Oxygen’s Journey Through Your Body

Your body moves oxygen through an incredible journey that happens every single second.

Oxygen enters your lungs through tiny air sacs called alveoli where it passes into your

red blood cells. These cells act like delivery trucks carrying oxygen through your blood

vessels. Your heart pumps this oxygen rich blood throughout your entire body

reaching every single cell. Once oxygen arrives at your cells it gets used to produce

energy that powers everything you do from thinking to moving. This whole process

repeats with every breath you take keeping you alive and energized. Your body is basically

running the most efficient delivery system ever designed moving billions of oxygen molecules
