Now those fundamentally do not understand our minute ventilation, how we breathe.

Okay.

So think about...

How a 90-year-old grandma with terminal lung cancer having a panic attack might be breathing.

And then think about how a 300-pound bodybuilder practicing deep breathing might breathe.

Right.

And you expect a nasal cannula and a flow to deliver the same thing.

It could be off by multiple exponents in what they're getting, right?

Because we're not breathing at a constant rate.

Right.

We maybe breathe 15, 20 seconds out of a minute.

Say we were doing deep breathing.

Right.

We might get a liter, two liters, three liters even in a couple seconds of time.

Now, we can do the math.

Say there's a liter a minute coming at that constant volume divided by 60.

That means the rest of what we're breathing is diluted in the air around us.

All of a sudden, we can be well below the

the minimum therapeutic threshold where hydrogen gas needs to be in our system to cause a physiological effect, or we could be over.

Because what we know in the actual research is we do these precise dosings, both on animals and humans, and we know that in certain instances, 2% might work better than 4%.
