How Oxygen Water Works

Benefits of Drinking Oxygen Water From The Big Pitcher

Millions are turning toward Alternate Oxygen Therapies for prevention and wellness.  The Big Pitcher, a pioneer product, is attractive, durable and will provide you with oxygenated drinking water for years. Protected by US patent number 6,712,341, The Big Pitcher provides an energy-efficient, steady supply of water saturated with dissolved oxygen at 11-15 milligrams per liter (11-15 parts per million, or ppm), the maximum natural saturation.

The Big Pitcher dissolves oxygen into your drinking water.  Oxygen is now no longer a gas, but becomes a property of the water itself. The chemical property of water, of course, is H₂O, but oxygen content is a physical property of water, just as pH, temperature and purity are.

• The Big Pitcher freshens your water for exquisite taste.
• Oxygen-rich water is absorbed immediately by soft tissue in the mouth and esophagus.
• Extra oxygen helps keep red blood cells healthy
• Oxygen-rich water washes every cell with healing, cleansing oxygen
• Extra oxygen helps cells produce more energy.
• A healthy oxygen balance insures rapid immune system response.
• A healthy oxygen balance keeps the body’s pH at the healthy level of about 7.4, since cellular energy is being created in an aerobic environment.

The Big Pitcher saturates your drinking water with more oxygen in less than 15 minutes and can run continually to provide you and your family healthy oxygenated water for pennies a day! Oxygenating water technology goes beyond filtration technology. This is the most convenient way to great tasting water and all for under $10 per year in energy costs.

Particulates and gases are removed and pathogens are neutralized.

Besides the benefits of having more oxygen in your drinking water, purification also occurs as fine bubbles remove particulates (organic and inorganic), physically "scrubbing" them out of solution, as well as oxidizing to some extent. In addition, the technical term for removing gases, both volatiles and semi-volatiles, is known as air sparging. And finally, an aerobic, or oxygenated, environment discourages and neutralizes the growth of pathogens in water, which are generally anaerobic. Bacteria, viruses and other pathogenic organisms will not flourish in an oxygenated environment.

The Big Pitcher gets rid of chlorine and improves the taste of your drinking water while helping deliver more oxygen to your body for cents a day and with no replaceable parts. It holds about a half gallon of water with the included pitcher.

Oxygen water will maintain at high level of oxygen in normal room temperatures for at least one hour. Oxygen levels deteriorate over time, and more rapidly in a warm or hot environment.  Over time you will notice a decrease in oxygenation due to mineral buildup, this is simple to clean.

Pulmonary function vs drinking oxyen-rich water

Back to the alveoli/capillary interface: this is where man has lived for eons. It's what breathing and the bloodstream exist for. This is where oxgyen as a gas is dissolved into fluid (often body fluid is as much as 99% water, depending on the medium) and off goes the oxygen-rich fluid to nourish the trillions of cells throughout the body.

But wait! Oxygen Orchard makes products to dissolve that same oxygen into water outside the body. The same thing happens in The Big Pitcher and the Oxygen Icon as happens at the alveoli/capillary interface. Drinking oxygen-rich water can't help but benefit the cells! Where else is the oxygen going to go?

There's one more thing to consider: Only about 25% of breathed oxygen is used by the body. The rest is exhaled. 100% of the oxygen in ambient air is dissolved into water from The Big Pitcher and the Oxygen Icon.

I'll get back to you on the math... but rememer this: All we need is oxygen!

10,000 mililiters per liter oxygen

The Big Pitcher dissolves oxygen from air into water. The process is widely accepted in water treatment circles. The maximum natural saturation -- maximum and natural the two key words here -- is about 10-12 parts per million (ppm), or mililiters per liter (ml/l). ppm and ml/l mean the same thing.

I've heard recently that misguided souls are spending unnecessarily for water claimed to be 10,000 ml/l! Well, it's physically impossible to saturate water with that volume of oxygen and besides -- WHO WOULD DRINK IT??? Certainly not I.

Human tissues are designed to operate under certain pressures. If the maximum natural saturation (and this is 99% saturation) is 10 ml/l , would you risk cellular oxygen toxicity?

The sad part is that the individual selling water to his patients doesn't have a clue. I'm told he's a wonderful physician and nice guy. It's the company who sold the oxygenating equipment to him own the lie. More on this later...

Vitamin E and its relationship to oxygen in the body

A book I highly recommend for your health library is Let's Eat Right to Keep Fit, by Adelle Davis. Born in 1904, Ms. Davis was a pioneer in the fledgling nutrition industry and was an outspoken and harsh critic of the American food industry, claiming that it was largely to blame for the myriad diseases of the twentieth century.

We'll be looking at some of her very well-referenced research during these next few blogs. First up is Vitamin E and its relationship to oxygen.

On the subject of scarring, Ms. Davis found that scarring occurs in a low-oxygen environment. Vitamin E, which she says helps the body utilize available oxygen more efficiently, helps skin tissue heal beautifully -- in the atmosphere's available oxygen. She cites many studies to support her findings.

It is this writer's educated opinion that Vitamin E, and in fact, all recommended vitamins and nutrients, are vital for health in that THEY HELP THE BODY TO UTILIZE OXYGEN MOST EFFICIENTLY. It's all about the oxygen folks.

In addition, scar tissue can be found throughout the body. Vitamin E is essential for healing that tissue with available oxygen.

Why not drink oxygenated water every day to help increase available oxygen to the body? Take Vitamin E and mediate on healing.

Next, Vitamin D and what Ms. Davis has to say. Profound.

How We Die

One of my favorite resources is a book entitled How We Die written by Sherwin B. Nuland. On page 65, Dr. Nuland talks about the human brain and the role of oxygen in brain's day-to-day function.

He says, "It takes a great deal of energy to keep the brain's engine functioning efficiently. Almost all of that energy is derived by the tissue's ability to break down glucose into its component parts of carbon dioxide and water, a biochemical process that requires a high level of oxygen. The brain does not have the capacity to keep any glucose in reserve; it depends on a constant immediate supply being brought to it by the coursing arterial blood. Obviously, the same is true of the oxygen. "

So here it is all in one paragraph. Keep eating right but MAKE SURE YOUR BODY IS OXYGEN BALANCED.

Stay tuned,

Cheers & wellwishes,

Theresa

Throwing up

I was talking to the FDA guy a couple of weeks ago about The Big Pitcher becoming an FDA-approved Medical Device (long journey but we'll get there) -- he was late returning my call because his child was nauseated and throwing up.

It was difficult to -- wait -- Miner # 14 just reached the surface! Chile! Chile! -- ok, where were we? I wanted to tell the FDA guy that a prime reason people throw up is the body's automatic response to oxygen demand.

Digestion requires enormous amounts of oxygen -- getting rid of undigested food, called digesta, is the survival response when a virus or bacterial infection invades the body. More oxygen is needed to oxidize these intruders, thus the body's autoimmune response to the oxygen demand.

I wanted to tell the FDA guy that, but you all would have been proud of my restraint. They can read the book.

Cheers & wellwishes,
Teri

Red and processed meats and cancer

You've heard it before -- eating red meat causes cancer. Well, a huge study by the World Cancer Fund has found a convincing link between red meat consumption and elevated risk of colon cancer, as well as a likely link with cancers of the lung, stomach, pancreas, esophagus, prostate and uterus.

The study is huge because it's based on 7,000 health reports selected from a worldwide pool of 500,000 health reports spanning five decades! Wow. That really is huge!

Want to know why? Let's go back to our lesson about Biochemical Oxygen Demand. This is the relative demand on available oxygen of everything we eat, drink, breathe (and smoke). The molecules of meat, sugar, starch, protein, nicotine, vitamins, fatty tissue, etc. MUST be metabolized into elemental form -- all requiring varying degrees of oxygen. Grean leafy vegetables don't require much oxygen but a big old Porterhouse requires a ton.

More oxygen spent on metabolic activity means less oxygen to bathe cells in healing, healthful oxygen. More oxygen spent on metabolic activity means less oxygen for detoxifying each cell. More oxygen spent on metabolic activity means less oxygen for vital organ function.

We are all about the why here @ Oxygen Orchard.

Cheers and wellwishes,
Teri

A new way to lose weight!

A recent post from HealthDay News exhorts us to "close the diet books and skip the pills!".

Their advice is partially true: Drink a couple of glasses of water before meals and you'll lose pounds. Sounds easy, right? If you're full of water, you won't eat as much, but there's more to it.

Fatty tissue has plenty of carbon and hydrogen atoms but very few oxygen atoms. Your body is constantly equalizing itself -- that's called homeostasis -- and that fat wants more oxygen to metabolize itself.

By supplying more oxygen to your body, the fat goes away faster. So, yes, drink water before and after meals -- but drink oxygen-rich water for extra diet oomph.

Weight Watchers, do you copy?

We're all about the why @ Oxygen Orchard, Inc.

Cheers & wellwishes,
Teri

I recently learned that people who stand in the observation area of Niagra Falls experience euphoria. Those who ride the Maid of the Mist behind the falls experience an even greater sense of euporia.

There's a reason and of course, it's all about oxygen. Each droplet of water is as oxygenated as water can get -- naturally. Breathing these oxygen-enriched droplets gives a boost to the brain as the water droplets transfer the supplemental oxygen to the body's bloodstream.

This morning I board a plane to attend a cousin's surprise 60th b'day. While on that plane, my body will have to work a little harder to attain its optimal oxygenated state. Here's why:

Planes have had to be built with as little extra weight as possible. As aerodynamics and the design of planes has evolved, the "skin" of the plane has become thinner and thinner.

Air pressure inside the plane has become lower and lower, in order to maintain the integrity of the skin.

While oxygen levels in the air of the plane has been maintained, and with the lower pressure, your respiratory/circulatory systems must work a bit harder to deliver life-giving oxygen to each and every cell.

Can you say jet lag?

all-encompassing

Friends,

You’d be surprised at how often, in medical and scientific textbooks, the word oxygen isn’t in the index. That's odd, you may think, but the omission is indicative of the dearth of scientific study of the role of oxygen.

When articles appear about results from clinical trials or studies, in almost every instance, the what is reported but the why still remains a mystery.

We have found the why. Oxygen’s role in sickness and in health is the why.

In the wonderful book by Sherwin B. Nuland called How We Die, Dr. Milton Helpern, who was for twenty years the Chief Medical Examiner of New York City is quoted:

Death may be due to a wide variety of diseases and disorders, but in every case the underlying physiological cause is a breakdown in the body’s oxygen cycle.

Nuland, himself a surgeon and teacher of medicine, goes on to say, “Simplistic though it may sound to a sophisticated biochemist, this pronouncement (above) is all-encompassing. If one were to name the universal factor in all death, whether cellular or planetary, it would certainly be loss of oxygen.”

Of course, varying degrees of “death” are happening to all of us all the time. Health is simply the result of controlling those degrees.

There are thousands of references that support and explain the relationship between oxygen and physiology. No one else, that I am aware of, has this body of information at hand. I have studied oxygen/water since 1985 and related biochemistry since 2000.

All-encompassing. The Big Pitcher is just the tip of the iceberg. Three years in SkyMall Magazine has raised awareness of the concept of oxygenated water but there is enormous work to be done. The market is limitless.

We are the cutting edge. Help us. Join us. Let’s change the world together.

Cheers and wellwishes,

Teri

Chronic Oxygen Debt Syndrome

Chronic Oxygen Debt Syndrome^© is the relatively new term for a condition long known to cause a host of diseases in man. 

How often are we advised of the following do/don’t list:  exercise, eat low-fat, low-carb, low-calorie,  no sodas or sweets, get a good night’s sleep, manage stress, moderate alcohol intake and definitely no smoking. 
The lowest common denominator to the do/don’t list is this:  each pathway has an oxygen-related component. 

That is, if we follow the advice of what to do and what not to do, our oxygen cycle will be in healthy balance.  For everything we eat/drink/feel, there should be enough oxygen to metabolize it all.   No more free radicals, no more anaerobic energy production creating an acidic pH, no more fatigue. 

Most of us, though, do not adhere to the do/don’t list as we should.  What then of our oxygen balance?  Chronic Oxygen Debt Syndrome is what we call the on-going result of not enough of the dos and too much of the don’ts.  It’s what happens when we don’t take perfect care of ourselves. 

And Chronic Oxygen Debt Syndrome is responsible for disease and aging.
There is enormous probability of impaired oxygen transfer and cellular oxygen uptake in the majority of today's adult population, hence the interest in Alternate Oxygen Therapies, and specifically in oxygen-enriched drinking water.

Long-term ingestion of oxygen-enriched water should apply to the majority of the population, most of whom suffer from Chronic Oxygen Debt Syndrome.

The Big Pitcher Eliminates Chlorine In Your Drinking Water

Chlorine has been used as an effective disinfectant in drinking water supplies for nearly 100 years. Chlorine is considered necessary to destroy many of the bacteria in your drinking water.

Health officials are concerned with the chlorinating by-products, also known as "chlorinated hydrocarbons" or trihalomethanes (THM's). Most THM's are formed in drinking water when chlorine reacts with naturally occurring substances such as decomposing plant and animal materials. Risk for certain types of cancer are now being correlated to the consumption of chlorinated drinking water.

The President's Council on Environmental Quality states that "there is increased evidence for an association between rectal, colon and bladder cancer and the consumption of chlorinated drinking water." Suspected carcinogens make the human body more vulnerable through repeated ingestion and research indicates the incidence of cancer is 44% higher among those using chlorinated water.

Even though the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) adopted new regulations in 1980 for cities to lower the chlorination by-products in water to level not exceeding 100 parts per billion, experts believe that it still doesn't provide proper safeguards and should be strengthened. Unfortunately, there is a little likelihood that the use of chlorine will be discontinued since it is currently the most economically acceptable chemical for bacterial control at this time.

It is ironic that the process of chlorination, by which we cleanse our water of infectious organisms, can create cancer-causing substances from otherwise innocent chemicals in water.

Oxygen - Friend and Foe

By: Jess Ba-ad
Oxidation is a natural occurrence. It happens when some atoms or molecules reacts with oxygen. Oxygen is like a magnet for electrons. Molecules whose electrons are not tightly bonded to its nucleus tends to give up an electron to the oxygen. That molecule is then said to be oxidized.

Most stable atoms and molecules have electrons that are in pairs. If one of the electrons loses its pair (becomes a free radical), their tendency is to 'steal' an electron from neighboring atoms to make itself 'whole' so to speak. This becomes the onset of a free radical chain reaction until an antioxidant is encountered.

We witness oxidation in our everyday lives: iron rusts when exposed to oxygen, meat of fruits turning brown when exposed to oxygen, meat fat getting rancid when exposed to oxygen.

We breathe oxygen and our blood distributes it to our cells giving us life and at the same time exposing our insides to possible free radical chain reactions.

The mitochondria, the energy producer of a cell, requires oxygen to manufacture energy. The process undergoes several controlled oxidation of several molecules until energy(ATP) is produced. A by-product of this process are free radicals. Heavy physical activities can multiply these by-product of free radicals several times because the cells need more oxygen to produce more energy. As the energy production grows, free radical by-product also grows.

Free radical chain reactions can damage or 'deform' healthy cells. The onset of many degenerative diseases may be caused by these damages that free radicals leave behind. Some diseases that may be caused by free radicals are Alzheimer's disease, cardiovascular disease, macular degeneration and even cancer.

Researchers has also discovered that cell damages caused by free radicals are one of the factors that causes aging. Minimizing free radical chain reactions can increase our average life span.

Since oxidation is a natural occurrence, our bodies are also equipped with 'defenses' for that.

Antioxidants are molecules that can give up or donate an electron to another molecule without becoming unstable or reactive. When a free radical 'steals' an electron from an antioxidant, the chain reaction stops.

Our bodies have internal antioxidants on 'stand by' to stop free radical reactions. Some of these are:
Superoxide Dismutase(SOD)
Glutathione
CoQ10

But sad to say, some internal antioxidants are produced less by our bodies as we age especially when we reach about the age of 30.

Glutathione levels can be raised by supplementing with N-Acetyl Cysteine. N-Acetyl Cysteine not only raises glutathione levels but has other properties that are really beneficial to our bodies.

CoQ10 is also better supplemented as we age. Like N-Acetyl Cysteine, it is not only a potent antioxidant but it also has other properties that benefits our bodies. Read more on CoQ10 at: http://users2.nofeehost.com/feelgoodwithantioxidants/antioxidant_red_wine_extract.htm#coq10

Assisting these 'internal' antioxidants, we also take in 'external' antioxidants from the food we eat like:
Vitamin C
Vitamine E
Beta Carotene(Vitamin A)
Bioflavonoids from fruits and vegetables

The food we eat may not be enough to supplement our antioxidant requirements mainly because of our eating habits. It would take quite a discipline to stick to a diet to meet our antioxidant needs.

There are also external causes that can build up free radical reactions in our body like smoking, toxic fumes, second hand smoke from smokers and radiation from sunlight. Even irregular exercise can cause free radical chain reactions.

Funny how oxygen can be life giving and at the same time life threatening. But this is the world we live in - everything has an opposite; male-female, light-dark, cold-hot, peace-war. What matters is how we deal with it.

Health Benefits Of Drinking Oxygen Water - Improves Your Cellular Health Naturally

Copyright (c) 2010 Kenneth Lee
The health benefits of drinking water is something you cannot take for granted since the natural water is the source of your health and longevity.

Without water, the body would stop working properly. Water makes up 75 percent of the body weight and a person can't survive for more than a few days without it. For example, your blood, which contains a lot of water, carries oxygen to all the cells of your body. Without oxygen, those tiny cells would die and your body would simply stop working.

The body's cells are affected by genetic programming and sufficient quantities of water and oxygen. Each cell must be nourished by oxygen and water, when either water or oxygen is missing, your cellular structures deteriorates.

Cellular deterioration is caused by environmental factors, such as pollution, industrial waste, radiation and exposure to trace metals - all the things we are exposed to every day.

People have a recipe for cell degeneration whenever they add the stress of keeping up with their life's demands. This radical cell damage is what caused aging. We notice this free-radical cell damage on our skin, which become less resilient, resulting in wrinkles. As we get older, we begin to have less stamina, energy and mental focus.

You can think of your body as a fire, it really needs fuel such as wood, but it must have oxygen to increase the flames. My point is your body needs lot of oxygen around your cells, anything you could do to increase the amount of oxygen in your body can benefit your cellular health and slow the aging process.

Of course, you want to build up your immune defenses and improve the quality of your health, right? The question is how do you get enough oxygen? The simple answer is drinking water.

The water tastes like natural spring water; the biggest difference is it comes with a patented the natural energy-advancing formula. This nutraceutical beverage helps oxygenate and nourish your cells, it increase your blood oxygen level in your body and brain, the way you experience more stamina, energy, and endurance naturally.

Here's list of additional health benefits of the natural energy-advancing formula include as below:

1. Helps enhancing the absorption of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, proteins and other important nutrients.
2. Helps recover fatigue quickly.
3. Helps support healthy circulation system.
4. Helps strengthen the immune system.
5. Helps increase concentration and restore mental alertness.
6. Helps improve memory and prevent memory loss. # Helps relieve stress and anxiety.
7. Promotes an anti-inflammatory response in your body.

 As you can see, there are lots of the life-improving benefits of drinking water, no matter you used to drink other brand's spring or distilled water, you can try this nutraceutical beverage and experience it and see how you would feel.

If this natural energy-advancing formula really works for you, you can REPLACE coffees, vitamin water, other energy juices and other health supplements with this nutraceutical beverage without having to change your habit.

It was reported that many people still underestimated the importance of drinking water; you should not be one of them!

Alternative Cancer Treatments - Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

By: Bianca Tavares

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is a treatment which essentially involves providing the body with extra oxygen. The word 'Hyper' means 'increased' and 'Baric' refers to pressure. As we all know, Oxygen is one of the gases in the air that we breathe and is essential for life. The air that we breathe normally contains 21% oxygen. Breathing in 100% oxygen under increased pressure within a hyperbaric chamber allows extra oxygen to be forced into the blood stream and dissolved at a much faster rate than if pressure was not used. Another effect is the increased oxygen transport capacity of the blood. Under atmospheric pressure, oxygen transport is limited by the oxygen binding capacity of hemoglobin in red blood cells, which almost reaches saturation at atmospheric pressure, very little oxygen being transported by plasma. However Oxygen transport by plasma is significantly increased under HBO therapy.This extra oxygen can help where healing is retarded due to infection or limited blood supply through tissue damage.

Benefits of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy:
- HBO facilitates the growth of new blood vessels, enabling the transport of additional blood; - HBO augments the body's natural defence mechanisms to fight infection and kill bacteria; - HBO helps reduce any swelling that may occur around an area subjected to radiotherapy.

The treatment is normally painfree and is carried out in specially-designed chambers known as "hyperbaric chambers". There are two basic types of chamber: monoplace chambers and a multiplace chambers.

A monoplace hyperbaric chamber for treating one person at a time and involves the patient lying on a padded stretcher that is then slid into a clear plastic chamber about 2ft in width. Once inside, the door is closed and the chamber is pressurised.

Multiplace hyperbaric chambers can treat several people at a time. The multiplace chamber is the type most frequently used. These chambers are big enough to accommodate sometimes as many as a dozen patients at a time and it is possible to walk into them. Patients either sit on benches or lie inside these chambers. 100% pure oxygen is administered via either a mask or a clear plastic hood. HBO sessions usually last from one to three hours depending on the nature of the treatment program. Treatment sessions within the hyperbaric chamber are normally repeated over several days or even weeks.
HBO therapy is increasingly being used for helping patients who have been subjected to conventional radiotherapy treatment for cancer and are now suffering the after-effects. A major problem with radiotherapy is that, since it not only kills cancer cells but also nearby healthy cells at the same time, it can cause changes in the oxygen supply to tissues in the treated area, since less blood is supplied to the area. The result is that it becomes more difficult oxygen and essential nutrients to reach the tissues. Over a period of time these tissues can become very fragile, break down and ulcerate. Sometimes tissue can even completely die (radiation necrosis).

Studies indicate that HBO therapy can be effective in the following conditions:
- Chronic lymphoedema in breast cancer; - Chronic radiation cystitis; - Pelvic cancer; - Bowel cancer; - Prostate cancer; - Osteoradionecrosis; - Chronic radiation proctitis; - Acute blood loss anemia
I hope that this brief article on Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy has provided a brief insight into the importance of oxygen in the correct functioning of the body, plus its role not only in the treatment of cancer but also how it can be used in overcoming some of the serious adverse side effects of conventional cancer treatments. Perhaps it will encourage you to further investigate this fascinating subject. As always, you should seek the guidance of a professional medical fractioned before taking any medications or undergoing any form of therapy.

Discover How Oxygen Therapy Can Improve your Health

By: Chuck JaymesDid you know that each year hundreds of thousands of Americans are diagnosed with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)? Many of these individuals and others who suffer from various lung diseases will be required to receive oxygen therapy. Numerous studies have determined that adults with chronic lung disorders who receive oxygen therapy not only live longer, they also have an improved quality of life.

Lack of adequate oxygen, often referred to as oxygen deficiency, can lead to a number of serious health problems. Untreated oxygen deficiency can reduce lung function to the extent that long-term oxygen therapy is required to continue normal bodily function. Oxygen deficiency has been linked to every major illness category including heart disease, respiratory disease and cancer. All heart attacks are brought about by the failure of the heart muscle's inability to receive adequate supplies of oxygen. Inadequate oxygen levels in the body weakens the immune system which can lead to viral infections, damaged cells, inflamed joints and circulatory problems.

Warning Signs of Possible Oxygen Deficiency:

• Shortness of breath
• Fatigue
• Dizziness
• Depression
• Memory loss
• Circulation problems
• Irritability
• Irrational behavior
• Poor digestion
• Muscle aches and pains

If you are experiencing some or all of these symptoms, you should see your physician immediately. A doctor's prescription is required to receive oxygen therapy. If oxygen therapy is prescribed, you will discover a number of substantial health benefits. Besides reducing the amount of strain on the heart that can lead to heart failure, receiving oxygen allows the bodies other major organs to function properly. Oxygen therapy reduces sleep disruption caused by inadequate oxygen, increasing energy levels and giving you an overall feeling of well being.

Additional Oxygen Therapy Benefits:

• Provides headache relief
• Increases mental clarity
• Decreases shortness of breath
• Allows for increased physical activity
• Relieves nausea

There are 3 methods for receiving oxygen therapy: compressed oxygen cylinders, liquid oxygen cylinders and oxygen concentrators. Many oxygen therapy patients are discovering that today's vastly improved portable oxygen concentrators are the way to go. Not only do portable oxygen concentrators provide increased mobility, they are also energy efficient and easy to maintain. There is no refilling or deliveries to schedule with oxygen concentrators. If your doctor has prescribed oxygen therapy, let innovative portable oxygen concentrators like the SeQual Eclipse and Inogen One allow you to lead a full and active life.

Oxygen- The Most Vital Element to Human Health- Are You Getting the Oxygen You Need?

Author: L. Nichols
Oxygen is the most vital element for the human body. So why is it then, the one element of our health that we all take for granted. The answer is simple- while we are breathing one breath after another, we just presume that we are getting enough of it! The truth is though, that this is not the case. 200 years ago the quality of the air was much higher with an oxygen quantity of 30%. Today though, as a result of global pollution and the depletion of our natural resources the air only contains 19% oxygen and in some cities as low as 10% oxygen.

Oxygen in the blood stream nourishes the body's cells, creates energy and helps break down waste products and toxins. It creates immune system defense and it regulates the body's pH balance. Oxygen plays a crucial role in the fight against disease. It has been proven that diseases such as Cancer thrive in an acid pH, so it is imperative that we oxygenate our bodies and maintain an Alkaline pH if we wish to maintain our health and wellness.

Oxygen in the body is necessary for all vital functions and the elimination of waste products. Oxygen gives our bodies the fighting power to resist pathogens, bacteria and viruses.

Cardiovascular physiologist Dr Arthur Guyton MD has been quoted as saying "All chronic suffering is caused from lack of oxygen at the cell level".

It is a proven fact that oxygen deficiency eventually leads to disease or illness of some form. "Insufficient oxygen means insufficient biological energy that can result in anything from mild fatigue to life threatening disease" as quoted by Dr W Spencer Way- who wrote in the Journal of the American Association of Physicians.

There are many factors that cause Oxygen Deficiency. Some of these are : Overcooking our food which kills the enzymes, Breathing carbon monoxide fumes which strips oxygen from the blood, Eating processed foods that have little or no oxygen content and are full of chemicals, Drinking tap water with chemical additives such as flouride, De-forestation, Alcohol and Lack of exercise.

Exercise is the easiest way to get oxygen into the bloodstream. The problem is though, that in today's society the majority of people are not making time, or simply cannot find the time to exercise.

Dr Paris Kid PhD is quoted as saying "We can look at oxygen deficiency as the single greatest cause of all disease!" Oxygen deprivation to the cells can cause a wide range of conditions, some of these are: premature aging, body weakness, muscle aches, stress and anxiety, irritability, fatigue, circulation problems, viral infections, poor digestion, bacterial and fungal infections and memory loss.

It is a proven fact that diseases such as cancer and AIDS, herpes and hepatitis, cannot tolerate high oxygen cells in the blood stream. This alone is reason enough to make a conscious effort to ensure you are oxygenating the blood. If you feel that factors of your environment could be depleting the oxygen supply to your bloodstream, be sure to take a daily oxygen supplement to help counteract these factors.

Does Your Body Need More Oxygen?

By: gennew9

There is not as much oxygen in our environment today as there was hundreds of years ago. At one time the oxygen level was at 38%, now it is at 21%, and in some cities, even as low as 18%. Thus in our present environment, we have only about half the oxygen that our bodies were designed to run on in order to be in good health.

Without adequate oxygen, our body fluids and blood can become dirty and toxic. Viruses, fungus, parasites, and unfriendly germs thrive in an environment that is low in oxygen, high in carbon dioxide, and high in acid or a low pH factor.

A Lack of Oxygen can cause:

• Circulation problems
• Memory loss
• Irrational behavior
• Irritability
• Poor Digestion
• Muscle aches & pains
• Lung problems
• Dizziness
• Depression
• Body weakness
• And the list goes on

The body needs Adequate Oxygen for:

• Energy
• Digestion
• Removing toxins
• Fueling the muscles
• Metabolizing fat & carbohydrates
• Maintaining a healthy immune system
• Removing viruses, parasites, and bacteria
• Keeping the heart pumping & healthy
• Helping the lungs to breathe
• vAnd the list goes on

According to Dr. Otto Warburg, winner of the Nobel Prize for cancer research. “Cancer has only one prime cause. It is the replacement of normal oxygen respiration of the body’s cells by an anaerobic cell respiration.” Otherwise, there is not enough oxygen at the cellular level.

In addition, an insufficient supply of oxygen to the tissues, is a major cause of our worst diseases, including heart disease.

So what can you do to increase the oxygen level to your cells and provide your body with the oxygen it needs for optimum health? Here are six suggestions:

1. Get more physical exercise
