So anthroposophic lifestyles are less stressful than "normal lifestyles"? That seems to be an interesting result in itself.

- jvdh 15y agoBe careful there, they have done a study where they have concluded that lower stress levels are related to fewer allergies. And in a different study they have shown that kids following an antroposophic lifestyle also have fewer allergies than regular kids. Both results are correlation, which don't mean causation. And there is also no specific reason (yet) to say that low stress and antroposophy are correlated.
- Tichy 15y agoI thought at the end of the article it said that they did the allergy study on anthroposophic kids, that is, again they compared anthroposophic kids to other kids. Otherwise of course combining the two studies into that conclusion would be invalid.
