image About a year ago I stumbled across an awesome trick for beating a cold (or the flu).  Hydrogen Peroxide!

I do not say this lightly...  IT'S ALMOST A MIRICLE CURE!

Here is how it works.

  1. Lay down on your side.
  2. Have someone take a small capful (or a few drops) of Hydrogen Peroxide and put it in your ear.
  3. Let the solution bubble and fizz for 5 - 10 minutes.
  4. Tip your head and clear out the excess (and gunk).
  5. Flip your head over and repeat in the other ear.

Repeat every 6 hours (or so) until you feel better.  That's it!

It's worked for me.  It's worked for my wife.  It's worked for my kids.  I am not a doctor, nor do I play one on TV.  Just a simple guy that stumbled across a cold remedy that works well for me  ...Your mileage may vary. 

You can pick up a 16oz bottle of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide from your local pharmacy for less than a $1.

There is some science behind this theory.  I have read a few studies that talked about viruses entering via the ear canal.  I have seen a bunch of "medical-ish" articles touting the power of Hydrogen Peroxide. 

If in doubt, Google it.  You will be impressed at the power of Hydrogen Peroxide (because everything you read on the Internet is true)!  All kidding aside, this Hydrogen Peroxide lifehack has worked well for me and my family.
