carbonic acid application improves blood flow and oxygen levels in lower limbs by up to 78%
Transcutaneous CO2 application increased the Ankle Brachial Index by 37% (p=0.001) one minute after treadmill walking, decreased ABI recovery time by 38% (p=0.002), increased systolic pressure of the great toe by 13% (p<0.0001), baseline pO2 by 20% (p=0.01), and vasomotion by 78% (p=0.001).
What this means for you
Better circulation in your legs and feet means more oxygen reaches your tissues — which most people feel as less fatigue, faster recovery after movement, and improved warmth in the extremities. In this finding, blood vessel activity nearly doubled and oxygen levels rose measurably, suggesting a meaningful circulatory response.
