Not looking to be a troll but: I read the literature and I am certainly no Luddite, but in my own mind I am pretty definitive that I feel better after diving on nitrox than I do on air. And for the record, I also suffer less from CO2 headaches (I am a terrible skip breather).
I know, I know, I know. But what can I tell you. I feel what I feel.
I won't be at all shocked (in line with much of diving medicine) if in a few years someone produces a paper which says, you know what we thought we knew? Turns out we were wrong. It is a highly inexact science after all, and we are constantly revising the state of established knowledge. For me the anecdotals and my personal experiences stack up strongly against the published research.
YMMV.
