How would this be true for planes? They're constantly being fed fresh air from the engines during flight.

It's true for every other mode of transport but objectively false for planes in flight . However, I'd be curious to see the average when including time sitting on the ground, taxiing, etc., and how that much lower speed affects circulation.

You’ll have lower CO2 levels in a dense urban housing with windows open, than in a home in the middle of nowhere with the windows closed.

Is this saying if you have blood pressure problems you might also…

You’re almost there. It’s saying that you’re at risk for central diabetes insipidus known to cause abnormal thirst and urination in like the next paragraph. What I find hilarious is that the whole first paragraph is about things being named after scientists and then there’s an author named Gesundheit…now I need to look that up.

That’s a fascinating introduction - they are concerned that dual (!) name of the molecule might be hiding all of its functions! It looks like naming thing is not just a problem for programmers.

When I was diagnosed with a neurological condition that was having mostly physical symptoms, the first-line defense was antidepressants. So-named because they were developed to relieve depression, but really what they do is inhibit absorption of serotonin and/or norepinephrine leaving more free in the body to act on myriad different bodily functions. In my case, it actually caused serious digestion issues. It really…
