The human body can go weeks without food, days without water, and only minutes without oxygen. Three minutes of oxygen deprivation to the brain is considered enough to create permanent brain damage.
Hypoxia is the condition of insufficient oxygen in the body. Often times when we see a person sigh, it’s a sign of insufficient oxygen, resulting in the body’s attempt to remedy the condition by increased inflation of the lungs. Intentional deep breathing is something many of us can benefit from.
Interestingly enough, sometimes the only time some people take a deep breath is when they inhale off of a cigarette. Is the need for a cigarette a need for nicotine or a need for increased oxygen on inhalation? Just a thought.
Most of the time when I’m checking blood oxygen in the office I see numbers from 98 to 99% unless the person has some kind of respiratory issues like COPD, asthma, or emphysema. For these people, I can often assist in their oxygen levels with specific nutritional support which I will talk about later.
In response to what’s been proposed concerning the wearing of a mask, and it’s impact on cellular oxygen and metabolism, I conducted an experiment on myself. I measured my blood oxygen level at 99% then put on a surgical mask for five minutes and then re-tested. Being seated at my computer, I was surprised to see my oxygen level hadn’t dropped. In the past, I tried this same experiment, but was active and saw a significant drop of up to 5%.
Since my respirations didn’t increase while sitting calmly, the amount of carbon dioxide being re-breathed didn’t significantly increase, failing to result in added hypoxia. An increased degree of exertion while wearing face covering does impact your oxygen levels. As your respirations increase, carbon dioxide levels increase due to aggressively re-breathing.
Oxygen is critical to metabolism, but is also instrumental in your body’s defense mechanisms. Increasing oxygen to aid your immune response is something well known. Long ago, Dr Turska developed a machine which made medical ozone. This was used in many ways on patients. I saw him inject this ozone into tumors and witnessed them literally melt away as the immune system was able to increase tumor necrosis factor.
Hyperbaric chambers increase oxygen levels far above normal. When actively scuba diving, I would go diving in Puget Sound and stay down a couple atmospheres to increase cellular oxygen. This is the same as using a hyperbaric chamber. If I had a cold before diving, it was gone afterwards.
If a cold is indeed viral, and increased oxygen saturation can impact it this dynamically, then why not improve oxygen availability during any other viral attack? One of the easiest ways to increase oxygen to your system is to intentionally do some deep breathing on a regular basis. Also consider increasing the number of living plants in your house and work space. They use your carbon dioxide and in turn give off oxygen. Living plants in your house is much more than just decoration.
Naturally occurring vitamin C has a component known as J factor. This increases the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood. Any time you’re fighting colds and infections, getting more oxygen helps oxidize toxins to be carried off in the carbon dioxide.
Much like vitamin C, real vitamin E has a property known as E2. This is a phospholipid which enhances oxygen utilization by the body. Neither of these factors are present in Commercial vitamin supplements since they focus only on those factors the FDA has stated to be vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and vitamin E (d-L alpha tocopherol). Unfortunately neither of these FDA defined elements make enough of an impact on oxygen utilization as to be of any real benefit.
Fresh live foods, known to be rich in these vitamins are your best sources. Fruits, vegetables and cold pressed oils are healthy sources. In my office, I rely on whole food sources which have been provided for the last 91 years by a reputable company, Standard Process. These are available though alternative health care physicians, trained in understanding their function and importance.
