Breathing mistakes can destroy your body after 50 years old

Thanh Thanh |

Eat this not that page points out common breathing mistakes that destroy the body after the age of 50.

Breathe mainly through the mouth

Breathing through your nose produces nitric oxide (NO), an important molecule that helps kill bacteria, fight pathogens, and help transport oxygen throughout the body.

People who breathe primarily through their mouths often have difficulty absorbing oxygen, which can lead to fatigue and stress.

Overbreathing

Overbreathing often occurs due to shallow chest breathing or mouth breathing. This limits optimal gas exchange, puts stress on the body, and accelerates the aging process.

Uncontrolled stress

Chronic stress causes rapid, shallow breathing. Over time, this can keep your body in a constant state of tension, leading to fatigue and poor health.

Incorporate breathing exercises into your daily routine. Try inhaling for 4 seconds, holding for 2 seconds, and exhaling for 8 seconds. This activates your parasympathetic nervous system, which helps you relax.

Breathing incorrectly while exercising

Exercise is essential to maintaining fitness as we age. However, stopping exercise abruptly can leave you gasping for air, disrupting your breathing. This can strain your body, limiting its ability to recover.

Lower your temperature, heart rate, and relax your body slowly by walking after exercise or jogging. Focus on breathing deeply and evenly through your nose during the cool-down process to stabilize your heart rate and breathing.
