Guest guest Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Althea...would you please send info to me regarding LDN and COPD. I would be most grateful. My doctor won't prescribe it to me unless I provide him some information on the use of LDN as it pertains to me. Thank you so much. -Biz biztekmom@... > > Jill, > > People take LDN for COPD where they need oxygen and it seems to help. > > So, I am not surprised to hear that you may have had some help with breathing strength. > > My best, Aletha > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also not being able to take a deep breath is caused by your body running on its fight/flight nervous system, which is caused by stress, including the stress of being unhealthy. I recommend you do deep breathing exercises to help alleviate that feeling of not breathing right. As you do the exercise you will become more and more able to take deep breaths: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/breath4.php All the best, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Hi Bee, Ok Bee, will do on the deep breathing exercise as best i can. I seem to recall having some issues in the past of not being able to get enough air. Thanks again... Caine.... > +++Hi Caine.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 I had the same problem with breathing. I had to do it many times before it improved. regards senthil On 23 February 2010 09:59, cainesross <cainesross@...> wrote: > > > > Hi Bee, > > Ok Bee, will do on the deep breathing exercise as best i can.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 I also have this problem. I have read it may be thyroid related. It is called " air-hunger " . I also have the frequent yawning. When i have it I take vitamin e and it seems to help. Phyllis > > I had the same problem with breathing.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Hi Caine When i did the deep breathing i was having tough time. it appeared that i can only do shallow breathing no matter what i tried. But i persisted with the deep breathing and after a while it improved. Gradually i can do deep breathing a number of times. So please persist with deep breathing and it gets better. regards senthil On 23 February 2010 13:30, cainesross <cainesross@...> wrote: > > > > Hi Senthil, > > Ok thanks for the info, that helps to know someelse has experienced > this.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Hi Phyllis, Thanks so much for sharing your situation. Although i dont have the yawning i dont feel air hunger. How long have you been air hungry. How much Vit E do you take for this. Thanks... Caine... > > > > I had the same problem with breathing.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 My situation feels like I don't get a full breath of air. It is not shortness of breath. Sometimes I consciously yawn to get that full breath. I have had it bad since my candida got bad. I think it is to do with the thyroid. It is getting much much better and only happens now if I make a mistake on my diet. Just one extra vitamin e helped me. Phyllis > > > Hi Phyllis, > > Thanks so much for sharing your situation.

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Bee and all, I have been reading all of this discussion about " deep breathing, " and I was keeping silent because I know Bee's recommendations for this. But I simply must put this out there. My 6yo daughter has asthma, and in mid-November, she got seriously ill. She wheezed for 2 1/2 months solid, and we did everything we could, holistically and even pharmaceutically (which we normally don't do.) She finally, finally is nearly fully recovered thanks to a breathing techneque by Buteyko. You can google and even youtube for more information about this. But, Buteyko says that yawning, sighing, and deep breathing is actually *opposite* of what you want to do for good lung function. It all has to do with your levels of carbon dioxide in your lungs. There are exercises to do to help your body " reset " to having the appropriate levels. Anyway, I urge you all to check this out, and you too Bee. I think you may even change your recommendations based on this. This technique is also supposed to help with anxiety and panic attacks, among other things. Cheers!

Guest guest Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 Hi Phyllis, Thanks for info Phyllis cause thats exactly how i feel, and i conciously yawn as well to achieve my full breath. Im glad yours improved, and hopefully with time, and Vit E, and deep breathing mine will improve as well. Sentil if you read this i am gonna be persistant with my deep breathing too. Thanks again to both of you. Much appreciated... Caine... > > > > > > Hi Phyllis, > > > > Thanks so much for sharing your situation. Although i dont have the > > yawning i dont feel air hunger.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 I know how you guys feel. Ever since I started the diet and antifungals back in December, I've been having trouble breathing. I constantly have this tightness in my chest, especially when I lay down. I'm practically living on my inhaler. > > > > My situation feels like I don't get a full breath of air. It is not shortness of breath.

Shortness of breath means you are breathing very shallow, which makes you breath faster, so that's why you feel you can't get a full breath of air. > > > I have had it bad since my candida got bad. I think it is to do with the thyroid. It is getting much much better and only happens now if I make a mistake on my diet. > > +++See my reply to Phyllis which explains why the thyroid isn't the cause. > > +++It is understandable you'd have breathing problems when you make a mistake on your diet because candida will be overgrowing more, so it will be producing more carbon dioxide (C02) (and toxins), increasing the blood levels. > > Carbon dioxide is what we breath out during respiration - in with the good air, and out with the bad air. Higher levels of carbon dioxide are called blood gas, which can build up in the body, which speeds up respiration making us breath more to offset the increased C02, and it activates the fight/flight nervous system, so that's why deep breathing exercises help. > > All the best, Bee > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
