I don't have the links per se. I originally looked this information up trying to determine what our exhale was composed of. Also as a certified scuba diver, I already knew that carbon dioxide was dangerous. From that I put it together to provide the above.
What I find amazing though is how utterly poor our respiratory system actually is. After calculating the 5% O2 consumption in the human body, that didn't sound right to me. So, I looked up respiratory information for mammals and humans. What I found was that humans have by far the worst efficient respiratory system of all mammals. Birds have the highest efficient respiratory system.
That information right there tells me everyone one of us already has a medical condition regarding our respiratory system. It may sound outrageous when considering a marathon runner or sprinter, but compared to other mammals they simply do not compare. Also, one has to wonder why respiratory problems are so prevalent in the human population. The lungs we are born with don't give us much room for oxygen use. It's the best we have. The face mask is a cruel form of torture. And what is more striking is so many people don't even recognize it. There is a mass Stockholm Syndrome occurring and suffering. I recognized the mask mandates from the very beginning as an abuse of power and have never worn or ever will wear a face mask. It's the hill I choose to fight on. I recognize it as evil and a symbol of subjugation and submission. I am free, as you are, and all those who fight against the unfolding tyranny.
Your right, it's the only one we have, and you know what, as inadequate as it might be, it seems to work.
Incidentally, I have been to the hospital, intensive care, two times for near drowning. I used to hold my breath underwater for like five minutes. I made the mistake of doing it twice while drinking alcohol, and both time the carbon dioxide just put me to sleep. One of the times, there was people around, and when they noticed me on the bottom of the pool, they got me our of water, and fortunately one was a doctor, and was able to able to bring me back. But the greatest risk of near drowning is that your electrolytes get severely messed up, and there is a high risk of heart attack unless you get it corrected, so I still had to go to ICU.
The second time I was in a pool by myself at night, in out of town apartment pool. Just by sheer luck, someone came along and dived into pool, and ran into me on bottom. Next thing I remember is paramedics are trying to revive me. That incident scared me, and I quite doing that.
