A biohack for mimicking being at a higher altitude in order to boost CO2 is to breathe into a paper lunch bag for a minute or two. The bag should not be too small or too large (an ideal size is 6 inches by 15 inches, or 15 centimeters by 38 centimeters). Breathe into the bag with your mouth and nose covered until you feel better. With each exhale, you expel carbon dioxide. By rebreathing the carbon dioxide inside the paper bag, you effectively raise your carbon dioxide level. According to Peat, breathing into a paper bag a few times a day has been shown to bring blood pressure down by as much as 30 points, and stabilize it there after a few days of repetition.

The Biology of Carbon Dioxide Analysis by  Dr. Joseph Mercola       November 18, 2023 Previous   Next   We Are Eating Far Too Much Plastic Why Isn't There a Safe and Effective Treatment for Neck or Back Pain? STORY AT-A-GLANCE Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a driver of energy production, as it improves the delivery of oxygen into your cells. CO2 also helps protect against the harmful effects of lipid peroxidation CO2 and lactate have opposing effects. Lactate is the byproduct of metabolizing glucose without oxygen in the cytoplasm. So, where lactate causes problems, CO2 has beneficial effects Elevated lactate production is a common theme in diabetes, Alzheimer’s, heart failure, shock and general aging. It promotes inflammation and degrades mitochondrial function. Conversely, low CO2 concentrations have been linked to epileptic seizures, muscle spasms, inflammation, hypothyroidism, stroke and clotting disorders All these issues, whether caused by elevated lactate o...

Book review of Another Look at John Henry Cardinal Newman by Richard Sartino, e-book, 36 pp. in a pdf file

https://www.traditioninaction.org/bkreviews/A_028br_Newman.htm The Liberal Cardinal Newman Americans Don’t Know Margaret C. Galitzin Book review of  Another Look at John Henry Cardinal Newman by Richard Sartino,  e-book , 36 pp. in a pdf file Like many American conservatives, growing up I heard the words of Card. John Henry Newman often in sermons and catechism classes. A prayer card with his well-known Marian prayer was in my mother’s prayer-book. There was a Newman Center for Catholics at the nearby State University. I assumed that the converted Anglican minister who caused a stir at Oxford was orthodox and praiseworthy. It only has been in the last 10 years that I began to realize that there is a difference between the myth about Card. Newman and the reality. The American myth, nurtured on anthologies of sermons, prayers and sayings of Newman, presents a pious, devotional and pastoral priest and teacher. The reality is different. Newman was a complex, controversial man, uni...

St Vincent of Lérins and John Henry Newman—and the Immaculate Conception too!

Posted on   26 August 2014   by   Fr Aidan Kimel Doctrine develops—that much is patent. All one needs to do is to read a volume or two of Jaroslav Pelikan’s  The Christian Tradition  to resolve any doubts. The only question is whether a given development faithfully expresses, elucidates, and unfolds the apostolic deposit of divine revelation. St Vincent of Lérins firmly rejected the possibility of new revelations. God has spoken once and for all in Jesus Christ. Thus to the question “What is the deposit?” he replies: “It is that which you believed, not that which you invented” ( Comm.  22.53). But he just as strongly affirms the reality of theological growth. To the question “Shall there then be no progress in Christ’s Church?” he answers: “Certainly there is...
