Autoimmune diseases, characterized by the immune system attacking the body’s own tissues, present significant challenges in treatment and management. Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation (EBOO) therapy offers a promising adjunctive approach to managing autoimmune conditions. Functioning similarly to a dialysis machine, EBOO filters the blood to remove toxins and pathogens that may trigger autoimmune responses. [...]
Detoxification plays a crucial role in maintaining optimal health in today’s toxin-laden environment. Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation (EBOO) therapy offers a sophisticated approach to detoxifying the bloodstream and enhancing overall well-being. Operating similarly to a blood filtration system, EBOO effectively removes toxins, pesticides, and chemicals that accumulate in the body, supporting the body’s natural [...]
Chronic viral infections, such as those caused by herpes viruses or hepatitis B and C, present persistent challenges due to their ability to evade the immune system and establish long-term infections. Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation (EBOO) therapy represents a promising adjunctive treatment option for managing these conditions. Operating similarly to a dialysis machine, EBOO [...]
Mold toxicity, resulting from exposure to mycotoxins found in damp environments, presents significant health risks, ranging from respiratory issues to neurological symptoms. Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation (EBOO) therapy offers a promising avenue for detoxifying the bloodstream and mitigating the effects of mold toxicity. Similar to dialysis, EBOO filters the blood, effectively removing toxins, pesticides, [...]
Lyme disease, caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi transmitted through tick bites, poses significant challenges due to its complex symptoms and potential for chronicity if untreated. Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation (EBOO) therapy represents an innovative approach in addressing the underlying infections associated with Lyme disease. Operating akin to a dialysis machine, EBOO filters the [...]
1. Introduction to Ulcerative Colitis Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that primarily affects the colon and rectum. Traditional treatments often focus on symptom relief, but functional medicine takes a different approach by addressing the root causes of inflammation. This patient-centered method aims to achieve long-term remission and improve overall quality [...]
1. Understanding Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system, leading to a range of neurological symptoms. Conventional treatments often focus on managing symptoms, but functional medicine seeks to identify and address the root causes to provide a more comprehensive treatment plan. 2. Investigating Root Causes [...]
Tick-borne infections, particularly Lyme disease and its co-infections, pose a significant health challenge for individuals worldwide. Characterized by complex symptoms and often elusive diagnoses, these infections can wreak havoc on the body’s immune system and overall well-being. Amidst the conventional treatments available, there’s a growing interest in exploring complementary therapies such as ozone therapy within [...]
