Ozone
Ozone or O3 is an oxygen molecule that is used in many countries to purify water and air. It affects many important pathways in our body that help protect us from disease and illness.
When introduced into human tissues or blood it rapidly saturates cells with life giving oxygen. Improved oxygen levels Increases circulation and helps our bodies create energy. It also activates the immune system, promotes detox and anti-oxidant pathways and neutralizes inflammation. Ozone also has an analgesic affect due to its affect on nerve endings in damaged tissue.
Ozone can be administered by injecting it into joints and tissues directly, and into a patient’s blood by a process called Major Auto chemotherapy (MAH). This process involves drawing a patient’s blood, infusing it with ozone and then returning the ozonated blood back into the patient through an IV.
