Slow breathing and hypoxic challenge: cardiorespiratory consequences and their central neural substrates.

Slow breathing and hypoxic challenge: cardiorespiratory consequences and their central neural substrates.

Controlled slow breathing (at 6/min, a rate frequently adopted during yoga practice) can benefit cardiovascular function, including responses to hypoxia. We tested the neural substrates of cardiorespiratory control in humans during volitional controlled breathing and hypoxic challenge using function...
