Ozone is oxygen in its most active state and is an extremely potent oxidant that has been shown to posses broad spectrum antimicrobial activity. Ozone also has indirect actions on our immune systems. It stimulates Th1 cytokines while at the same time down regulates Th2 cytokines.
Ozone therapy is a means to deliver oxygen to the body’s cells and has been proven to treat a variety of illnesses such as HIV, cancer cells, autoimmune disease, arthritis and pain, infection, colds and flu. This is important because, unlike healthy cells that love oxygen, disease causing viruses, bacteria, parasites and fungi are almost all anaerobic, meaning that they use sugar to survive instead of oxygen and cannot survive in an oxygenated environment
Major Autohemotherapy (MAHT) with O3 is used for general immunoactivation in patients with a low immune status and/or immune deficit. It thus brings about an immuno-modulator effect the lymphocyte subpopulations and is very effective in treatment of autoimmune disorders- multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis etc.
Routes of administratin of Ozone are -
[1] Intravenous therapy
[2] Vaginal or rectal insufflations
[3] Autohaemotherapy
[4] External limb bagging
[5] Ozonated olive oil
The oxidative effect of ozone can also be harmful. To prevent such effects, it is best to take a good anti-oxidant combination for 7 days before starting intravenous ozone therapy.
Ozone therapy is contraindicated in the following: Recent heart attack, pregnancy, recent internal bleeding, hyperthyroidism, thrombopaenia and alcoholic intoxication.
