Breath and Health

1. Brain is known to consume 20% of the oxygen available in the body. If you are one of the 80% who are functioning at 30% of breathing capacity, your brain is not functioning fully either.

2. Proper Breathing serves as the pump for the lymphatic system, just as the Heart serves the circulatory system. Proper Breathing increases the rate of toxic elimination by as much as 15 times the normal pace.

3. As early as 1931 Dr. Otto Warburg won the Nobel Prize in his work of what causes cells to become cancerous. “Cancer has only one prime cause. The prime cause of cancer is the replacement of normal oxygen respiration of body cells by an anaerobic (lacking in oxygen) cell respiration.”

4. In fact, a University of Phoenix study revealed that breathing, when it goes below 10 cycles-a-minute, activates parasympathetic nervous system, which helps relax the body & the mind, heightens the awareness, concentration and optimises the functioning of all the internal organs including the nerve reflexes.
