Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I got half way through this book before I had to stop. So many of the claims in this book are completely not backed up by science at all. Cure scoliosis by breathing through your nose? Also breathing through your nose will also supposedly cure ADHD! Scientists have been baffled for decades and apparently all the patients had to do is nose breath. Give me a break. I tried to investigate several claims such as this gem: "In the 1980s, researchers with the Framingham Study, a 70-year longitudinal research program focused on heart disease, attempted to find out if lung size really did correlate to longevity. They gathered two decades of data from 5,200 subjects, crunched the numbers, and discovered that the greatest indicator of life span wasn’t genetics, diet, or the amount of daily exercise, as many had suspected. It was lung capacity." The sources cited for this claim do not AT ALL support what the author is suggesting. I could not find any mention that lung capacity has a greater impact on life span than exercise and diet. In fact even looking at the authors cited source, I couldn't even find the words "lung capacity" mentioned at all! The author even goes further to claim that breathing through your nose will improve your exercise performance. Somehow Olympic athletes all over the world have yet to crack this one... Usain Bolt and Courtney Dewaulter must be doing it wrong. I really wanted to like this book and learn something new, but there is soooo much unfounded bologna in here. It may be true that there are benefits to different breathing techniques, but the author has done an incredible job of hiding needles of truth in a hay pile of BS. You're better of skipping this one.
