Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 63658653 Romania 10/05/2014 12:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Exposure to high levels of methane gas depletes the oxygen level in the body, causing difficulty in breathing and suffocation. Since the levels of oxygen in the body depletes, the body tries to make it up by using the oxygen contained in the bodily fluids. This basically leads to dehydration.

Due to the depletion of oxygen in the body, it gives rise to cognitive problems. The person is inattentive, has memory loss and poor judgment. These symptoms aggravate, when the exposure to this gas is more. [link to www.buzzle.com] |

User ID: 18181592 United States 10/05/2014 12:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You do realize that "wetlands" distribute 20% of the methane gas totals. Concentrated around the wetlands is 20% of all methane release. Excluding oceans/volcanos, everything else is an accumulated total from all varying factors. By this dumbass theory, all people living in/by the wetlands would be dropping dead of heart attacks at a much higher rate. Oklahoma had an oil boom in the late 80's and not again until 2011, repeat no oil boom in OK the year 2009. Why the higher rate of deaths due to heart failure instead of cancer??? Oklahomans and Texans are meat and potato lovers, fried chicken, bacon and eggs and you had better smother gravy on everything. It's the diet stupid. |

Obesity is associated with many serious health concerns, including diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, some cancers, sleep apnea and other medical problems. [link to www.cedars-sinai.edu] |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 63661997 Romania 10/05/2014 01:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Breathalyzers May Soon Predict Heart Failure, Obesity In a paper published Monday in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, Raed Dweik, MD, of the Cleveland Clinic, detailed how and his colleagues successfully detected heart failure in patients using breath analysis. "We were actually very surprised by the finding," said Dr. Dweik, who has studied breath testing extensively. He and his team had at first included heart failure patients as a control group for a study analyzing the breath of patients with kidney failure. Then they realized the heart failure patients had their own unique "breathprint." A finding like this is what makes this particular field of research, which in some ways is still in its infancy, so exciting, Dweik said. Researchers at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles analyzed the breath of 792 participants and found that those with high concentrations of the gases methane and hydrogen had significantly higher body mass indexes (BMIs) and higher percentages of body fat than those whose breath had the normal mix of gases or a high concentration of either methane or hydrogen alone.
