What is Nitrox?
Nitrox is simply compressed air
that contains a higher Oxygen content than normal
scuba tanks. While the air you breathe is
about 21% Oxygen and 79% Nitrogen, Nitrox is about
36% Oxygen and 64% Nitrogen.
The decreased amount of Nitrogen
in your bloodstream is what helps keep you from
getting "The Bends" and the increased Oxygen helps
you feel less tired at the end of your dive.
