As you age, you lose some of your capacity to utilize oxygen/O2 - this loss is estimated at 1% per year from the age of 20.
Every breath you take converts to energy.
All human cells, especially your brain/nervous system cells called neurons, need energy to do their job. All cells use blood sugar (glucose) and oxygen to create Adenosine Tri-Phosphate (ATP), the energy source that fuels cell function.
If your cells need more energy, they use MORE OXYGEN.
That is why your breathing rate increases when you exercise. If your cells do not receive enough oxygen, they produce less energy. You derive oxygen/O2 from the air you breathe.
There is plenty of evidence that our air contains less oxygen now, especially in densely populated metropolitan areas. Air pollution levels are constantly increasing.
Living at higher elevations puts you at an automatic disadvantage - the higher the elevation, the less the oxygen content of the air your breathe. Most people don't breathe well. Many are shallow breathers. This seems to be more the case with our increasingly sedentary life styles and when we are chronically stressed.
The brain demands at least 20% of the body's oxygen supply, when it doesn't get this supply it can lead to issues such as sleep apnea, poor concentration, forgetfulness, mood swings, restlessness, depressive thoughts, low drive and premature aging.
