Activated Oxygen and Why You Need It

By Dr. Jen O’Sullivan

No process in the body can function without oxygen. The human body performs best at 100% oxygen saturation. Humans are deprived of oxygen due to air pollution, shallow breathing, poor nutrition and junk foods, sedentary lifestyle, and even poor posture. 

You can utilized a special form of oxygen called ozone. Ozone is essentially an energized and activated form of oxygen. It helps restore the oxygen balance in and on the body.

Ozone (O3) is formed when one stable bond between two molecules of oxygen combine with a third atom of oxygen. This third atom becomes a free-radical fighting powerhouse. 

This activated oxygen can be used in many ways, but it is most accessible and effective in carrier oils such as jojoba, olive, and hemp oil. Jojoba oil is the preferred oil infused with ozone for facial serums because it is the closest match in pH to our skin, absorbs extremely well, and doesn’t stain clothing. Jojoba oil is also great for regulating and balancing the oiliness of facial skin. It boasts natural fungicidal and antibacterial properties. Jojoba is also naturally hypoallergenic and may help improve the look of your skin by hydrating and protecting the outer layer.

One of the best sources for activated oxygen in a serum and balm form using Jojoba is through o3serum.com 

Check out the reviews for the products and all the info on the O3 Serum website. Using ozone is one of my favorite ways to support the health of my skin!

Lemon Water pH Balance Instructions

by Dr. Jen O’Sullivan

Supplies

  • Fresh Organic Lemons
  • Pure Filtered Spring Water or Distilled Water

Benefits

  • Lemons are considered the only pure anionic (alkaline) food.
  • Lemons help to maintain proper pH balance in the body.
  • Lemons support liver function and the production of enzymes.
  • Lemons help to cleanse the liver and promote liver health.
  • Lemons help to balance carbohydrate levels.
  • Lemons are rich in vitamin C to support immune system health.
  • Lemons help support colon health and a healthy digestion.

Directions

ON THE HOUR:
Add 1 tablespoon (1/2 ounce or 1/2 of one lemon) of freshly squeezed organic lemon juice to 4.5 ounces of distilled or pure filtered spring water that is room temperature (or warmer if you prefer).
This is a 1:9 ratio of lemon juice to water.
NOTE: Do not use lemon concentrate. It is not alkaline.

ON THE HALF HOUR:
Drink 5 ounces of distilled or pure filtered spring water.

Do this for a 10 hour period completing 10 cycles (100 total ounces).

Additional Notes

  • Do not prepare lemon water or squeezed lemon ahead of time. Doing so will reverse the charge from anionic (alkaline) to cationic (acidic). You must drink the lemon water within 30 minutes of squeezing it or it will become acidic and is no longer beneficial for this cleanse.
  • Your body can only absorb 4-5 ounces of water every 30 minutes, so do not drink more.
  • You may perform this daily, weekly, or monthly depending on your needs.
  • You may do as many or as few rounds in a day as you like, up to 10 rounds.
  • You may eat normally, eat lighter, or fast.
