Effect of Ozone Therapy Added to the Diet in the Treatment of Obesity
Öz
ABSTRACT
Aim: This study aimed to investigate the effects of the recommended weight loss diet and ozone therapy in the treatment of obesity on biochemical parameters related to weight loss and lipid and carbohydrate metabolism.
Materials and Methods: With the approval of the ethics committee, it was carried out with 40 obese patients who applied to a Training and Research Hospital in Istanbul with weight problems. Diet therapy was applied for one month to the patients divided into two groups. One group, unlike the other, was given an ozone capsule to be consumed in the morning on an empty stomach. The effectiveness of the treatment was examined taking biochemical values and anthropometric measurements of the patients at the baseline and after one month.
Results: There was a significant decrease in weight, body mass index, waist circumference, VLDL cholesterol and triglyceride values in the Diet and Diet+Ozone group at the baseline and at the end of one month (p<0.01 for each). A significant decrease was observed in the initial LDL cholesterol values only in the diet group at the end of the first month (p<0.01).
Conclusion: As a result, it was found that there was a significant decrease in body weight, BMI, fat percentage, waist circumference, hip circumference, total cholesterol and LDL measurements in the Diet and Diet+Ozone group, while the change was slightly higher in the ozone therapy group.
