What Researchers Did
This review paper explored the mechanisms and applications of intermittent hypoxic therapy, a treatment developed by Ukrainian and Russian scientists, particularly for conditions like bronchial asthma.
What They Found
Researchers found that 20 years of experience with intermittent hypoxic therapy for chronic obstructive bronchitis and bronchial asthma showed significant clinical improvement or even complete recovery. This therapy also lacked negative side effects often seen with drug treatments and boosted the body's overall resistance.
