“I tried both for 6 months each and stuck with buteyko. Haven't had anything more than a cold for less than 24 hours in the 3 years since.”
“1. Breathing techniques, breathing correctly, and eventually some extra-oxygenation through H2O2 or Ozone water;”
“Buteyko is more of a lifestyle breathing change than an exercise and I have reaped amazing benefits from it. Since I've started 2 years ago I have not been sick”
