In this episode Nellie Benner inhales laughing gas (N2O – Nitrous Oxide). She experiences a mild trip and is out of it for a second. USAGE: Are you about to use a balloon? Keep the following things in mind: - Use laughing gas from a balloon, never from a cartridge or dispenser. That will avoid frostbite, choking and lack of oxygen. - Make sure you can sit or lay down when you use laughing gas. - Don’t use it too often! Frequent usage can cause brain damage. - Never use laughing gas when you’re having a cold. Laughing gas expands in air, so your eardrum could pop. Besides earache it can also lead to permanent hearing damage. - Mixing nitrous oxide with alcohol is very dangerous as it can increase the risks named below. DOSAGE: 1 cartridge is good for 1 balloon. After 4 inhalations all the gas from the balloon is absorbed in your body. A trip from a balloon with 1 cartridge of laughing gas is short and lasts for about 1 minute. RISKS: - Nausea and dizziness; - Severe headache; - Passing out; - Freezing of lungs, lips, nose and vocal cords; - Heavy regular use of nitrous oxide can lead to deficiency of vitamin B12 and to a form of anaemia; - Heavy regular use can lead to brain damage and neurological disorders.
