💫 Overview
Respiration and oxygenation are essential for supplying oxygen to the body and removing carbon dioxide, enabling cells to produce energy and maintain life. This process involves the lungs, airways, blood, and circulatory system, working together to sustain cellular metabolism, support brain function, and regulate pH balance.
When respiration is efficient, we feel energetic, clear-headed, and able to perform physical and mental tasks. Dysfunction can lead to fatigue, shortness of breath, dizziness, or impaired organ function.
