If You Are Wheezing, Coughing, Sneezing or Feeling Foggy, Read This…
Have you ever noticed that when you’re under stress your body naturally restricts its breathing and you become tight and focused, usually on what’s bothering you and whether to get away or to resist.
Eventually your breathing returns to normal but it’s largely a process that you don’t even think about and barely notice. If you’re like most people, only when breathing is difficult, during exercise or a chest infection, do you start to consider it.
But like our heartbeat and digestion and so many hidden processes in the body, breathing is essential to life. In fact, it is the basis of every human cell’s life and without it there would be no heartbeat or digestion. And when it is optimised...
It Makes Us Feel Inspired, Alert and
Better at Handling Stress
Every day, we breathe in about 500 cubic feet of air to live. Our respiratory system is like a hollow tree growing downwards in our chest from our mouth, with its branches spreading out in our lungs and ending in tiny sacs where oxygen is absorbed. This oxygen is picked up in the blood and taken to all the other cells in the body that need it.
The respiratory tract is lined with mucus and is a constant interface between our bodies’ cells and the outside world. It has to cope with all sorts of irritants, be it allergenic pollens or dust, bacteria and viruses, pollution or perfumes. When it can’t manage, we wheeze, cough, sneeze and feel foggy, tired or light-headed.
Lung Support is formulated with the three main vitamins known to have high antioxidant activity: vitamins A, C and E. Synergistically combined, they protect the lining of lung and windpipe tissue from some of the wear and tear that comes from constant contact with oxygen and inflammatory agents.
Actual lung tissue from bovine also goes into Lung Support. This may sound strange but it is safe, pharmaceutically controlled and healthy; the same bovine tracheas are also used to produce medical products such as chondroitin sulfate, which is used in eye surgery and supplements for joint pain. Bovine lung tissue contains the same chemicals our lung tissue needs for repair, elasticity, lubrication and to fight inflammation.
Goldenseal, our native herb used by both Cherokees and Founding Fathers, contains the antimicrobial chemical berberine to protect against bacteria. Berberine also dampens the inflammation associated with asthma and tunes the immune system, making it fight infection better rather than over-reacting to allergens, which is a common cause of a tight chest.
Other natural herbs, such as Bupleurum – a traditional Chinese liver tonic prized for its anti-inflammatory effects – and Star Anise, which is not only used in the kitchen and Asian medicine but also to make the antiviral drug Tamiflu – are present in Lung Support. Apricot seed, an Asian treatment for bronchitis and emphysema, is added to act as an cough suppressant and expectorant.
With a back-up of silica and magnesium, which help keep tissue and muscles smooth and strong, and supportive homeopathic cells salts, Lung Support is the one essential natural medicine that helps you breathe easy.
