CO2 therapy can cure neurological diseases

This is what this old school report found.

They tested CO2 therpay for a variety of neurological issues from anxiety and depression to psychopathy and even alcoholism .
They also talk about a boy with symptoms that sound like tourette's who was completely changed and could live a normal life after.
And a psychopath who was functional in society for the first time, that "seemed to be a changed man."

75% of the people found some sense of improvement, while about 25% were basically cured/in remission.
Which shows the fundamental role of metabolism in disease and the fundamental role of CO2 in metabolism.


The review is a great read and goes into detail about many patients, showing the before and after effect.

Alcoholism:
"An alcoholic young
man, the despair of his family, has been well, happy, and produc-
tive for six months--the longest period of abstinence in 12 years."

Depression:
"Another woman of 45 who had had
three recurrent depressions for which she had received electric
shock therapy was started on carbon dioxide-oxygen treatments in
her third depression, after failure to recover with electric shock.
She felt well after 12 treatments, and the course of treatment was
continued to 25"

Tourette's:
"The twelfth patient was a boy of 11, who had maladie de tic. In spite of careful medical attention over the previous three years, he had progressed to the point where he had no conscious control over
his shoulder and head jerks, gutteral sounds and foul utterances. After 15 treatments, with no other medication used, he was a
chmaged boy. He still has occasional twitches and throat noises when under tension but is a happy, active boy, diligent in home chores and interested in school work."


Also gotta love the old school ,politically incorrect language of those days:

"One woman, whose chief complaint was sexual frigidity, was considered well by both the husband and the patient herself after 10
treatments."

"He, also, noticed many other signs of improvement: The
most notable was a lessened tension about his homosexuality, and he requested continuation of therapy. "

The setup:
"The treatments are easy to administer. A tank of the gas mixture made commercially costs about $10 and is sufficient for about
100 treatments. A two-stage regulator allowing free flow of the gas mixture and a mask with a large (five-liter) re-breathing bag
are the only other equipment required. The regulator in current use has a line gauge calibrated to deliver up to 60 pounds of the
gas mixture per square inch. The treatments are short, the total time varying from five to 10 minutes unless combined with psycho-
therapy, which is not necessary in the average case. The writer believes the contraindications to the treatment are severe cardiac or puhnonary disorders and excessively high blood pressure. 3
Some caution should be exercized, in the administration of the gas, not to increase the distress of the depressed or anxious patient.
The same might be said of the aggressive patient who is likely to have a violent motor reaction early in the course of treatment. The
number of inhalations varies with the patient, from 20 to 40 on the average, although 70 and even 90 have been used at one treat-
ment without ill effect."

"The inhalant mixture consisted of 30 per cent carbon dioxide and 70 per cent oxygen."

Thanks for sharing. Co2 therapy would be such a simple and inexpensive thing to make a staple in ERs worldwide.

Not just in ERs as this study shows ,but for almost any condition.
I could rival aspirin in its effectiveness in treating disease...

Very interesting, thanks for posting. I have a tank I am still trying to get around to using.

The concentration of CO2 described as used is just beyond what would be considered safe, even by our (or my assumed safe limits) standards of 5-10%. Though each session being very short may explain why it is effective without being dangerous.

Abolishing the FDA and the AMA would be needed, or one would have the smarts like @EnergeticLeo to build one and practice self-therapy.

Truly so, but those of us who aren't in an emergency can simply sit down and repeatedly hold our breath for 5-10min to achieve the same effect.

Qi Gong and Tai Chi practicioners have similar claims.
Since it also involves movement maybe there is something into it involving blood circulation off course.
Movement without imagery, just being mindful aware.
Many claim feeling warmed probably because of co2.

Thanks for the heads up. I agree. In another study they used the same approach to intentionally bring on unconsciousness. Dont know why , but I dont think that's necessary....

In addition, in the current climate of CO2 scare, no one would be let to experiment with larger doses. So we rely on the experiments from the good ol' days.
Below is the paper fished out from The differential effects of carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide inhalation therapies upon anxiety symptoms under permissive and nonpermissive conditions - PubMed, which notes that "a comprehensive review [critical] of the relevant literature on CO2 therapy."

Perhaps it has something to do with CO2 as an anesthetic? Its use as such I believe has been banned for a long time already. I believe it's because CO2 costs little. Secondly, a firm grasp on knowing how to use CO2 in a medical setting is required, and the people who have that ability are generally critical thinkers that would question everything sacrosanct in the establishment. The establishment just sees it fit to have useful idiots with degrees than people with useful solutions.
