Abstract:
1. A method of treating a damaged mucosal, or gastrointestinal tissue, the method comprising: administering an effective amount of a composition to the damaged tissue of a subject in need thereof, the composition comprising hydrogen peroxide and a mixture of an aqueous pomegranate extract and an aqueous green tea extract wherein the mixture comprises phenolic compounds; wherein the composition is prepared by combining the mixture with hydrogen peroxide to form an aqueous solution such that the final concentration of hydrogen peroxide in the solution is 0.05-3%; the mixture to hydrogen peroxide ratio in the composition is about 1:2 to about 1:20 on a molar weight basis; the hydrogen peroxide is releasably bound to the phenolic compounds of the mixture; the composition is bioactivated at a target site having a peroxidase or oxidase that is expressed in response to the tissue damage; and the composition contains no unbound hydrogen peroxide prior to the bioactivating at the target site; wherein the composition functions as an antitoxin when bioactivated at the target site of the damaged mucosal, or gastrointestinal tissue and assists in the healing of the damaged tissue by inactivating toxic compounds at the target site.
