What research is available regarding the use of supplemental oxygen?
We will continue to monitor peer-reviewed research on the use of supplemental oxygen. Some recent findings include: Effect of FIO2 on oxidative stress during interval training at moderate altitude. Wilber RL, Holm PL, Morris DM, Dallam GM, Subudhi AW, Murray DM, Callan SD. Med Sci Sports Exerc 2004 Nov;36(11):1888-94 CONCLUSION: supplemental oxygen used in conjunction with high-intensity interval training at altitude (“live high + train low via supplemental O2” (LH + TLO2)) results in a significant improvement in exercise performance without inducing additional free radical oxidative stress as reflected in hematological and urinary biomarkers. Cognitive performance, hyperoxia, and heart rate following oxygen administration in healthy young adults Physiol Behav 1999 Nov;67(5):783-9 Scholey AB, Moss MC, Neave N, Wesnes K. FINDINGS: The results confirm that oxygen administration significantly enhances cognitive performance above that seen in the air inhalation condition. Subjects who rece
