frequently asked questions

What Is Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide?

Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide has almost the same molecular structure as water (H2O). The only difference is that hydrogen peroxide contains an additional oxygen atom, making its chemical structure H2O2. In the atmosphere, hydrogen peroxide is formed after oxygen combines with sunlight to become ozone. As the ozone interacts with water in the form of clouds, hydrogen peroxide is formed.
It naturally accrues in rainwater which cleanses the landscape and oxygenates the soil, lakes, and seas. Hydrogen peroxide works as nature’s perfect cleanser through oxidation with this extra oxygen atom.
Oxygen Plus, food grade hydrogen peroxide 3%, is completely non-toxic. In fact, food grade hydrogen peroxide has been widely used in food manufacturing, personal care products, and the medical community for over 170 years. You can rest assured that it’s safe to use around adults, children, animals, and fresh produce
