Also, describe an area of interest related to one of the types of molecules, for example, cholesterol management, radiation therapy, acidosis, and alkalosis.
Explanation / Answer
Since a majority of people have low brain and body oxygen levels due to ineffective breathing (see links at the bottom of the page), it is normal that many of these chemical reactions are distorted. For example, hypoxic cells generate free radicals, favor chronic inflammation and acidic cellular environment. As a result, ineffective breathing adversely affects dozens, and maybe even hundreds, of chemical reactions in the human body. Therefore, the metabolism of proteins, lipids and carbohydrates, efficiency of the immune system, regulation of hormones, blood sugar level, and many other chemicals, are all connected to breathing. Clinical experience of about 200 Russian Buteyko MDs suggests that many serious abnormalities in metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates appear when a person has less than 20 seconds for the DIY body oxygen test.
