Ozonated Oils

Ozonated oil is a type of oil that manufacturers infuse with ozone gas (O3) under controlled conditions. Manufacturers achieve this by bubbling ozone gas through a carrier oil, such as olive oil or sunflower oil, for an extended period. The oil reacts with the ozone gas and forms several beneficial compounds, including ozonides, peroxides, and aldehydes.

People often use this oil topically due to its alleged health benefits.

Some of the benefits reported include:

• It reduces inflammation and swelling in the skin and other tissues due to its anti-inflammatory properties.
• It helps fight off bacterial, fungal, and viral infections thanks to the ozone’s antimicrobial properties.
• It promotes tissue regeneration and improves wound healing because of the compounds found in ozonated oil.

Ozonated oil comes in various forms, such as creams, gels, and oils. It is important to note that although there is some evidence supporting its use for certain health conditions, further research is necessary to fully understand its potential benefits and risks.
