The Carbonated Body. CO2 book!
-
Amazing new book out about pro metabolic life giving effects of co2 in the body. I’ve read first chapter so far and love it. Ray Peat mention in opening forward. I have no affiliation with this company just love what they are doing.

Book overview
What if the most misunderstood molecule in your body was also one of the most important?For decades, carbon dioxide (CO₂) has been treated as a waste gas, something the body must eliminate as quickly as possible.
But what if that assumption is wrong?
In The Carbonated Body, Steven W. Scott reveals a radically different perspective:
Carbon dioxide is not a byproduct of life.
It is a master regulator of it.
Far from being useless, CO₂ plays a central role in nearly every major system in the body:• It opens blood vessels and restores circulation
• It allows oxygen to reach the tissues that need it
• It stabilizes the nervous system and reduces stress
• It supports mitochondrial energy production
• It helps regulate inflammation and immune balance
• It promotes tissue repair and physiological resilience
When carbon dioxide levels are optimal, the body functions as a coordinated whole.
When they are disrupted, systems begin to break down.
This Book Explains Why
Drawing from historical medical research, modern physiology, and emerging insights, this book explores how carbon dioxide influences:• Blood flow and microcirculation
• Oxygen delivery through the Bohr Effect
• Cellular energy and mitochondrial function
• Stress resilience and vagal tone
• Inflammation, mast cells, and immune balance
• Brain health, metabolism, and aging
• Tissue repair, angiogenesis, and regenerationBut This Book Is Not Just About CO₂
It is about seeing the body differently.
Once you understand the role carbon dioxide plays, something shifts.
Processes that once seemed separate begin to connect.
Breathing, circulation, metabolism, stress, inflammation, and recovery are no longer isolated systems.
They are part of a single, integrated network.
And carbon dioxide sits at the center.
A New Way to Understand Health
This perspective helps explain why:Oxygen alone is not enough
Nutrients often fail to deliver results
Circulation breaks down before disease appears
Chronic conditions persist despite treatment
And why restoring the body’s internal environment may be the missing piece.Practical Applications Included
You will also learn how to support healthy CO₂ physiology through:• Breath training and CO₂ tolerance
• Carbogen breathing therapy
• Transdermal CO₂ applications
• Environmental and altitude strategies
• Daily habits that improve respiration and circulationIf Nothing Else Has Worked…
If you have tried diets, supplements, or countless health strategies without lasting results, this book offers a different approach.
Because before nutrients can work…
before cells can produce energy…
before tissues can heal…
the body must first restore the conditions that allow life to function.
Carbon dioxide is not the end product of breath.
It is one of the foundations of life.
And once you understand its role, you may never see health the same way again -
@dapose are there any reassurances that this book isnt written with LLM? secondly, The guy who wrote the forward made those quest bars which are made with erythritol. cover art looks bad, the publicity thing you posted here is cringe, and the guy's physiognomy on back cover author photo is soft , weak looking. I will not be further looking into this book.

@sunsunsun what would such a reassurance even look like? "Trust me bro, its not AI." Is that what you're looking for?
In time there is life but no knowledge; outside time there is knowledge but no life

@dapose The website linked from the amazon page where the "book" is sold is shameless AI slop. Fuck yourself.

@jamezb46 thanks. I’m enjoying the book. Tons of research and well written. Have a great day!

@jamezb46 literally something like what you've posted in the next paragraph as counter evidence you cultured swine
