Food supplement is China people's favorite way of keeping in good health. Facing the chronic hypoxia crisis of modern people, food supplement has also come in handy. Doctors also call for fresh ingredients with high oxygen content as much as possible. You can drink more water when you are only seven minutes full. A simple diet philosophy can make your body more oxygen. Wang Youqiang, chairman of the Taipei Gene Health Association and secretary general of the Chinese Medicine Association, said that Chinese medicine believes that "the lung governs qi, the heart governs blood, and qi is handsome as blood", and the primary task of oxygen supplementation is to strengthen lung function.
Strengthening lung and supplementing oxygen fruits and vegetables
A variety of oxygen-supplementing fruits and vegetables beneficial to the lungs for public reference. Wang Yuqiang stressed that in order to achieve the effect of oxygen supplement, we should first emphasize the freshness of ingredients. Fresh fruits will turn yellow or even dark brown every once in a while after picking, indicating that the oxygen in the original life of fruits has been gradually exhausted, and the oxygen content of fresh fruits and vegetables must be relatively high.
◎ Carambola: Carambola is known as the "star of fruit" and is the primary fruit and vegetable for lung. Carambola is sweet, sour and cold, and enters the lung, stomach and bladder meridian. Traditional Chinese medicine is used to treat wind-heat cough, polydipsia, aphtha, gingival swelling and pain, and toothache. It is widely said that curing cough with pickled carambola juice does have this effect from the perspective of modern science. Carambola is rich in vitamin C and mineral potassium, which can reduce the generation of ammonium nitrite and reduce the risk of cancer. Its components also have a good effect on reducing triglycerides and cholesterol.
◎ Strawberry: According to ancient records, strawberry "tonifies the spleen and stomach, nourishes blood and benefits qi", and its vitamin C content is more than 10 times higher than that of apples and grapes. Vitamin c can eliminate the relaxation and tension between cells, make the structure of brain cells firm, and have an important impact on the development of brain and intelligence.
◎ Loquat: Fruit has the effects of moistening lung, relieving cough and quenching thirst. Loquat leaf is also a kind of traditional Chinese medicine. Sun-dried medicine has the effects of clearing away lung heat, reducing qi and resolving phlegm.
◎ Pear: From the point of view of Chinese medicine, it can moisten the lung, resolve phlegm and relieve cough, while in modern medicine, it has the functions of lowering blood pressure, clearing heat and calming down. Chopping pears, adding appropriate amount of ice cubes and stewing in water can treat acute bronchitis, cold and cough.
◎ Garlic: Garlic treatment has a long history. Garlic is "pungent and warm, entering the spleen, stomach and lungs". Garlic has bactericidal effect. The sulfide it contains is a good antioxidant, which can reduce the production of free radicals and reduce physical diseases. Garlic can reduce unsaturated cholesterol, increase saturated cholesterol and promote the health of heart and blood vessels. Also known as "vascular scavenger".
◎ Others: The nutrients contained in kiwi fruit, persimmon, walnut, cabbage, cauliflower and carrot also have the function of strengthening lung function.
Doctors recommend aerobic Chinese medicine prescriptions.
Wang Youqiang, who specializes in traditional Chinese and western medicine, said that oxygen supplement in western medicine and qi supplement in traditional Chinese medicine have the same effect. Ginseng, Astragalus membranaceus and other traditional Chinese medicine herbs can be used as oxygen-supplementing components.

Dr. Wang Zuwu, chairman of Taipei Aerobic Health Association, said that in addition to ginseng, astragalus and other common herbs for invigorating qi, the most famous rhodiola in Tibet is also recognized as an oxygen-supplementing herb, and there are also many studies on rhodiola and fortified oxygen. Studies have shown that Rhodiola can effectively improve human oxygen supply, not only enhance vital capacity and improve cardiopulmonary function, but also help to dilate peripheral blood vessels and improve blood circulation.
High dissolved oxygen solution with high oxygen concentration.
Besides oxygen inhalation, you can also drink oral liquid with high dissolved oxygen. Wang Youqiang pointed out that the oxygen content of tap water is 6~ 10ppm, and the oxygen concentration of highly dissolved oxygen oral liquid can be as high as 15 ppm, which is 20,000 times that of tap water. 1969 German professor A.P.K. Daman developed the first water containing 60mg of oxygen per liter. 1988 proposed oral therapy, which was successfully applied in clinic. This German professor wraps oxygen in water molecules. When it comes into contact with granular gland cells, the released oxygen can directly enter the cells and be fully utilized. He pointed out that oral highly dissolved oxygen water enters the human circulatory system through diffusion and penetration, through cells in the gastrointestinal tract and through the portal vein. Oxygen absorbed through the mouth has the same function as oxygen absorbed through the lungs.
Wang Zuwu reminded that blood viscosity will slow down blood circulation and affect the oxygen supply speed of body tissues. However, as long as you drink more water, this problem can be improved. People should never underestimate the benefits of drinking more water.
Eat seven points full and increase oxygen content.
In addition to selecting fresh ingredients with lung and blood tonifying functions or Chinese herbal medicines with qi invigorating effects for conditioning, it is also important to establish healthy eating habits. Wang Zuwu reminded that people with acidic constitution are prone to hypoxia, because acidic constitution will reduce the dissolved oxygen rate of the body, that is, inhaled oxygen is not easy to dissolve into the blood and then be used by tissues.
He emphasized that although there is a natural regulation system in the human body, it can regulate the problem that acidic constitution leads to the decline of dissolved oxygen rate, even if the long-term acidic constitution is balanced by the mechanism of the human body, its dissolved oxygen rate cannot reach the same level as that of healthy weakly alkaline constitution, and the harm caused to the body for a long time cannot be ignored. He suggested that people should eat more vegetables and fruits and less meat on weekdays to keep their bodies in a healthy and slightly alkaline state.
Wang Youqiang reminded that food needs oxygen for digestion and absorption after entering the body. When oxygen is combined with food, it will also produce oxygen free radicals. If you eat too much, oxygen free radicals that are bad for your health will accumulate in your body, which will do harm to your health in the long run. From a health point of view, I suggest eating seven or eight minutes full when eating.
When the human body absorbs oxygen, it also spits out carbon dioxide. When metabolic problems occur, carbon dioxide cannot be eliminated smoothly, causing edema, and obesity will make carbon dioxide easy to accumulate in the body.
Wang stressed that people with immune dysfunction or allergies, people who often feel tired or chronic, athletes, or people who suffer from insomnia, pregnant women, infants and frail middle-aged and elderly people whose brains are often under pressure will have higher demand for oxygen supplementation than ordinary people. If you can increase the oxygen content in your body through your daily diet, you can improve the discomfort caused by hypoxia.
