Stuffy Nose Has Only One Cause

Stuffy Nose Has Only One Cause

By:


Nasal congestion or stuffy nose does not respond well to modern medications and recent medical reviews suggest to find better drugs for this condition. However, there is a simple cause of the stuffy nose problem and this cause is literaly under the nose.

Nasal congestion is actually a respiratory condition or breathing problem. As a result, we need to look at difficulties relevant to breath in modern-day normal humans. Every person could note that contemporary average individuals have numerous respiratory challenges, which include shortness of breath during exercise, upper chest breathing, sighing, mouth breathing, poor breath holding abilities and others.

Recent medical research papers have uncovered that modern day ordinary men and women breathe heavily and fast in comparison with men and women living about a 100 years ago. The usual breath rate in modern-day normal men and women is approximately 12 Liters of air per min as opposed to 6 (the scientific norm).

Consider that millions of present individuals possess an ignorant superstition that heavy basal breathing pattern (or chronic hyperventilation) enhances cell oxygen level. People additionally have faith that CO2 is a toxic chemical.

Hundreds of clinical research articles have shown that hyperventilation leads to DIMINISHED tissue oxygen level. Furthermore, carbon dioxide executes a lot of other central processes, including: blood pH regulation, blood sugar control, healthy immunity, oxygen delivery to all vital organs, heart rate regulation, control of respiration, bronchodilation (dilation of airways), repair of alveoli in the lungs, stability of the nervous cells, blood pressure maintenance, release of oxygen in capillaries (the Bohr effect), synthesis of proteins and lipids, weight control, sleep regulation, relaxation of muscular cells and numerous other essential biochemical functions.

Chronic hyperventilation causes stuffy nose

Among the primary end results of chronic hyperventilation linked to stuffy nose are:
- increased upper respiratory infections due to the suppressed immune system
- reduced perfusion and oxygenation of cilia cells (hence, their lessened capacity to clear unwanted debris out)
- increased production of mucus.

Check your respiratory pattern using a DIY test

Immediately following your USUAL expiration, pinch your nostrils and measure time of your anxiety-free breath hold. Be aware that your respiration pattern after the test needs to be exactly like your breathing pattern just before the breath hold: no strain in the least following the test.

This test measures 2 factors at once. At first place, the result indicates how heavy the individual breath pattern is. Also, it evaluates content of O2 in the body cells. Provided that the involuntary respiration pattern is actually normal, they will be able to maintain the breath hold for at least 40 s.

As clinical practice has established, people with stuffy nose have less than twenty s for this DIY body oxygen test. Therefore, that person breathes at least twice the therapeutic norm.

Lasting answer to stuffy nose

When your basal breath pattern is so gentle that your body oxygen content is above 20 s, you will not suffer from acute problems with stuffy nose. Thus, you need to reduce your intense breathing in order to achieve this goal.

In addition, distinguished Soviet physilogist Dr. KP Buteyko created an Emergency Procedure: a respiration exercise to relieve the nasal congestion. It is based on breathing less and buildup of carbon dioxide in the lungs and blood and the link is given in the resource box below.

Beneficial life-style modifications

Respiratory normalization activity demands relaxation of body muscles and 24/7 restrain of respiration including:
- constant nasal breathing (hence, learn how to tape your mouth with a surgical tape, if your mouth is usually dry in the morning
- avoidance of sleeping on one's back (we breathe almost 2 times more air, if we sleep on our backs at night)
- physical activity for (no less than 2 hours every day with only nasal breathing, in and out, otherwise exercise is almost ineffective for most, especially sick patients)
- elimination of focal infections (cavities in teeth, dead tonsils, athletes feet, etc.)
- suitable posture for abdominal breathing 24/7
- learning abdominal breathing 24/7
- eating only when hungry
- and many other lifestyle-related details for greater body oxygen level.
