What are the advantages and disadvantages of hyperbaric oxygen to the body?

Benefits:

1, eliminate fatigue and improve intelligence and work efficiency.

The oxygen consumption of human brain accounts for 20% of the whole body, and it is particularly sensitive to hypoxia. Insufficient oxygen supply will cause fatigue syndrome such as weakness, fatigue, dizziness, insomnia, memory loss and loss of appetite, which will affect people's intelligence and work efficiency. Oxygen inhalation can obviously improve the above symptoms.

2. Improve the body's resistance and prevent diseases.

Oxygen inhalation can enhance the metabolism of human cells, tissues and organs, enhance the functions of various organs, improve the immunity of the body, and have a good preventive and therapeutic effect on common diseases such as cerebral blood supply deficiency, cerebral infarction, coronary heart disease, nerve failure, etc.

3. Oxygen inhalation is good for beauty.

Inhalation can enhance the aerobic metabolism of human cells, strengthen skin nutrition, make loose skin more elastic and reduce wrinkles; The metabolic function of skin cells is enhanced, which can reduce pigmentation, reduce ecchymosis and beautify skin; Oxygen inhalation also helps to improve hair follicle nutrition, promote hair growth and prevent hair loss.

4. Regular oxygen inhalation can prevent senile diseases.

With the increase of age, arteriosclerosis and lung function decline, and the arterial oxygen partial pressure in the body gradually decreases. Oxygen inhalation can obviously increase the oxygen partial pressure and prevent various senile diseases.

5, help to improve male sexual function.

Oxygen health care is an advanced fitness method. Oxygen inhalation can enhance vision and improve presbyopia. Oxygen inhalation can also improve male sexual function, maintain vigorous energy and improve the quality of life. Oxygen can also promote the recovery of physical strength after exercise.

Disadvantages:

Like flying, there are tinnitus and buzzing noises during the process, and patients may feel a little uncomfortable. Patients can do some actions such as pinching their noses and inflating to reduce the pressure on the tympanic membrane. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can be used for chronic and acute diseases.

Extended data

Therapeutic mechanism

1, increase oxygen partial pressure, increase blood oxygen and tissue oxygen content;

2. Improve the diffusion speed and effective diffusion distance of oxygen;

3. Under hyperbaric oxygen, cerebral vessels contract, cerebral blood flow decreases, brain edema decreases, and intracranial pressure decreases accordingly;

4. Brain tissue is rich in blood vessels. Hyperbaric oxygen can not only promote collateral circulation to protect nerve cells in ischemic penumbra, but also form a large number of microvessels to repair some pathological cerebral vessels.

5. Prevent thrombosis and promote thrombus absorption;

6. Improve brain metabolism and restore brain function;

7. Awakening effect: Hayakwa test of 1974 proved that the blood flow of vertebral artery increased by 18% under the oxygen pressure of 2000 kpa, which made the oxygen pressure of brainstem reticular structure system increase, which was beneficial to the upward activation of the system and promoted the awakening and functional activities of life center;

8. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can correct metabolic disorder in time, prevent myocardial ischemia, hypoxia, pulmonary edema and pulmonary infection, improve liver and kidney function, promote detoxification and urination, maintain water and electrolyte balance, and improve nutrition. , and is conducive to improving the overall defense function of the body.
