YOURE BREATHING YOURSELF TO DEATH 🚨
U FEEL LIKE SHIT 24/7
WAKE UP. ITS A SIMPLE FIX.
YOUR MECHANICS ARE BROKEN
A CO2 MONITOR WONT HELP YOU.
excess CO2 is killing your sleep and daytime productivity.
don’t believe me?
sleep (PMIDs: 26452168, 32979003, 37076419):
<750 ppm = safe zone
>900-1000 ppm: sympathetic nervous system activation, 1.3% decreases sleep efficiency, more time awake (5-10min per night), less deep sleep, morning grogginess, poorer next day cognitive performance.
>1300 ppm (common in poorly ventilated bedrooms): 1.8% reduced sleep efficiency, 7 min less deep sleep, higher post wake cortisol, morning grogginess more pronounced.
>2000-3000 ppm (extreme): strongly linked to fragmented sleep, morning sluggishness and markedly poorer cognitive performance.
daytime (PMID 26502459):
>945 ppm: cognitive function declines ~15% on decision making and complex tasks
1400-2500 ppm: dramatic drop (up to 50%) on complex tasks. performance becomes "dysfunctional."
The solution is simple. Get a CO2 meter (NDIR is the best), use it, open windows and decrease CO2 levels as much as possible wherever you are, especially when you are sleeping/working.
