energy making
aerobic respiration: with oxygen
Anaerobic respiration: with glucose, inefficient, generates lactic acid, less and less developed muscle fibers to make anaerobic energy so more likely to break down
1970s Phil Maffetone: aerobic zones, personalized training to focus on heart rates
1980s Egil Harvold monkey nose blocking experiment: narrowing dental arch, longer faces
Mouth breathing → decreases pressure → soft tissues in the back of the mouth loosens and flex inward
sleeping with mouth open→Snoring and sleep apnea
Deepest stage of sleep: pituitary gland in brain tells cells to store more water to sleep through without thirst or need to pee, with sleep apnea we are more thirsty and need to pee more
Stats:
- 90% kids have deformity in their mouth and noses
- 45% of adults snore
- 25% American adults over 30 have sleep apnea
Kids, adults, monkeys and relearn nose breathing and face can morph back natural configuration
