She talks too much and doesn't even say anything helpful.

[@zenaidadeleon7767]

Rachel, be nice, be professional-let this nice guy to finish talking first. It’s not because it’s your show. Pls try not to be annoying. What if you happen to be the guest & u will experience same thing u did to that guy, it’s rude. I bet u will feel piss off or be offended. Right? Learn to be fair.

I don't know why people go on her show, she talks over them, rude and inconsiderate . That is why I stop watching her.

very typical behavior of narcissistic personality disorder.

[@gloriand3706]

This demonstration is very disturbing...Rachael always interrupting...this man has a message and even then it is not complete ...they figured she was no help and cut the video short. It can cause people to be misled. Find another video on Food Grade 32% Hydrogen Peroxide for health and healing anything.

[@MelB868]

What’s disturbing about it they aren’t going to eat the potatoes

[@sherrellcherry-thomas8290]

I just read that what he said is true . Once opened only really effective for 6 months. The bottle itself said good for 12 months. I was curious because I have 2 bottles after expiration date. I read if not unopened good for 3 years. Once opened it starts to break down. Also if it does not fizz up or bubble up. It's really nolonger any good.

[@bryonwilson8498]

Unopened Peroxide lasts 3+ years. Opened last 6 months. String peroxide, unopened or opened in the fridge extends the shelf life up to 4 times as long.

[@ME-br6lt]

you said "string" peroxide. did you mean to type "storing" peroxide?

[@realchiknuggets]

@@ME-br6lt the unnecessary comma made it even weirder to tell what he was trying to say. I had no idea he maybe meant "storing" until I saw your comment

What they fail to tell you is that its reacting to an enzyme in the blood, not bacteria, so it's no better than water at cleaning a wound, it's just better at telling you it's doing something.

Hormone disruptors in most brands of mouthwash. Use 1% or 3% HP diluted with water or 1/2 a tsp of baking soda in 2 oz 60 ml of water. Brush with Real Salt or any non bleached salt mixed with a few drops of clove oil. Dab the brush into the smallest amount of this.

Peroxide was never "sting" me. When my daughter was little she would say it would sting and told her no it did not...but when my grandson ( her son) told me the same thing and now hearing it here. I guess I am the "special" one.

[@dannelson8556]

Only use hydrogen peroxide as an antiseptic on wounds if you have nothing else to use. Hydrogen peroxide is an absolutely horrible antiseptics that will cause scarring as it cauterizes and Sears the tissue in the wound completely destroying its ability to heal. Antiseptics are almost completely unnecessary and vastly overused. The overuse of antiseptics is creating highly resistant strains of bacteria, and why we are seeing the spread of things like flesh eating bacteria. In a properly cleaned wound you don't need to use an antiseptic. If you feel you must use antiseptic then use a simple antibiotic ointment that does not destroy the tissue in the wounds. You should always keep on hand straight sterile saline solution to flush out minor wounds. A wound flushed with saline solution will heal much faster and without scarring as compared to a wound flush with hydrogen peroxide
