Ep. 58: Altitude, Panic Attacks, Swelling, Heart Failure,&More (Oxygenation, Swelling, and pH Balance Part 3) - a podcast by Jay Feldman Wellness

from 2021-05-19T10:04:24

:: ::

In this episode we discuss:

How insulin resistance and diabetes are symptoms of excess glycolysis and lactate production, and how metformin makes these conditions worse

How excess lactate production and a lack of CO2 causes altitude sickness and anxiety and panic attacks

The benefits of altitude and the surprising parallel effects of stormy weather

The problem with 100% oxygen ventilation in critical illnesses like severe COVID-19 infections and sepsis

How glycolytic metabolism and the swelling that results contributes to high blood pressure and heart failure

41:09 – adaptation to altitude, the lactate paradox, and stormy weather

43:59 – the problem with 100% oxygen ventilation in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), including sepsis and respiratory illness like COVID-19, and the protective effects of CO2 in these situations

54:49 – how a lack of CO2 and excess lactate causes pulmonary edema, impaired ventilation, impaired heart contractility, reduced circulation, high blood pressure, mineral imbalances, and edema
