now we’ve all been told that getting more oxygen into our cells is a really really good thing so many diseases occur because of this lack of oxygen whether it’s ischemia hypoxia whatever oxygen is a good thing so today I’m going to reveal a secret of how to increase a valuable oxygen into your cells and so you probably already know that sleeping with the window open is going to help increase oxygen maybe having more plants in your room are going to give you more oxygen okay you also probably know that exercise will increase oxygen specifically aerobic type exercise that’s the exercise that occurs maybe when you’re walking or a slight jog being outside in nature will also give you more oxygen right I recently did a video and talked about methylene blue can give you more oxygen to the cells which is pretty interesting but there is a very interesting secret about oxygen that I’m going to share with you right now that you may or may not know about in order to increase the available oxygen into the cells the release of oxygen out of your blood cells there is a trigger there is this thing that controls it and that is CO2 that’s right CO2 you see you probably thought CO2 was a waste product and it’s not needed you know as you’re breathing out all the CO2 and by the way when you’re breathing out an average person is probably breathing out I don’t know maybe 25 to 75 percent oxygen so it’s not all CO2 you’re breathing a lot of oxygen out too because it’s not being absorbed CO2 is the key for the releasing of o2 and it’s called the Bora effect Bohr effect CO2 tells the body to release O2 and the way it works is that CO2 increases the acidity makes things more acid and then that loosens up the oxygen so it can then be released take a look at someone that is starving from oxygen someone that is in a panic attack right what are they doing they are hyperventilating what happens when you’re hyperventilate is you’re trying to get a lot of oxygen right but you’re not getting a lot of CO2 what is the most common recommendation when someone is hyperventilating breathe in a paper bag what does that do that increases the CO2 allowing the oxygen then to go into the cells so it might be a really good thing to actually buy an oximeter you can usually get them as a kind of a pulse oximeter checks your pulse rate and oxygen saturation and normally it should be between 95 and 99 okay and we’re looking at how much oxygen is saturated in your blood it’s a pretty cool test and it’ll kind of give you a reading of what’s going on and so in this video I’m going to show you how to increase the oxygen and raise it up to 99 or even a hundred and you can do this test on yourself at first when you think about it’s very contourintuitive um we’re going to increase our CO2 to increase our oxygen sounds weird but it really works now a couple ways that you can increase more CO2 breathe through your nose versus breathing through your mouth yeah that’s right breathing through your nose gives you more oxygen you would think when you’re sleeping that it would restrict the air which it does and it would restrict the oxygen but it doesn’t you’ll have a much better sleep if you breathe through your nose now this is not all about just increasing your CO2 to 100 we need a balance of oxygen and CO2 okay all we’re trying to do is balance it when we’re under stress our breathing changes and we no longer balance the CO2 with the O2 we actually are getting more oxygen and not enough CO2 when we’re under stress and that’s just probably counterintuitive when you think about it but the solution is to increase more CO2 and you can do that by simple breathing as well like slowing down your breath okay and balancing out the inhalation with the exhalation there is one study which I’ll put down below that they added more CO2 to this oxygen and they gave this mixture of air to these group of people who all had hypoxia that’s a condition where you have lack of oxygen right and they all increase their oxygen saturation which is really interesting so you’ll have to prove this to yourself to see if it’s true but you will find it is true but by increasing your CO2 uh you can greatly help stress anxiety disorders panic attacks you can decrease inflammation you can resolve many times depression you can increase your endurance with exercise you can decrease symptoms of respiratory problems like COPD or weaknesses within the lungs from past injury you’ll even be able to hold your breath longer so how do we do this well the first thing you need to do is to do a test to determine something to determine your carbon dioxide CO2 tolerance how well your body is able to tolerate CO2 and it’s a very simple test okay and I recommend you do it laying down on your back on the floor okay all you need is some type of a timing mechanism some type of watch and because you’re going to just record the timing so to do this you’re going to nose breathe just only breathe through your nose and you’re just going to inhale and exhale three times with a timing of three seconds so three seconds in three seconds out three seconds in three seconds out and just do that three times now on the fourth time you’re going to expand your lungs and breathe in as much as you can so that fourth inhalation is a very large inhalation now as you time this next phase you’re going to be timing the slow continuous exhalation of air from that inhalation and so you’re not going to want to hold your breath you’re not going to want to pause you just want to slowly let the air out and you’re going to time it right and see how long that takes but it has to be slow and continuous and so you’re going to record the time until you run out of air okay so now that you do that okay if it’s 20 seconds or less you’re in poor condition as far as your respiratory system your ability to tolerate CO2 your stress is probably pretty bad you probably have a low tolerance to stress you probably have anxiety you probably can’t exercise for a long time as well you probably run out of gas if you’re between 20 seconds and 40 seconds you’re in the average group okay so not really great not terrible but right in the middle if this exhalation is between 40 seconds and 60 seconds you’re above average okay not really good but you’re definitely right in that intermediate area you’re definitely above average now if that timing was between 60 and 80 Seconds you are considered Advanced okay you have good stress tolerance you have good endurance you’re in pretty good shape you can handle stress pretty good if you’re over 80 Seconds you are in the category of elite okay this is like an elite athlete you have excellent stress responses excellent cardiovascular great tolerance to CO2 so that is the goal is to get you over 80. so what I want you to do right now is do this test and record your number in the comments down below okay I want to read the comments I want to see results I want to see where you’re at now the question is how do we increase this tolerance to ultimately increase your ability to get oxygen in your cells because it’s not just about oxygen it’s about the oxygen availability to the cells which is dependent on the CO2 and again we’re just trying to balance the CO2 with the oxygen so a couple things to do okay start doing nose breathing keep your mouth shut when you sleep right and then even to the day when you’re driving breathe through your nose another thing you can do is start breathing uh with emphasis on your diaphragm like just focusing on breathing in through your stomach not to your chest okay and you’re going to slowly breathe in so you’re pushing out your stomach and then exhale slowly so we’re going to balance this and I’ve talked about this technique to help you sleep as well start focusing on your sleep making sure that your inhalation equals the exhalation and t
