El ozono en la Salud

Abstract

[EN]The present review enhances the major importance of the ozone, both by protecting the life in the Earth, and also by its medicinal interest, due to the beneficial effect in the treatment of several diseases. The ozone protects the human health from the environment contamination and also helps to get over of several human diseases. The ozone layer (stratospheric ozone) is as a thin shield, surrounding the Earth and protecting it against the dangerous sun rays. The ozone is the only substance in the atmosphere being able to absorb the dangerous ultraviolet radiation (UV-B) from the sun. [ES]La presente revisión alude al importante papel del ozono estratosférico en la protección del entorno externo e interno del ser humano. Se analiza el efecto protector del ozono sobre el entorno medioambiental del hombre, protegiendo la vida de los seres vivos, y también, se analiza su protagonismo en la salud humana, como agente terapéutico capaz de recuperar dolencias. El ozono protege ambientalmente al hombre y le ayuda a combatir la enfermedad. El ozono es una forma alotrópica del oxígeno, que participa en el equilibrio ecológico de la Tierra. Entre los 19 y los 23 Km sobre la superficie terrestre, en la estratosfera, un delgado escudo de gas (capa de ozono), rodea la Tierra y la protege de todas las dañinas radiaciones ultravioleta del sol (UV-B). La disminución del escudo de ozono sobre la superficie terrestre, observada en las mediciones de los parámetros ambientales, se traduce en un aumento de los niveles de radiación ultravioleta-B. Esta radiación daña a los seres humanos, animales y plantas. Actualmente, se está constatando un aumento del cáncer de piel, el denominado melanoma, y cambios en la composición de los constituyentes de las plantas, disminución de las cosechas y perjuicios en la masa forestal.
