Ozone Therapy and Disease.


March 22, 2006

Scientific studies have proven that Ozone, properly introduced into the body in repeated applications inactivates viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoa and carcinomas in diseased cells. Why then is ozone therapy only widely accepted in Europe? Some of the answers can be found in the article “The Politics of Ozone and AIDS” by Dr Levy.


Ozone therapy has been in use for many years by thousands of West German doctors who claim, in hundreds of scientific and clinical studies, that they are able to inactivate AIDS and other viruses and even cancer through ozone therapy. How?

Diseased cells have a lowered enzyme count in their cell wall or ‘lipid envelope'.
Looking at a diseased cell electrochemically, the first thing that differentiates it from normal cells is that the protein coating that surrounds it is contoured distinctly. The disease that has invaded the cell is parasitical, drawing off the cellular electricity or ‘life force' of its host. This creates ‘cell stress' and under these conditions, the cell can only manufacture a substandard protein coating for itself. When ozone is introduced into the blood in correct, stable concentrations, it is immediately converted into hydroxyperoxides and other beneficial free radical scavengers.


Medical ozone (the medical term is triatomic oxygen) is completely safe and non-toxic to humans when administered responsibly with precise technology. Ozone is not meant to be breathed directly into the lungs in high concentrations, although small amounts in the air does offer a sterilizing effect.


Here are two abstracts that outline the non-toxicity of medical ozone:
1) An animal treated with medical ozone in a manner analogous to the proposed human treatment regime at the Long Island College of Pharmacy revealed no toxicity at concentrations up to ten times the dose proposed in man. (Ozone: An overview of its toxicity in man and animals." D. Menzel   Toxicol & Environ Health 1984)
2) Research study: "Effects of long-term exposure to low levels of ozone: a review." C.W. Melton (Aviation, Space & Environmental) " Toxicity of Ozone." S. Mittler. M. King. B. Burkhardt (AMA Arch Ind. 1957)

Results of Ozone Therapy and Candida and Epstein-Barr


Systemic candida has been widely touted as being present in epidemic proportions. Ozone's fungicidal properties make it the ideal treatment for candida, both local and systemic. Epstein-Barr virus has been blamed for the mysterious ‘Chronic Fatigue Syndrome' affecting thousands of Americans. It is considered medically incurable but there are already scientific studies and anecdotal reports that it can be successfully treated by a lengthy course of ozone therapy. Here is some research on Candida / ozone therapy:
* Effect of ozone on the survivability of Candida utilis cells." Navuk et al. 1981
* Fungi growth and sporulation after a single treatment of spores with ozone."
Mikol Fitopatol. 1982

Epstein-Barr / Ozone therapy:
* In chronic viral infections – Cytomegalic, Epstein-Barr and Retroviridae (AIDS) among others – blood ozonation performed in viremic cycles or in periods of clinical exacerbation may, through direct action, through the production of co-factors inhibitory to viral replication, or through modification of immune function, be a tool in inducing viral quiescence." (From O3 Conference 1989 Report)
In a short-term "Study of the variation under ozone treatment of 16 patients presenting a T4/T8 lower than 1.2", three of the patients had Epstein-Barr, and after ozone treatment showed an average 33.3% improvement during the brief experimental period.

Results of Ozone Therapy and Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, etc.

Recent studies by Russian and French doctors have shown extremely dramatic results in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease with ozone therapy. One reason is that it has been found that a cause of Alzheimer's is aluminum toxicity in the brain, and ozonation of the blood has been shown to precipitate the aluminum. Also, of course, its abilities as a circulatory enhancer and cell rejuvenator come into play. In a similar vein, German doctors have also had success with Parkinson's, MS and other nervous system disorders.

Results of Ozone Therapy in Wound Healing and Burns.


The virucidal, bactericidal and fungicidal properties of O3 make it the treatment of choice for wound healing. Excellent results are obtained, for example, with gangrene:
" Gangrene usually required a one-hour session each day, with ozone being put in the blood, and into a gas bag (topical application). Out of a total of 33 patients scheduled for surgical amputation, only 1 (with other problems) actually had to have an amputation." *
The use of O3 tents in Burn Units is so effective in immediately halting infection and promoting healing that it is difficult to understand why this practice has not yet been applied in the US considering its widespread successful use in W. Germany for years.

Results of Ozone Therapy in Arthritis

"Arthritis was usually treated every other day, and within 3 days there was significant reduction of pain, and by the end of the patient's stay, deformed joints were reduced as a matter of course." In The Use of Ozone in Medicine, West German doctors Rilling and Viebahn describe the specific protocol used successfully in arthritis, referring to the numerous papers on the subject by Dr. H. Wolff.

Results of Ozone Therapy and AIDS

AIDS is a virus, and ozone has been proven in countless studies to be virucidal (as well as fungicidal, bactericidal, etc.). There has been a great deal of research suggesting that ozone is effective in the eradication of the AIDS virus, both in vitro (in a test tube) and in vivo (in people!) Anglo-American Research has to date conducted three scientific human studies, under strict scientific protocol, involving patients with AIDS, with excellent results. In the first study, a research facility ‘over the border' was set up for 5 AIDS patients whose disease was in a very advanced stage (2 of them ‘didn't have a T-4 between them" – their levels were 0.3 and 0.4). The study, which was funded by the researchers themselves, lasted 10 days, after which the patients were again tested at the University of Arizona and then went home with their doctor, who took with him equipment to continue treatment. The results were nothing less than astounding! All of the patients are still alive and well except one, who has since died of tuberculosis (not AIDS-related). After these results, the Anglo-American team had no difficulty getting funding for continued research and they held another human study with 8 persons in Alaska. This study included patients with a variety of diseases – several AIDS patients.

Results of Ozone Therapy and Cancer


Cancer cells have disturbed metabolisms. Nobel Prize winner Dr. Otto Warburg discovered as far back as 1925 that cancer cells function best in the absence of oxygen, in effect, living on fermentation rather than respiration. Some authors report that tumor cells don't have enough of the proper enzymes to resist ozone's actions.

There are many scientific and anecdotal reports of successful treatment of cancer with ozone therapy. "The logic sustaining the use of oxygen-ozone application to the treatment of carcinomas rests on the strategy of capitalizing on the disturbed metabolism of cancer cells…. In one study, cultured cells of different carcinoma types were compared with non-cancerous human lung fibroblasts on exposure to ozonated air…Lung carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, breast adenocarcinoma, uterine carcinosarcoma and endometrial carcinoma showed 40-90 % growth inhibition (depending on the concentration of ozone used)… The non-cancerous cells were relatively unaffected. The authors postulate that cancer cells are less able to compensate for the oxidative challenge of ozone than normal cells, possibly by way of a less functional glutathione system.


There are many clinical and anecdotal reports (see below) of ozone being prescribed on a daily basis for several weeks, applied to the treatment of various carcinomatous conditions.

O3 and Herpes

There are a number of scientific studies and papers documenting excellent results in the treatment of Herpes Simplex and Herpes Zoster with ozone therapy. It is reported that when an attack is in progress, treatments on a daily basis for 7 – 10 days usually cause complete disappearance of symptoms. If treatments are taken for 4 to 6 weeks on a daily basis, whether the symptoms are present or not, the viruses can be eradicated from the patient's system.

Over 30 % of our population is afflicted with cancer and the percentage is increasing, in spite of the $billions being spent on cancer treatment and research. Unfortunately, remedies to treat the symptoms of cancer have been sought while the causes of cancer have been virtually ignored up until now.


What is most disturbing, is that the cause of cancer was discovered back in 1923 by a German biochemist, Dr. Otto Warburg, who received the 1931 Nobel Prize for doing so. In his book, "The Metabolism of Tumors" (London: Constable and Company. 1930), Dr. Warburg demonstrated that the primary cause of cancer was the replacement of oxygen in the respiratory chemistry of normal cells by the fermentation of sugar. The growth of cancer cells is a fermentation process, which can be initiated, only in the relative absence of oxygen, which means that a cancer cell is a plant cell.


Ever since Warburg's discovery, researchers have been attempting to stop the fermentation process through drugs, radiation and surgery, which, in some cases, has been temporarily successful. Although the National Cancer Institute verified Warburg's theories in the 1950s, very little work has been done to determine the causes of a lack of oxygen to the human body. Along with finding ways to stop the fermentation process, we must also determine ways of getting more oxygen to all our healthy cells to prevent the initiation of the fermentation process.


All normal cells (animal cells) within our bodies need oxygen to survive, and give off carbon dioxide as a waste product. If we upset this delicate balance within our bodies, nature's way of reacting is the growth of plant cells (cancer, fungi, candida, etc.)
When one considers the monumental increase of carbon dioxide (over 20%) in the atmosphere during the past several decades and the alarming decrease of oxygen content in the air we breathe (from 38% down to 19%) one can understand the seemingly inexorable rise of cancer among us.


The good news is that 50 years of practice in Europe and numerous test studies utilizing oxygen/ozone therapy have proven that by increasing the oxygen content within our bodies, we will displace more carbon dioxide. We then become much healthier and do not provide an anaerobic (lack of oxygen) atmosphere for the fermentation process to produce cancer cells. In addition to the encouraging success rate that these studies demonstrate, it must be noted that not one fatality or adverse side effect has been attributed to the proper administration of oxygen/ozone therapy.
It is unfortunate that up until now the US medical authorities have been painfully slow in their investigation of the beneficial uses of ozone. However, the sixth World Ozone Conference held in Washington, DC during May 1983, procured many astounding papers on the medical and therapeutic uses of ozone. They ran the full gamut of topics from Cancer to Herpes to Rheumatoid Arthritis, written by world-recognized specialists in their fields. These papers concluded that:

1.OZONE removes unwanted bacteria and viruses from the blood, the same way it does with water.
2.The possibility of becoming infected with hepatitis, AIDS virus, syphilis or other infectious disease through blood transfusions could be eliminated by the use of OZONE.
3.OZONE is highly effective in peripheral vascular disease so that persons suffering from gangrene, or leg ulcers, may not have to have their limbs amputated.
4.OZONE is effective in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, arteriosclerosis in general, and hypercholesterolemia, and promptly restores circulation, relieves angina pain, and improves brain circulation and function.
5.With OZONE, cancerous Tumors, Lymphomas and Leukemia may be eliminated without the use of surgery, radiation or chemotherapy.
6.OZONE is highly effective for all forms of Rheumatoid and Arthritis Collagen disease.
7.OZONE is very effective for Allergies of all types.
8.OZONE improves Multiple Sclerosis, and other Neurological Diseases, ameliorates the loss of brain function in Alzheimer's Disease and senility, as well as in Parkinson's Disease, by reversing the aging process.
9.External use of OZONE is very effective in treating ACNE, burns, leg ulcers, open sores and wounds, Eczema, fungus and other skin disorders.
10.Rectal insufflating with OZONE if effective for Proctitis, Colitis, Prostatitis, anal fissure, Candidacies; vaginal insufflating is effective for Cadidiasis and other yeast infections, Trichamoniasis and other forms of vaginitis; bladder insufflating is effective for Cystitis and bladder fistulas, as well as cancer.
11.AIDS, Herpes, Hepatitis Mononucleosis, and cirrhosis of the liver have been successfully treated with OZONE, without the use of any drugs or medicines.
12.The application of OZONE is virtually painless, has no adverse side effects and is extremely cost-effective for both physicians and patients.
13.As of 1985, over fifteen countries had allowed the use of OZONE therapy, and of all the thousands of patients successfully treated, there has not been one single death or serious reaction reported clearly related to the use of OZONE.

We believe it borders on criminal to disallow ozone therapy from becoming mainstream in the U.S.A.  Until ozone therapy is allowed, Germany seems to be our best option for all types of ozone therapies.  We hope that someday this subject is brought to the forefront via investigative reports and media reports, but that is not likely as "big business" in the U.S. is intertwined with the government, the media, the stock market, and of course large drug companies.
