Hypoxia is a lack of oxygen in the body. When it is lacking, the body cannot function and function properly. This may be due to various reasons, including problems with the respiratory system, diseases of the cardiovascular system, excess weight, smoking and many other factors. In this case, doctors talk about exogenous hypoxia.

Exogenous is the lack of oxygen that the body experiences as a result of external influences, and not inside the body. Moreover, this is the result of a lack of oxygen from the outside. This type of pathology is typical for people living outside the city. They experience less environmental pollution than residents of large cities.

Residents of the metropolis every day are faced with smog and other harmful substances that pollute the air. In other words, it is the main pollutant in a polluted city. Breathing such air is very dangerous. First of all, your general health may deteriorate. The risk of anemia and heart problems increases. Even in a completely healthy person, the oxygen saturation of the blood decreases. As a result, all systems begin to work less efficiently. This naturally leads to the occurrence of metabolic disorders, cancer and other diseases.
