Abstract
Every time we breathe in oxygen to our lungs the
oxygen is picked up by the red blood cells that are in the tiny
blood vessels within our lungs. Each red blood cell can carry
four oxygen molecules which it takes from the lungs to the
heart via the blood vessels. As the heart beats it forces these
blood cells into the arteries and on a journey around the body
to where they’re needed. When they encounter an area with
high levels of carbon dioxide, which has been created by the
hard work or cellular metabolism of some particular cells, the
red blood cells DROP their oxygen molecules to ‘feed’ these
cells and picks up the carbon dioxide that they have
produced. They then carry the carbon dioxide back to the
lungs and we exhale to get rid of it. We then breathe in more
oxygen and the whole process starts again.
The beneficial effects of carbon dioxide on health were
first discovered in France in the 1930s when it was noted that
bathing in the pools of carbon dioxide rich water at the Royat
Spas helped to speed up wound healing.
