Ok, how about Peroxide:
This is what Oxi clean is...
Did you Know that????
3% peroxide................
'I would like to tell you of the benefits of that plain little old bottle of 3% peroxide you can get for under $1.00 at any drug store. My husband has been in the medical field for over 36 years, and most doctors don't tell you about peroxide, or they would lose thousands of dollars.'
1. Take one capful (the little white cap that comes with the bottle) and hold in your mouth for 10 minutes daily, then spit it out. (I do it when I bathe)
No more canker sores and your teeth will be whiter without expensive pastes. Use it instead of mouthwash (Small print says mouth wash and gargle right on the bottle)
2. Let your toothbrushes soak in a cup of 'Peroxide' to keep them free of germs.
3. Clean your counters, table tops with peroxide to kill germs and leave a fresh smell. Simply put a little on your dishrag when you wipe, or spray it on the counters.
4. After rinsing off your wooden cutting board, pour peroxide on it to kill salmonella and other bacteria.
5. I had fungus on my feet for years - until I sprayed a 50/50 mixture of peroxide and water on them (especially the toes) every night and let dry.
6. Soak any infections or cuts in 3% peroxide for five to ten minutes several times a day. My husband has seen gangrene that would not heal with any medicine, but was healed by soaking in peroxide.
7. Fill a spray bottle with a 50/50 mixture of peroxide and water and keep it in every bathroom to disinfect without harming your septic system like bleach or most other disinfectants will.
8. Tilt your head back and spray into nostrils with your 50/50 mixture whenever you have a cold, or plugged sinuses. It will bubble and help to kill the bacteria. Hold for a few minutes then blow your nose into a tissue.
9. If you have a terrible toothache and cannot get to a dentist right away, put a capful of 3% peroxide into your mouth and hold it for ten minutes several times a day. The pain will lessen greatly.
10 And of course, if you like a natural look to your hair, spray the 50/50 solution on your wet hair after a shower and comb it through. You will not have the peroxide burnt blonde hair like the hair dye packages, but more natural highlights if your hair is a light brown, reddish, or dirty blonde. It also lightens gradually so it's not a drastic change.
11. Put half a bottle of peroxide in your bath to help rid boils, fungus, or other skin infections.
12. You can also add a cup of peroxide instead of bleach to a load of whites in your laundry to whiten them. If there is blood on clothing, pour directly on the soiled spot. Let it sit for a minute, then rub it and rinse with cold water. Repeat if necessary.
13. I use peroxide to clean my mirrors with, and there is no smearing which is why I love it so much for this.
I could go on and on. It is a little brown bottle no home should be without! With prices of most necessities rising, I'm glad there's a way to save tons of money in such a simple, healthy manner.

Oatmeal in bath or poltis will relive itching
powered milk in bath smooth skin, relieves dry skin
wet folded up bath towel wrapped in plastic bag and taped, micro-wave for heating pad
rub mechanics hand cleaner on grease marks on clothes
Dawn on food spots on laundry to get stain out
vinegar will relieve the sting of sunburn and soothe
SOS (skin so soft) will act as insect repellant
cayenne pepper will stop bleeding
baking soda in a drain followed by vinegar will help keep drain clear
More peroxide
pour in ear to clean, will relieve earache, sinus, and/or headache
Spray that solution on fresh fruit and vegetables before washing them
and they will keep four times as long.
Blonde or lightened hair, fresh lemon or lime cut in two and rubbed on hair
will speed up lighten from the sun, seen this with my own eyes.
you can put lemon juice in spray bottle and comb through.

***sorprano safe warning***
good thread but remember everyone our human body is porous and if you use things like WD-40 Spray and rub it in: things like that everyday enter our bodies too that maybe should not--i say whatever your fancy, read before you apply about using anything entering even the outside of your body which may enter inside too through your pores of your skin...
