如何運載氧氣與OXIA

我們全部需要氧氣為生存。

我記得在晚年2000年， 「氧氣酒吧」在美國和日本出現了。 然而，趨向一會後失敗了。 一些相信那通過採取高級氧氣將幫助他們感覺刷新，并且安慰性的，而一些認為呼吸的純氧比飲用的酒精，實際上，將做害處對身體壞。 當這些點依然是無定論的時，并且氧氣酒吧從那以後關閉了，稱OXIA的另一個產品，一臺個人氧氣分配器，進入了市場從年2006年。

在得到之前激發以這個新的發明， OXIA，我們瞭解基本。 我們有三主要氣體在大氣，即氮氣(78%)，氧氣(21%)和二氧化碳(0.03%)。 當我們有更多二氧化碳在我們的肺，所謂的二氧化碳傳感器在我們的身體將寄發信號到腦子，包括窒息的感覺。 如此，被發明基於的基於溫哥華的OXIA在這種理論？

實際上，在他在亞洲之後，參觀了高汙染國家創建者出來了以這個想法。 他相信一個需要最終支付清潔空氣。 如此，當天來時，他開始了這事業希望得到時運。

現在，存放氧氣以便攜式的形式和賣它-簡單的想法？ 是，但不那麼容易如此做。 不同於氧氣酒吧， Oxia被包裝以罐(圓柱形容器為氣體)形式。 從工程學和設計透視，包含被加壓的氣體的金屬圓筒是潛在危險(可以爆炸如果不適當地做)。 如此，在許多企圖，創建者最後做了Oxia符合當局之後設置的嚴密的規格。

在參觀以後 Oxia 網站，我意識到公司設法提供證明吸入被氧化的空氣意志給重大作用。 什麼真正地捉住了我的注意是這個要求：「巨蟹星座在我們的身體攻擊每種器官，除了心臟由於氧氣它的反常供應」。

我不知道是否什麼它要求科學地是真實的。 如果您有更多信息關於此，我希望知道。 公司設法告訴(或誤引)我們我們需要更多氧氣防止癌症？

關於好處，這些是什麼它在網站認為：

• 為腦子-被豐富的呼吸的氧氣空氣也許幫助自然地充滿活力(注意詞「可以」)
• 為皮膚-促進更好的血液循環的5月幫助。
• 為胃-氧氣協助劃分食物并且幫助新陳代謝并且援助消化。
• 為腿-專業運動員通常使用氧氣擴大精疲力盡他們的極限和促進更加快速的補救。

幸運地， 公司通過不宣傳Oxia產品是誠實的作為宿酒治療 which the oxygen bars used to do so as the marketing gimmick. The founders said that he preferred to pair the product with the notion of a healthy lifestyle. Fair enough.

So, put things in a nice way, the company does not really offer concrete proof that inhaling mostly-oxygenated air will produce any noticeable effect. I understand that oxygen is used by many people with serious illnesses in hospitals. In fact, friends told me that they have seen it given to people who were panicking at scuba diving sites as a sort of rapid tranquilizer. They believe that inhaling oxygen causes them to feel more relaxed and less anxious. Some also say that they are more relaxed outside from the city, like at seaside. This relaxing effect in natural environments might be caused by the difference in oxygen ratios.

I have not tried Oxia yet, but, I believe that it can be challenging for beginner to use it. If you look at the canister, it has a plastic mouthpiece that slides upward. Based on what I read, Oxia’s engineers initially wanted to attach a mask to the cylinder. But, this design would make the product too cumbersome for carrying. They finally settled on a plastic mouthpiece that slides up to reveal a pinhole from which the oxygen flows. Once the lips are placed over that opening, a trigger can be squeezed to start the surge of oxygen.

Some extremist believed that Oxia would do harm than good. Personally, I do not think that it is doing any good and I doubt it will hurt too. Its benefit can be more psychological than genuinely physical.

If you want to give Oxia a try, you have to get it from the US, Canada, Taiwan, Japan, Mexico and Norway. It is sold mainly in hotel (in rooms or given as complimentary item in luxury hotels), pharmacy, clinics and spas. The price is about U$60 for a 120 mm cylinder size (6.1 gallons), U$70 for 150 mm (8.2 gallons) and U$90 for 180 mm (10.6 gallons). Depending on the size, each canister provides about 30 to 40 deep breaths of pollutant-free oxygen. Good thing is that the Oxia dispenser is reusable and refillable, so customer can return the empty units to the place of purchase for a new one. The refill is about U$15.

Do not ever bother to find it in 7-Eleven. May be that is the company’s intention. It never wants to sell to everyone on the street. It is meant for the rich and famous. It is sold for customers luxury hotels, as a cure for jet lag. If you travel to Canada, you can find personal oxygen at the Vancouver Pan Pacific, the Vancouver Opus, Montreal Place D’Armes and various Westin owned hotels. The company also said Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler and New York Giants defensive end Michael Strahan are among its celebrity clients.

Having said that, I have a check at Amazon and I just realized OXIA is currently available there - small dispenser.

Whether Oxia is just another fad, it is hard to say so. Thirty years ago, people said bottled water manufacturers would simply close down within short time. Making people pay for things that formerly were free is just not easy. Why pay for water when they could get it from the tap. Why pay for cable TV when you can watch free-to-air programs? Yet, bottled water companies and paid cable TV business are still thriving.

May be businessmen have run out of things to sell. Oxygen is a business item now. Anyway, if Oxia makes it big, I would think it is going to become the Evian of the bottled oxygen industry. May be Oxia can market its product more than being oxygen supplier. If I were the marketing director of Oxia, I will promote Oxia to be used for other things - to inflate balloons, to dry hair, to make bubbles in your drink and to heal the world by releasing it to the air to improve the Earth’s atmosphere. OK, I know - I am talking nonsense now.

If you cannot get hold of Oxia or simply cannot afford it, no worry. Do this - go to a less crowded place, close your eyes, and breathe deeply through your nose. You will get the oxygen you want.

And it is free.

Having said that, if you have money to kill your curiosity, you can get OXIA from Amazon.
