Myth #5: “Once diluted, food grade hydrogen peroxide stays effective indefinitely.”
FACT: Hydrogen peroxide naturally breaks down into water and oxygen over time. This process accelerates when exposed to:
- Light (which is why we use opaque bottles)
- Heat
- Certain metals
- Organic material
For best results, we recommend:
- Diluting only what you need for immediate use
- Storing any remaining solution in a dark bottle
- Using diluted solutions within a reasonable timeframe
Conclusion: Understanding the differences between food grade and regular hydrogen peroxide helps you make informed decisions about which product is right for your needs. At PureOxy Life, we’re committed to providing not just premium 34.5% Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide, but also the knowledge to use it safely and effectively.
