Oxygen Deficiency: The Silent Health Crisis No One Talks About
Wilson Tan — Oxygen Alchemist, Founder @ OxyTap
Wilson Tan is the founder and CEO of OxyTap, leading a revolution in health and wellness with the world’s first oxygen-infused water solution. His innovative technology combats oxygen deficiency, enhancing cognitive and physical performance. By optimizing well-being through oxygen supplementation, Wilson empowers individuals to elevate their vitality sustainably. Experience how OxyTap can redefine your health journey.
Singapore, a newly designated blue zone famed for longevity, inspired the creation of oxytep, a revolutionary oxygen supplementation system addressing oxygen-depleted urban water. Drawing from experiences in defense, marine ecosystems, and water treatment, oxytep produces customizable, highly concentrated nano-oxygen water (25-45 ppm) without cartridges, enhancing cellular absorption and combating chronic diseases rooted in hypoxia. Clinical cases show rapid pain relief, improved healing, reduced medication dependency, and cognitive boosts, making oxytep a foundational tool for biohackers, athletes, and health professionals seeking to optimize oxygen levels for vitality and recovery.
"Let's start the oxygen revolution. Liberate your body with oxygen and let's create this together to change the world. Increase oxygen to enable your cells to absorb nutrients better and supercharge your routine. Oxygen is the foundation of everything."
Summary
- Singapore is recognized as one of six blue zones worldwide, emphasizing culture and environment for longevity. - Oxygen plays a critical role in health, yet urban water is often low in oxygen due to filtration and piping. - Oxygen-deprived cells can become cancerous; boosting oxygen in water may inhibit cancer growth and aid healing. - Oxytep is a sustainable, cartridge-free oxygen supplementation system that increases dissolved oxygen in water up to 45 ppm. - Higher oxygen levels can relieve pain, aid chronic illness recovery, improve focus, energy, and overall cell nutrient absorption.

Entrepreneur unveils revolutionary oxygen water technology at European health summit
Singapore-based innovator claims oxygen deficiency is behind many chronic diseases
At the HOLOLIFE Summit 2025 Europe in Tallinn, Estonia, entrepreneur Wilson Tan presented what he calls "the world's first oxygen supplementation system" to address what he describes as a silent health crisis affecting urban populations worldwide.
Speaking to an audience of health enthusiasts and biohackers on Friday, Tan, the founder and CEO of OxyTap, explained how urban water supplies typically contain depleted oxygen levels – a condition he believes contributes to numerous chronic health conditions.
"Sixty percent of the world's chronic diseases have roots in low oxygen," Tan told attendees at the three-day summit. "Increasing oxygen naturally can help cure them."
From defence to health innovation
Tan shared a personal journey that led him from the defence industry to health innovation, sparked by his mother's diagnosis with acute myeloid leukaemia. This experience, combined with his background in marine life support systems and water treatment, informed his understanding of oxygen's critical role in biological systems.
"Deprive a cell of thirty-five percent of its oxygen for forty-eight hours and it will become cancerous," Tan said, referencing the work of Nobel Prize winner Otto Warburg.
According to Tan, Singapore's recent designation as one of six global "blue zones" – areas where people live significantly longer than average – has partly resulted from the country's innovative approach to technology and health, including water treatment.
Technology without cartridges or refills
The OxyTap system, demonstrated during the presentation, creates water with dissolved oxygen levels of 25-45 parts per million (ppm) – significantly higher than typical bottled or tap water, which Tan claims often contains less than 7 ppm.
Unlike traditional filters or dispensers, the system uses platinum and titanium alloy technology to separate hydrogen and oxygen from water molecules, returning nano-sized oxygen particles that Tan claims are more easily absorbed by cells.
"It needs zero refills, is sustainable, and does not use cartridges. It makes its own oxygen from water itself," Tan explained.
Anecdotal health benefits
Throughout his talk, Tan shared several case studies of individuals who reportedly experienced health improvements after using the oxygenated water, including a woman who regained mobility after three years of disability following Covid-19, and a 90-year-old man who reduced his blood pressure medication.
"After three years of disability, oxygen supplementation helped a lady regain the use of her leg in just fifteen minutes," he claimed.
Tan also suggested benefits for those without chronic conditions, including improved concentration and energy levels.
"Oxygen increases neuroplasticity and concentration, helping students and those with ADHD focus better during exams," he said.
Scientific caution
While the presentation was enthusiastically received by the biohacking community present at the summit, it's worth noting that comprehensive clinical trials validating these specific claims were not presented during the talk.
The field of dissolved oxygen therapy remains an area where scientific consensus is still developing, with researchers continuing to investigate potential benefits and mechanisms of action.
Future of health optimisation
Tan positioned the technology not as a cure-all but as a foundation for other health interventions. "Oxygen is the basis; without oxygen supplementation, your body won't absorb nutrients or medicines well," he said.
The HOLOLIFE Summit, running until Sunday in Estonia's capital, features numerous presentations on emerging health technologies and practices aimed at optimising human performance and longevity.
For Tan, who invited attendees to visit his exhibition booth for demonstrations, the mission extends beyond business. "Let's start the oxygen revolution," he concluded. "Liberate your body with oxygen. Let's create change together."
