Ozone therapy, a revolutionary medical treatment producing far reaching results in human health care has now become a reality and is being practiced in the world today. With the noble intention of bringing up a healthy humanity such a privileged medical specialization is made available. It is blissful realization that millions of people in the world are going to be very fortunate in having such a splendid medical therapy. This therapy, first of it's kind in the world, is being offered by Ozoneuniversity.com. This includes ozone therapy, a therapeutic diet and therapeutic counseling sharing the harmony as a whole.

Ozone therapy is the most powerful cleansing modality. Ozone is produced by lightening in nature and by pulsing high currents of electricity through medical grade oxygen. Oxygen is O2 and Ozone is O3. Ozone is very powerful in that it increases the stability of normal good healthy cells and it destroys all those immature, sick and deformed cells, which are foreign to the body, like viruses, bacteria, fungi etc. Ozone is an energized form of a super charged molecule classified scientifically as O3, O4, O5 etc. chemically, Ozone is oxygen with an extra molecule added. Electrically, Ozone is oxygen with a higher energy level. It is unstable and highly reactive. Singlet oxygen O1 is a highly reactive free radical that acts as a scavenger of other free radicals .The oxygen reacts with them to render them harmless, there by protecting cells from damage. Oxygen is the most vital element required for human life and it is the key to good health. The best way to optimize health is to oxygenate every cell in our body. The more oxygen we have in our system, the more energy we produce. The more efficiently we can eliminate wastes.

1. Ozone Therapy stimulates the production of white blood cells. These cells protect the body from viruses, bacteria, fungi and cancer. If, deprived of oxygen, these cells malfunction. They fail to eliminate invaders and even turn against normal, healthy cells (allergic reactions). Ozone significantly raises the oxygen levels in the blood for long periods after ozone administration; as a result, allergies have a tendency to become desensitized.

2. Interferon levels are significantly increased. Interferons are globular proteins. Interferons orchestrate every aspect of the immune system, inhibit viral replication.

3. Ozone Therapy stimulates the production of Tumor Necrosis Factor. TNF is produced by the body when a tumor is growing. Ozone stimulates the secretion of IL-2. Interluekin-2 is one of the cornerstones of the immune system. It is secreted by T-helpers. T-helper causes it to produce more IL-2. Ozone's main duty is to induce Lymphocytes to differentiate and proliferate, yielding more T-helpers, T-suppressors, cytotoxic T's, T-delayed's and T-memory cells.

4. Ozone Therapy kills most bacteria at low concentrations. The metabolism of most bacteria is on average one-seventeenth as efficient as our own.

5. Ozone is effective against all types of fungi. This includes systemic candida albicans, athlete's foot, molds, mildews, yeasts, and even mushrooms.

6. Ozone fights viruses in a variety of ways. As discussed above, ozone also goes after the viral particles directly.

7. Ozone is antineoplastic. This means that ozone inhibits the growth of new tissue because rapidly dividing cells shift their priorities away from producing the enzymes needed to protect themselves from the ozone. Cancer cells are rapidly-dividing cells and are inhibited by ozone.

8. Ozone oxidizes arterial plaque. It breaks down the plaque involved in both Arteriosclerosis and Arthrosclerosis.

9. This means ozone has a tendency to clear blockages of large and even smaller vessels. This allows for better tissue oxygenation in deficient organs.

10. Ozone increases the flexibility and elasticity of red blood cells.

11. Ozone accelerates the Citric Acid Cycle. Also known as the Krebs Cycle or TCA Cycle, this is a very important step in the glycolysis of carbohydrates for energy.

12. Ozone makes the antioxidant enzyme system more efficient.

13. Ozone degrades petrochemicals. These chemicals have a potential to place a great burden on the immune system.

Oxidation is the process of passing electrons from one substance to another. An oxidant receives electrons. The substance that gives them up is oxidized. So ozone (and oxygen to a lesser extent) is an oxidant because it receives electrons, as it binds to the other substance, which gives up the electrons.

Oxygen has a negative electrical oxidation potential. To make ozone, oxygen is passed through a tube where billions of electrons are freely available. With the addition of these electrons, the oxygen becomes energized and super active, and its negative electrical oxidation potential becomes even more negative.

Yet, it apparently now has a huge appetite for even more electrons. How can the ozone want even more electrons, after just being injected with billions of them? This is not explained by present theory. It is better to look at it from the point of view of spin, just like the way a kid's top spins.

An oxygen molecule is spinning at a certain rate, and if it collides with objects of an opposite spin, some of its spin energy is imparted to the other object, altering it. If electricity is pumped into the oxygen, as happens in an ozone tube, the spin increases a great deal. Now, when the ozone molecule with its greater spin bumps into another object, it has enough energy to destroy the other object, such as a bacteria, by blowing a hole in the wall (called cell lysis). This model explains why ozone, created by adding energy, has more effect than plain oxygen.

Vitamin C and other so-called antioxidants compete with ozone at the cell wall. Ozone is neutralized (short circuited) by these antioxidants. However, it has been shown that ozone does not deplete Vitamin C. If you do the ozone first, its effects are completed in 10 to 20 minutes. Then you can take the antioxidants without any interference.

The assumption in the promotional literature is that "free radical" = "bad guy". It is not that simple. No chemical reaction can occur without the creation of free radicals (unpaired charges, positive or negative). Therefore, all life is dependent on them. Free radicals are being created in your body each second, by the billions. If they weren't, you would be dead instantly.

The body is perfectly designed to handle free radicals, and the free radical scavenger enzymes (glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, reductase, and catalase) are easily able to handle any left-over free radicals from normal body processes. The trouble comes when toxins are allowed to build up in the system because we do not eat, exercise and cleanse our bodies properly. These toxins prevent the enzymes from physically contacting the free radicals, allowing the radicals to escape their birthplace and do damage elsewhere, where the enzymes can't find them.

So the cause of the problem is not with the free radicals themselves, which are necessary, but rather with the build up of toxins that allows the free radicals to hide and escape neutralization by the scavenger enzymes. The solution is not to take expensive artificial anti-oxidants. The solution is to take an oxidant -- ozone -- to clean out the toxins, and allow the free radical scavenger enzymes to do their work.

As a side benefit, it has been verified many times in tests that the levels of natural free radical scavengers in the body greatly increases under the BENEFICIAL OXIDATIVE FREE RADICAL STRESS provided by ozone therapy.

The Nature of Viruses

Viruses are intracellular parasites. They require a living host cell in order to replicate and to infect new hosts. Viruses have been enormously successful in parasitizing most known forms of living organisms in both the animal and plant world.

Components of Viruses

1. Nucleic acid core. At the core of viruses is genetic material which encodes the transcription of all viral components, mostly proteins (such as enzymes). This genetic material is either RNA or DNA, never both. The nucleic acid may be single or double stranded. Viral nucleic acid has been described as the software program for making copies of the virus.

2. The nucleic acid coat or capsid. Surrounding the core is a protective coating made of protein, called the capsid. The capsid is rigid and determines the shape of the virus. It is made of repeating protein units called capsomeres.

A number of diseases afflicting humans, animals and plants are, in contemporary times, stimulating great interest. This is due to the fact that these conditions do not follow traditional trajectories of infectivity, and that the responsible infective agents have poorly understood structural configurations and/or mechanisms of action.

Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSEs) occur in humans and animals, and are characterized by progressive pathological effects upon the nervous system, invariably resulting in death. As their names suggest, they produce, usually over long periods of time, neuronal loss and gliosis, leading to microlacunae in brain tissue, which are apt to fill, by unknown mechanisms, with amyloid-like deposits.

Human TSEs include Creuzfeldt-Jacob disease (CJD), Familial fatal insomnia (FFI), Kuru, and Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker disease (GSS).

Animal TSEs include Scrapie in sheep, Feline spongiform encephalopathy (FSE), Chronic wasting disease in deer and ungulates, and of most concern in current times, Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE). This concern is derived from evidence of transmission of TSEs from animals to humans.

These diseases were suspected of having viral origins, until the 1960's when T Alper suggested that the scrapie agent might have the capacity of replicating without the presence of nucleic acid. In 1982, S Prusiner coined the word prion, to stand for a new class of infective agents with highly novel characteristics.

The inactivation of viral particles by ozone may take place by a variety of mechanisms which range from direct physico-chemical effects to more indirect immunological pathways. Virions coated by a lipid glycoprotein envelope such as rectoviruses, hepatitis B and C, Herpes 1 and 2, and Epstein-Barr among others, are vulnerable to the influence of ozone by its intense oxidizing properties.

In retroviruses for example, which possess a glycolipid encapsulation, ozone confronts the double bond sites in its matrix thus destroying its architecture. Without its envelope, the virus perishes.(60) In virions which lack a lipid envelope but whose nucleic acids are surrounded by a protein capsid such as those of the minovirus family, ozone may diffuse through the protein coating and deform or cleave the genome core. Viruses, unlike cells, lack enzymes designed to repair injured DNA or RNA, and are incapacitated by this process.

In major autohemotherapy, relatively large amounts of blood are treated with ozone, then reinfused into the patient. The dosage and concentration of ozone administered is carefully calibrated so that maximal antiviral action is mobilized while at the same time sparing the integrity and viability of the cellular elements. Viruses are small, denuded of complex defenses,(63) and vulnerable to the oxidative challenge of ozone. Cells, in contrast, are large and incorporate a multiplicity of homeostatic mechanisms. There are developing technologies which are designed to treat whole blood in a manner similar to the dialysis process.
