Key result
Supplemental 95% oxygen with essential oils may improve physical performance and recovery during exertion.
Why the study?
The review aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the role of 95% oxygen supplementation, particularly in conjunction with natural essential oils, to promote health and wellness.
This review highlights the potential physiological and psychological benefits of combining 95% pure portable oxygen with essential oils for performance and recovery.
Should not yet change practice for performance or recovery; leaves open need for RCTs on oxygen-essential oil combinations.
This review article explored the significance of 95% oxygen supplementation, particularly in recreational and therapeutic contexts.It explores the physiological advantages of oxygen, particularly in conjunction with natural essential oils like Lavandula angustifolia, Boswellia carterii, Mentha piperita, Eucalyptus globulus, Citrus paradisi, Salvia rosmarinus, and Citrus sinensis.The article highlights the possible benefits of oxygen supplementation for physical performance, recuperation, and general well-being by synthesizing evidence from several research and publications.The implications for athletes, wellness enthusiasts, and individuals seeking enhanced recovery are discussed, along with the recommendations for future research.Furthermore, the review addresses the practical applications of portable oxygen in urban environments, where air quality may be compromised.By considering the holistic benefits of oxygen and essential oils, this article aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of their role to promote health and wellness.

Hajiaghaee et al. (2024) conducted a review in Hypoxia, physical exertion, and respiratory conditions. 95% pure portable oxygen enhanced with essential oils was evaluated. Supplemental 95% pure portable oxygen enhanced with essential oils may improve physical performance, accelerate recovery, and support respiratory function during exertion or in hypoxic environments.
