Breathing thin air could reverse brain damage, study finds
Breathing thin air could reverse brain damage, study finds But, we need to keep in mind that the damage studies is a DNA defect in the mitochondria. But, it makes you wonder. A new form of HBOT. Not Hyper Baric Oxygen Therapy but Hypo Baric Oxygen Therapy. Do not try this at home.

Hi Mark, I'm new to Neuro Talk but from reading many of the threads, you seem to be one of the more knowledgable people on PCS. Given that, what is your opinion on HBOT

HBOT is a hit and miss treatment. There are no consistent results. Plus, it takes 40 to 60 treatments to see if it helps. That can be a $4000 to $10,000 gamble. Dr Harch's clinic has been studying it. It is proven to increase capillary growth but it has not been shown that capillary growth improved brain healing.
If you are struggling with PCS, feel free to start a thread and tell us about your injury.

Definitely going to within the next few days, thanks for the response. Seems too impractical as a solution.

Dave Asprey talks about breathing in low oxygen air in his new book Head Strong. It is supposedly very helpful.
Also mentioned is the Wim Hof breathing method, which is supposed to saturate your body with oxygen and increase PH levels. Wim Hof exercises - Wim Hof, The Iceman - Innerfire I tried the WH breathing. It can be dangerous, so a person has to be smart where and when they do it. |

Unfortunately, Dave Asprey makes me doubt his ideas because some are simply wrong. His misuse of ketogenic concepts for profit leaves me doubtful.
He takes snippets of truth out of context and uses them to sell his ideas.
