Someone describes how ozone treatment made their asthma disappear for six to seven years after cold water exposure. A skeptic raises safety concerns, and the first speaker explains that ozone irritates lungs only at high doses because lung tissue lacks antioxidant defenses.
I noticed like my symptoms of asthma started going away where I wouldn't just randomly get tight chested or randomly have some sort of trigger. And then I, you know, eventually got to colder and colder water. And so six, seven years now I haven't had any asthma symptoms. I don't know if it's gone forever or what. This is just purely anecdotal, but totally got rid of all my symptoms.
So how do you know whether the ozone that you're smelling is too much or is that just a myth that it's bad for you?
So there, there is one thing with ozone, you can't breathe it. However, that's primarily in large doses. So the reason you can't breathe ozone is because you don't have an antioxidant defense system there because you need to pull in oxygen and metabolize that, utilize that. So ozone being a strong oxidant, when it goes into an environment that doesn't have antioxidant defense, it's going to irritate the lung, lung tissue. But that being said, you can still smell it and that's fine. So you can smell it far before it exceeds any sort of safety standard.
