Ostomy Memories Says Yes, Butt

This topic is about a humorous take on the recent buzz around rectal ozone therapy, especially from the perspective of someone living with a permanent ostomy and a sewn-shut rectum, often referred to as a "Barbie Butt." The therapy, promoted by actress Gwyneth Paltrow, involves introducing medical-grade ozone into the colon through the rectum, with claims of various health benefits. Here's a closer look at the discussion:

- The claims about rectal ozone therapy, such as boosting oxygen efficiency and detoxifying the body, lack scientific backing. The FDA has pointed out that there aren't enough human studies to prove its effectiveness or safety.
- Inhaling ozone can cause permanent lung damage, highlighting potential risks associated with the therapy.
- There are no claims that this treatment can cure colon diseases, so those with removed or non-functional rectums aren't missing out on a miracle cure.

Advice and insights from the discussion include:

1. Be cautious about following wellness trends endorsed by celebrities. Recommendations from figures like Gwyneth Paltrow are often seen as unscientific and could be harmful.
2. It's wise to remain skeptical until large-scale, peer-reviewed studies confirm the safety and effectiveness of rectal ozone therapy.
3. The conversation ends on a cheerful note, suggesting that those with ostomies can find humor in not being able to participate in such fads, rather than feeling left out.
