The average breathing rate for an adult is 12 to 20 times per minute. That means at a rate of 16 breaths per minute, a person is breathing 23,040 times per day! That's a lot of breaths, but only if you're healthy.
Various health conditions create problems with breathing such as asthma and COPD. Anxiety and viruses also make it hard to breathe.

The immune system is crucial to fighting off illness but is compromised when you have a respiratory disease. Breathing techniques and medication management help you improve your immune system, even when living with a chronic respiratory problem.
