Ozonated Olive Oil is a powerful natural remedy for a variety of health concerns, especially those related to skin health. I wanted to share an overview of just exactly what this healing oil is, and how it works.
What Is Ozonated Olive Oil?
Ozonated olive oil is made with high quality, organic, extra-virgin, cold-pressed olive oil that is put through a process of “ozone injection”, which is bubbling ozone into the liquid for an extended period of time. Many companies use a cheap corona discharge ozone generator that can lead to contamination. For purity and quality, a cold plasma ozone generator should always be used. When searching for a high-quality source of ozonated olive oil, ask the company if they are using a corona or cold plasma unit. Ozone is a reactive gas and is very hard to stabilize, but by passing it through the oil, contained within an ozone resistant container, the ozone gas begins to interact and stabilize within the oil. As it is continually processed, the ozone slowly begins to turn the liquid form of the oil into an off-white colored paste.
Ozonated Olive Oil Liquid Vs. Ozonated Olive Oil Paste
The difference between the liquid oil and solid paste is the amount of saturated oxygen and ozone. Creating the paste version the process is much more extensive and the amount of oxygen and ozone saturation level is exponentially greater than any liquid oil product available.
As an example, the ratio of O2/O3 in liquid ozonated olive oil formulas can only contain up to a percentage of roughly 10 percent whereas ozonated olive oil paste contains up to 50 percent saturated oxygen/ozone, by volume. Also, the liquid does not have the long time release which ozonated olive oil paste does, which can last up to 12 hours or more when applied to the skin.
The Top Benefits & Uses for Ozonated Olive Oil
Ozonated Olive Oil holds a variety of health benefits but is most commonly used for conditions of the skin and external body, much as you would use a therapeutic salve or cream. As a massage paste, the ozonide acts as an antioxidant, allowing lactic acid and toxins to be released from the pores of the skin. Other benefits include:
- Stimulates growth of skin cells
- Speeds up healing time for skin wounds and ulcers
- Cleans and sterilizes the epidermis
- Reduces swelling and redness
- Calms the nerves and reduces the discomfort of skin conditions
- May increase cellular function and cellular memory
- Acts as a free radical scavenger on harmful toxins
- Acts as a moisturizing facial conditioner (leave on for 20 minutes and promptly remove)
- Aids in healing processes and reduces scarring
- Promotes healthy skin conditions
- Soothes animal wounds as it is completely natural and can be licked
Below are several uses for ozonated olive oil and skin issues that it can help:
- Removing makeup
- Sunburn of the skin
- Insect bites and stings
- Infections of the sebaceous glands (sweat)
- Natural underarm deodorant
- Hemorrhoids — One of the best natural remedies
- Sore muscles (rub as a massage paste)
- Cellulite reduction
- Wrinkles
- Ringworm
- Bed Sores
- Cuts & burns
- Skin Y\yeast

I heard that one could use ozonated oil as a tooth aide to help with tooth infections at the root or gum line. It was suggested to apply it by putting it on dental floss. I tried this and after 3 days or so, I had an unpleasant reaction—mostly stomach and kidney discomfort, and generally felt sick. Do you recommend this type of application for your olive oil? If so, maybe I was using too much? If you have any suggestions for another way to use ozonated oil for dental infections, please let me know. Thank you.
We recommend talking to a ozonated oil health care specialists as we only formulate the oils and provide the data and knowledge we can research or prove.
