The Oxygen Benefits & Facts

_____________________________________________________________________________________

Oxygen is a gaseous element with the symbol O. It is a colorless, tasteless gas. It is the most abundant element on earth, making up about half of the surface material. It makes up approximately 90% of water, two-thirds of the human body and about 20% of air by volume. Normal atmospheric oxygen is made up of two molecules of oxygen (O2). The most common reaction of oxygen which occurs when it unites with other substances is called oxidation.

So, what is oxidation? We know that no life can exist without oxidation. Oxidation is a chemical reaction. It is the process in the body which converts sugar into energy and helps rid the body of wastes. The body uses oxidation as its first line of defense against pathogens.

In recent years, ecologists, environmentalists, health advocates and the media constantly bring to our attention some phase of the deteriorated status of oxygen in our world. Oxygen is the source of life and energy to all cells. Oxygen starvation or deficiency is probably the greatest cause of degenerative disease. Medical scientists have been voicing this fact for decades.

The use of oxygen therapy in the late 1920's and early 1930's was largely ignored. Drugs became the way to treat the sick. Some drugs may relieve some suffering long enough for the body to heal itself, but ALL drugs have side effects.

Oxygen treatment in the right concentration and amount has no negative side effects. It actually enhances the healing process. It improves and restores the immune system and may be the most significant single factor in the prevention of illness. Oxygen is necessary for every cell, every tissue, every function, both chemical and physical, of the body. The bloodstream transports oxygen throughout the body to all cells.

Oxygen helps to promote the growth of aerobic bacteria and diminishes the growth of anaerobic bacteria. Aerobic bacteria are the friendly, helpful ones in the body, water, soil, and air. Aerobic bacteria are the normal flora of the body. They thrive on oxygen and promotes good health and well-being. They cannot live without oxygen. However, anaerobic bacteria promotes infection and diseases. They live and thrive when there is a lack of oxygen.

Another helpful benefit of oxygen is that it is a powerful antioxidant. In our bodies, there are unstable oxygen called free radicals. They are designed to get rid of toxins in our bodies, but too much free radicals can cause cancer and disease. Free radicals essentially have one less electron than normal oxygen atoms and as such, they neutralize toxins by stealing electrons from the toxins. Thus, with one less electron, the toxins are neutralized. However, the problem with free radicals is that it steals electrons from any type of cell, whether they are good or bad. The end result is that free radicals sometimes damage and ravage healthy parts of our bodies.

The solution to this problem of abundant free radicals is antioxidants and one of the best antioxidants is oxygen in AVANI water. When we drink AVANI water, the oxygen becomes an antioxidant and helps to neutralize free radicals. The conclusion is that the neutralization of free radicals ultimately promotes a healthy, disease and cancer free lifestyle.
