The review article focuses on the importance of adequate oxygen levels in the body as cure and therapy for many ailments. It is known that hypoxia is the cause for cellular damage and if it can be applied to major patho-physiology’s, it can be observed that slow and chronic hypoxic conditions are the cause for most of the diseases. On the contrary, providing each cell of the body with proper oxygen may be helpful in maintaining the immunity of the body and therefore treating many disease conditions. This theory, if tested may show positive results in heart related diseases, neuronal disorders, stresses, digestive disorders and the unresolved cancer too. Slow decrease in the levels of atmospheric oxygen could be a reason to induce chronic hypoxia. According to Dr. Otto Warburg, a Noble laurate, a normal cell when deprived of oxygen, may get converted to a cancerous cell, whereas a cancerous cell cannot survive in aerobic conditions. If this part of his research be concentrated on, there could be fruitful results in the treatment of cancer. To maintain adequate levels of oxygen in the body, simple yogic breathing practices are helpful. And to maintain the adequate atmospheric oxygen, trees and plants which cleanse the atmospheric air are useful. Clinical surveys on volunteers who have been practicing regular breathing exercises can prove the fact that proper and concentrated respiration could prevent many diseases. Thus, supplementing breathing exercises along with the regular treatment for cancer patients could be helpful in alleviating cancer and other diseases.

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: ">As células de um organismo multicelular podem deixar de realizar seu metabolismo normal e se comportar de maneira desordenada, originando tumores e, posteriormente, se desenvolver para um câncer. Otto Warburg identificou que células tumorais apresentavam preferência pela via glicolítica em detrimento da fosforilação oxidativa (efeito Warburg). Não realizando esta via metabólica, a apoptose pode não ocorrer e as células se multiplicarem sem controle. Uma alternativa para essa situação vem sendo proposta com mais intensidade desde o início deste século, é o uso do ácido dicloroacético (DCA) como quimioterápico mais eficiente e menos invasivo para as células sadias. Este composto restabelece o controle do complexo piruvato desidrogenase (PDC) que participa do processo apoptótico em células normais. O tratamento de diversos tipos de câncer pode ser viabilizado pelo DCA, uma vez que estudos que propõem a administração oral dessa substância. </span>

Summary Krebs was born in Hildesheim (North Germany) and graduated (MD) from the University of Munich in 1923. He was assistant to Otto Warburg (1926–30) who taught tissue slicing and manometry which Krebs used to complete his three great works: The Detoxification of Ammonia (Freiburg im Breisgau 1933), The Degradation of Foods to provide Energy for Life (Sheffield 1937) and Gluconeogenesis (Oxford 1963). He was elected Fellow of the Royal Society of London (FRS) in 1947, Nobel Laureate in 1953 and KBE in 1958.
