I really enjoyed more of the personal studies and research he did and shared rather than the "evolution" narrative, as well as at the end of the book in his disclaimer. I'm not so sure he really needed to put in the medical narrative that antibiotics & vaccines are an important part of a "healthy" lifestyle... but hearing about his experiences in regards to the different breathing techniques & experiments he did that was good info.

This book is a mixed bag. On the one hand, the whole breathing-thing is really interesting and potentially life-changing. Plus, I really liked the style and storytelling. On the other hand, though, some of the explanation and stories sound almost un-scientific, or at least hard very to believe. So, I am not quite sure what to make of it.
