Three O2 + electrical spark/ lightning= 2 O3. It is very reactive and will return to 3 O2 molecules giving high levels of O2. Healthy cells need Oxygen • Ozone is one of the most beneficial substances on this planet, and the BAD science you hear quoted on the news every night is causing you to subconsciously be afraid of nature, and therefore, a part of life itself. They tell you that somehow hydrogen plus nitrogen or sulfur equals ozone. H + N + S = 03? Not on this planet it doesn't! What is ozone? Simply, oxygen. Three atoms of nature's oxygen. It exists in a very active form for about 30 minutes before breaking down into two atoms of regular oxygen - by giving up one atom of singlet oxygen. Where does ozone come from? Nature. And nature is efficient. The new growth in the forests, the trees, the grass on your front lawn, and the plankton in the ocean are continually creating oxygen. • • If you have seen Inconvenient Truth, the Al Gore documentary on Global warming, there is one scene that brings it all together. In one section he discusses the CO2 levels over the Pacific Ocean. In addition to the original measurements that began in 1965, they were able to measure the levels from hundreds of years ago by taking samples from deep within glaciers.

Its effects are proven, consistent, safe and with minimal and preventable side effects. Medical ozone is used to disinfect and treat disease. Mechanism of actions is by inactivation of bacteria, viruses, fungi, yeast, and protozoa, stimulation of oxygen metabolism, activation of the immune system.” Elvis, A.M.

Ozone OZONE (O3)? can also be produced from medical grade oxygen and use of an ozone generator. Ozone in small concentrations is safe and effective in preventing and treating a host of different illnesses and diseases. The oxygen that we breathe and circulate in our bodies contain two oxygen atoms (O2). Ozone is made up of three oxygen atoms (O3). You may be wondering how does ozone change into oxygen? An ozone molecule is eager to give away one of its oxygen atoms. When two of the "freed up" oxygen atoms connect and bond together a new oxygen molecules is created; O + O => O2 (oxygen!). This process is called oxidation. Vitality Medical Infusions Ozone Therapy 1/3 If Ozone is so Ozone is not a "drug" that can be patented by drug companies & BIG PHARMA.

Abstract: Low-dose ozone acts as a bioregulator in chronic inflammatory diseases, biochemically char- acterized by high oxidative stress and a blocked regulation. During systemic applications, “Ozone peroxides” are able to replace H2O2 in its specific function of regulation, restore redox signaling, and improve the antioxidant capacity. Two different mechanisms have to be understood. Firstly, there is the direct mechanism, used in topical treatments, mostly via radical reactions. In systemic treatments, the indirect, ionic mechanism is to be discussed: “ozone peroxide” will be directly reduced by the glutathione system, informing the nuclear factors to start the regulation. The GSH/GSSG balance outlines the ozone dose and concentration limiting factor. Antioxidants are regulated, and in the case of inflammatory diseases up-regulated; cytokines are modulated, here downregulated.

Others might not want their names listed for business, legal, or other reasons. You might go to www.acam.org or www.icimed.org to look for a listing of integrative doctors in your area. Many list some form of oxidation therapy in their practice summary on these sites. Generally these doctors will know who in their area offers oxidation. I have included contact information, the date of training with us (if available), and specific oxidation techniques these professionals currently offer, as these professionals so informed me. I will update this list as more are trained, or more previously trained indicate that they wish to be listed. Please note that I have limited the listing of services provided here to those services related to oxidation only. Most, if not all of these fine healers will offer chelation, other IV and detoxification services, and perhaps many other healing modalities. I have not listed those services here. Any physician wise enough to use oxidation, in my humble opinion, will offer a great home for overall healing. Please note that high dose intravenous (IV) vitamin C is an oxidation therapy!

While some scientific evidence exists regarding some CAM therapies, for most there are key questions that are yet to be answered through well-designed scientific studies-questions such as whether these therapies are safe and whether they work for the diseases or medical conditions for which they are used. Complementary medicine is used together with conventional medicine. Complementary medicine proposes to add to a proven medical treatment. Alternative medicine is used in place of conventional medicine. Alternative means the proposed method would possibly replace an already proven and accepted medical intervention. NCCIM classifies CAM therapies into 5 categories or domains: • Whole Medical Systems. These alternative medical systems are built upon complete systems of theory and practice. These systems have evolved apart from, and earlier than, the conventional medical approach used in the U.S. Examples include: homeopathic and naturopathic medicine, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, Macrobiotics, Naprapathy and Polarity Therapy. • Mind-Body Medicine. Mind-body interventions use a variety of techniques designed to enhance the mind’s capacity to affect bodily functions and symptoms. Some techniques have become part of mainstream practice, such as patient support groups and cognitive-behavioral therapy.

    Healing Cancer Naturally Breast Cancer and Cancer Bacteria Suppressed and forgotten cancer microbe research could hold the key to the cause and cure of this dread disease 2004 by Alan Cantwell, Jr., M.D. P.O.Box 29532, Los Angeles, CA 90029 Email: alancantwell at sbcglobal.net Despite a century of cancer research the cause of breast cancer remains unknown. Age, diet, stress, hormone factors, genetic predisposition, and cancer viruses are all suspected as possible causative factors, but totally ignored are infectious bacteria which have been implicated in breast cancer, as well as other forms of cancer. Over the past century physicians such as James Young, John Nuzum, Virginia Livingston, and numerous other researchers have reported on the existence of a specific microbe associated with cancer. The microbe is a ubiquitous, pleomorphic organism with a complex life cycle. A review of this literature suggests that the cancer microbe plays an important role in the development of malignancy. Because the etiology of cancer remains unknown, this research deserves further examination and reaappraisal. William Russell (1852-1940) and ”the parasite of cancer” A century ago when major diseases like tuberculosis, leprosy, and syphilis were discovered to be bacterial (not viral) infections, many physicians suspected bacteria might also cause cancer. At the close of the nineteenth century ( when the science of microbiology was in its infancy), many different microbes (variously called ”cancer coccidia,” ”sporozoons” and ”cancer parasites”) were cultured

By the turn of the 20 Century organized medicine had come to the conclusion that it was not a matter of whether infectious disease caused cancer, but which one. Then, in 1910, certain American medical powers did a 180-degree rotation –abruptly deciding that cancer was not caused by a microbe. This flew in the face of over two hundred years of research in which a Actinomycetalescancer germ had been discovered and rediscovered. Of all the infectious possibilities for cancer, unquestionably the one class of microbes that has been long recognized to most consistently mimic and imitate ‘cancer’ at both clinical and tissue levels are the mycobacteria of the family of which tuberculosis and leprosy are premier examples. The association of TB with carcinoma was initially described about 200 years ago by Bayle who considered the lung malignancy ‘cavitation cancereuse’ to merely be one of the various types of tuberculosis. Ever since, almost as if in reflex to the obvious –the potential association between TB and subsequent development of cancer has drawn active investigation.
