Common diseases associated with human breath

Common diseases and disorders associated with abnormal human breath: In case the rate of oxygen intake as well as that of carbon dioxide removal is not matched by the delivery of the oxygen and removal of carbon dioxide, a disproportion happens which might give way to respiratory anomalies linked with grave diseases like pneumonia (inflammation of the lungs), emphysema (excessive and abnormal accumulation of air in the lungs because of a reduction of the area of the lung membranes), heart failure, anemia (lack of red blood cells in the blood, resulting in insufficient oxygen), as well as asthma (narrowing of the bronchi) (Wang et al., 2008). All the aforementioned conditions are the outcomes of an imbalance known as Hypoxia also termed as anoxia. Hypoxia implies a condition when air is devoid of oxygen which happens when the cells of the body receive inadequate amount of oxygen.
