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

  1. 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

that really helps you sleep and now you

know why because it increases more

oxygen because it increases more CO2 and

another thing you can do as a practice

routine is do box breathing it’s called

four four four and four so you’re

basically just going to breathe in for

four seconds you’re going to then hold

your breath for four seconds and then

you’re going to Exhale for four seconds

and then you’re going to hold this

exhalation for four seconds and you’re

just going to practice this okay uh

longer and longer and longer to see if

you can do it so that is going to help

you so nose breathing this box breathing

diaphragm breathing and also holding

your breath now of course you probably

want to do this supervise so that way if

you pass out it’s not a problem but you

can just do this on a low level I don’t

recommend practicing this while you’re

driving I can just see this now

um someone

um passes out and they crash and then

they mention my name Dr Burke told me to

hold my breath while I was driving well

I’m telling you right now don’t do this

while you’re driving okay now there are

several other things you can do to

increase this CO2 tolerance and I’m

going to put a link down of a website

that will give you a lot more

information about this but I just wanted

to give you the concept some basic

things that you can start doing if you

get an oximeter now you can actually

have some feedback and you can do your

own testing on yourself to see what

works and then you can prove it to

yourself but anyway there’s some great

information on this topic relating to

panic attacks and Asthma and I if you

haven’t seen my video on that I put it

up right here check it out
