Guest guest Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 Doctors Hope 'Miracle Water' Kills Bacteria Thursday, May 26, 2005 U.S. Food and Drug Administration SAN FRANCISCO — Super-oxygenated water has been used for years as a powerful disinfectant, but now a California company has developed a non-toxic formula that can kill bacteria without hurting healthy tissue. Microcyn — made from water and salt — is produced by a company called Oculus, which spent four years developing the spray. Its makers say it can speed up the healing of life-threatening burns and wounds, including diabetic ulcers. Another benefit promoted by the company is that instead of a shelf life of hours or days, the substance can stay effective for years. The product is already being used as a disinfectant in Europe, Canada and India. In the United States, Microcyn has won approval from the Food and Drug Administration as a medical device and doctors are cautiously optimistic about its potential. " The sooner you can get the person healed and back to being fully active, the less it costs you and the better their quality of life, so everyone's looking for anything that will expedite that process, " said Dr. Tim Berger, a dermatologist at the University of California, San Francisco. A veterinary version of Microcyn is available to treat wounded pets, but starting next month a human version will be available to U.S. doctors and hospitals. Clinical trials testing a variety of possible applications for super-oxygenated water are in the planning stages. Copyright 2005 FOX News Network, LLC. All rights reserved.

Guest guest Posted May 29, 2005 Report Share Posted May 29, 2005 Pardon my ignorance, but what is the difference between super-oxygenated water and water with some food-grade hydrogen peroxide added? I am adding a capful of H2O2 per 5 gallon pail of the water for my chickens. Did it the previous year too. They seem to thrive on it. I downloaded an e-book on H2O2 miracle, through Dr William Campbell Douglass' website or newsletter. Do a Google on the good doctor and you'll get there. The book is free, and looks interesting, though I must admit I have only glanced at it.
