Is it harmful to breathe pure oxygen?
We can not live without oxygen. we get oxygen from breathing in the air around us. Air contains 21% of oxygen. If we breathe pure oxygen for a long time it burns the food very quickly.
Pure oxygen generates free radicals, these radicals reacts with fat, proteins, lipids and DNA. Our body contains antioxidents (Vitamins etc,) which helps to maintains balance between demand and supply of oxygen. For long time, these free radicals increases so high that these antioxidents couldn't neautralise the radicals. These leads to damage of lungs and your eyes also.
So we need oxygen to help us get energy from our food. We might also need a little extra if we’re sick in hospital, or if we’re an astronaut or deep-sea diver. But too much oxygen can harm us.
