The definition of food
is food is anything that your body takes in to maintain life and growth. So strictly speaking oxygen is food. It’s the fuel that burns the fat, source of
all energy, the ignition key that makes sure that everything that body requires
get done. As oxygen is important to
every cell in your body, without it, your cells can’t make energy and even a
drop in oxygen requirement is one of the reason your body gets into imbalances
state when the cells are deprived of oxygen, this deprivation if not corrected
in time, causes illness because your cells metabolism slows down. You switch from a highly efficient energy
making machine to being less efficient and thus generate a lot of lactic acid, which builds
up in your muscles and make you sore.
Without oxygen, we perform less efficiently.
Our body process
requires three things to start with, food, water and oxygen. While we might enjoy the food when hungry and
water when thirsty, it’s the oxygen that actually provides the fuel that runs
your body. Oxygen, through a process
called oxidation, chemically changes food and water into energy. It’s this oxygen fire that contracts our
muscles, repairs our cells, feeds our brain and even calms our nerves. So you can see that breathing in oxygen to a
required level is the first key to your body’s health and is one of our body’s
chief cleansing tool.
As long as we breathe in
oxygen properly and get plenty of oxygen, there is sufficient energy and the
waste matter is easily eliminated. The
problem comes when we don’t take in enough oxygen. You see, the body can store up food and water
but it can’t store oxygen. Every minute
that we live, we must continually provide our cells with stream of fresh and
pure oxygen.
