The prognosis of corona virus patients depends on indicators of oxygenation or saturation of blood with oxygen. There are several simple home remedies that can help you raise this number to a relatively safe level.
prone
The prone position is the most effective way to quickly raise the oxygen levels in the body. This is scientifically proven, and doctors recommend it to their patients. A person with a significant low level of oxygen should first lie on his stomach with his chest raised, leaning on several pillows or some kind of clothing. You can also put one pillow under your neck and two pillows under your stomach.
Antioxidants
Antioxidants have many benefits, especially when it comes to saturating the blood with oxygen. Antioxidants help the body use oxygen more efficiently, thus controlling oxygen levels. The most antioxidant-rich foods include blackberries, blueberries, beans, and a few other foods.
breathing exercises
Another very effective way to oxygenate the blood is through slow, deep breathing exercises. How you breathe is important to maintain the oxygenation of your blood. Practicing breathing slowly helps to get more air into the lungs so the body gets more oxygen.
Drinking water
Make sure your body is not dehydrated. Water is necessary to supply the blood with oxygen. The more you drink, the easier it is for your lungs to stay hydrated, and the ability to supply the blood with oxygen and remove carbon dioxide depends on it.
Aerobic exercise
The most important way to increase oxygen levels is to do daily aerobic exercise. Proper exercise can help relieve breathing problems. In no case do not forget that if the oxygen level drops below a certain indicator, for example, 92-93%, then you need to urgently seek the help of a doctor and not try any home methods of dealing with this problem.
