O3 not only remedied infection, but also had hemodynamic and anti-inflammatory properties
Stimulation of oxygen metabolism
In fungi, O3 inhibits cell growth at certain stages
With viruses, the O3 damages the viral capsid and upsets the reproductive cycle by disrupting the virus-to-cell contact with peroxidation.
Inactivation of bacteria, viruses, fungi, yeast and protozoa: Ozone therapy disrupts the integrity of the bacterial cell envelope through oxidation of the phospholipids and lipoproteins
Activation of the immune system
30 and 55 μg/cc
production of interferon and the greatest output of tumor necrosis factor and interleukin-2
Mechanism of action of O3 on the human lung
cascade of reactions like peroxidation of lipids leading to changes in membrane permeability,[41] lipid ozonation products (LOP) act as signal transducer molecules
Dietary antioxidants or free radical scavengers like vitamin E, C, etc., can prevent aforementioned effects of O3
Ozone therapy appears to support NK cell and other immune cells when used in conjunction with chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone in the treatment of lymphoma
