I don't strictly speaking think this author is really especially qualified to make some of the judgements and conclusions he does. His whole experiment seems steeped in confirmation bias and some of the conclusions seem a little stretched. This is definitely an under-researched field and Nestor invites the reader to think about things most people generally do not. But I would feel less skeptical if James Nestor had a prior career history in biology or physiology or pulmonology or medicine in any capacity instead of "just" being a journalist.
