What effect does chronic hypoxia have on the body?

Oxygen is an important material basis for human survival, so long-term hypoxia will inevitably produce a series of hazards. Let's understand the relationship between disease and oxygen:

Hypoxia leads to decreased aerobic metabolic rate, enhanced anaerobic glycolysis, decreased metabolic efficiency and decreased immunity.

Hypoxia causes pulmonary vasoconstriction, pulmonary hypertension, and increased right ventricular burden, which finally leads to pulmonary heart disease;

Hypoxia can aggravate hypertension, increase the burden on left heart and cause arrhythmia;

Hypoxia stimulates the kidney to produce erythropoietin, which increases red blood cells in the body, blood viscosity, peripheral vascular resistance, heart burden, heart failure, myocardial infarction and cerebral thrombosis.

Hypoxia causes hepatocyte edema, degeneration and necrosis, liver dysfunction, liver fibrosis, renal vasoconstriction, renal tubular epithelial cell necrosis and renal insufficiency.

Hypoxia makes the whole physical condition enter a vicious circle of mutual influence;

Long-term chronic hypoxia of the brain can produce a series of mental and neurological symptoms, such as sleep disorder, mental decline, memory decline, abnormal behavior, personality change and so on.

Without exception, the blood indexes of diabetic patients are normal, the uric acid output is much higher than that of normal people, and they generally lack physical activity. When islet cells lack oxygen for a long time, it will lead to abnormal and insufficient insulin secretion.

Reducing the strain of insulin secretion on blood sugar, aggravating the lack of oxygen carrying capacity of blood, is not conducive to glucagon secretion, and will eventually develop into diabetes.

In addition, in the case of hypoxia, blood sugar can not be completely burned and used, and it stays in the body, which aggravates and accelerates the formation of diabetes and its complications.

Cardiovascular patients, due to lack of oxygen, lead to the increase of acidic substances in the body, leading to arteriosclerosis and blocked blood circulation, which leads to cardiovascular diseases.

All chronic diseases are related to hypoxia in the body.

Most cerebrovascular diseases are related to ischemia and hypoxia. Some are mainly caused by ischemia, and some are mainly caused by hypoxia. Such as coronary heart disease, coronary artery stenosis, blockage or spasm due to coronary atherosclerosis, which makes myocardial cells unable to get enough oxygen, leading to myocardial cell aging, injury, and even death, leading to heart disease.

Another example is myocardial infarction, which is a serious and persistent myocardial ischemia caused by coronary artery occlusion and blood flow interruption.

Another example is cerebral infarction, which is caused by a blood supply disorder in the brain, leading to local hypoxia and ischemia leading to brain tissue necrosis. Hypoxia, ischemia and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are mutually causal and become two life-threatening demons.

Therefore, the treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases should first consider solving the problem of hypoxia and ischemia.

Once the human body lacks oxygen, it will lead to the aging of human tissues, and then it will evolve into various diseases, because once it lacks oxygen, it will affect brain activity, nerve activity, digestive system and circulatory system.

As long as there is no oxygen, cells will be damaged immediately, die, and the body function and immune level will also decline.

There is no doubt about the relationship between hypoxia and disease. Improving the supply of oxygen, just like we ingest nutrition, can improve the comprehensive immunity of human body, clean the respiratory system, improve the visceral function, effectively improve sub-health, and is conducive to the rehabilitation of diseases and physical health.

How do we do this?

First, learn to breathe deeply. Give yourself a few minutes to practice breathing deeply every day. Especially in a state of tension, stress or fear, deep breathing in time can relieve stress.

The second is to keep the living room and working environment ventilated.

Third, get in touch with nature, go to forests with high oxygen content and negative ions or travel outside the city to breathe fresh air.

Fourthly, if you live in a city with serious pollution, it is necessary to install a good quality air freshener to filter impurities in the air and improve the air quality.

Air fresheners may not be used at all in rural areas, but it is necessary to live in cities with more and more serious pollution. We don't want to think, but the environment. Times are changing, and we can only change.

The appearance of air freshener is the result of social development. With the serious air pollution, it can be predicted that the popularity of air fresheners will be as popular as household appliances.
