Rectal Ozone therapy and the most bizarre treatments trialed by Gwyneth Paltrow

What sounds utterly ludicrous is actually not unheard of in the medical community. Ozone has a long history of use and there has been research conducted into its ability to treat various ailments, from diabetes to COVID-19.
Having said that, due to the unstable nature of the gas, any administration is risky.  It is also not accepted by health authorities as a medical treatment and is  commonly agreed to be toxic. Also, delivery method is everything and having an unstable gas shot up your nethers is, um, niche, to say the least.
Also, before you start thinking ozone is just air plucked from our polluted atmosphere - think again. Ozone is a gas of three bound oxygen atoms, known as O3. This is why you might also here ozone therapy referred to as O3 therapy. 
We can't imagine why Gwyneth gave this controversial treatment a whirl, but it is largely used as an antibacterial agent. Some claim it can 'purify' and detox your system and assist with immune defense but there's limited or no scientific evidence to support many of these claims.
