Abstracts of Relevant Scientific Studies

"...The problem is that there is never going to be a perfect study. Questions always remain unanswered no matter how many references you cite. And there are so many opposing theories that it would be virtually impossible to counter every one of them. I realize that I would never come to my own conclusions about accelerated metabolic aging if I had focused on studies rather than true science..... " Diana Schwarzbein, 1999

Studies published in peer-reviewed journals are pieces of evidence, the currency of modern science. Not all are equal in significance and their value depends on many factors. Unfortunately, few studies show simple, direct relations of lifestyle to asthma and allergic conditions. Only rarely does a single study prove something which a subsequent study cannot refute. It takes a number of studies to constitute a body of evidence which can lead to general acceptance. From there, the trail to practical treatment is long and winding.

Studies included here pertain, directly or indirectly, to categories including breathing, diet, hydration, sleep, physical conditioning, emotional attitudes, stresses, and other basic aspects of life. Practical application of these studies depends on interpretation; and any lifestyle modification must be weighed against costs and risks.

The lay reader need not be intimidated. Even without complete understanding, much can be learned.
