ozone exposure restores red blood cell antioxidant enzyme activity in inflammatory conditions
Prophylactic ozone administration significantly restored erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity in arthritic rats (244 ± 16.3 nmoles NADPH/min/gHb) compared to untreated arthritic rats (175.7 ± 27.3), approaching normal values (274.4 ± 17.4).
What this means for you
Glutathione peroxidase is one of your body's frontline defenses against oxidative stress — the cellular wear-and-tear linked to inflammation, fatigue, and accelerated aging. When this enzyme activity drops during inflammatory states, recovery slows and tissue damage accumulates. Research suggests ozone exposure may help restore that antioxidant activity closer to normal levels, supporting your body's natural resilience.
