Tag: Oxygen levels

A 2018 study in *The Lancet Respiratory Medicine* found that neuromuscular blockers used during general anesthesia were associated with a significantly increased risk of respiratory complications after surgery. This raises the important question: Do muscle relaxers affect oxygen levels in broader, non-surgical contexts, and what precautions should patients be aware of?

Used for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine, Shilajit is a herbomineral substance composed of over 84 minerals [1.5.3, 1.8.3]. The central question many ask is: **Does Shilajit increase oxygen levels?** Evidence suggests its active components may play a role in oxygen transport and utilization [1.2.1, 1.2.2].
