Ozone therapy is probably the most powerful of the oxygen therapies as ozone is more active than the other two main methods – hyperbaric oxygen and hydrogen peroxide therapy. ... Ozone is an activated, trivalent (three atoms) form of oxygen. Oxygen is O2 whereas ozone is O3. Over a period of 20-30 minutes, ozone breaks down into two atoms of regular oxygen - by giving up one atom of singlet oxygen. Medical ozone is made when Medical Grade Oxygen is electrically activated (using an ozone generator) to form ozone. Ozone is germicidal, bactericidal, and fungicidal. Oxygen has these properties too, but less strongly. 1, record 1, English, - ozone%20therapy

Thérapie par l'ozone. L'ozone, O3 , est une particule instable qui résulte de l'exposition de l'oxygène à une énergie plus élevée. [...] En introduisant directement O3 dans le système sanguin, ce dernier s'enrichit en oxygène. Ce procédé permet de renforcer toutes les cellules du corps, les organes, les systèmes vitaux et particulièrement le système immunitaire. La réduction du nombre d'organismes parasitaires, après traitement, est considérable. Cette légère ozonification du sang est particulièrement recommandée aux terrains allergiques. Elle peut être appliquée en une séance, une fois par an. 3, record 1, French, - th%C3%A9rapie%20par%20l%27ozone

Ozone itself is a form of oxygen, O3, produced when ultraviolet light or an electric spark passes through air or oxygen. It is a toxic gas that creates free radicals, the opposite of what antioxidant vitamins do. Oxidation, however, is good when it occurs in harmful foreign organisms that have invaded the body. Ozone inactivates many disease bacteria and viruses. 1, record 2, English, - oxygen%2Fozone%20therapy

L'ozone est une forme particulière d'oxygène. Alors que l'oxygène atmosphérique normal contient des molécules de 2 atomes, l'ozone est une molécule d'oxygène de 3 valeurs avec des propriétés complètement différentes, si bien que l'ozone est dissout dans le sang 15 fois plus rapidement que l'oxygène. 7, record 2, French, - th%C3%A9rapie%20par%20l%27oxyg%C3%A8ne%20et%20l%27ozone
