<p>If you know nothing about physiology, don&#8217;t worry. Even though it took the scientists many years to figure our what you are going to read below, we&#8217;ll put it in simpler terms. If you are trained in anything medical related, it will be very difficult to believe this. After learning about all the things that go wrong, it rarely occurs to the educated person that things don&#8217;t go wrong per themselves.</p>
<p><strong>So why on earth would there be any benefit to the above mentioned diseases?</strong></p>
<p>Instead of dealing with them individually, let&#8217;s deal with them together. What all these diseases have in common is simply that the end result is that the blood flowing through the body decreases.</p>
<p><strong>But why would it be beneficial for the blood to flow less?</strong></p>
<p>Did you ever wonder why it is that during exercise, you feel your heart beating faster? That is because the blood needs to flow more to keep up with the demands of your cells.</p>
<p><strong>But what would happen if your blood flowed that fast while you are resting?</strong></p>
<p>In short, you would be dead pretty quickly. It is not true that the more blood flowing the better. It is true that there is an ideal amount of blood flowing based on how your cells are working.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s relate blood flow to how fast you breathe. First of all, breathing and blood flow are related. If you hold your breath, blood will rush to your head. That is because increased circulation has a similar effect as decreased breathing rate. The less oxygen moved through the lungs, the more that needs to be moved by the blood. The inverse is also true. If you start breathing as fast as you can, your circulation will slow down for the same reason. Eventually you will get light headed due to lack of blood, and if you keep breathing fast (assuming you don&#8217;t have an asthma attack first), you will pass out. Once you are on the ground, gravity will get some blood to the head.</p>
<p>Here is an illustration of how this class of so-called diseases works. The pattern of stress gets the engines pumping. Your metabolism goes into anaerobic/sugar metabolism mode for quick energy. You start breathing faster and your circulation increases in anticipation of physical exertion. This discrepency between perceived and actual danger is a result of an inaccurate perception of our environment. Your cells go on your perception, since that is all they can go on. The combination of faster breathing/sugar content/faster circulation without the anticipated activity to balance the chemistry, the body&#8217;s chemistry gets messed up. Low carbon dioxide is the classic result, even though this is very difficult to test for directly.</p>
<p><strong>So what does your body do?</strong></p>
<p>Besides finding ways to slow the breathing (mucous/asthma/apnea/bronchitic/emphesema..), it finds ways to slow the circulation by placque, scarring, and holes in the heart. The disease of choice is based on age (fetus/child/adult), and genes. It&#8217;s that simple.</p>
<p>We mentioned migraines since they are a good illustration. One mechanism to slow the circulation is to narrow blood vessels (initial event in migraines) . However, when the stress which keeps the blood vessels narrowed stops, the blood vessels relax and cause a sort of wave of blood that irritates the blood vessels themselves. If the conditions necessitating slower circulation persists, the body will find more permanent ways to keep the blood vessels more narrow like plaque(atherosclerosis)/decreased elasticity(arteriosclerosis).</p>
<p>Instead of dealing with these thing one by one, it is much more effective addressing the pattern that necessitates these compensation mechanisms. Notice that all these patterns include an inaccurate perception of our environment. The stress reaction is not bad. It&#8217;s just bad when it is not needed.</p>
<p>Training with the <a href="http://www.lifefacilities.com/medical-home-health/respiratory/breathing-device.html">Frolov&#8217;s Respiration Device</a> reverses this entire pattern. You are essentially creating a need for better circulation, and your body will find a way to give it to you.The pattern is reversed in several ways. First, the precise amount of resistance isolates the diaphragmatic breathing muscles, which facilitate oxygen metabolism. That alone will help break the cycle, but the Frolov&#8217;s Respiration Training Device attacks it on more levels. The water acts as filter, making the air you breathe slightly low in oxygen and high in carbon dioxide. This also facilitates oxygen metabolism by what is called the Bohr effect. Third, doing the device forces your mind to relax better than anything I&#8217;ve tried before.</p>
<p><strong><em>It&#8217;s not that you are being fixed by some man-made technology. It&#8217;s more that you are using technology to allow your natural physiology perform the way it is supposed to.</em></strong></p>

<p>In some western countries, an average body weight of every third person exceeds the maximum permissible level. In the USA about 54 million people are overweight. Where does the overweight come from? A very small percentage of overweight people really have serious diseases and need complex treatment of their primary diseases (such as diabetes, thyroid gland disorder and some other diseases of endocrine glands). In the majority of cases the reason of overweight is simple: the number of calories taken with the food exceeds the number of calories consumed by the body. In other words, the body gets more than it spends. This excess is gradually stored as fat in hypoderm.</p>
<p>Why is overweight dangerous? Apart from the purely aesthetic problems, there is a great danger to health. Thus, arterial hypertension (high pressure), which is often the reason for heart attacks and blood-strokes, occurs in the overweight people twice as often as in people with normal weight. For people who weight 10-20% above their normal weight the risk of type II diabetes is 44% as higher as for people with normal weight. Overweight people often suffer from short wind and palpitation, even after minimal physical effort. Overweight can also lead to psycho-emotional disorders: sleep disorders, irritability, and quick fatigue.</p>
<p>A loss of weight by 5-10% will significantly decrease the risk of more serious diseases.</p>
<p>Respiratory exercises with the training Device will help you!</p>
<p>Phrenic breathing massages organs of abdominal cavity, intensifies excretive functions, and enhances the cleaning effect on your body from the first days of respiratory training. You can considerably strengthen your abdominal muscles, tuck your stomach in, and reduce your waistline.</p>
<p>After 3-5 weeks of training the action of the hypoxic-hypercapnic factor becomes evident.. Controlled reduction of the amount of oxygen significantly enhances your adaptation abilities and body resistance; cellular metabolism switches to a more economical and efficient use of oxygen to produce the necessary energy, which leads to the improvement of the entire body metabolism. Carbon dioxide is absolutely necessary for all the biochemical processes in the body; it regulates vitamins and ferment activity. Therefore, gradual increase in carbon dioxide level helps your body lose extra weight.<br />

<p>Chronic fatigue, irritability, insomnia and depression: who is fully aware of these symptoms? “The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome&#8221; was recently characterized as an individual pathology. Development of this disease is due to the peculiarities of modern life in big cities, the way of life in economically developed countries and adverse health and environmental conditions and psycho-emotional stress that accompanies lives today.</p>
<p>The main symptoms of chronic fatigue syndrome are prolonged feeling of energy loss, no clear reasons (feeling remains even after the rest), general weakness, irritability and defective memory and attention. Chronic fatigue syndrome is often followed by muscle discomfort, fever, joint pain, headache and dizziness, anxiety and sleep disorders.</p>
<p>Respiratory exercises help solve all these problems in the best possible way!</p>
<p>Continued exhalation in normal excitement of learning processes and suppression of the nervous system, improve the quality of your sleep and relieve irritation and exhaustion.</p>
<p>Positive expiratory pressure occurs when the breathing resistance of water is included and has bronchodilatory action. This significantly improves pulmonary ventilation, increases the amount of oxygen in the blood, organs and tissues, including brain and activates the functions of the brain.</p>
<p>Diaphragmatic (abdominal) type of breathing helps to regulate pressure intrathoracic ensures optimal conditions for the heart system and improves the blood to all organs and structures of the brain in particular. These two factors increase the functional activity of central nervous system, reduce headache and dizziness as well as improve memory and attention.</p>
<p><strong>Forget fatigue and headaches! Breathe with <a href="http://www.lifefacilities.com/medical-home-health/respiratory/breathing-device.html">Respiratory Training Device</a> and sleep like children!</strong></p>

<p>It might be hard to imagine these diseases having some benefit at first, but read on. At the moment you understand why nature allows these things to happen, you will immediately see why the standard treatment is so harmful, and why the approach offered here is so effective.</p>
<p>COPD refers to a category of diseases including asthma, bronchitis and emphysema. In each of these cases, the affected person ends up with less air exchange between the body and the air. The lungs, which are where exchange takes place, develops a barrier. In the case of asthma, the muscles around the bronchioles contract, stopping air from flowing. In the case of bronchitis, the mucous acts as a barrier. Emphysema also prevents air exchange becasue the normal lung tissue is partly replaced by scar.</p>
<p>Sleep apnea is almost the same as COPD in the sense that the result is the same. It is a direct way to slow the loss of carbon dioxide. Also, when mucous is constantly produced, some people develop chronic cough.</p>
<p><strong>But Why Are These Conditions Necessary?</strong></p>
<p>Victims of each of these diseases hyperventillate, or breathe extra fast. That is the surprising truth discovered by Russian physician Professor Konstantin Buteyko, who studied breathing physiology for 30 years. But why would you, a person seeking help for your COPD, hyperventillate? The answer to that question determines what you do to reverse your COPD.</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Why would I hyperventilate in the first place?</strong>&#8221;</p>
<p>Hyperventilation begins when we anticipate trouble or worry about something. It is the body&#8217;s way of preparing for phyical exertion. But when we hyperventillate without the exertion, our carbon dioxide reserves become gradually depleted. Not a big deal you think? Read on.</p>
<p>Carbon dioxide is used for virtually every chemical reaction in the body. It is used as a buffer in the blood to prevent sudden changes of blood chemistry. It is a building block for every tissue in our body. Nature strongly protects against loss of too much carbon dioxide.</p>
<p><strong>How Nature Protects Us From Hyperventillation<br />
</strong><br />
Nature preserves carbon dioxide in many ways, but the most direct methods are COPD and sleep apnea. Here are some facts: Low carbon dioxide causes spasm of the muscles around the broncioles. Low carbon dioxide causes mucous production. Low carbon dioxide causes scar formation. Low carbon dioxide causes you to stop breathing. Do any of these things sound related? All of these &#8216;diseases&#8217; help restore carbon dioxide levels</p>
<p>Traditional treatments are advertised like this: Mucous bad. Let&#8217;s prevent mucous produciton. Bronchial spasm bad, lets give a drug to prevent it. But what do you think your body is going to do about your low carbon dioxide now? It will have to find some other way to deal with it. That is precicely why these &#8216;treatments&#8217; are so ineffective and harmful. They stop your body from fixing itself, and ignore the thing that is really wrong.</p>
<p>We actually have a way to fix the low carbon dioxide problem, which is primarily caused by habitual hyperventillation, which is caused primarily by habitual stress. It is called <a href="http://www.lifefacilities.com/medical-home-health/respiratory/breathing-device.html">Frolov&#8217;s respiratory training device</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Instead of expensive drugs that don&#8217;t work, we advise you to train your breathing properly.</strong></p>

<p>In the United States, the estimated 46 million people (this is 41.9% of the population) are smokers. This includes 25.1 million men (23.4% of the population) and 20.9 million women (18.5% of the population). These people are at higher risks of heart attack and stroke. The statistics is taken from the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) of 2004 made by the National Center for Health Statistics and NHLBI. Lungs cancer and breast cancer become more and more typical, which is considered to be a result of environmental pollution, such as car gases, factory gases and smoking.</p>
<p>In is no wonder. When you inhale the cigarette smoke, it goes through your mouth and throat into your lungs. The smoke contains over 4 thousand chemicals including highly toxic substances, and substances provoking cancer such as formaldehyde, benzyl, arsenic and others. When the smoke reaches lungs, it precipitates there as resins. Cigarette smoke directly interferes with the lungs functioning increasing the risk of cancer, pneumonia, emphysema, chronic bronchitis and other pulmonary diseases that obstruct breathing.</p>
<p>Luckily lots of changes are reversible. The <a href="http://lifefacilities.com/frolovs-respiration-training-device-free-book-free-shipping-p-29.html?osCsid=afd904487015d215881a11a83451247e" target="_blank">Frolov&#8217;s Training Device</a> can help you to give up this habit and rehabilitate your health!</p>
<p>From the very first days of training with the Device, you will feel revitalized and energized; you will see how intensively your lungs will be cleared from toxic substances, which have accumulated in the lungs for years. The cleaning process is activated by the increased inhale resistance, which leads to the increased negative pressure in the lungs and bronchi, enhancing goblet and ciliated cells functioning (the former produce secretion, the latter are able to move the secretion actively out of bronchi) and helping clean the lungs and bronchi from mucus and sputum. The increased exhale resistance leads to a higher positive pressure in the lungs, which produces a bronchodilatory effect. This effect significantly intensifies the pulmonary ventilation and increases the amount of oxygen available in the blood, organs and tissues, normalizing their functions. Barbotation creates active air micro-vibration in the closed space, producing a positive effect on the passage of the air through the bronchial tubes (micro massage). In a short time you forget about painful morning cough and bubbling wheezes in the lungs and eventually you forget about the short breath.</p>
<p>Prolonged respiratory training allows the adaptive qualities of the body to improve significantly and enhances immune resistance due to the hypoxic-hypercapnic factor. Cellular metabolism switches to highly effective and more economical use of oxygen to get the necessary energy. That activates the bodily reserves, which naturally intensify the processes of &#8216;self-recovery&#8217;. Blood vessels become stronger and the circulation of blood improves; it significantly decreases the risk of cardiovascular diseases. The immune system and metabolism become more active, which leads to the extraction of toxic substances from cells, reducing the body addition to nicotine.</p>
<p><strong>Exchange a cigarette for <a href="http://www.lifefacilities.com/medical-home-health/respiratory/breathing-device.html">Frolov&#8217;s training Device</a> and feel the difference having a relief from the smoking addiction!</strong></p>

<p>The aim of the investigation at hand was to determine changes in some functional parameters of cardiopulmonary system, occurring as a result of a combined effect of an additional resistance to breathing, hypoxia and hypercapnia in the course of breathing through the <a href="http://www.lifefacilities.com/medical-home-health/respiratory/breathing-device.html">Frolov&#8217;s respiration training device.</a></p>
<p>Practically healthy women aged 38-39 were subjected to the examination. Studies of the external respiration function were performed with the &#8220;Masterlab&#8221; aparatus of the &#8220;ERICH JAGER&#8221; Company, that of gas exchange with the gas analyser of the named company. Parameters that were to be determined: respiration pattern &#8211; inhalation and exhalation time, respiratory act (cycle) duration. Tests under physical load were performed to determine gas exchange parameters, heartbeat frequency, general and biochemical blood analysis. Hemodynamics condition was assessed through tachooscillogram, recorded at the &#8220;HELLIGE&#8221; Company&#8217;s apparatus. Combined effect of resistance to breathing, hypoxia and hypercapnia was simulated with the Frolov&#8217;s inhalator. An additional resistance to breathing was created with the water obstruction of 35 mm at the inhalation phase and 17 mm at the exhalation phase. The gas analysis and oxygen blood saturation determination was performed before the training session, in the course of it and within an hour after it. Training sessions 20 min in duration were performed daily through three months.</p>
<p><strong>Results.</strong></p>
<p>As the practice of the respiratory exercises gained, the exhalation time gradually increased and nearing the end of the training course it showed 35 sec.</p>
<p>The hypoxic and hypercapnic effect grew in proportion with the exhalation time increase: Oxygen percentage in 1 liter volume was sinking down to 10%, while carbon dioxide percentage was rising up to 7% at the moment when the exhalation phase amounted to 30 sec.</p>
<p>The gain was a considerable decrease in respiration frequency from 16-18 to 6-8 per minute. This frequency diminished chiefly through the exhalation phase lengthening: the inhalation increased by 31.5%, the exhalation did so by 102.6%. Systole frequency lowered by 18%. The oxygen consumption restoration time after a uniform physical load decreased by 66.6%. The gas exchange parameters witnessed a considerable change (see Table).</p>
<p>The oxygen (FO2) utilization rate and ��2 content in the alveolar air evidenced increase at rest, as well as under a physical load. Thus, in this case, the adaptation changes became apparent already at rest, getting more pronounced still under a physical load. Our studies testify to the alveolar ventilation optimization along with respiratory and blood circulation function minimization as a result of the respiratory training.</p>
