Thus its ability to destroy pathogenic unstable molecules in low concentrations and harming healthy cells in higher concentrations. Antioxidant use should be prescribed in conjunction with ozone exposure if persons attempt these blood saturation methods. The production of ozone produces nitrous oxide by products. These are in varying concentration according to the type of method used to produce the ozone. Electronically produced thermal type 'hot spark ozone' produces high concentrations of nitrogen dioxide, nitric acid and other nitrogen oxides which are very toxic.
Any dampness increases toxic production.
The low voltage 'Cold plasma' type of ozone production creates far less nitrogen oxides, the concentration being less than one half of one percent and considered non harmful. Other forms of production produce even less or no nitrogen oxides. If we were to look at ozone as a disinfectant or cleansing substance similar in some ways to chlorine we could perhaps more easily understand its beneficial and harmful effects at different concentrations.
