Ozone in nature
In nature, there is a cycle of oxygen just like there is a cycle of water. Oxygen is released from
plants on land and plankton in the sea during photosynthesis. The oxygen is lighter than air and
floats upward in the atmosphere. Ozone production in the upper atmosphere is dependent on the
amount of energy coming from the sun. During peaks of solar activity, ozone is created at a greater
rate. At night, on the dark side of the planet, the ozone layer disappears, in a few hours. The layer is
reformed as the sun rises in the morning. There is no ozone over the poles in the winter because
there is no sunlight.
Ozone is produced constantly in the upper atmosphere as long as the sun is shining, and since ozone
is heavier than air, it begins to fall earthward. As it falls, it combines with any pollutant it contacts,
cleaning the air, nature’s wonderful self-cleaning system.
If ozone contacts water vapor as it falls, it forms hydrogen peroxide, a component of rainwater, and
the reason why rainwater causes plants to grow better than irrigation. Ozone is also created by
lightning, and the amount produced in an average storm is often triple the allowable limit of .015
PPM as set by the US EPA. This ozone is what gives the air the wonderful fresh smell after a rain,
and is of the highest benefit to anyone fortunate enough to be breathing it. Ozone is also created by
waterfalls and crashing surf, which accounts for the energetic feeling and calm experienced near
these sites.
Another way ozone is produced by photons from the sun breaking apart nitrous oxide, a pollutant
formed by the combustion of hydrocarbons in the internal combustion engine. This ozone is brown,
not blue, also known as SMOG. It’s ozone made from car exhaust.
Ozone in alternative medicine
Ozone is a form of oxygen. In alternative medicine, practitioners of ozone therapy use gas or liquid forms
of ozone to treat medical conditions and as a topical disinfectant.
People have practiced ozone therapy in medical settings for many years. Ozone therapy can be
administered in many ways, intravenously, intra-arterially, intra-articularly, intramuscularly,
subcutaneously, topically, as inhalations after bubbling it through olive oil, or as insufflations ( rectal,
vaginal, sinus, ear). The applications are either performed directly with the ozone gas or with ozonated
liquids like ozonated water, saline, or oils.
Ozone therapy is one of the most versatile therapeutic applications. It is used to treat a very long list of
illnesses, many of which are regarded by conventional medicine as incurable. Yet doctors who practice
ozone therapy regularly see successes with those so-called “incurable” conditions.
This is one of the reasons why ozone is often considered a “miracle drug”, even by medical professionals.
But this is also one of the reasons why it is regarded suspiciously by skeptics who find it unlikely that a
single molecule could help with so many different ailments.
Conditions that can be assisted by Ozone
• Viral diseases like Hepatitis and Herpes Zoster
• Degenerative diseases and disturbances of the immune system e.g. rheumatoid disorders and
autoimmune illness
• Bacterial diseases including infected wounds, diabetic foot, infected burns, and chronic sinusitis
• Vascular diseases e.g. atherosclerosis, Burger`s disease, Reynaud’s disease and peripheral
vascular insufficiency
• Allergic conditions e.g. bronchial asthma and eczema
• Cancer also in combination with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy
• Obesity and elevated cholesterol
• It is highly efficient in managing exhaustion, nervous tension and pain in general
Some details
Inactivation of Bacteria, Viruses, Fungi and Protozoa
Ozone disrupts the integrity of bacterial cell wall through oxidation of the phospholipids and lipoproteins.
It also damages viral capsid and upsets reproductive cycle by disrupting virus-to-cell contact.
Enhancement of Circulation
Ozone reduces clumping of red cells and restores its flexibility and oxygen carrying ability. The arterial
oxygen partial pressure increases and viscosity decreases leading to better tissue oxygenation. In addition
ozone oxidizes plaques in arteries allowing removal of the breakdown products.
Stimulation of Enzymes
Stimulation of enzymes which act as a free radical scavengers and cell wall protectors. For example:
Glutathione Peroxidase, Catalase, and Superoxide Dismutase.
Activation of the Immune System
Ozone stimulates the production of interferon 4-9 times the normal level. It also stimulates the production
of interleukins mainly Interleukin-2. In addition ozone stimulates the production of Tumour necrosis
factor (TNF)
In simple terms, when a cell becomes stressed (by physical or chemical shock or by viral, bacterial or
fungal attack) its energy levels are reduced and it becomes electro-positive. Ozone has a free radical
electrical charge in the third atom of oxygen (O3) which is able to balance this unbalanced charge.
Diseased cells, viruses, harmful bacteria and other pathogens carry such a charge and so attract ozone and
its by-products.
When ozone is introduced to the body, it reacts with these oxidisable substrates killing viruses, bacteria,
and fungi. In addition, the metabolic waste products of these organisms are oxidized and an oxygen rich
environment is provided within which healthy cells can thrive. Normal healthy cells can not react with
ozone or its by-products as they possess a balanced electrical charge and strong enzyme system. Ozone
targets only diseased cells and pathogens.
Key Benefits:
- Inactivates viruses, bacteria, parasites etc
- Stimulates immune system and speeds healing
- Reduces inflammation and pain
- Improves brain function and memory while calming nerves
- Scavenges free radicals and breaks down toxins
What Is Ozone Therapy?
Ozone is oxygen with 3 atoms (O3). It is created by the action of ultraviolet rays on atmospheric oxygen
20 to 30 kilometres from earth’s surface to form the ozone layer. It is also generated by the action of the
high voltage of thunder (lightning) on atmospheric oxygen near earth. This explains the fresh air that we
smell following rain. In addition, ozone is generated by the action of sea waves on oxygen at the sea-
shore with the characteristic smell.
Oxygen is a life-giving, life-sustaining element. Our body’s cells depend on oxygen and cannot survive
more than few minutes without oxygen. Ninety percent of body energy is created by oxygen through
aerobic metabolism. Proper Cellular Oxygenation is the only way to get the best of health.
It was postulated that during evolution and the presence of plants and green leaves on earth, the oxygen
percent was 50 %. Professor Robert Berner of Yale University has researched oxygen levels in prehistoric
times by chemically analysing air bubbles trapped in fossilized tree amber. He suggests that humans
breathed a much more oxygen-rich air 10,000 years ago.
There are several factors responsible for the continuous decrease of atmospheric oxygen. The most
important factors include: deforestation, industrial pollution, car exhaust pollution, devitalized soil
(overuse of organophosphates), volcanic eruptions, and deterioration of the Ozone Layer. Proper
Oxygenation of the blood via various modalities can restore health and slow-down the aging process.
Ozone has been used for over 140 years in more than 50 countries including Germany, France, Italy,
Russia, Ukraine, Romania, Poland, Bulgaria, Hungary, Czech Republic, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia,
India, Cuba, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Honduras, Britain, Egypt, Oman, Sudan, Lebanon, UAE and
more than 25 U.S. states.
