Much of Peat's writing suggests that he thinks CO2 helps the body to better utilize oxygen:

He gives examples of how people at higher altitude are able to continue aerobic metabolism with oxygen in spite of lower oxygen concentrations in the air. Apparently the body accumulates more CO2 and this improves oxygen utilization.
In Peat's view, what happens when the body is broken and is relying on anaerobic metabolism / glycolysis for most of its energy needs. Would putting more oxygen into the cell not work because there is no CO2 waiting there to help utilize it? There are strategies for increasing oxygen inside the cell, such as taking hydrogen peroxide drops in water.
In Peat's view, how do you restart aerobic metabolism when it is broken?
