Wider vessels
CO2 relaxes vessel walls, opening capillaries that are normally too narrow to fully perfuse tissue.
The science
More CO2 means more oxygen reaches your tissue.
It sounds backwards, so here is the mechanism: the same one your body uses every second, dialed up on purpose.
Mechanism 01
The Bohr effect
Hemoglobin carries oxygen through your blood, but it only lets go where it is needed. The trigger for release is CO2.
Carbogenetics devices raise CO2 at the skin or in the breath, prompting more oxygen to be released where metabolism is highest. You are not just chasing more oxygen in. You are delivering more of what you already have.
Oxygen unloading
Low CO2 / oxygen stays bound90%90%
Raised CO2 / oxygen released90%99%
Same blood, same lungs. The difference is how much oxygen actually makes it off the carrier and into the cell.
Mechanism 02
Circulation opens up
CO2 is a natural vasodilator. Raising it widens the smallest blood vessels so blood carrying freshly released oxygen can actually get there.
More blood flow
With vessels open and oxygen unloading, more oxygenated blood reaches skin, muscle, and healing tissue.
Calmer tissue
Improved oxygenation supports the tissue's own repair processes rather than fighting against a deficit.
The name
A century-old idea, brought home.
Carbogen is the classic carbon dioxide and oxygen mixture used in medicine and research for over a hundred years. Carbogenetics takes that long-studied principle out of the clinic and engineers it into devices you can use at home.
Where we stand
We are careful about claims. Carbogenetics devices are wellness tools for recovery, circulation, and performance support, not medical treatments. Nothing here is intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
