Zum Beispiel wird zumindest in der Zusammenfassung nicht zwischen Nasen- und Mundatmung unterschieden. Wie kann man von Schleimhäuten sprechen, ohne darauf einzugehen. Weiter steht das Nahrungsergänzungsmittel oft nicht helfen und nicht erforscht seien. Was ist denn mit dem sehr guten erforschten Creatin, wo die Mitochondrien nachweislich stärkt. Und wärmekälte, wo wiederum keine nachweislichen Vorteile bieten, wird wiederum umworben; sehr voreingenommen. Und was ist mit oxydativem Stress durch intensiven Sport? ...moderater Sport wird von den Medizinern überbewertet, intensiver Sport unterbewertet. etc.etc.etc.
Für mich eines von vielen halbpatzen Selbsthilfebüchern.
