Hyperventilation is common in sleep and shock, sometimes producing extreme vasoconstriction due to the loss of carbon dioxide 1 0 2Hyperventilation is similar to being in the presence of too much oxygen 1 0 2Breathing too much oxygen displaces too much carbon dioxide, provoking an increase in lactic acid 1 0 2Oxygen toxicity and hyperventilation create a systemic deficiency of carbon dioxide 1 0 2Carbon dioxide deficiency makes breathing more difficult in pure oxygen, impairs the heart’s ability to work, and increases the resistance of blood vessels, impairing circulation and oxygen delivery to tissues 1 0 2When carbon dioxide production is low due to hypothyroidism, there will usually be some lactate entering the blood even at rest 1 0 2The excess production of lactate displaces carbon dioxide from the blood, partly as a compensation for acidity 1 0 2The loss of carbon dioxide from the lungs in the presence of high oxygen pressure increases the blood’s affinity for oxygen, and restricts its delivery to the tissues 1 0 2Hypothyroid people are hyperventilating even at rest and at sea level 1 0 2Hyperventilation is present in hypothyroidism, and is driven by adrenalin, lactate, and free fatty acids 1 0 2
