Abstract

Currently, it is believed that the composition of the atmosphere of the ancient Earth was radically different from the composition of the modern one. In particular, it is believed that the atmosphere of the ancient Earth, unlike the modern one, was not only rich in carbon dioxide, but also completely free of gaseous oxygen. This, accordingly, means that the first terrestrial cells appeared in water bodies enriched with carbon dioxide and completely free of gaseous oxygen. At the same time, the fact that the first cells survived and eventually even transformed into highly organized life forms means that that these same bodies of water effectively protected cellular life forms from unwanted external factors such as changes in acidity. Based on the above considerations, it is shown here that these very protective properties of ancient bodies of water were due to the presence of carbon dioxide in them. However, it is shown here that it is precisely these protective properties acquired by carbon dioxide in the aquatic environment that are important for maintaining the well-being of modern people, especially those who are sensitive to the weather. Accordingly, all this creates a sufficiently clear basis for carboxytherapy. Thus, it is shown here that the therapeutic use of carbon dioxide by modern doctors is fully justified, as it allows patients to be more resistant to adverse external factors.

Keywords
