Bohr Effect: Healthy vs. Sick People and Oxygen Transport

  • 12 years ago
In this video, Dr Artour Rakhimov (NormalBreathing.com) discusses the Bohr effect or why and how oxygen is released in tissues of the human body. The effect requires high CO2 levels in capillaries. People with heavy breathing and low arterial CO2 suffer from the suppressed Bohr effect that reduces oxygen delivery to cells and organs.

The video is for health professionals and people with chronic diseases that are accompanied by tissue hypoxia or low body oxygenation. Oxygen is the key factor for health, and original yoga helps students to increase body O2 levels.
