EATING!

The New Bulb of Tomorrow Today

This was a circulated email, the event did not happen to me though I know the horror of living with so much CFL around my house. Remember when it was chic? tl//!

Below is a picture of a CFL light bulb from my bathroom. I turned it on the other day and then smelled smoke after a few minutes. Four inch flames were spewing out of the side of the ballast like a blow torch! I immediately turned off the lights. But I'm sure it would have caused a fire if I was not right there. Imagine if the kids had left the lights on as usual when they were not in the room.


I took the bulb to the Fire Department to report the incident. The Fireman wasn't at all surprised and said that it was not an uncommon occurrence. Apparently, sometimes when the bulb burns out there is a chance that the ballast can start a fire. He told me that the Fire Marshall had issued reports about the dangers of these bulbs.

Upon doing some Internet research, it seems that bulbs made by “Globe” in China seem to have the lion’s share of problems. Lots of fires have been blamed on misuse of CFL bulbs, like using them in recessed lighting, pot lights, dimmers or in track lighting. Mine was installed in a normal light socket.

I bought these at Wal-Mart. I will be removing all the Globe bulbs from my house. CFL bulbs are a great energy saver but make sure you buy a name brand like Sylvania , Phillips or GE and not the ones from China .

PLEASE NOTE THE DATE. OFFERS LIKE THESE ARE ALWAYS SUBJECT TO CHANGE AT ANY TIME.

EXCELLENT PATIENT CARE

Let me go here right now. If I let this go it would be a shame. Dentistry has come a long way. I won't say no! The price you have to pay has also. I guess they're making it up in care practices. But it's worth it, I guess. I'm impressed by this school of this kind of technology. This science is fascinating! You have to know everything about the human body really! This is a "THANK YOU" to Dr. Q.Rupp, and Dr. S. Smith for the knowledge and confidence. I feel like ....But it was worth it! Thank You again!

Don't Pick Your NOSE!!

H1N1- very good info: Now, I copied an email, I won't say no! BUT, I'll give credit from whence it came. ORIGINALLY! The next reading "IS" great to know, JUST KNOW. tl       The following advice, given by Dr. Oz, makes a lot of sense and is important for all to know:          The only portals of entry are the nostrils and mouth/throat. In a global epidemic of this nature, it's almost impossible to avoid coming into  contact with H1N1 in spite of all precautions. Contact with H1N1 is  not so much of a problem as proliferation is.           While you are still healthy and not showing any symptoms of H1N1  infection, in order to prevent proliferation, aggravation of symptoms and development of secondary infections, some very simple steps,  not fully highlighted in most official communications, can be practiced  (instead of focusing on how to stock N95 or Tamiflu):            1. Frequent hand-washing (well highlighted in all official communications).            2. "Hands-off-the-face" approach. Resist all temptations to touch any part of face (unless you want to eat or bathe.)         3. *Gargle twice a day with warm salt water (use Listerine or Hydrogen Peroxide  if you don't trust salt).  *H1N1 takes 2-3 days after initial infection in the throat/ nasal cavity to proliferate and show characteristic symptoms. Simple gargling prevents proliferation. In a way, gargling with salt water has  the same effect on a healthy individual that Tamiflu has on an infected one. Don't underestimate this simple, inexpensive and powerful preventative method.           4. Similar to 3 above, *clean your nostrils at least once every day with warm  salt water, or hydrogen peroxide. *Not everybody may be good at Jala Neti or Sutra Neti (very good Yoga asanas to clean nasal cavities), but *blowing the  nose softly once a day and swabbing both nostrils with cotton buds dipped in  warm salt water is very effective in bringing down viral population.*           5. *Boost your natural immunity with foods that are rich in Vitamin C (Amla and  other citrus fruits). *If you have to supplement with Vitamin C tablets, make  sure that it also has Zinc to boost absorption.                    6. *Drink as much of warm liquids (tea, coffee, etc) as you can. *Drinking warm  liquids has the same effect as gargling, but in the reverse direction. They wash off proliferating viruses from the throat into the stomach  where they cannot survive, proliferate or do any harm.           Pass this on to your entire e-list.   You never know who might pay  attention to it – and STAY ALIVE because of it.
