Ozone therapy & EBOO

Blood-exposure procedures marketed as detoxification, oxygenation or mitochondrial optimisation without established longevity benefit.

Why it circulates

A dramatic medical-looking procedure, immediate subjective experiences and broad biochemical narratives.

What the evidence supports

Protocol heterogeneity and weak outcome evidence prevent broad conclusions; invasive procedures add route-specific risks.

Practical appraisal

Do not describe blood oxidation or laboratory-marker changes as rejuvenation.
