Am J Psychiatry. 1995 May;152(5):666-72. Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy investigation of hyperventilation in subjects with panic disorder and comparison subjects. Dager SR, Strauss WL, Marro KI, Richards TL, Metzger GD, Artru AA. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to investigate differential effects of hyperventilation on brain lactate in patients with panic disorder and comparison [...]
Hyperventilation (definition) is breathing more than the medical norm. http://www.normalbreathing.com/i-hyperventilation.php Hyperventilation can be defined as breathing more than 10 liters of air per minute at rest for a 70-lg person. Hyperventilation is very common these days. The large majority of people believe that it is worthwhile as well as healthy to breathe in more deeply [...]
J Strength Cond Res. 2004 May;18(2):306-10. Combined creatine and sodium bicarbonate supplementation enhances interval swimming. Mero AA, Keskinen KL, Malvela MT, Sallinen JM. This study examined the effect of simultaneous supplementation of creatine and sodium bicarbonate on consecutive maximal swims. Sixteen competitive male and female swimmers completed, in a randomized order, 2 different treatments (placebo [...]
Energy production and resting body temperature regulate many functions. Ample energy is required to relax fully and sleep deeply. The key to quality sleep is high energy metabolism and maintaining optimal body temperature (98-98.6F). Children sleep well because of their ability to maintain a high body temperature and produce energy and carbon dioxide. The combination [...]
Also see: Master List – Ray Peat, PhD Interviews In this video, Dr. Ray Peat discusses his alternative views on carbon dioxide as it relates to Biology. In his view, the health of the organism is governed by the stability and coherent functioning of its cells and tissues. Carbon dioxide, through a variety of biochemical [...]
EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSIOLOGY AND OCCUPATIONAL PHYSIOLOGY Volume 57, Number 1, 45-48, DOI: 10.1007/BF00691236 Induced metabolic alkalosis and its effects on 400-m racing time Jo Goldfinch, Lars Mc Naughton and Peter Davies Six trained male athletes who competed regularly in 400 metre races, were studied under control, alkalotic (NaHCO3) and placebo (CaCO3) conditions to [...]
The low carbon dioxide production of hypothyroidism (e.g., Lee and Levine, 1999), and the respiratory alkalosis of estrogen excess, are often overlooked. An adequate supply of calcium, and sometimes supplementation of salt and baking soda, can increase the tissue content of CO2. -Ray Peat, PhD Can J Anaesth. 1999 Feb;46(2):185-9. Acute respiratory alkalosis associated with [...]
