Three Ways to Relieve Stress and Stay Healthy

Three Ways to Relieve Stress and Stay Healthy

Stress is one of the top contributing factors of many health problems, from high blood pressure to skin rashes. Stress alone might not have caused you to develop COPD, but if you think of it this way, you may have started smoking to calm your nerves when you were under stress. Too much stress over time will begin to wear on your immune system, making it easier for viruses and bacterial infections to make a home in your body. Staying completely stress free in life is near impossible, but there are some things you can do to relieve it for a time, or lessen it.

When people are stressed, they sometimes end up trying to relieve it in some very unhealthy ways. Doing any recreational drugs, including alcohol, binge eating on junk food, or continuing to smoke cigarettes after your diagnosis with COPD, are among the unhealthy habits. Our stress doesn’t always result in these habits, though, they can be much more subtle, such as nail biting, mindlessly picking at your skin or pulling out your hair. Pay attention to your own subtle habits so you can notice when you are stressed. Our bodies tell us things that we don’t consciously recognize.

Should You Go South for the Winter?

Should You Go South for the Winter?

It’s true that certain weather conditions have different effects on certain people. Some people thrive during warm weather, while others have trouble. Some find that they do well when it’s humid and others can breathe easier when it’s nice and dry. If you find that your breathing and overall health are on the rise during the summer months and early fall, then you may want to consider living where it’s warming during the winter.

Of course, this isn’t always possible – you might have obligations, family that you want to be near, or maybe it’s just not in the budget. If you possibly can escape to warmer weather for half of the year, you might end up saving yourself a lot of money in the long run in medical bills.

Used Portable Oxygen Concentrator Batteries

Used Portable Oxygen Concentrator Batteries

Not only are you taking advantage of a great deal with one of our used portable oxygen concentrators, but we also offer some gently used concentrator batteries for various models. It’s always a good idea to take every opportunity you can to stock up on spare batteries.

Having more batteries means you have even more time with 100% mobility while receiving your oxygen therapy. That means more time to explore new places while traveling, and more time to go shopping, out on a date, or hanging out with friends. More batteries, means more freedom.

Even though batteries begin to degrade and lose some of their power over time, it takes a pretty long time before most portable oxygen concentrator batteries are so old and used that they become useless and need to be replaced. For example, it takes 500 power cycles before the Eclipse 3 battery degrades so much that it becomes noticeable. A power cycle is when you charge a battery and deplete it. When you charge it up again, you’ve started the next power cycle.
