Brain Eating Zombie of the Day

David K. Randall

Generation Apnea

By blaming evolution and the shape of the throat, this man perpetuates the Genetic Fallacy:   "Some people are just structurally unsound".

That clever diversion leaves "apnea specialists" free to ignore the infections and allergies which actually cause apnea, and treat you for the symptoms.   The infections and allergies which also cause obesity and hypertension.  Imagine that.  Instead they give you those lovely machines to force the air through your inflamed nose and mouth tissues.  Those machines that breed microbes and dry the tissues and perpetuate further inflammation and need for the machine...

I snored my entire life.
Until I gave up gluten.

And my mouth and nose and throat are all still short and malformed.   Go figure.

(This guy has a new book out on sleep.  It seems to be doing the review circuit.   I'm not going to comment on all the topics or articles.   SSDD )
