"Although ozone pollution has been regulated since 1971, there are still 62 areas, mostly major cities, that have not yet attained the national standards for ozone levels. Los Angeles—Ozone Capital of the World Year-round sunshine, a car-centered life-style, and a geographical location favorable to air inversions all combine to help Los Angeles violate the ozone standards 140 times a year. Still, this is an improvement over the past. The number of days city air exceeds the recommended level is now down from over 300 in the 1970s to the present 140." - Linda Mason Hunter, The Healthy Home: An Attic-to-Basement Guide to Toxin-Free Living (Get the book.)

"They assist in detoxification by breaking down hydrocarbons, such as petrochemicals and chemical pesticides, into carbon dioxide and water through the promotion of ozone formation in the environment that they are infused into. Lavender oil appears to accomplish healing by building up the nutritional state of the cells in the base of the ulcer and by killing all fungi, parasites and bacteria encountered in the ulcer (oxygen from ozone kills these organisms). The lavender oil is supplied sterile in 1/8-ounce bottles." - James A. Howenstine, A Physician's Guide to Natural Health Products That Work (Get the book.)

"The thinning of the ozone layer leaves kids today more vulnerable than ever to UV radiation. The Environmental Protection Agency has developed an educational program (available on the Web at www.epa.gov/sunwise) to teach kids about how to protect themselves from harmful UV radiation. The EPA SunWise program also lists these common-sense "action steps" kids (and their parents) can take to minimize exposure: • Stay out of the sun in the middle of the day. The sun's rays are strongest between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m." - Deirdre Imus, Growing Up Green: Baby and Child Care: Volume 2 in the Bestselling Green This! Series (Green This!) (Get the book.)

"In addition, it should be noted that such electric motors emit minute amounts of ozone, a rare form of oxygen, which is highly toxic. ozone, of course, plays an essential role in the earth's atmosphere and there is justifiable concern over its disappearance over the poles. But American and Soviet scientists have found that humans may be endangered by exposure to fifty parts per billion of ozone in their immediate vicinity. Susceptible persons may be even more likely to incur damage from ozone in a closed environment." - Theron G. Randolph, An Alternative Approach to Allergies (Get the book.)

"Human-caused global warming has already shrunk ozone levels. Today's world temperatures are among the warmest on record. Increasingly, scientists are wondering whether accelerated thawing caused by humanity could precipitate dramatic, and premature, climatic change within a few centuries. Global warming is nothing new for humanity. Our remote forebears experienced even greater warmings as the world cycled from cold back to warmer conditions. But the world's population in earlier warm-ups numbered in the tens of thousands rather than the billions." - Brian Fagan, Floods, Famines, and Emperors: El Nino and the Fate of Civilizations (Get the book.)

"The plan allows the body's innate wisdom to restore beauty and balance through a variety of massage therapies, oxygen-enhanced rebounding, air-and-sun bathing, ozone therapies, hydrotherapy, infrared sauna, colon therapies, nature walks, and more. Toxins are removed from reproductive cells, and we experience weight reduction and rejuvenation. Includes some individually designed support. The fasts start every Tuesday! ZERO POINT PROCESS INTENSIVE Awaken from the dream of a separate "self" so that you may live without fear in the chaos of the world and embrace your true destiny!" - Gabriel Cousens, There Is a Cure for Diabetes: The Tree of Life 21-Day+ Program (Get the book.)

"The general consensus of opinion among researchers in this area is that this singularity in time lies in the first half of the twenty-first century—assuming, that is, that we do not in the meantime turn the planet into a nuclear wasteland, accidentally create a plague that destroys us all, or decimate the ozone layer to such an extent that the land becomes uninhabitable. Some, such as Vernor Vinge, a mathematician at San Diego State University, see the singularity to be a consequence of technological acceleration, with ultra-intelligent computers creating an exponential runaway effect." - Peter Russell, Waking Up In Time: Finding Inner Peace In Times of Accelerating Change (Get the book.)

"Debate rages about the effects of the loss of the ozone layer and the output from high-power electrical transmission lines on health. Despite reams of studies, we are left with contradictory guidelines about the safety of cell phones, microwave ovens, computers, and other electronics that emit low-level electromagnetic or magnetic fields. We know even less about how the huge fields of energy that encompass Earth affect us. For example, we are only now beginning to explore how the electromagnetic fields that fill the ionosphere impact us." - Peter h. Fraser and Harry Massey, Decoding the Human Body-Field: The New Science of Information as Medicine (Get the book.)

"The fine folks at Consumer Reports warn that many small room-size ionizing air cleaners (or "electrostatic precipitators") can generate ozone.25 As far as we're concerned, ozone is the last thing someone with allergies or asthma needs, since it can be irritating and decrease lung function. Our first choice in air-cleaning technology is the HEPA (high-efficiency particulate air) filter. These devices are made of densely packed fibers that look like thick paper. The filters are pleated or folded and look like a mini-accordion. That way they maximize the air's contact with the filter." - Joe Graedon, M.S. and Teresa Graedon, Ph.D., Best Choices From the People's Pharmacy (Get the book.)

"It can threaten the health of human beings, trees, lakes, crops, and animals, as well as damage the ozone layer and buildings. It also can cause haze, reducing visibility in national parks and wilderness areas. The substances that make up air pollution include gases such as sulfur dioxides, nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide; particulate matter such as smoke, dust, fumes, and aerosols; pesticides, chemicals, toxic elements, radioactive materials, and several other substances." - Brenda Watson and Leonard Smith, The Detox Strategy: Vibrant Health in 5 Easy Steps (Get the book.)

"Ground-level ozone is created when engine and fuel gases that have already been released into the air interact in the presence of sunlight. ozone levels increase in cities when the air is still, the sun is bright, and the temperature is warm. ozone irritates the respiratory tract and eyes, and exposure to high levels results in chest tightness, coughing, and wheezing. People with respiratory and heart problems are at a higher risk. Ozone has been linked to increased hospital admissions and premature death. It also causes noticeable leaf damage in many crops, garden plants, and trees." - David Hoffman, FNIMH, AHG, Medical Herbalism: The Science Principles and Practices Of Herbal Medicine (Get the book.)

"In the U.S. ozone therapy is usually taught privately or in naturopathic schools so it is wise to check the training and qualifications along with state regulations before beginning this type of therapy. USER COMMENTS: "I cured my asthma with the attachment where you breathe the ozone through olive oil. My asthma had been so bad that I couldn't even lie down when I slept and my MD had me on massive doses of steroids (which I stopped to do this therapy). It took five months, but I have remained asthma free with only occasional maintenance touch ups." - Alan E. Smith, UnBreak Your Health: The Complete Guide to Complementary & Alternative Therapies (Get the book.) "Since that time ozone therapy has been recognized in several countries around the world as an effective healing therapy. Two of the most popular books are Oxygen Therapies: A New Way of Approaching Disease by Ed McCabe (1988) and his latest work Flood Your Body With Oxygen (2002). The International Association for Oxygen Therapy was founded in 1972 to promote the use of ozone and other oxygen therapies. In the U.S." - Alan E. Smith, UnBreak Your Health: The Complete Guide to Complementary & Alternative Therapies (Get the book.)

"Grant has also pointed out that the stratospheric ozone layer is thinner in the west due to the prevailing westerlies, which push air across the Rocky Mountains, and, in doing so, push the tropopause up, thereby thinning the stratospheric ozone layer and lessening the filtration of UVB.75 Figure 2 shows the death rates for colon cancer among men in different areas of the USA. There is a very high rate of colon cancer in the Northeast. Of course, the area is low in altitude and high in latitude, which creates an extended "vitamin D winter." - Marc Sorenson, Solar Power For Optimal Health (Get the book.)

"Today, we see gaping holes developing in the ozone layer. Like the tragic effects of man-made chemicals on the soil, it is again the man-made chemicals that have unexpectedly sailed off into space damaging the ozone layer. OZONE DESTRUCTION Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC), a refrigerant sold under the name of freon, is the main chemical culprit. It rises into the stratosphere where it reacts with UV radiation from the sun. This breaks up the CFC, releasing two halogen molecules, chlorine (an oxidizing agent), and bromine, molecules that destroy the 87 UV-filtering ozone layer." - Dr Bernard Jenson and Mark Anderson, Empty Harvest (Get the book.)

"I read about everything: nutrition, raw food, juicing, kombucha tea, herbal medicine, yoga, Hulda Clark and Max Gerson and other alternative healers, ozone therapy, chelation, hypnotism, psychotherapy, the I Ching, and countless other therapies and schools of thought. For the most part, each group presented persuasive arguments to support their point of view. The raw foods people said that because we evolved from apes we should be eating only raw vegetables and fruits. The blood-type people said that your diet should be designed to work with and support the characteristics of your blood group." - Peter h.

"But I thought staying out in the sun too long gave you cancer, especially with all these changes in the ozone layer," I said. "Sure, if you burn easily and don't get much sun in the first place," Greg rejoined, still whispering. "It's different now than it was for our parents—you don't want to go out and fry yourself. Burns are bad but staying inside being afraid of the sun isn't healthy either." "Someone like Gozei," Greg continued, "who has a deep tan and is used to being outside all of the time, is optimizing her vitamin D." - Dan Buettner, The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer From the People Who've Lived the Longest (Get the book.)

"Hairsprays containing ethyl alcohol (ethanol, listed as SD alcohol followed by a number), hydrocarbons, isobutane, and butane all release vapors into the air that generate ozone in the lower atmosphere. While other human-made pollutants deplete the ozone in the upper atmosphere, emitting VOCs into the lower atmosphere produces an additional ozone layer that traps heat and ultraviolet radiation nearer to the earth's surface, adding to the levels of smog in cities caused by automobiles and other industrial pollution." - Paula Begoun, Don't Go Shopping for Hair-Care Products Without Me (Get the book.)

"The treatments range from natural raw food diets to use of special machines to kill the cancer cells, from special herbs and teas to ozone therapy. Many of these proved to be many times more effective with better remission (the period during which the symptoms of a disease abate or subside). And yet, as we read this article, we see that the Medical Association banned many of the possibly successful treatments. Today a person can be fined by even using the word "cure" in their therapies in regards to cancer. Makes a person wonder, doesn't it?" - Kenneth W Thomas, Ron Gilbert, Gerd Schaller, Side Effects: The Hidden Agenda of the Pharmaceutical Drug Cartel (Get the book.)

"The tree apparently only grows where there is high ozone content in the air, with high concentrations of vital negative oxygen ions. It is virtually free of contaminants caused by pollutants such as pesticides or exhaust fumes. The tree has vibrant, trumpet-shaped flowers—pink, purple, or yellow, depending on the species. The Lapacho tree with the purple flowers has the most potency. The unusual thing about the flowers is that they are carnivorous and eat insects, protecting the tree against pests, parasites, viral infections, and fungal growth. The power of the tree lies in the inner bark." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.)

"Air pollution contains ozone, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and several hydrocarbon molecules, all of which generate a significant amount of free radicals. When you are exposed to these toxins day in and day out, they have a major effect on your health. Air pollution has been implicated in the causes of asthma, chronic bronchitis, heart attacks, and even cancer. Understanding oxidative stress as the underlying cause of all of these diseases allows us to develop a strategy of protecting ourselves from the damaging effects of air pollution." - Ray D.

"The thick mucous lining contains many antioxidants that then neutralize the inhaled pollutants like ozone, nitrogen dioxide, and fuel emissions. They provide a layer of protection that is so effective that most of the time these pollutants don't even come in contact with the underlying epithelial cells. With ELFs as the first line of defense, the mucous, cilia, and immune response form a team that is extraordinarily effective in preventing infections in the respiratory tract." - Ray D.

"Find out which physicians in your community employ ozone or intravenous hydrogen peroxide therapy in their practice of medicine. Natural antiviral medicines, the third way to reduce viral load, can slow down replication and reduce the number of viruses in the body, making it easier for your immune system to do its job more effectively. Now would be a good time to reread chapter 10, in which I discuss herbal antiviral medicines. 3. Manage fever. Fever is a natural response to infection and is associated with inflammation.

"Environmental sources of free radicals include exposure to ionizing radiation (from industry, sun exposure, cosmic rays, and medical X-rays), ozone and nitrous oxide (primarily from automobile exhaust), heavy metals (such as mercury, cadmium, and lead), cigarette smoke (both active and passive), alcohol, unsaturated fat, and other chemicals and compounds from food, water, and air. The body produces several antioxidant enzymes, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, and glutathione peroxidase, that neutralize many types of free radicals." - Alan R.

"The bromines have increased incidences of cancer and birth defects and have caused serious environmental degradation—again, from aquifer to ozone. In hundreds of local disasters, farmers, citizens, and chemical workers have suffered high rates of injury, sterility, and death from EDB, methyl bromide, PCBs, and DBCP. Many communities in addition have suffered groundwater pollution, yet the manufacturers have contended in all their ads and promotions that bromines wouldn't accumulate in the water table." - Will Allen, The War on Bugs (Get the book.)

"A precursor of MSM is formed initially by ocean plankton and released into the atmosphere, where it interacts with ozone and sunlight and returns to earth as MSM in rainfall. MSM can be taken up by plants and incorporated into their structure, but no measurement of the MSM content of foods has been done. Supplements containing MSM are available. MSM has been used in connection with the following conditions (refer to the individual health concern for complete information): Rating Health Concerns irtrto Osteoarthritis (page 328) Who is likely to be deficient?" - Alan R.
