Holistic Veterinarian Practice Series: #1. What is Ozone?

Ozone is O3 (3 oxygen atoms combines) and forms an energetic molecule that readily donates it’s third oxygen atom to free radicals that are usually causing damage to our bodies through oxidation. If there is Ozone present in our bodies then the oxidation damage caused by these free radicals is halted because the free radicals [...]

Ozone strengthens your pet’s immune system. Ozone is a potent regulator of the immune system. When your pet’s immune system is overactive (as in auto-immune disease), ozone will calm it down. On the other hand, when your pet’s immune system is under active as in chronic infections, ozone will stimulate it. This unique [...]

Holistic Veterinarian Practice Series: #3

Ozone kills bacteria and viruses on contact. Ozone interferes with the metabolism of bacterium-cells, most likely through inhibiting and blocking the operation of the enzymatic control system. A sufficient amount of ozone breaks through the cell membrane (shown above), and this leads to the destruction of the bacteria. Unlike bacteria, viruses multiply [...]

Ozone increases energy! Your pet breathes oxygen so that it can be used to create energy in their cells. Quite often this process does not occur very efficiently, especially when the pet begins to age or has been diagnosed with specific diseases. Ozone helps to ‘revitalize’ this process so that you can make more energy [...]

Holistic Veterinarian Practice Series: #5

Ozone increases the oxygen level of your pet’s cells It’s no secret that if we stop breathing for more than a few of minutes, we die. So too with our pet’s. Why? Oxygen enables our cells to make energy. Without oxygen our cells can’t make energy, and without the energy generated from our cells we [...]

Holistic Veterinarian Practice Series: #7

Ozone can kill unhealthy and cancer cells. How? The way ozone kills unhealthy cells, and not healthy cells, is through enzymes. All healthy cells have three enzymes that protect them from being oxidized. All healthy cells love oxygen and require it to operate properly. Every cell is really an oxygen burning machine. Unhealthy and cancer [...]

Ozone Reduces Inflammation

It’s simple, Ozone reduces inflammation in your Pet…..and You! Inflammation is medically defined as a localized reaction that produces redness, warmth, swelling, and pain as a result of infection, irritation, or injury. Inflammation can be external or internal. Ozone alters immune function by causing controlled oxidation (a reaction in which the [...]

Ozone as a Medicine

After nearly five decades characterized by empiricism and several pitfalls, some of the basic mechanisms of action of ozone in pulmonary toxicology and in veterinary medicine have been clarified. We now understand that prolonged inhalation of ozone can be very dangerous first for the lungs and successively for the whole organism. However, in veterinary medicine [...]

Ozone, Theory and Perspective

The newest scientific literature provides a comprehensive framework for understanding and recommending ozone therapy as a first choice in some veterinary procedures and diseases and in combination with orthodox veterinary therapy in many others. One important characteristic of ozone therapy is that, in comparison to other holistic approaches, it can be experimentally verified both at [...]

Ozone and Postoperative Pain

Since all analgesics (pain killers) currently available for use in dogs have been associated with some adverse effects, the search for an effective analgesic that does not cause harm to the dog is important. THE STUDY A recent study investigated the postoperative analgesic effects of ozone administered either intrarectally or into acupoints in bitches undergoing [...]
