"CO2 is Good and Nitric Oxide is Bad For You" - Was Ray Peat Right?

We're taught we breathe in oxygen, which gives us life, and breathe out Carbon Dioxide (CO2), which is a waste product. But is that true? Elwin Robinson discusses Dr Ray Peat's understanding of CO2, that it's an essential nutrient, without which we would quickly die, and the less we have, the less healthy we are.

Elwin also discussed how we got duped into thinking that nitric oxide is the main gas we need to dilate our blood vessels and reduce our blood pressure, when CO2 is actually a much safer way of achieving this.
