Ozone's Therapeutic Effect on COVID-19 Patients
- Ozone is an unstable molecule that serves as a strong oxidizing agent
- Ozone has anti-inflammatory properties, and serves as an immunomodulator
- When ozone breaks down, it causes blood vessels to become dilated
- Ozone’s impact is dependent on its dosage
- Ozone messengers (ROS and LOPs) provide therapeutic effects
- ROS acts on blood
- LOPs impact the organs in the body
- ROS increases oxygen uptake by red blood cells (preventing hypoxemia) and stimulates white blood cells
- Ozone releases cytokines (which is known to cause inflammation) but can block the NF-kB pathway
- Ozone decrease the number of IL-6 receptors being activated
