you know there’s something about breathing and getting oxygen that’s very good for your survival and when you don’t have enough oxygen it can really put a person into a panic attack or an anxiety attack so today we’re going to talk about uh difficulty breathing or air hunger or another term for that is dpia and traditionally people know about this symptom coming from asthma or some type of pneumonia or lung infection or COPD or maybe anemia or even a heart condition but what if you don’t have any of those problems right you rule those out and you still have this problem with your breathing which can really affect your ability to sleep there’s some great uh information on this topic by two people Craig Stewart and Steve August and I’m going to put a link down below for their video because they have some really great data on this topic you could probably call this condition pseudo dpia which is kind of the opposite when you rest it gets worse but when you exercise it gets better so let’s cover the four main reasons for this condition the first reason which actually was uh Craig Stewart’s reason he had something called silent reflux where there is some acid regurgitating up through his esophagus but the silent part means that you don’t have the heartburn but you might have some of the other symptoms and you might not even feel them as well because they’re silent but they’re there so what does acid reflux or silent reflex have to do with your breathing well apparently there’s a lot of um sensory nerves in your esophagus that go right to your brain and that will give your brain certain information that it’s not getting enough oxygen which will cause you to feel like you have air hunger it will cause you to breathe more and gasp or air it’ll cause you to yawn more and when you breathe more sometimes it creates almost not like a hyperventilation but you get too much oxygen and not enough CO2 two okay now you would think that would allow you to breathe better but what’s interesting about the relationship between oxygen and CO2 is that you need a certain level of CO2 to allow oxygen to go into your red blood cells and so if you have just straight oxygen without enough CO2 you won’t be able to get enough oxygen into the cells so you need this balance so this extra breathing actually doesn’t help oxygen going into the cells and so uh Craig’s solution was to take a certain medication to heal the esophagus right and try to get rid of some of this silent reflex and that tend to help him my solution is going to be a little different because it’s going to involve not taking a medication but just finding some chlorophyll you can also use uh some wheat grass juice powder and you can put in some water and drink that a few times during the day on an empty stomach to have that chlorophyll uh line the esophagus and slowly heal those tissues over a period of time that’s also a good remedy if you have an ulcer or gastritis because you need to heal that uh before you really can correct the underlying cause which by the way ironically is not enough acid a weak acid in your stomach will cause the valve on the top of your stomach to open up too much it won’t close and what’ll happen is acid will regurgitate you’ll get gird and it kind of comes up to the esophagus so most people you know logically just take an an acid when in fact um if you took an acid like Bane hydrochloride or maybe even appleid of vinegar you may find that those symptoms go away because now that valve can close in other words a lot of the heartburn uh especially indigestion and acid reflux in gird comes from a lack of acid not an excessive amount of acid now you’re feeling the acid coming up through your esophagus but the actual stomach part doesn’t have enough acid I mean if you just think about this logically this concept of acid reflux or heartburn being too much acid or too acidic well what is the normal pH of the acid in your stomach what should it be normally well it’s at the bottom of the pH it’s super acid like between one and three that’s like battery acid and so you think your acid reflux or your heartburn is coming because you have like more acidity or too much acid well normally you should have that acid to break down the protein so it doesn’t really make sense that it’s too much acid when you really know and understand the real pH of your stomach a normal pH and also the treatment and acids dilute the acid making it weaker and then think about all the consequences of that not being able to digest protein so anyway if you have this difficulty breathing this air hunger really assess do you have this silent reflex do you have a digestive issue and so if you do have this irritation your sophus obviously you don’t want to add more acid you want to take some chlorophyll that will help it but if you don’t have that and you still have acid reflex then you want to take pane h of chloride like five before a meal and maybe some Alid of vinegar diluted in water drinking it through a straw but here’s the other thing I want to mention about this and that is called alkalosis okay where your pH becomes to alkaline and you have two types you have the metabolic alkalosis and also the respiratory alkalosis interesting both of these conditions have a indirect or direct effect on the CO2 again so when the pH of your blood changes it affects your CO2 and your oxygen and your breathing where does that come from well one cause is you’re you’re losing your stomach acids when you have a condition called achlorhydria which is a lack of stomach acids or even hypochlorhydria which is a diminished stomach acids one of the side effects is an alteration of your pH your body becomes more alkaline you could have breathing problems from this damaged esophagus issue you can have breathing problems also because you have this heartburn issue or a lack of stomach acid which it affects your pH and that alone can cause you to have air hunger again the same solution is acidify the body and betain hydrochloride and apple cider vinegar can help do that the other cause and this is something that I see quite frequently is a problem in your the tubes that connect to the gallbladder from the liver and that go into the small intestine and those tubes are called bile ducts and a lot of times those tubes Can U be filled with bile sludge this causes like a a lack of flow through those Ducks not necessarily even developing a stone it’s on the road to developing a stone but it hasn’t developed a stone yet usually it’s just Sledge and it’s really hard to diagnose uh but the point is that that when you obstruct those ducts and you don’t allow the flow of bile to go through it backs up into the liver and it swells up around the gallbladder and it affects the diaphragm which is right underneath the rib cage and it can also affect the franic nerve basically it’s a nerve from your neck to the diaphragm now think about what breathing problems involve right the diaphragm so you here you have this gallbladder B duct issue congestion whatever you want to call it that backs up that that breathing apparatus and that can affect your breathing big time and this usually can be easily corrected by changing your diet to the healthy version of the ketogenic diet within and fasting but it is an immediate remedy you want to take something called tdka it’s a type of bile salt that is very unique because it helps to increase the flow of bile sludge through the bile duck so you would take two of these in the morning on empty stomach and then two in the afternoon on an empty stomach and within a few days you’ll just feel a lot better if that is the problem now you can go get a functional test to look at this and assess it it’s very very expensive a much cheaper way to do it is just to buy a bottle of Tuka and then just take it and see if that doesn’
