Jim's Review
🐛
Jim breathes through his skin (worm perks), so he was skeptical at first. But Nestor's deep dive into nasal breathing, ancient techniques, and modern respiratory science is genuinely fascinating. The self-experiments are wild, and Jim now judges every mouth-breather he sees. Four worms — it'll change how you think about something you do 25,000 times a day.
