Biogetica Emphysema kit
Posted: 01-26-08 11:06am

Has anyone heard if this? Has anyone used this? It is holistic.
I am very skeptical of shaman type remedies. I have never tried any of this, but I can't rule it out.
I have Emphysema and have shortness of breath often. Any exertion causes me a problem.
Chants, drum beats, yoga, and other so called spiritual methods are totally foreign to me. I have used traditional western medicine for 65 years. Changing to other methods would be a VERY big leap of faith for me.
Help me decide if holistic is right for me. Can I take this Biogetica Emphysema kit without going completely into chants, drum beats, Yoga, etc?

I am not familiar with this product. What I can say is that with emsphysema the alveolar sacs in the lungs are destroyed by scar tissue that is the result of damage to them. The sacs do not have the ability to transfer oxygen and carbon dioxide and they do not inflate/deflate effectively anymore.

I am skeptical that there is much out there that can reverse the damage. What is known to improve lung function is apples and pears. I do not remember the science behind this but it is true. My mom has emphysema and I talked to her pulmonologist about this and he confirmed this. Eat an apple a day - it really may keep the doctor away.
