By Dr Janet Winter, Posted on July 28, 2011 The consequences of chronic hyperventilation or over breathing can be many; tired muscles, headaches, anxiety, poor sleep, fatigue, allergies, cold hands, breathlessness, stuffed nose, IBS…. The list goes on. One definition of hyperventilation is breathing more than your body requires, so if you are sitting, but [...]

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the key player in O2 transport due to 1) vasodilation and 2) the the Bohr effect (or the Bohr law). The Bohr effect explains oxygen release in capillaries or why red blood cells unload oxygen in tissues. The Bohr effect was first described in 1904 by the Danish physiologist Christian Bohr [...]
