What is Ingassing?
Ingassing refers to the process by which gases dissolve into the body’s tissues and blood during scuba diving. This process is crucial to understand because it affects how divers must manage their time underwater and the ascent to the surface to avoid serious health risks. The term “ingassing” is often used in conjunction with its counterpart, “outgassing,” which describes the release of gases from the body. Both processes are central to diving physiology and safety, playing a vital role in dive planning and execution.
