						 Introduction: The purpose of this manuscript is to provide a narrative review of the literature and the basis of ozone therapy to treat viral illnesses including COVID-19 therapy.
Methods: We performed a narrative review of 239 relevant publications and present new data not previously published from our group.
Result: Ozone, a tri-atomic oxygen molecule is a natural substance made by the human white blood cells and metabolized into hydrogen peroxide and many lipo-peroxidases. Ozone is one of the most important modulators of the human immune system. Many investigators purport multiple potential mechanisms by which ozone treats a variety of viral and other illnesses at the atomic and cellular levels. While these mechanisms are operative, they represent passive events resulting from the ozone’s impartation of re.. Read More»
