Idiots Are Inhaling CO₂ for Its Alleged ‘Health Benefits’
It’s basically the breathing equivalent of drinking your own pee — but that’s not stopping these people!
Published 1 week ago in Facepalm
In the past few years, some of the most annoying people on Earth have become obsessed with the idea of “biohacking.” Even though we’ve basically had the whole “how to live” thing figured out for quite a while, some people are obsessed with the idea that we can get more out of our brains and extend our longevity — and so, they spend some of the previous few moments we have on Earth doing stupid things like locking themselves in a cryochamber in hopes that they’ll get another few years on this planet at the end.
Personally, I’d try to maximize the time I have with functional joints and a working brain, but that’s just me!
CO2 healed or improved all of these, even homosexuality. ️
Anxiety? CO2
Alcoholism? CO2
Allergy? CO2
Anorexia? CO2
Asthma or shortness of breath? CO2
Compulsion? CO2
Constipation? CO2
Concentration difficulties? CO2
Cephalagia? CO2
Cardiac disturbance? CO2
Depression? CO2… https://t.co/YuaRkWsmE0pic.twitter.com/dtz9dQ9bQr— Veronica, Collagen Scientist (@celestialbe1ng) October 22, 2025
You’ve been lied to about CO₂

It’s not a “waste gas.”
It’s one of the most vital molecules for energy, focus, and longevity.
Here’s what science ACTUALLY shows and how to unlock the 6 main benefits of CO2: pic.twitter.com/MrvAySR0b6
Carbon dioxide is one of, if not the most important factors in health.

Via the bohr effect, higher carbon dioxide levels = more oxygenation of tissues.
People who live at higher altitudes have higher co2 levels, live longer, and lower rates of cancer. Going to a higher altitude…
The latest trend amongst biohackers appears to be straight-up inhaling CO₂. Why? Well, these people say that it can reduce stress and anxiety, “supercharge mitochondrial function,” and improve your metabolism.
So, is that true? No, obviously not.
There are just so, so many studies showing that inhaling CO₂ is really, really bad for you. It can impact your motor function, induce something similar to a panic attack, and, in general, cause a whole host of problems. This is why experts suggest limiting your CO₂ exposure, not increasing it. Even famed biohacker Bryan Johnson — the guy who uses his own son as a bloodboy and measures how often he gets hard at night — says the idea is stupid.
Carbon dioxide reduces cancer growth in multiple studies.
CO2:
‣ Improves oxygen delivery in tumors
‣ Activates anti-inflammatory pathways
‣ Regulates pH (determinant of cancer outcomes)
Far from a "waste product" - CO2 produced during energy (especially carb) metabolism… https://t.co/JFLAsj52dYpic.twitter.com/WiwLdm3GGs— Analyze & Optimize (@Outdoctrination) October 22, 2025
The world will try to spike your cortisol to make you less beautiful, become dull, and age rapidly—but I’m not playing their game.

So, I got a device that’s basically Xanax and Botox on steroids.
Ever wonder why mountain people live longer, stay lean, are more attractive… pic.twitter.com/FoS3qXpQ3K
In short, don’t believe medical advice you find on the internet — and you can just stick to breathing the normal way.
