From MEpedia, a crowd-sourced encyclopedia of ME and CFS science and history

Ozone therapy or oxygen-ozone autohemotherapy or O2-O3-AHT is an oxidizing therapy which has been investigated as a potential treatment for ME/CFS and a number of other illnesses.[1] Ozone or O3 is a unstable gas that is comprised of three oxygen atoms.[2]
