Question 1

Is ozone dangerous?

Accepted Answer

Ozone has been found to be an extremely safe medical therapy, free from side effects. In a 1980 study done by the German Medical Society for Ozone Therapy, 644 therapists were polled regarding their 384,775 patients, comprising a total of 5,579,238 ozone treatments administered. There were only 40 cases of side effects noted out of this number, which represents an incredibly low rate of 0.000007%, and only four were fatalities. Ozone has thus proven to be the safest medical therapy ever devised.

The American EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) scares many people away from ozone by having performed erroneous tests. They used corona discharge generators that were air-fed. Therefore, the ozone was contaminated with nitric oxide. They admitted at the 1999 Verona Conference that their results were flawed because of failure to control this contaminant. This safety concern does not apply to Ohen units because they use pure medical-grade oxygen.

Question 2

Is inhaling ozone harmful?

Accepted Answer

This question is asked a lot. First, a distinction needs to be made between inhaling ozone directly, raw, versus inhaling ozone that is bubbled through olive oil. Inhaling raw ozone is harmful to the lung tissue and will cause extreme coughing immediately as well as vomiting. Ozone should never be inhaled directly in this way. For inhalation of ozone, the ozone gas needs to first pass through a measured volume of olive oil based on the concentration of ozone after which it is safe and very beneficial to inhale for respiratory issues such as asthma and seasonal allergies.

Secondly, inhaling ozone produced from ambient air is harmful due to the presence of nitric oxide (see question above). Ozone produced from pure medical grade oxygen is free of contaminates and is safe.

Question 3

Can I be allergic to ozone?

Accepted Answer

It is not possible to be allergic to ozone. The body actually makes it. Additionally, ozone breaks down in the body into oxygen and therefore you cannot be any more allergic to ozone than you could be allergic to oxygen. Contrary to what allopathic ozone doctors say, ozone is not a drug either. It is at its most basic explanation, oxygen carrying an electric charge.

Question 4

Why is the smell of ozone so bad?

Accepted Answer

The dislike of the smell of ozone is one of the best markers of toxicity in the body. People who are clean and completely health generally love the fresh smell.

Question 5

Does ozone speed up the aging process?

Accepted Answer

Aging and disease are caused by a lack of oxidation in the body. Oxidation leads to energy. Ozone is an oxidation agent.

Dr Saul Pressmen explains this; “Your life force depends on oxidation. The more oxidation in your body, the more energy you have. The more oxygen free radicals in your body, the more light your body can create. The more light created, the higher your level of functioning and intelligence. Eat a good diet with plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits, and supplemental minerals (calcium, magnesium, chromium, iron for ladies) do regular liver cleanses, do ozone daily, go out in the sun for at least 15 minutes every day, eat sardines, drink flax oil and chlorophyll and aloe, and take brewer's yeast and sublingual B12 daily. Forget everything else.”
