SO YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT TRYING OZONE - David Sterling

So you're thinking about trying ozone therapy! It is important to know what you are getting yourself into. Ozone is not a silver bullet. Ozone is part of a whole lifestyle change. If you don't think that you can commit yourself to change, then don't. Change requires time, effort and patience. It is not something that will come and go in a matter of months. The basic premise is that you are cleaning out the toxic wastes that your body has been storing which are providing an environment the encourages growth of pathogens and suppresses the immune system. It will take time and effort to clean up the situation.

What are you trying to accomplish in doing ozone therapy? Take a moment and analyze your life. What types of food do you eat? Do you smoke and drink? Are you taking any drugs, either prescription or non-prescription? Have you had chemotherapy or radiation or metal poisoning in your lifetime? These are all factors to be considered.

The body is 2/3 water. How dirty this water is depends on how you have run your life. The more junk food you've eaten; the more you've smoked and drank; the more drugs you've put into your body; the more toxic you are. The more toxic you are, the longer it will take ozone to do it's job. You are going to have to make some lifestyle changes. The healthier you eat, the better off you are going to be. You should consider eliminating meat from your diet, and switch to vegetarianism, gradually. Care must be taken to ensure a balanced diet. There are many good books on the subject at this site's book store. Remember that the blood pH should be maintained at about 7.3 - 7.4.

Juicing is a great way to get nutrients. Try to get a juicer which uses the pulp as well, because half of the nutrients are int the pulp. Try and buy local organic produce when possible, to avoid the pesticides used on imported produce. Make sure you wash all fruits and vegetables prior to eating/juicing them. A 3% solution of food grade hydrogen peroxide and pure water is great for this purpose.

If you smoke and drink, you should stop. If you are a non-prescription drug user, you should stop. You should examine which prescribed drugs you are on as well. If you are taking AZT or DDI, this will not be compatible with ozone therapy, because the ozone will attack the drug and be used up before it can do the work on stored toxins.

Antibiotics are also bad for your system. Over a period of time, they depress the immune system and destroy beneficial bacteria. You will find the ozone itself will act as an antibiotic while enhancing your immune system.

You must also stop burning the candle at both ends. The body needs its proper rest periods. If you're not prepared to institute these changes, then don't attempt ozone.

What water do you drink and bathe in? Both should be as pure as possible. Do not drink tap water. Either buy bottled water cleaned with ozone, or purchase a reverse osmosis unit. You should attach a good filter to your shower head to eliminate chlorine from you shower/bathing water. Seeing that the skin breathes, it is not a good idea to be ingesting the chlorine that is used to sterilize the public water supplies. You may want to try 35% food grade peroxide as an inexpensive start to oxygenating your system. You can take it internally (for dosage schedule, refer to Ed Mc Cabe's book "Oxygen Therapies"), but it is best to bathe in it (8 oz. in a tub of warm unchlorinated water, soak 30 minutes).

If you have decided ozone is the way to go, there are some things you should think about. A good set-up will cost you about $2,500. This includes the price of an ozone generator, an oxygen regulator, and the purchase of an oxygen tank. After the initial outlay, you can expect to go through about $30 worth of oxygen per month. For IV injections, you must use oxygen from a tank only. For other treatments, such as rectal insufflations, you can get away with using as oxygen concentrator, although they are expensive to buy.

The more serious the disease, the more aggressive you have to be with the ozone therapy. There are many accepted ways to introduce ozone into the body. Some of these include: drinking ozonated water; ozone body bagging; rectal insufflations; vaginal insufflation; and direct IV injection into a vein.

For the first few months, you will have to set aside time for yourself to do the ozone therapy. As said before, ozone is not a silver bullet. It takes a lot of work and dedication. At first, you can expect to spend AT LEAST a couple of hours a day doing ozone. If you decide to attempt direct IV injections, how do you plan to facilitate this? Do you have someone qualified to do this for you, or are you going to attempt to do this yourself? Self-injection is not easy, and requires practice. It will take you at least a week to perfect this. You can expect to have bruised arms before you get it right. Remember that you will be doing as injection a day for several weeks.

You must also be prepared to perform some sort of colonic (enema) process to clean your colon. As the body detoxifies, you must ensure that your colon is kept clean so that the toxins are eliminated and not reabsorbed. If you are considering rectal insufflations, you must clean yourself out (using an colonic/enema) prior to using the ozone, each and every time. For some, this is not a pleasant thought, but it is a necessity in rectal insufflation.

Do not expect to feel good for a while. As ozone starts to do it's job, you may experience one or more of the following: unusual fatigue; fever; night sweats; diarrhea; nausea. Ozone wil generally force toxins out of the body the way they were put in. The more toxic your body is, the stronger these reactions will be. This initial detoxification process could last from several weeks to several months. Do not despair, you will eventually feel better. You can expect to see results, but only if you're committed to the program.

It will not be easy, but you will see results. After the initial detoxification, you wll have to go on a maintenance program. This will also be dependent on the individual person. Ozone may always be a part of your new healthy lifestyle, protecting you from toxic buildup and resultant disease in the future. Back To Contents
