Popis: Ozone therapy or Ozonated Autohemotherapy (O3-AHT) has been meticulously used for more than a century to improve cellular function and for quicker healing of diseased tissues. It involves administration of ozone as gas or in liquid form to kill the microorganisms. Furthermore, body provides more energy using oxygen and can eliminate wastes efficiently. Ozone is used by different health organizations for its disinfectant, antiseptic, quick healing properties, circulatory disorders, geriatric conditions, cancer, skin healing, AIDS, rheumatism/arthritis and in water treatment plants etc. It was found to be consistent safe, with minimal and preventable side effects. It should be introduced into the body in large quantities so that the singlet oxygen molecule which is unattached and freely circulating will attack all immature, sick and deformed foreign cells. Availability of ozone in gaseous state further limits its use; hence some special techniques should be designed through strong R&D input which can make this technique widely accepted. Initially ozone was believed to have treacherous effects, yet researchers alleged that it may have therapeutic benefits which directed researchers to study and synchronize its use with the current medical practices. © 2011 IGJPS.
