Features of using an oxygen concentrator


Why do you need an oxygen cocktail and additional oxygen in general?

To get started, a few simple questions:

  • Do you smoke?
  • Does it happen that you abuse alcohol?
  • Would you describe your work as hard and stressful?
  • Do you spend more than 8 hours in the city?
  • Do you visit public places?

The more you answered “Yes,” the more you need a source of additional oxygen.

If you smoke and/or spend a lot of time in the city , your lungs are contaminated. Tar, dust and airborne particles literally reduce the ability of your respiratory system to consume the oxygen it needs. In addition, smoking saturates your blood with carbon monoxide (CO), which binds to hemoglobin and prevents oxygen molecules from getting there. And the only way to “knock out” a carbon monoxide molecule is to increase the concentration of oxygen in the blood. How can it be increased if the lungs of a smoker and a city resident cannot fully absorb oxygen from the air?

The more you drink alcohol, the more oxygen is required to remove it from the body! The less it remains for the processes of regeneration and restoration.

The more stress you experience during the day, the more oxygen your body burns during and after the stress phase. The less it remains for the processes of regeneration and restoration.

Do you visit public places? Office, transport, cafes, cinemas, clubs, etc? Get ready to fight the billions of bacteria and viruses that live there. But, of course, it will not be you who will fight, but your immunity. And he can only win if the cells of the immune system have enough oxygen to reproduce and maintain vital functions.

Not only you, but also your children need additional oxygen. Since they also experience psychological and physical stress at school and kindergarten and are the first to get sick during epidemics.

Preventive oxygen therapy is often prescribed to pregnant women as an effective means of combating fetaplacental insufficiency and fetal hypoxia.

How to make an oxygen cocktail at home?

In order to improve your health with the help of an oxygen cocktail, there is no need to visit medical institutions. Modern equipment allows you to prepare a drink without even leaving home.

In order to prepare an oxygen cocktail, you will need to purchase a special oxygen mixer or oxygen cocktail. This will allow you to whip the base into a foam. The source of oxygen can be a cylinder; the amount of oxygen in it depends on its volume. The cylinder will need to be refilled periodically. Moreover, the gas itself can be stored in it for a very long time. At the pharmacy you can buy an oxygen pillow, which is equipped with a convenient tap. Another source of oxygen is an oxygen concentrator, which is the most convenient option for home use. Such a device is not cheap, but it can independently release oxygen from the air.

Egg white in dry or liquid form, licorice root extract or special compositions are used as a foaming agent. It is best to give preference to the latter option, since modern foaming agents are safe for health and designed taking into account the needs of the human body.

The next step comes down to deciding on the base for the cocktail. To do this, you can take juice that does not contain pulp, milk, decoctions of medicinal herbs, fruit drinks or syrups that are produced specifically for making cocktails.

For 100 ml of base, take 10 g of foaming agent, mix these two components thoroughly and supply oxygen to them. You need to drink the drink immediately, before the beneficial gas evaporates.

It should be taken into account that in its pure form, oxygen is an extremely explosive substance. Therefore, the containers in which it is contained should be kept away from heating devices and away from direct sunlight.

What happens if there is not enough oxygen?

A brain cell can live without oxygen for about 7 seconds, other cells a little longer, but also not for long. Lack of oxygen in tissues, scientifically known as “tissue hypoxia,” leads to death and mutations of young, healthy cells. In fact, this leads to inflammation, dysfunction, and in the medium term, tumors of internal organs.

Nature, when creating man, did not provide him with a reserve for bad habits, life in big cities, colossal stress load and all other factors of modern life. Therefore, the more oxygen you “take” to eliminate all the consequences of modern life, the less it will be left for the processes of regeneration and restoration.

The harm of a cocktail

Despite the fact that the medicinal drink consists mainly of natural ingredients, it can have a negative effect on the body. It has contraindications, which include:

  • hypertension;
  • inflammatory diseases of the stomach;
  • stomach ulcer;
  • diabetes;
  • hypersensitivity to components;
  • adhesive disease of the gastrointestinal tract.

An absolute contraindication is the presence of bronchial asthma or kidney stones or bladder stones.

Harm to the body can also be caused by excessive or improper use of the composition. Excess oxygen in the body can cause complications of chronic diseases, as well as cause acute inflammatory processes in the tissues of internal organs.

If the dosage is exceeded, one can expect the movement of kidney stones, and this will lead to an acute inflammatory process. Also, abuse can provoke the progression of stomach ulcers and increase the symptoms of gastritis with high acidity.

Oxygen cocktail: benefit or harm.

What is better - breathing concentrated oxygen or drinking an oxygen cocktail?

Breathing is a more natural way of obtaining oxygen, inherent in nature. In addition, this process can be combined with aromatherapy using aroma oils. This makes the procedure enjoyable and allows you to get additional benefits from aromatherapy. Remember, aromatic oils require careful handling, as they can cause allergic reactions in some people. You should only buy oils for inhalation at a pharmacy! Carefully read the instructions for the oil and consult your doctor!

An oxygen cocktail is a foam-air mixture of oxygen with juices, herbal solutions and other liquids. In this case, oxygen absorption occurs through the walls of the stomach. Using an oxygen cocktail is a cheaper and more widespread method of oxygen therapy. It is convenient when you need to quickly improve the health of many people. For example: at school, office or kindergarten.

To prepare an oxygen cocktail, you need a cocktail maker and foaming ingredients.

How to prepare an oxygen cocktail with minimal calorie content

If you want to use oxygen cocktails for weight loss, then you need to make sure that the desserts have a minimum of calories. Let's figure out how to achieve this.

  • Carefully study the composition of the dry protein component.

Oxygen cocktails are in great demand today, and many manufacturers offer their own versions of dry protein mixtures. And some cannot be called dietary at all.

Ideally, the powder should be based on animal (chicken) or vegetable protein. It is allowed to add pectin, various plant ingredients, and vitamin supplements. But if the composition contains flavoring additives, aromas and sweeteners (especially sugar), the benefits of the dessert will be questionable, and its calorie content will increase.

  • Choose a liquid foundation with the lowest calorie content.

The most dietary version of the oxygen cocktail is prepared using water or herbal decoction. But not everyone may like the taste of the finished product.

If you want to diversify the taste of your dessert, try making it with compote. It can be brewed from your favorite berries and fruits with minimal added sugar. Such a dessert will definitely not harm your figure and will be tasty and rich.

To reduce the calories in a milk-based oxygen shake, try diluting it with water. If the taste has become less intense, you can add a drop of vanilla extract - this will not add calories to the dessert, but will make its aroma amazing.

How to conduct preventive inhalation sessions with concentrated oxygen?

Is an oxygen cocktail during pregnancy beneficial or harmful?

Fetal hypoxia (lack of oxygen) is a very common phenomenon that occurs during pregnancy and childbirth, the consequences of which can be the most tragic: from retarded fetal development to its death.

The reasons for the development of hypoxia are associated, on the one hand, with a general increase in blood volume and a lack of hemoglobin in it (iron anemia) and with a deterioration in the absorption of oxygen by tissues in general. This can be caused by poor nutrition, polluted air and water, stress, and other social and environmental factors.

A preventive increase in the concentration of oxygen in the blood plasma, in many cases, can prevent the development of fetal hypoxia, improve the nutrition of the fetus and the metabolism of the mother herself.

Before starting therapy, be sure to consult your doctor! Following your doctor's recommendations for preventive oxygen therapy may be beneficial. While self-prescription of therapy and non-compliance with dosages can be harmful.
