Understanding this is more important today than ever before, because of a general deficiency of oxygen intake. Simply put, the best way to optimize health is to be sure that we oxygenate every cell of our body. Hypoxia, or lack of oxygen in the tissues, is the fundamental cause for all degenerative disease. Unfortunately, the lack of oxygenated air is not the only way in which we have become oxygen deficient. Our diet of the foods we eat, stress and acidic overload all add to our growing oxygen deficiency.
Junk food is low in oxygen and high in toxic chemicals and preservatives.
Physical and emotional stress rob the body of much needed oxygen. And a chronic acidic system causes the body to draw down its precious reserve of oxygen. The oxygen content in a healthy human body is roughly three times that of the oxygen content in the air. Pathogens, cannot live in such an oxygen rich enviroment. They grow and form colonies, and excrete toxins that make you sick or sometimes give you a fever, or a sore throat, or a runny nose, or arthritis, or cancer, or AIDS, or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, or herpes, or candidia, or a cold, etc, etc.
