Science has proven that Wim Hof’s breathing control and cold training methods can significantly increase energy levels, improve blood circulation, reduce stress, strengthen the immune system, strengthen the body, successfully fight against many diseases, relax the body and strengthen autonomy through steady and deep breathing The nervous system trains the contraction and expansion of blood vessels, thereby enhancing immunity, helping many people stay away from high blood pressure, diabetes, cancer, depression, etc. Although this book advocates that holding your breath is good for your health, scientific evidence shows that holding your breath for a long time may be possible It can cause damage to the brain, kidneys, and lungs.
