So why breathe through the nose? There's several reasons why we should be breathing through the nose. First, it cleanses the air particulates. Okay, so we have cilia, we have hairs that cleanse the particulates that come in. It pressurizes the air. In fact, breathing through your nose delivers 20% more oxygen to your tissues because of the pressurization. You'll always feel more resistance breathing in through your nose because of the pressurization process. You have ornate structures that, that are allowing that to happen. It moisture regulates the air. It temperature regulates the air. It lowers the activation of your immune system.
