In the US, pure, high flow oxygen was part of the COVID kill-chain.

Patient presents with pneumonia and hypoxia. Prescribed pure O2 at ridiculous volumes and pressures. ARDS sets in within hours. Intubation. Remdezivir. Denied food and water. Kidney failure.

I breathe BROWNS GAS hours a day...how does that play in with this salt subject?

Browns gas

"HHO gas can be easily generated by adding electrolyte compounds, such as sodium or potassium hydroxides, to distilled water and applying a low-voltage (9–13 V) direct current."

As water is an element and remains inert, the compounds that are split under electrolysis is the salt. If you are using sodium hydroxide, you are releasing and breathing in sodium salts. Same thing for potassium hydroxide. Oxygen and hydrogen are not produced unless you are using an aluminium electrode. The aluminium metal is the source of oxygen and hydrogen.

I'd suggest you try electrolysing salt/NaCl instead of the hydroxides.

100 reasons water is not H2O by Peter Peterson, avail as a free ebook at Smashwords.

Excerpt Source: https://www.emjreviews.com/respiratory/article/oxy-hydrogen-gas-the-rationale-behind-its-use-as-a-novel-and-sustainable-treatment-for-covid-19-and-other-respiratory-diseases/

Looking at the manufacturing process for sodium hydroxide, we see it includes a mercury electrode and production of a sodium amalgam. Mercury contamination is therefore a possibility.

Hi Jane,

I recently came across your insightful article while researching my persistent lung issues at high altitude compared to my normal experience at sea level.

My family and I recently moved off-grid, and our altitude is approximately 460 meters above sea level... nothing too extreme, but I still experience crackly, dry lung sounds every winter.

As a child, I did struggle with asthma, but this feels quite different. Unfortunately, I find myself relying on Ventolin just to get a decent night's sleep in my own home, which I really dislike, as I'm not a fan of Big Pharma medication.

Interestingly, my symptoms completely vanish during the summer months when we live on our tiny sailboat. I’m curious to know if increasing my salt intake might help alleviate these symptoms, or if this is something I might have to accept as part of my life.

Your article resonated with me, and I'm so grateful to have found your work. Thank you for sharing such valuable insights!

High altitude air is dryer. This creates a problem for the lungs as they work best inside a range of 30-50% humidity.

I suggest trying out a salt pipe or salt inhaler and upping your salt intake in water and food when at altitude. Salt attracts moisture from the air and adding salt particles from an inhaler will help the respiratory mucosa maintain its moisture content.

All mountain sickness symptoms are from dehydration or low salt. Acclimatisation or the addition of blood cells, helps us carry the extra fluid required to fight/buffer the continual threat of dehydration.

Thanks Jane! I recently discovered another piece to my puzzle. There's a lot of underground water here at our property. So we basically live on a geopathic stress line. Wondering if this is my actual problem. Or if it's maybe a combination of this and dehydration...? Are you familiar with how geopathic stressed areas affect our health? I had no idea until now...

How is the geopathic stress measured?

If it’s via EMF, it causes dehydration.

So same remedy.

I think they can measure with EMF detectors. But here they use dowsing rods. Thanks again. I will up the salt and buy a salt inhaler. I have a nebuliser. Perhaps I'll try that first with salty water and see how I go. Your writing is awesome. So glad I found you. Plus I read you're from Oz...and I spent 30 years there 🙏❤️

Will do. This morning for example, I had another wheezing attack at my house. Two hours later we descended into town (we're around 460m above sea level up there). So in town, at my mother's flat the wheezing stopped right away. No brainer, it's the altitude and dry air. Of course we invested everything to go live off grid up there, and now this! And I'm the only one affected. My hubby is ok. And so is my mum. I'm the trouble maker... as usual :)

I have a note, where I have looked at the ranges for every electrolyte in a blood test.

When all the electrolytes are in the same unit, it is very clear Sodium and Chloride are the main players in our physiology. Restricting salt is a great way to undermine our power to heal.

I'm thinking salted inhalants , steamers, humidifiers., nebulizers...what else should we add as an assist substance anything?

Also processed salt is bad right? Are any sea salts bad? What's your 3 favorite salts and why?Maybe sea salt ponds or bath with a foamer machine and ozone or negative ion generator to remake a ocean beach?

Expand full comment
Jane 333's avatar

Salt isn't inherently bad. Avoid salt with anti-caking agents.

I like moist sea salts because they contain a bit of magnesium.

NaCl is the workhorse, the other electrolytes are needed in very small amounts in comparison.

Salt pipes and nasal inhalers can provide air borne salt particles for the respiratory mucosa, to aid rehydration.

Yes; a foamer or micro bubble machine with salty water could be a neat thing to invent and trial. Mimicking the ocean waves release of salt spray.

Zero ozone or oxygen needed because they are both DRYing or dehydrating.

Medically, oxygen is used to dry lungs that aren't draining well because of inflammation and degradation. But oxygen is not discriminatory and will dry out perfectly healthy lung tissue, potentially increasing dysfunctional tissue.

Your words:

"Oxygen and nitrogen... are instead industrial products manufactured from air."

"I trust you can see oxygen understandably is not present in air because is it a manufactured product and contained under pressure and also understand why plants and trees can’t possibly give off oxygen."

Right, oxygen is manufactured from air, but not present in air. ...Made from air, but not present in air. Huh???

To my puny little brain, that sounds a lot like pretzel logic.

The difference between air and oxygen is moisture content.

Air is measured by its moisture in grams per cubic metre: humidity. Natural or God made

Oxygen is measured by its dryness in parts per million of water contamination. Manmade product

Think sugar cane: natural

And

Sugar: man made

Getting SALTY is important women's business.

Women need more salt than men.

Women carry more fluid and our salt status manages fluid distribution and capacity.

Women are the fluid full, the beauty full, our womanly physiology is broadcast by our soft curves.

Dehydration or low salt/hyponatremia is an emergency and managed by the adrenals.

This becomes very apparent at puberty.

PMS is caused by dehydration and adrenal management.

The adrenals bring on the FIGHT/FLIGHT/FREEZE response. Here there is no compassion, no perspective, no reasoning. Salt returns: empathy, perspective and strategic clear thinking.

Morning sickness is caused by dehydration and adrenal management.

Alcohol poisoning is caused by dehydration and adrenal management.

Anorexia, nausea and vomiting, dizziness on rising are signs of low salt status.

I would even venture to say eclampsia is caused by dehydration and adrenal management.

Fluid management is crucial in carrying a baby to term. Ample salt is required to ensure there is enough blood circulation for baby and mother.

Breast milk production can be interrupted by dehydration and/or adrenal management. Salt is key to increasing milk production and recovering from stressful events while breast feeding.

The adrenals will also prevent pregnancy by stopping the production of sex hormones because an emergency is no time to carry a baby. In this way, salt restriction, a low salt status will reduce population. The WHO boasts about this effect.

Adrenal management from chronic dehydration/low salt is noticed by:

Type 2 diabetes is twice as prevalent in adolescent girls than boys.

The adrenals produce cortisol, cortisol increase blood sugar levels.

Anxiety and depression is twice as prevalent in women to men.

The adrenals produce adrenaline, this brings feelings of anxiety and depression for no apparent reason. Salt rests the adrenals as it returns rehydration.

Dementia is twice as prevalent in women to men.

Chronic dehydration is prevalent in nursing home inhabitants, with their mandated low salt diet and dry air conditioning, stress and coffee and tea. This means the tide goes out in the brain frequently and cognitive deficits manifest. The brain is most sensitive to dehydration / low salt. A headache is a sign of dehydration, not a prompt the take a pHARMa pill.

One thing i dont understand:

If we breathe something other than oxygen.. how about the energy production inside the body (the TCA Cycle)!? The mitochondria and the TCA Cycle need oxygen! Otherwise the ATP Production doesnt run and the body switches to fermentation (without oxygen) instead producing lactic acid.

So if we dont breathe oxygen, how shall we feed the TCA cycle and the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation with oxygen?

Jane 333's avatar

Our physiology requires zero oxygen. Zero.

Oxygen is a powerful dehydrator.

Our physiology requires the distribution of moisture.

Water follows salt.

Once you see my logic, oxygen is the antithesis of what our physiology requires, it frees the mind to look for alternative explanations for how the ATP operates. A triple phosphate is a soap. Bubbles require surfactant. Water and air's structure is bubbles. The cell membrane is facilitating the movement of salty bubbles.

Last November Gerald Pollack proposed that oxygen does not get transmitted from the lungs to the blood. Instead, two electrons from oxygen are transferred to hemoglobin in RBCs. The RBCs deliver the hemoglobin to the cells, where the electrons are offloaded for direct use in the electron transport chain (or possibly for storage, if the charge of the cell membrane is deficient - not knowing whether the cell membrane utilizes a different source of electrons).

The more I ponder that, the more I think it is likely that oxygen in our cells and blood comes from nutrients, not air. Oxygen binds with a lot of nutrients, so as nutrients are broken down and used in various processes, any oxygen not needed is released for use elsewhere.

I'm no chemist. But if Gerald Pollack believes that cellular oxygen does not originate from the lungs, I'm inclined to believe him.

Jane 333's avatar

Gerald is using electrons instead of oxygen because a dry gas is obviously not carried by the RBCs.

They carry salt water. The hospital’s best remedy is IV saline because once our physiology is hydrated it can heal.

The salt restriction directive has caused people to avoid salt and suffer chronic dehydration and this brings on chronic dis-ease.

Electrons remain theoretical and there are better explanations than the atomic model.

Salty air and increased pressure gives the lungs a boost to rehydrate the red blood cells with salt water as they pass through the alveoli capillaries.

What is the heart doing?

Right Atrium: Receives dehydrated dark contracted red blood cells from the body through the superior and inferior vena cava.

Right Ventricle: Sends dehydrated dark contracted red blood cells to the lungs through the pulmonary artery.

Left Atrium: Receives hydrated light expanded red blood cells from the lungs through the pulmonary veins.

Left Ventricle: Sends "energised" hydrated light expanded red blood cells to the body through the aorta.

The red blood cells deliver salt water where-ever moisture is required. Extremities are often drier from limited salt. Dry heels in winter, the dryer months because cold air holds the least moisture.

I don't know what you're suffering but you may want to watch some of Joe's vids. You may see some validity for you with hyperbarics. I used his tank for a year or so then decided to fabricate my own. Added oxygen is not indicated with hyperbarics. That is the allopathic scam to greatly limit the benefits and to make use of hyperbaric's dangerous. Watch this vid which shows one woman's experience with both; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RERAwVFgD4s

If you call take into consideration Joe is a salesman. When you hear of the benefits he has seen don't dismiss them out of hand as I did. When I began this I helped Joe carry an 89 year old arthritic woman into his tank and helped carry her out on a Monday. She sat on a bench in the tank with her hands tightly bent and obviously in pain. She did not speak the entire session. I did not go back until Friday that week. She had taken two sessions each day for the whole week. Which is a total of one hour each day at 60 feet. She walked into the tank that Friday (you have to bend to get in and the bottom is rounded) sat down by herself and began knitting a sweater. She was vocal and ecstatic at how the tank was helping her. I can attest to fibromyalgia, some cancers, eye injuries, traumatic brain injuries, lyme, arthritis and what was told to me was general malaise.

Like UFO's, ghosts etc one has to experience this to believe it.

It’s a good point about the tripping. I had heard of drinking this stuff and my longterm readers will know me as someone who will try anything and lick anything. For example licking urinals during 2021 and 2022 I proved that there was neither contagion nor pandemic. For six months I’ve been licking blue-jay poo, proving it’s unlikely there’s bird flue in that population. Not that I believe in viruses, but I am always curious about the limits of our interactions with what appears to be not us and “hostile.” I’ve always made a point of kissing stray dogs on the lips. Obviously I never get sick from any of this. My theory is that we get sick when we decide to, when something unnecessary needs to come out of us, as for when someone dies or we have a breakup. My plan is to go live in a poor part of Indonesia (I haven’t lived there in many decades) and explore further the limits of the idea of “hostile territory.” I remember the Indonesians as the friendliest people I’d ever met. Maybe they still are. But their soil and general sensorium might be, for my internal workings, interesting! I live generally very far from the equator and from volcanoes. 2026, is the plan.

You mentioned tripping. Moving around the internet, lost as I usually am, I tripped over these notes here under a pee article a day or two ago and found Sober Christian Gentleman. Now everything about his name would normally have suggested we would have little in common. But I noticed how gentlemanly he was, answering in measured tones without angry typos the many typo-laden insults tossed his way by those who feared pee and (by extension) the vat of amniotic fluid they pee’d into and drank as infants in the nurturing womb…oh wait a minute, I just realized I’m blocked. You can comment but I can’t. I’ll break off there then.

Well that’s not very, um, Christian, ha ha. It feels like how bullies work in teams and they get you down and don’t let you talk or they smack you, but they all get to talk. What exactly is so scary to you guys about the occasional snort of pee? Interacting with you bullies has had the effect of getting me interested in drinking the stuff. So for that I’m grateful. —david

Hi Jane, what are your views on diabetes? Are glucose levels causative or correlative and indicative of a whole immune system dysfunction or something else? Are the glucose levels - a systemic method to adjust for some other shift ? Thr definition is diabetes is also chanigngand now people are also including Alzheimer’s with type 3 diabetes. Thr bio marker based diseases are fundamentally different from the phenotype presenting diseases. Iam unable to understand why diabetes manifests as different complications in different people.

Jane 333's avatar

Hi Aravind

Here’s some me data for you to ponder.

Glucose is used to move salt out of cells in hypernatremia. Glucose IV is used. So glucose lowers cellular saltiness.

Dehydration is an emergency. The adrenals manage emergencies. Cortisol is pumped out. Cortisol raises blood glucose levels. Remember an emergency is supposed to be a temporary state.

So to create a perfect storm in our physiology. Direct people to restrict their salt intake. This creates chronic dehydration. Chronic cortisol higher levels than normal. And eat lots of carbohydrates and sugar.

This is the mechanism for T2 diabetes.

The solution is: diet of low carbs and increase salt intake to reduce cortisol levels back to normal by maintaining hydration.

Diabetes T2 has increased with salt restriction directions. Children now have T2 when it used to be an elderly condition.:Tea (diuretic) and toast (carbohydrate) Diet.

So T2 diabetes is a symptom of chronic dehydration.

It's understandable to think that something explosive like hydrogen and oxygen couldn't combine to make something as harmless as water. But the key difference is that when hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) form water (H2O), they chemically bond and change properties. The gases are no longer separate or explosive—they form a stable liquid that has entirely different characteristics. The bond between H and O is why water is wet and can extinguish fires, even though the individual elements are very different on their own. Science has tested and confirmed this consistently.

Explain hydrolysis and the necessity for there to be a salt or decomposing electrode in water for a current to occur.

Water at zero TDS does not conduct.

The TDS must arrive from elsewhere for a current to occur.

Water is an element and a good insulator not a compound that disassociates into two dry combustible gases. Water has similar conductivity to wood.

Explain how oxygen is made and focus on the removal of water. How is oxygen calibrated.

Plants and trees do not release oxygen, perform your own experiment. They transpire moisture just like us. Hence we both can wilt in the heat.

What’s the material safety data on inhalation of oxygen and nitrogen? This might give you an insight into why oxygen and nitrogen do not make up 99% of the air we breathe.

Inhalation: unconscious and not breathing.

Hi Haletsky

Have you read my article How does salt restriction lead to heart dis-ease and fear based reactionary thinking?

I suspect if you have high bp without a good cause you might be a salt sensitive and your adrenals have enlarged to keep you alive.

This means your body could be super efficient with any salt it gets and it boosts your blood volume.

Look up the symptoms of adrenal hyperplasia and compare. This means your body is super smart and if it can grow extra adrenal material it can reduce it when it’s no longer being called upon. Our bodies are doing everything to keep us alive, they are not trying to kill us. That’s erroneous thinking.

Hydration rests the adrenals and it means they can recoup.

Healing begins with hydration.

Dis-ease with dryness.

Gentle adjustments to your salt intake. A few grains under your tongue, make friends with it, gain confidence.

Notice how you feel after it. Calmer …

You could do an experiment, take your bp and then take some salt and look at the values, 10 mins after, 30 mins after, 1 hour after. You become THE EXPERT on your salt intake and the effects it has, with the use of your bp machine. Keep a log of your experiments. So you can monitor changes as you go along.

I had adrenal exhaustion. I started with a pinch in my water, then I went to ¼ teaspoon, now I can easily drink my water with ½ teaspoon.

Gentle with self is my motto.

Hi Jane, thank you for such an informative reply. I will definitely re-read the article again. You are onto something here for sure.

I believe that my adrenal function has been affected big time by heavy lifting / crossfit workouts which I abruptly stopped after my thyroid removal surgery. Hormone replacement therapy is still a very complicated process for me and every time I try to increase my dose I get a negative response from my adrenals. You are 100% correct about sensitivity so I’ll try to keep it low and slow.
