American College of Cardiology Jan 22 2025 Ozone (O3) exposure may reduce the availability of oxygen in the body, resulting in arterial stiffening due to the body's natural response to create more red blood cells and hemoglobin, according to a study published today in JACC , the flagship journal of the American College of Cardiology. Researchers found that even brief exposure to elevated ozone levels reduced blood oxygen saturation , triggered hypoxia-related biomarkers, and increased arterial
