How to Increase Blood Oxygen Level?

Blood oxygen levels, also known as oxygen saturation, your blood
oxygen level is a measure of how much oxygen your red blood
cells are carrying. Your body closely regulates your blood
oxygen levels. Maintaining a precise balance of oxygen-saturated
blood is vital to your health.
More than 20% of the oxygen you inhale goes to your brain. If
this vital organ doesn't get enough oxygen over time, your brain
cells start to die. Similarly, if your heart doesn't get enough
oxygen, you're at risk for heart disease.
What Should Your Blood Oxygen Level Be?
Normal blood oxygen levels vary depending on a person's health
history. For generally healthy people with no history of chronic
disease, the normal range is between 95 and 100 percent. Any
value below 90% is considered low. Low blood oxygen levels can
cause uncomfortable or painful symptoms that, if left untreated,
can lead to cyanosis.
However, for people with a history of respiratory diseases such
as COPD or asthma, oxygen saturation can vary between 88% and
95%. Blood oxygen levels below 95% should always be assessed by
a physician who can determine which range is considered normal.
The normal range will depend on the patient's health history.
Symptoms of Low Blood Oxygen Levels
If you have a low blood oxygen level, you may notice several
symptoms including:
Shortness of breath
Rapid breathing
Rapid heartbeat
Headache
Restlessness
Dizziness
Chest pain
Confusion
Euphoria
Visual disorders
Lack of coordination
How to Increase Blood Oxygen Level
Drink lots of water: Properly hydrated lungs disperse oxygen
into the blood more efficiently.
Breathe fresh air:Fresh air is good for your lungs and usually
contains higher levels of oxygen.
Get active: Exercise is the key to a healthy life. With aerobic
exercise, such as simple walking, the body makes better use of
oxygen while clearing waste products through the lymphatic
system.
Eat more iron-rich foods: Certain foods can help improve oxygen
levels in the blood. Red blood cells need iron, so when you get
more iron from your diet, they may function better (and carry
more oxygen through your blood).
Breathing Exercises: Practicing proper breathing and conscious
breathing techniques can strengthen your lung capacity and allow
more oxygen to reach your bloodstream.
By using the OPUMP breathing trainer, you can track and
continuously improve your lung capacity. It can remind you to
maintain the breathing rate, duration and rhythm required for
optimal training results.
