Oxygen

Did you know that oxygen is the most fundamental nutrient? 

Think about it, you can go 40 days or so without food. You can go maybe 3 to 4 days without water. But you can’t go 3 to 4 minutes without oxygen. There are many ways to use oxygen to enhance health and vitality, including the most obvious – aerobic exercise.

Exercise increases oxygen utilization which ultimately produces more energy in the body. People suffering from various types of COPD including asthma and emphysema can benefit from using cannulated pure oxygen. Sometimes 45 to 60 minutes of pure oxygen therapy can be as restorative as a 4 hour nap. Oxygen bars or stations are increasingly common in US coastal cities.

There’s also a very exciting wave of oxygen therapy that is relatively new in the U.S. This is the medial use of ozone – a super-charged oxygen molecule, which ramps up the potential for energy production, is effective as an antimicrobial and poses no threat of resistance.

Most disease-causing organisms are anaerobic, meaning they don’t like oxygen. So blasting them with oxygen can simply get rid of them.
