EBOO
Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation
EBOO has long been known as an intelligent ozone therapy that removes blood from the body and runs it through a filter, in a closed-circuit system. Via the filtering mechanism, a mixture of oxygen and ozone is pumped in a cross-current fashion. Then the treated blood is returned to the body.
Extracorporeal means blood is “outside the body”, however, this is a closed system that allows for a larger volume of blood (approx. 2 Liters, roughly 1/2 - 2/3 of the body’s total blood volume) to be treated at once vs some of the other types of ozone IV therapy. This treatment visually resembles the hemodialysis process as well as using a true dialysis filter. However, the filter device is used in a very different way for EBOO vs hemodialysis.
Instead, the filter is used as a mechanism for diffusing ozone and oxygen to a large surface area of blood. This, done at low concentrations, is giving great results to patients getting EBOO, even when they have possibly had lots of other ozone IV therapies prior.
What’s in the Collection Cup?
There are many public claims that the “filter” is actually removing particles from the blood such as heavy metals, microplastics, parasites, and more. While there is no formal studies to prove this, there is a “collection cup” as part of the procedure that does collect cellular bi-product. The contents and color of the collection cup vary widely between patients and individual treatments, even on the same patient. This leaves room for speculation as to what may be removed from a patient in a particular EBOO session. However, nothing conclusive or consistent has been proven. More tests are underway but due to the nature of laboratory testing, it is difficult to test for something in abstract fluid vs blood, urine, or saliva. We look forward to future data on the subject. For now, we are focused on how you, as the patient, respond to treatment and what your laboratory work may show over time.
Our EBOO treatments add yet another advantage; it offers UBI (Ultraviolet Blood Irraditation) therapy with it. UBI combines both ozone and UV therapy to increase the biological activity of the blood cells and increase immune-boosting effects. Both ozone and UV are inhospitable environments for pathogens such as bacteria, fungus, viruses, and cancer, making this method a two-prong approach in treating almost any chronic condition.
Who can Benefit from EBOO?
You are never too sick, too well, too young, or too old to benefit from EBOO.
EBOO is an excellent treatment for a wide range of patients - from people interested in prevention to those fighting a chronic condition. Some common conditions we recommend this treatment for include:
Allergies
Autoimmune Diseases
Bacterial Infections
Viral Infections
Cancer
Chronic Fatigue
Circulatory Issues
Cardiovascular Problems
Inflammation
Joint Pain
Lyme Disease
COVID Recovery
What to Expect During an EBOO Treatment
This procedure should take approximately one hour to complete. It is required to have dual vein access, so you will have one vein accessed to remove the blood and another to reinfuse the blood after it is treated – again, this is a closed-loop system so all of this is happening simultaneously. Unfortunately, if you do not have healthy veinous access, this treatment may not be an option for you.
Prior to the treatment, it is crucial that you eat a healthy meal with protein and nutritious fats as ozone and UBI are known to affect blood sugar. Also, you will feel eminently better if you are well hydrated before your treatment – this also allows your veins to be more accessible, helping to ensure a successful treatment.
Post EBOO therapy, you are not restricted in your normal activity. There are a variety of acute responses noted. Some feel an immediate sense of well-being, mental clarity, less pain, more energy, and an improvement in symptoms, while others may feel lethargic, achy, fatigued, or just relaxed. There is also a third group of patients who feel nothing in direct response to the EBOO therapy initially or with only one treatment. All of these are “normal” and you may feel all of these responses at different times throughout your treatment plan or as you receive multiple treatments. The goal with ozone and UBI therapy is always the collective benefit; over time the modalities support regular and necessary cellular functions that then rebuild systems, tissues, and organs for an overall anti-aging or health approach.
