Says Jill Johnson, the author: "I have written this book to help those who are sick and tired of struggling with their body shape and health,and who are angry at all the money and time they have wasted on pills,powdered drinks, and gadgets."

Say devoted Oxycisers:

• It does make sense: oxygen burns fat and it's so simple to do!
• You can lose weight on it (I lost about 10 pounds in 3-4 months) and itdoes develop you aerobically
• To my surprise, Oxycise DID help me lose 20 pounds over 8 months
• The video is mediocre but just ignore that and follow along. You'll be glad that you did!
• his workout really gets my heart rate up right up where it should be
• You don't have to count calories, you don't have to jog, you don't have to lift weights or do the stair-stepper

When the body hyperventilates, it fails to adequately delivery oxygen to tissues, thus disrupting the appropriate co-ordination of breathing and blood flow. It does so partly because hemoglobin that carries oxygen from lungs to tissues fails to yield the oxygen there. Now, in spite of deep breathing, here is too little oxygen in the arterial blood. Once the body is in this state, a whole chain of reactions can occur - Is Deep Breathing Dangerous? -- check it out!

The fascinating fact is that just the opposite to deep intensive breathing, shallow self-limited breathing was shown to be very healing. Don't ask me why though I do have my favorite hypothesis. Just think about Endorphins, these potent internal healers of ours, are being released into the blood by mild lack of oxygen and excess of carbon dioxide

Does it mean that I don't believe in Oxycise? Not at all! I just think that this is stressful as any exercise is, and stress can train and strengthen the body.
