Description
Book SynopsisScientists now agree that most disease states are caused by oxygen starvation at a cellular level. Polluted air, devitalized foods, and poor breathing habits can all lead to chronic oxygen deficiency, a bodily environment in which toxins thrive as the overall immune response is weakened. Through oxidative therapies--the medical use of ozone (O3) or hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)--we can assist the body in generating the oxygen needed to oxidate viruses and bacteria as well as weak and sick tissue cells, so stronger and healthier cells can take their place. The author also explores the expanding use of oxidative therapies in veterinary medicine and dentistry, including their success in treating cavities and preventing infection. Providing a detailed resource section, he explains how to combine oxidative therapies with holistic methods, such as fasting, detox therapies, herbal medicine, and nutritional healing, for a stronger start on the path to optimum health.
Trade Review“The simplest remedies are often the most effective. How could air not be one of them? Thanks to Nathaniel Altman’s excellent book, you can learn about the full range of oxygen’s healing therapies--from deep breathing to ozone therapy--and their effectiveness in bringing you back to health.” * Christopher Vasey, N.D., author of The Acid-Alkaline Diet for Optimum Health *
“Altman’s book offers a responsible, balanced, and broad view of how we should live and care about our health and the valuable uses of oxidative therapies in treating health concerns.” * Velio BocciI, M.D., author of Oxygen-Ozone Therapy *
