Breathing behavior analyst Lisa Kusch joins JawHacks to explore the critical role of carbon dioxide in oxygen delivery and respiratory health. The discussion covers how overbreathing leads to hypocapnia, impacting sleep, energy, and cognitive function. She also examines the pros and cons of breath training methods like Wim Hof and Buteyko, the psychological and physiological factors shaping breathing habits, and practical techniques for retraining the breath to improve overall well-being.
