Ozone enhances the taste of fresh perishable food by oxidizing pesticides and neutralizing ammonia and ethylene gases produced by ripening or decay.

It does not leave any toxic by-products or residues, does not harm normal cells or alter its chemistry, is non-carcinogenic and always reverts back to oxygen.
