Can anyone share their experience with Ozone Treatment for Hep C?  I know of a treatment center just over the boarder of California, but desperately need to hear any positive and negative feedback about the treatment before making a decision.  Please contact me as soon as possible.

You asked for negative opinions. Here are some articles and other material that suggest that ozone therapy has been used for lots of illnesses ... by quacks taking advantage of people with frightening disease conditions. I suspect there will be others by to defend ozone therapy. The FDA has not found it to be of any worth but there are many who find the FDA less then able and, indded, they are not great at stopping fraud, especially in the internet age. Never the less ... the FDA and it's attempts at mitigating health fraud might be why you would need to go across the border to find a clinic offering such therapy.

Don't just take some website's testimonial about anything, do your resarch thoroughly if you are planning any alternate treatment. You should also remember to include your own state of being there may be a supplement or something that ordinarily may offer a benefit but you may have a pre existing condition that the supplement may aggravate. As far as Ozone...  it rhymes with Twilight Zone

The clinic over the border is run by William Hitt.  He claims that he is a doctor who has won the Nobel Peace Prize and a multitude of other awards and honors.  I am a lawyer who represented various of his victims and personally investigated him.  First, he is not a doctor.  He has never even graduated from an accredited college.  He was sued by the State of Texas in 1987 for practicing medicine without a license and for prescribing unsafe treatments.  He admitted then that he was not a doctor and did not have a degree.  I also called the various colleges where he claimed to have obtained degrees and they have no record of him.  I also contacted the organization with which he claimed to have gotten the Nobel Prize and they said that he has never been a member.  Since it is an organization of physicians, that would make sense.  He also claims to have won the Eli Lilly award for discovering a type of mycoplasm.  However, I spoke with Eli Lilly and there is no Eli Lilly award.  In fact, Hitt has never even received a grant.  After promising not to practice medicine any more, he left the U.S., went to Mexico, and, gee, started practicing medicine.  I represented clients who went to him because he claimed he could cure Hep C.  His "treatment" is urine injections (ick), hyper doses of vitamins and amino acids (I was very active in litigation involving amino acids that killed several people and made thousands ill), and ozone therapy.  My clients did not get better, although Hitt said they were cured.  When they returned, their viral loads were worse than when they started treatment.  I discovered that Hitt had falsified the lab results to "prove" that he had cured them.  Results faxed directly from the lab demonstrated that Hitt's treatment had done nothing good.  One of my clients had a heart attack while receiving treatment, but Hitt did not diagnose it and just told my client that he was having a minor adverse reaction and there was nothing to worry about!!  Hitt now is touting Neurotransmitter treatment of some kind, but it is the same old thing - urine, vitamins, amino acids.  He claims that this treatment can cure Hep C, AIDS, MS, alcoholism and substance abuse, and obesity, among other things.  He takes mucus from one's nose and based on that "designs" a vitamin and amino acid mix that is supposedly custom blend.  However, since he has no medical or scientific training, even if mucus could tell you anything (like one's viral load), he would not be the one to see it.  Finally, if you have money, you will not be cured, but will be a difficult case that requires multiple treatments.  To be fair, there are many people who claim magnificent results.  It is my opinion that this is mind over matter, but even if Hitt has a great treatment, wouldn't you rather have a real doctor (and someone who doesn't lie about it) treat you in case there is a bad reaction or you do have a heart attack?  Even though Hitt cannot practice medicine in the U.S., he is now working with various individuals, none of whom are doctors, to run various substance abuse centers around the country.  You go in, give a mucus sample, which is supposedly sent to Hitt, and he then sends back the customized vitamin/amino acid recipe, and nurses or physician-assistants provide the IV of goop.  Again, I'd rather have a real doctor.  Vitamins can kill you in large doses and amino acids are not regulated.  So I would stay away from that clinic over the border.  Oh, there was a program in 2001 on NPR about the William Hitt Clinic that showed that it had unlabeled bottles of "medicine," vats of mucus, and other problems and the place was closed down.  I know for a fact that Hitt bribes the police down there and, no surprise, it was re-opened a while later.  So, in short, this guy lies about his qualifications and experience, he falsifies laboratory results, he treats and supposedly cures everything, he was closed down for sanitary problems, and he promised not to practice medicine under penalty of perjury, but does it anyway.  Oh, the company with which he worked regarding ozone therapy, went out of business and has SEC problems for filing false claims and Hitt falsified test results about the effectiveness of the therapy.

  Stay away from the William Hitt Center.  My son was being treated with the amino acid treatment, which is supposed to be a 10 day treatment.  They decided to do his treatment in only 7 days, very negligent treatment, and he therefore died.  William Hitt is a fake, no doctor, and has never won the awards he claims.  They have shown little concern about my sons death, we can't get any medical records from them, and they destroyed all of his belongings.  Very obviously trying to cover something up.  Please do not go to the clinic.

Wow. I was really suprised by this. I went to the William Hitt clinic in 2006. I had been nearly bed-ridden with Chronic Fatigue and constant bronchitus. I was on lots of medications, and wasn't getting any better. I spent 10 days at the Tijuana clinic recieving treatment. It wasn't easy, and I had to go back once a month for about a year, but I now have my life back. I am able to hold down a full-time job, and I am no longer taking ANY medication. My asthma is completely gone, and my alergies are almost non-existant. It wan't mind over matter. Dr. Hitt and the other doctors at the Hitt Center really helped me and changed my life. I talked to numerous patients who were also recieving treatments who said the same things. I watched a little girl with Lukemia go from skin and bones to a normal looking child. I talked to a guy with Hep C who came back regularly for "tune-ups", but was living a normal life. I'm sorry to hear there were people who were harmed. That wasn't my experience, and I am very grateful to Dr. Hitt and the clinic for giving me the tools to get my life back.

ProHitt, the reason you're quite dismayed by the claims made by the previous posters is because they are likely pseudo-agents on the FDA payroll.  In particular J. Prins, who makes one patently false statement and misrepresentation after another. He represented Americans in the Mexican civil court? Really? Such propaganda.

Ozone works. I just returned from the Hitt Center after my cousin was completely cured of Hep C using autohemotherapy. I met the same little girl you write of (she looks so healthy and happy and not a trace of Leukemia) and my experience was the same. I got my life back thanks to Dr. Hitt.  The truth is that big pharma owns the FDA and if any treatment which is as effective both in terms of cost and healing properties as ozone were to get in the hands of everyday Americans, the FDA would cease to exist and the drug companies would be bankrupt.  There is no money in the cure.

The method employed by the Hitt Center, autohemotherapy, which essentially infuses an individuals own blood with ozone is completely safe and is not harmful whatsoever.  Do some basic research to uncover this fact.

As for Gizmo, this post screams of blatant fabrication, however, if indeed this individual's son did pass away, it was probably because he overdosed on drugs after 7 days of being detoxed, which is exactly what NTR is so effective at doing.  NTR is amino acids, building blocks of protein, and is not harmful to the human body, all muscle cells are comprised of amino acids, so again, another horrible lie or sadly a grieving parent caught in the grips of denial over their sons drug use.  That is of course if this case even existed at all, my guess is this is totally false, as anyone who has met any of the doctors at the Hitt Center knows that all of them care immensely for their patients.

For others who run across this post, please, do your own research, Dr. Hitt is a legitimate medical doctor with a medical degree (and a Ph.D) and taught immunology at Johns Hopkins for 13 years.  What's so shameful and incomprehensible is that individuals such as J. Prins are willing to risk your health by spewing propaganda in an effort to discredit a true alternative treatment, all in the name of the almighty dollar.  Truly pernicious.

 I have been using ozone for years. I've had success with it; although no cure (for my hep c.) However, I am not a professional, just an adherent.
  I have had several friends who refused ozone, and instead chose the usual paths- doing nothing- or doing conventional meds, and they are dead.
 I have survived and thrived (a large percentage of the time) through the use of ozone, and vitamin therapies.
  I think the above critics are paid agents as well.
  Stephen Barrett (quackwatch) is the biggest quack. He's been sued successfully in several states to cease his attacks on "alt" therapies.
  By the way, I have recently started using low dose naltrexone. Its working very well.
 Go to Yahoo and search for cam, hepatitis, children.

Well, I don't normally do this, but I'll post here, even though the initial plea for help came in 2007.  Alas, maybe someone will benefit.

 

I did two weeks of autohemotherapy at the Good Samaritan Medical Center in Juarez, Mexico a couple of years ago and had no problems.  I went there for cancer, but wanted to do the AHT just to see if it would get the hep.  Turns out my viral count went from about 7.5 to 4.5---the lowest it's ever been, but it quickly returned to normal levels---for me---in short order after returning to the states. 

 

As it happens, I had the cancer under control before I arrived at the clinic. I went from about a PSA 7 to a 3.35 in three months doing nothing but cesium chloride. Read my story at: http://cesium.alternative.cancer.cure.googlepages.com

 

Since my PSA continues to rise ever so slowly, I'm looking for another alternative to augment the cesium.

 

I am about to purchase an oxygen concentrator and an ozone generator and declare war once again on hep-c and cancer. I have discovered that you will find no definitive answer one way or the other on the Internet. The only way to really know if ozone kills hep-c or cancer is to fork over the 1500 bucks or so and see what you get. That's the real answer, and that's what I'm gonna do.

 

As for people who condemn ozone, cesium, etc., I've noticed that in almost every case, these are people who support the modern medical approach and are supported by it.  How interesting.  A pair of two-year-old trained circus chimpanzees could figure that one out in about five minutes.

 

And yes, the FDA, the AMA, the insurance companies, the pharmaceutical companies, and everyone living off the medical misfortune of others will condemn and attack anything that threatens their billions and their power.

 

If ozone cleans up hep-c and cancer for me, you’ll see me in the news soon after, because I’m gonna go public in a big way.

 

I will also post any developments on each on my site.
