As a matter of fact it helps me breathe a lot better than I normally would. The only reason you people want ban it is because there are other idiots out there that don’t know how to follow the directions on the bottle. It’s a risk just like any other. Please do not ban it or I will die. Thank you, Marcus Schumpert United Sports Technologies Product Engineer mschumpert@ustgolfshaft.com
