Ozone In Cuba Nathaniel Altman

Nathaniel Altman

Since 1985, Cuban physicians and chemists have carried out the most extensive laboratory and clinical studies of medical ozone in the world, making Cuba the world leader in medical ozone therapy. Despite severely limited resources, Cuban scientists have accumulated an impressive amount of scientific and clinical data about medical ozone, and have reported their findings at both regional and international medical conferences, most recently in Havana in March, 1997.

This research has been carried out under the auspices of the Department of Ozone, a branch of the National Center for Scientific Research in Havana. Physicians are actively using ozone in clinics and hospitals as part of the National Program for Ozone Therapy. Between 1985 and 1994, over 25,000 Cuban patients were treated in medical institutions throughout the country, as well as many foreigners. During 1994, the Department of Ozone relocated to a spacious new facility in south Havana.

Cuban physicians currently use the following protocols:

1) Major autohemotherapy: angina, arthritis, cancer, heart disease, herpes, HIV

2) Rectal insufflation : for persons whose veins are too hard to find

3) Limb bagging : burns, fungus, gangrene, skin ulcers, wounds

4) Direct injection : circulatory problems, into joints for arthritis

5) Ozonated sunflower oil : acne, athlete's foot, bee stings, bed sores, fistulae, fungus, gingivitis, hemorrhoids, herpes, vaginitis, dermatitis, ulcers, gastritis, giardia

Published studies carried out in Cuba include the following:

Arthrosis (1990) : 89% of 208 patients reported complete disappearance of pain

Atherosclerosis (1988) : 73% of 30 patients exhibited marked improvement

Athlete's foot : 96% of 100 patients symptom-free in 10 days with ozonated olive oil

Burns : 25 patients received autohemotherapy. No infections or inflammation resulted.

Diabetes : 93% of 47 diabetics avoided surgery for ischemic legs

Duodenal ulcer : 80% of 20 patients were healed with ozonated water

Eye diseases : 85% of 40 patients with optic atrophy experienced marked improvement

Giardia : 92% of 50 patients treated with ozonated water were cured

Herpes zoster : 15 adults treated for one year were cured of symptoms

Hypercholesterolemia (1987) : In 22 patients, LDL cholesterol levels fell by 19.8%

Ischemic cerebro-vascular disease (1988): 88% of 120 patients had significant improvement

Osteoarthritis : 93% of 60 patients became symptom free after 10 weeks

Retinitis pigmentosa (1985): 89% of 200 patients improved for 2 years after treatment

Rheumatoid arthritis (1988):17 patients improved with intramuscular ozone injections

Senile dementia : 85% of 30 patients markedly improved with rectal insufflation

Sickle cell anemia (1989) : 30 patients had great improvement in their condition

Varicose ulcers : 120 patients were cured in 15 - 30 days
