Nasal Respiration Entrains Human Limbic Oscillations and Modulates Cognitive Function

Short summary

Nasal breathing entrains electrical activity in human olfactory and limbic brain regions (piriform cortex, amygdala, hippocampus) at the slow rhythm of 0.16-0.33 Hz, with peak power during inspiration, and this synchronization enhances fear discrimination and memory retrieval.
