Dear Duncan In your zeal to defend ozone (which I will do too, but not as blindly), you seem to have missed the point I was trying to make, namely that:
This detoxification of ozone is endogenous anti-oxidative enzyme dependent. It is folly to expect ill individuals to manage this feat, since it is the failure to adequately produce these enzymes, rather than insufficient oxygen (which is secondary), which enzyme insufficiency leads to immunodefficiency in the first place. Bugspray will kill bugs, but can also harm non-target organisms. We must try to think a little further than mere first effects. Please read the paper: Papadopulos-Eleopulos E, Med Hypothesis, 25: 151, 1988, available as a pdf file on my website at: http://www.gaiaresearch.co.za/natstrat.html The introduction to my article, prior to the pdf file launch (there are six worth reading) is, I believe, a good introduction to the causes of AIDS, including "oxidative stress", hence my cautioning against introducing ozone into a system which has failed to safely and hence effectively employ its components, and will fail to detoxify the ozone. This is not to say that ozone cannot be safely employed, but doing so is challenging, if not unnecessary, as the rest of my article sets out to explain. Regards Stuart
