by: Mark Christopher Garrett ![]() If you are suffering from asthma, emphysema, COPD, or any other breathing disorder this article is a must read and could change your life. First let me clarify I am not a doctor, I have no medical degrees, and I am not doing this for a kickback from any third party company. I am a professional asthmatic, I've spent the last 2 decades volunteering at the Asthma and Allergy Center for drug studies. I wanted to be a part of something that would help people everywhere and change the future for better and healthier breathing treatments. I tested countless upon countless drugs, as well as some nano technology, some were good, some not so good, some down right terrible. For the past 5 years I have also been conducting homeopathic studies as well, again, some good, some not so good, some just horrendous. So, here is a compendium of what really works and what is just myth. Lets start with the obvious, currently all over the internet people are making strong claims regarding the use of H2O2 and it's healing prowess for clearing out the lungs and air passages. It has been my experience that the H2O2 method is lackluster, yes it offers some benefits, but they are small and the risk of overdosing is high. Most drink a glass of water in the morning before consuming any food with 8-12 drops of H2O2 added in. This is to be done for a week, people do this as a body cleansing and detoxing method. However I am more into permanent "Lifestyle" changes that transform into real results, it just takes a little longer to get there, but the results are true and permanent once there. So, with that said, I mixed purified fluoride free gallon jugs of water with a total of only 6 - 8 drops per gallon, this makes for a more stable drinking solution and the water is guaranteed extra clean and pure with the added H2O2. As a matter of fact some countries in Europe exclusively purify their public drinking water with H2O2 so I know it is safe, but was it effective for my severe asthma, . . . . not really, I did have minor benefits and for some one who is not as bad off as I am this may work fine, put it in a spray bottle and use as a spray mist instead of albuterol or other steroid based inhaling systems.
When I first started using nascent iodine as I found it was the best for the body to assimilate naturally, I had no idea about all of it's great attributes, I just wanted to detox some heavy metals, but wow, immediately my lungs and air passage ways cleared up, I thought it was a fluke, but the next day when I did my iodine dose, wow immediately my breathing became effortless, this was amazing, now I knew I need to find out more about this. It was interesting to find out that back in the day iodine was the preferred way to treat asthmatics, this blew me away, as I was never told this in the 2 decades I had been seeing my physician, either he really didn't know, or he was holding back information that can substantially change my life. However, with as much success as the iodine had for my asthma, I still needed to use my prescribed asthma medication as well, which meant to me in my mind that I had yet to find a total solution as I was still dependent on the expensive doctor prescribed body damaging corticosteroids.
I didn't want to just eat it as is, although that would be good, but before I broke the seal on a 5 pound jug I wanted to make sure I had a good use for it as I am used to honey crystallizing and granulating after it is exposed to oxygen. I waited about a week before I opened it and it was the most wasted week of my life, because after I opened it and took one bite of pure Florida Gold Tupelo Honey my lungs and air passages cleared up, . . . and then they cleared again, . . . and then later yet even more. Now unlike the other method that just allowed for easier breathing this, oh my god, not just allowed me to ingest deeper breaths than I had been capable of since I was a little kid, and not only that for the first time in what seems like forever I felt all my pore breathing, I could actually feel my entire body breathing, this was a sensation I had not had for a very, very long time. I am the type of asthmatic that when at the hospital emergency room with an I.V. and a blood oxygen level checker strapped on my finger, and I tell them, "I just don't feel like my body is getting any air" and they say, "but the machine says your blood oxygen level is a 96 Sir", sometimes I feel as if the Doctors do not understand what it is really like to feel the way we feel, to be energy-less, to breath easy but still not have air, it is horrible and I wouldn't wish this on anyone.
The last homeopathic remedy I stumbled across that had a huge impact on my breathing and over all living was adding probiotics to my diet. "Huh, whats that", was my first thought, I knew about antibiotics, but what the heck is a Probiotic? Well it seems our entire digestive system is filled with biotics, they start in the tummy and extend all the way through the intestinal track which is the largest part of the human body, very, very important for good over all health. At first I just went to the nutrition store and bought some over the counter probiotics, these came in capsule form and actually smelled really good, like berries. After doing some more online research on how and where to find probiotics naturally I found that natural "Greek" yogurt was loaded with them, this is best remembered as the sauce used for making really yummy gyros. I also opened up the probiotic capsules and dumped the contents into a small cup of Greek yogurt, this along with some fresh berries and banana slices are now my staple breakfast.
I am now enjoying playing with my son and my wife, she and him also benefit from my health and all of us are happier because of it, I wish I knew 20 years ago what I know now it would of saved 2 Decades of my life that I can never get back.
Also I would like to mention I have tried all the other so called natural remedies such as mint leaves, eucalyptus oils, etc, and while those and others do appear to make you breath better they are all short term fixes and do not cure the problem, the experts say there is no cure for asthma, and while this may be true permanent lifestyle changes can virtually eliminate asthma symptoms from your life entirely. One of the big things I had to deal with was night time asthma I would wake up every morning gasping for air, then I would clear out and this sometimes involved throwing up. Thanks to this lifestyle change I no longer have those horrible night time or morning symptoms, is my asthma cured?, . . . no, but do I currently suffer from asthma?, . . . NO! And the best part I wake up each day alive and vibrant and ready to go, go, go!!!
