The purpose of Hydrogen Peroxide is to help the immune system to function properly. The white blood cells that fight infection, produce Hydrogen Peroxide. It is also important in the process of breaking down carbohydrates, fats, proteins, minerals, and vitamins in order to release the body’s energy. It helps regulate hormones and is necessary for the production of estrogen, progesterone, and thyroxin.
