Does normal respiration increase with age?

If you are under 40 then yes to a degree.But your breathing also has to do with activeness and whether or not you have any respiratory illnesses. As you reach your fifties or so ( if you are less active) your respiratory rate will gradualy decline. Don't confuse difficulty breathing with respiratory rate. If you find it difficult to inhale schedule an appointment to see your doctor.
