How Is Ozone Made up?

In nature there is a cycle of oxygen, just like there is a cycle of water. Oxygen is released from plants on land and plankton in the sea during photosynthesis. The oxygen is lighter than air and floats upward in the atmosphere. Ozone production in the upper atmosphere is dependent on the amount of energy coming from the sun. During peaks of solar activity, ozone is created at a greater rate. During lows in the sunspot cycle, the ozone layer is thinner. Ozone is produced constantly in the upper atmosphere as long as the sun is shining, and since ozone is heavier than air, it begins to fall earthward.

Ozone is also created by lightning. This ozone is what gives the air a wonderful fresh smell after rain and is of the highest benefit to anyone fortunate enough to be breathing it. Ozone is also created by waterfalls and crashing surf, which accounts for the energetic feeling and calm experienced near these sites.

The first ozone generators were developed by Werner von Siemens in Germany in 1857, and 1870 saw the first report on ozone being used therapeutically to purify blood by C. Lenders in Germany.

In September 1896, electrical genius Nikola Tesla patented his first ozone generator, and in 1900 he formed the Tesla Ozone Company. Tesla sold ozone machines to doctors for medical use, the same thing we are doing a 100 years later, with a design based on one of his from the 1920s. We have seen one of these 75-year-old generators and it still works perfectly. Tesla produced ozonated olive oil and sold it to naturopaths, and we do too.

During World War I, ozone was used to treat wounds, trench foot, gangrene, and the effects of poison gas.

Dr. Albert Wolff of Berlin also used ozone for colon cancer, cervical cancer, and decubitus ulcers in 1915.

In 1926, Dr. Otto Warburg of the Kaiser Institute in Berlin announced that the cause of cancer is basically, but not exclusively, a lack of oxygen at the cellular level. He received the Nobel Prize for Medicine twice.

In 1929, a book called Ozone and its Therapeutic Action was published in the United States, listing 114 diseases and how to treat them with ozone. Its authors were heads of all the leading American hospitals.

From 1953 onward, a German doctor, Hans Wolff, used ozone in his practice, writing the book Medical Ozone, and training many doctors in ozone therapy.

In 1957, Dr. J. Hansler patented an ozone generator, which has formed the basis of the German expansion of ozone therapy over the last 35 years.

Today, over 7,000 German doctors use ozone therapy daily.
