Nutrition & Supplement :: Discover How Oxygen Therapy Can Improve Your Health

Many of these individuals and others who suffer from various lung diseases will be required to receive oxygen therapy. Numerous studies have determined that adults with chronic lung disorders who receive oxygen therapy not only live longer, they also have an improved quality of life.

All heart attacks are brought about by the failure of the heart muscle's inability to receive adequate supplies of oxygen.
