A cell emits lactic acid and free radicals when it isn't getting everything it needs, such as oxygen and glucose 1 0 2Stimulation by estrogen doesn't produce the normal amount of carbon dioxide, leading to tissue experiencing oxygen deprivation, swelling, and cell division 1 0 2Breathing too much oxygen displaces too much carbon dioxide, provoking an increase in lactic acid 1 0 2The excess production of lactate displaces carbon dioxide from the blood, partly as a compensation for acidity 1 0 2Activity increases the need for oxygen, and also increases the tendency to accumulate lactic acid 1 0 2The lactic acid has to be disposed of, but their ability to extract oxygen is reduced 1 0 2Lactic acid triggers the defensive reactions of the organism, leading to tissue wasting from excessive glucocorticoid hormone 1 0 2Free fatty acids and lactate impair glucose use, and promote edema, especially in the lungs 1 0 2Bleeding with vascular spasm is sometimes a contributing factor to brain damage in both the old and the fetal brain 1 0 2Hypothyroidism, estrogen excess, free unsaturated fats cause increased vascular permeability and brain edema, protein leakage, and alteration of the matrix 1 0 2
