'It must be noted that the quality of the studies is very low,' the authors of a new review on the method wrote.
New research this week seems to throw cold water on the Wim Hof method, an endurance training technique that intentionally exposes people to frigid temperatures. The study, a review of the scientific literature, did find some evidence that the method could have anti-inflammatory properties, but did not find strong data supporting any other supposed benefits, such as better exercise performance.
” And even the positive results should be taken with a grain of salt, the authors noted, since most of the studies were judged to have a high risk of bias and were generally considered poor quality for various reasons, such as a small sample size and an inability to blind participants to whether they were using the method or not .
