After studying numerous compounds, ozonides of terpenes hydrocarbons were studied.
Terpenes are widespread in nature, mainly in plants as constituents of essential oils.
If the nutritional protoplasm is eliminated, the cancer cell starves to death. Thereby creating a highly reactive compound, the O3 as such will not be found in the red blood cell since it is not able to pass the cellular membrane. The red blood cell will react to the peroxide immediately for being a cytotoxin, and will activate its detoxification mechanism through the glutathione system. The main task of the pentose phosphate pathway is to protect the hemoglobin against oxidation into methemoglobin and hence to keep up the function enabling the transmission of Oxygen. In turn, this means that the entire erythrocyte metabolism is stepped up.
