Nasal breathing
TopicHeard in 1 episode across 1 show since Jul 2026
Nasal breathing is the physiological process of inhaling and exhaling air through the nose rather than the mouth. This method of respiration filters, warms, and humidifies incoming air while promoting the release of nitric oxide, which helps dilate blood vessels and improve oxygen uptake. It is the primary and healthiest breathing pathway for humans and many other animal species.
