AI Thread Summary
The normal pH range of human blood is between 7.35 and 7.45, and this balance is primarily maintained through the bicarbonate buffer system, which regulates pH by controlling carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the blood. The discussion also touches on specific breathing exercises from "Secrets of The Ninja," which are said to create an oxygen debt that makes the system more acidic, followed by exercises aimed at saturating the bloodstream with oxygen to promote alkalinity. The exercises are noted for producing a breezy sensation on the tongue, indicating a shift in energy dynamics. The inquiry seeks validation of these claims regarding the relationship between breathing techniques and blood pH regulation.

The pH of our blood ranges normally from 7.35 to 7.45.

My question is that how this pH is maintained in our blood.

Are there any reactions that keeps our blood almost neutralized ? !

AFAIK, pH is maintained in humans by the bicarbonate buffer- pH is controlled by CO2 levels.
 
Secrets of The Ninja breathing exercises:

The first three exercises involved
creating an oxygen debt, making the system more acidic, and were concerned with the
accumulation of energy. The next three are designed to saturate the blood stream with oxygen,
making the system more alkaline; these are concerned with the direction of energy.
These are characterized by the breezy sensation felt on the tongue during the performance of
this exercise. The last three exercises are concerned with the transmission of energy.

any truth to that Andy?
 

Thread 'I need help understanding this quote about recent Natural Selection'

I am reading Nicholas Wade's book A Troublesome Inheritance. Please let's not make this thread a critique about the merits or demerits of the book. This thread is my attempt to understanding the evidence that Natural Selection in the human genome was recent and regional. On Page 103 of A Troublesome Inheritance, Wade writes the following: "The regional nature of selection was first made evident in a genomewide scan undertaken by Jonathan Pritchard, a population geneticist at the...
