The holistic approach to asthma and COPD

Nearly 13 million Americans have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a term that includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Asthma is a common inflammatory disease of the lungs. Nearly 242 million people worldwide suffer from asthma.

COPD and asthma involve shortness of breath and difficulty breathing. Asthma also involves the production of excess mucus that blocks the airways in the lungs. Asthma is often thought to be an allergic reaction. Causes include smoking and the ingestion and absorption of toxins from the air, food, water, beverages, body products, cleaning products, medications and vaccines, and dust.

The number one holistic remedy for asthma and COPD is to stop smoking. Cigarette smoke contains many toxins (ie chemicals and heavy metals) that go directly to the cells in the lungs and to the cells in the bronchial tubes.

Holistic asthma remedies include nettles, a natural antihistamine along with turmeric, curcumin, ginger, and tart cherry juice for their anti-inflammatory properties. Nettle is good for allergies in general because it is a natural antihistamine. It will help reduce the allergic reaction that triggers asthma. The other natural products and supplements will reduce inflammation, which is a problem with asthma. Other anti-inflammatory supplements to take include bromelain, fish oil, krill oil, flaxseed oil, and hemp oil.

For both asthma and COPD, eat an organic vegan diet (fresh whole vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, and whole grains) and avoid dairy because dairy causes excessive mucus production.) Eat plenty of dark green leafy vegetables like spinach, kale, and arugula. Drink diatomaceous earth and earth water and apple cider vinegar to detoxify the cells.

For both asthma and COPD, take NAC SSKI (potassium iodide) supplements. They help increase glutathione levels in lung tissue and stop oxidative stress in the respiratory tract. Other important antioxidants to take would include high doses of vitamin C, green tea/green tea extract, and Co-Q 10/Ubiquinol.

Cordyceps mushroom, gingko biloba, comfrey, and olive leaf extract are natural supplements that help with COPD.

Oxygen/ozone therapy is helpful. Drink plenty of pure water. It is full of oxygen. Use an ozone machine to put more oxygen molecules in your water. Do deep breathing exercises and exercise daily to help open your bronchial tubes.

To open the airways and remove mucus, do the following: Put eucalyptus essential oil, peppermint, and menthol in a pot of boiling water. Put a towel over your head and inhale the steam from the water through your nose. You can also use tea tree oil, clove oil, oregano oil, and frankincense essential oil. Put them on a broadcast and inspire them. They also help relieve breathing difficulties.
