I have recently come across some amazing literature about Aerobic Oxygen. I also know someone who has been able to leave at home her tank of oxygen that she used to carry around with her after she started taking this. Several companies claim to be the "original" one selling it, but I was wondering what everyone's experience/opinion of this is? If it is a good thing, what is a good mcg per serving to look for? How much to take? And for how long? I have come across some info that says that over-oxidation within the body can cause cells to be damaged resulting in premature aging. Any thoughts?

I looked at a couple of stabilized oxygen websites, and I must say that it looks like quackery to me.
To begin with, unless you are gasping for air, your body is not short of oxygen. Gasping is the natural reflex your body automatically does whenever oxygen is in short supply. So if you're not gasping, you've got all you need - adding more won't help anything.
Secondly, this stuff is swallowed - taken into the digestive system. Any pill, or treated water, or anything that purports to increase oxygen in your blood via your digestive system is probably wrong. The membranes of the stomach and intestines are very poorly suited to absorbing oxygen. Oxygen will mostly just pass out of the gut as burps or gas. (Lungs on the other hand are very efficient at absorbing oxgen - any oxgen-increasing treatment that is aimed at the stomach is aimed at the wrong organ).
Finally, for this or any other product, you should be very suspicious of stuff that relies on mere testimonials rather than legitimate clinical trials. And you should be doubly suspicious of any product that claims to help or cure a long list of ailments. Both of these are the marks of quack cures. A true wonder drug, like say aspirin, might help with perhaps three different problems. Drugs that are claimed to cure ten or twenty different things always turn out to be frauds.

You are a total fool to think that gasping is the only sign of lack of oxygen. Gasping is the last resort the body has at oxygen retrieval. A plethora of pollutants inhabit our breathing air making the concentration 1/10th of what it once was. We need more Oxygen.
