Carbon Dioxide | Not Just A Waste Gas

Do you know how important carbon dioxide (CO2) is to our breathing? Oxygen Advantage® founder and Director of Education and Training, Patrick McKeown shows us how essential CO2 is for oxygen uptake in the blood and how by breathing too much air we can actually reduce our blood/oxygen levels. It is a long held myth that taking big gulps of air in through our mouth, into our lungs in big upper-chest breaths is how we increase our oxygen (O2) levels in the blood. This is entirely untrue. Patrick explains the role of haemoglobin and how CO2 is not just a waste gas but an essential indicator, telling the body when we need to breathe. More CO2 in the blood means the body feels a stronger “air hunger” and signals the brain to increase breaths in order to increase O2 levels. However, with functional nasal breathing we can control the levels of carbon dioxide in our lungs and in doing so, reduce our sensitivity to CO2 meaning we can greatly improve our blood/oxygen levels and in doing so, our performance and endurance. 🔗 CONNECT WITH Patrick McKeown (Oxygen Advantage®) 💻 Website - https://oxygenadvantage.com/ 🎙Podcast - https://oxygenadvantage.com/podcasts/ 📹 YouTube Channel -   / oxygenadvantage   📸 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/oxygenadvan... 📱Facebook -   / theoxygenadvantage   💼 LinkedIn -   / oxygenadvantage   🐥 Twitter - https://twitter.com/oxygenadvantage?l...
