Recreational Oxygen Frequently Asked Questions

Is Recreational Oxygen good for athletes?

Definitely YES! In fact, athletes are our best customers! Regardless of your sport or fitness goals, oxygen can help you improve your physical performance and get more out of your training!

Can I become addicted to recreational oxygen?

No! Oxygen is a natural element with no side effects and no addictive tendencies.

Will oxygen really help my hangover?

Oxygen is needed to break down alcohol in the body. Increasing your oxygen intake can curb and eventually reverse the rising blood alcohol level from drinking. Many Japanese doctors conclude that inhaling oxygen is the best (and fastest) way to overcome a hangover. For best results with hangover, we recommend taking some oxygen before you go to sleep to burn off the alcohol when you sleep, and in the morning if symptoms still exist.

Can Recreational Oxygen help improve my sex life?

Recreation oxygen is not a sexual enhancement product. However, since it makes physical exertion easier, we have many customers who do report that it helps improve their sex life by giving them more physical endurance.

Can Recreational Oxygen help me lose weight?

Recreational oxygen is not a weight loss product, but since it can help make exercise easier, it can be very helpful when trying to lose weight through exercise. If using oxygen allows you to exercise longer and more intensely, in theory, you should be able to lose weight faster because you will be burning more calories. Just using oxygen without exercise will not burn calories.

Will I see an effect as soon as I use it?

It depends on your body’s condition at the time. Did you just wake up from a restful sleep or did you just finish working out for 90 minutes? The more your body is oxygen deficient, the more beneficial effect the supplemental oxygen will have. The other issue is whether or not you use enough. Most people who try recreational canned oxygen and don't feel anything simply do not use enough to make a difference. Refer to our Usage Tips for best results.

How much do I need to use per session?

Refer to our Usage Tips for best results. If you are getting drowsy or falling asleep while driving, all you may need to make you alert and awake is several breaths. If you just finished jogging or woke up with a bad hangover, you may want to use much more. There are no global answers. Since everyone’s body is different, everyone will react a little differently. Taking just a few breaths here and there will usually not result in any noticeable results.

I used the oxygen and did not feel a difference... Does that mean I am immune to the benefits?

Not necessarily.  It usually just means that you didn't use enough for your body and your specific situation. Keep using more until you do start to notice the difference. When it comes to recreational oxygen, everyone needs to establish their own dosage requirements. It is really important to note that recreational oxygen does not work like other energy product because it does not involved stimulants or sugars. Typically, you just notice that you feel good, your mind is more clear and alert, and that physical exertion becomes easier. With oxygen, there is no nervous energy, jitters or crashing to deal with.

How do I know when the can is empty?

We do not have a liquid or propellant in our cans (they only contain oxygen and ambient air) so unfortunately you can’t shake the can to see how much is left, like other aerosol products. The only true way to tell when the can is getting low or empty, is the flow pressure. When there no more flow, the can is empty.

The can is so light, how do I know it’s full?

All cans are quality control tested for pressure, and operability before they leave our facilities. Unfortunately, there is no economical way to add a full/empty indicator on the cans.

Why should I buy Recreational Oxygen when I can get oxygen for free?

The oxygen percent in the air you breathe is nowhere near as high as what our products offer. You are actually breathing a maximum of 21% oxygen at any given time from the atmosphere. According to Dr. Kaufmann of the Hyperbaric Therapy Centers of Northern California, breathing in pure oxygen will give you 10 times as much oxygen as breathing just air. Our recreational oxygen contains 90-95% oxygen... you do the math.

Is recreational oxygen safe?

Yes. Oxygen toxicity only occurs when breathing pure oxygen for hours at a time. All of our cans contain less than 2 minutes of continuous flow oxygen. Plus, we do not have an airtight delivery system, so even though the oxygen in the can may be 95% oxygen, that's not even close to the concentration of oxygen once it enters your lungs. As a general precaution, we do not recommend using more than 2 cans in a 24 hour period.

Can I transport Recreational Canned Oxygen on an airplane?

According to TSA, personal aerosol products under 4 ounces are allowed in packed luggage. Our aerosol cans fall into this category. If you try to carry recreational oxygen on plane, it will get confiscated. Our HIGH PRESSURE cans are not allowed on the plane under any circumstances. High Pressure cans are clearly marked on our ordering page.

Can Recreational Oxygen be used medically?

Absolutely not. Recreational oxygen is NOT FOR MEDICAL USE and is not intended to treat, cure or prevent any diseases. Always consult your physician before taking any supplement products. PLEASE NOTE: Recreational oxygen should not be used if you have: asthma, lung or heart ailments without approval from your medical doctor.
