Hyperventilation


What is it?

Over breathing; breathing faster than needed.

Causes

This is the number one cause of your physical symptoms! Your brain starts to panic and the first thing you do is take shallow breathes. You are breathing out more C02 then the body produces, which lowers the levels in your blood stream. Then the oxygen available to your brain becomes super low. Your brain starts sending out the wrong messages because it is confused; i.e. to breathe deeper, which makes things worse.
