Sure, please dissect my post. It is a small piece from a longer blog post, which is the non-scientific user friendly version of a 55 page meta-analysis.
Please read the post in it's entirety as well. Please keep in mind the goal of the thread. I am on here because I do not believe the OP needs to suffer asthma in ironmans. You appear to be on here to pick on me for trying to help someone. That is unfair, and low.
If I am presenting quackery (according to you), then maybe quackery isn't such a bad thing? After all, if you are not a quack - I am happy to be separated from the likes of you.
I am not suggesting use of some crazy oils, or herbal remedies, or even anything spiritual or anything in terms of alternative medicine at all actually.
Asthmatics breath too much. They loose too much water with each breath. I simply reversed that by reducing my breath and breathing through my nose, and becoming hydrated? I don't see the quackery?
Is it because I wanted to be a great athlete and refused to suffer from an illness that was obviously not necessary (which I realized because I did not suffer to it prior to a 3 month extreme heat exposure) and refuse to give up on my goals in life and sport?
Well if that makes me a quack - then I am very happy to be a quack. I am also even happier not to suffer from asthma. I am here to share my experience in hopes that to help another person. I gain nothing from that but the satisfaction of helping other people in need. Let me guess, that makes me a quack too?
Once again, what's your contribution to this thread?
