Autism is characterized by inflammation, immune dysregulation caused by oxidative stress, reduced supply of antioxidants, and increased risk of infection. Ozone Therapy improves these issues with its long-term anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory anti-viral, anti-fungal as well as antibacterial qualities. It aids in stimulating internal antioxidants that are made by the body on a continual basis, which reduces the oxidative damage on cell level.
Ozone helps with gastrointestinal tract issues, dysregulated immune systems, as well as the endocrine (hormonal) mechanisms, while improving symptoms of anxiety, sleep, aggression and speech.
For children particularly, ozone can be administered to the ear (in-ear insufflation) as well as in rectally (bag insufflation) or intravenously if the child has large enough veins. Ozone therapy for autism must only be done under medical supervision. This precaution is due to ensuring that detoxification pathways in Autistic children are truly open, where toxins and heavy metals can struggle to leave the body. We also do dietary changes along with herbal antivirals that are microbiome balancing. Certain autistic patients are good candidates for adjunctive sound and light therapies along with other treatments also.
When administered correctly ozone therapy rarely causes serious adverse negative effects
Detoxification with infrared sauna, lemon water, and high fiber foods is vital. Autistic children often improve greatly on a ketogenic diet, which is challenging as most families grapple with the thought of removing grains, sugars, processed foods, and even most fruits from the pantry and refrigerator. Warm water enemas and coffee enemas both aid in detoxification, especially of heavy metal reduction which is an issue in a subset of autistic patients.

What are the methods of ozone therapy?
For children particularly, ozone is administered to the ear (in-ear insufflation) as well as in rectally (Rectal insufflation) or intravenously, if the child has large enough venous access. It is recommended to first consult your ozone practitioner and when recommended ozone therapy should only be done under medical supervision.
What are possible side effects of Ozone Therapy
When administered correctly ozone therapy rarely causes any serious adverse negative effects

Newest findings in molecular and cellular pathways have been achieved in autism research, opening new platforms and strategies for novel, patient-designed treatments [1,2].
Ozone(O3) is a molecule consisting of three atoms of oxygen in a dynamically unstable structure due to the presence of mesomeric states [3]. In air pollution, ozone shows dangerous effects, however nowadays many clinicians consider it as beneficial tool to restore body damages. By a therapeutical approach, ozone is a gas constituting by an ozone and oxygen mixture with a great oxidative power. Oxygen-Ozone therapy is a new, non-invasive technique currently being used for several diseases (i.e. myocardial infarction, neuropathic pain, vasculogenesis) [4], in which a strongly involved of inflammation processes is required. Indeed, ozone mixture shows anti-inflammatory, antalgic, antibacterial and virustatic effects.
Ozone shows long-term anti-inflammatory effects and it has been proposed as an antioxidant enzymeactivator, immune modulator, and cellular metabolic activator [5]. Indeed, several experimental and clinical evidences have shown advantageous effects of oxygen/ozone therapy in several pathologies characterized by a cellular oxidative and inflammatory response, including renal injury, cardiopathy, atherosclerosis and septic shock [6]. Very interesting, ozone is able to decrease pro-inflammatory cytokines and neurotrophic factors production (i.e. Il-1b, Il-2, BDNF) without toxicity or serious side effects [7].
Autism is characterized by a coexistent immune system dysregulation [8]. Alterations in both T cell- and B cell-mediated immunity, as well as an imbalance in CD3+, CD4+, and CD8+ T cells and natural killer (NK) cells, and increased expression of genes that regulate inflammatory mechanisms have been demonstrated [9,10].
On these bases, the regulatory effects mediated by ozone mixture could represent an optimal way to restore immune balance in autism, which cannot otherwise be obtained through pharmaceutical interventions. Its property in decreasing inflammatory mediators could be useful as non-specific immunomodulation therapy for autistic patients.
Currently, there are no pre-clinical or clinical studies on the use of therapeutical ozone in autism treatment. This editorial is a work hypothesis to further stimulate research and possible application in this interesting topic. Exact dose, ozone concentration, as well as administration sites will need of a deep and exhaustive studies and experimental data.
