asthma

[Guest guest]

Norine,Thanks for your comment about milk not producing mucous. That has been known foryears and yet the myth continues. Research established long ago that milk, contrary to producing mucous, tends to concentrate it so that if you have mucous you can expel pretty easily and quickly. Of course, this does not apply to everyone.The availability of digestible calcium from milk makes it an important source for many people, women especially who are more prone to Hashimoto's and other thyroid dysfunctions than men. If you aren't allergic to milk or have other sorts of negative responses there should be no reason to not include it in a healthy diet. I drink it often and have no excess mucous at all.Thanks again, Jackie--- On

Someone asked about asthma. One of the things I'm taking LDN for is asthma and allergies, both of which are autoimmune disorders. I also take Lobelia when I have difficulty breathing. I stopped taking Advair , etc. because I didn't like the purple blotches all over my arms that made me look like I had the Black Plague. It was embarrassing. Unfortunately, Lobelia is one of those rare herbs that has a toxic level. Personally, I never take more than 200 mgs. in a day. I like it because you don't have to take it all the time. It works in about 35 minutes and you can feel your lungs expand and allow you a full breath. I am hoping LDN will end the allergies and asthma completely, but I just started. Someone in the group said to avoid milk. That is old and incorrect information. Recent

studies at

a Texas University hospital showed that there is no increase in mucus because of milk. Also, people who happen to be hypothyroid as well, don't absorb calcium from any other source but milk. Allergic people actually need milk more than nonallergic people. If I had known this 30 years ago, I would not be wearing dentures now. I was told to avoid milk. My teeth crumbled and fell apart because the calcium was being pulled out of them to ensure an adequate amount in my blood. Recently, I read on Mercola.com that milk from Guernsey and Jersey cows is healthier than from Holstein, which is where most supermarket milk comes from. I can't remember why, but I'm sure it is in the archives. In my humble opinion, almost anything should benefit from LDN because I think there are only 2 basic types of illness: autoimmune chronic long-term and infectious short-term. All of the autoimmune ones are candidates for

LDN. Good luck, Norine

there are many other sources for calcium like thain(seasane

seeds pasta) brocoli and veg of green leaves.

Your problems with calcium comes probably from using levo or

other synthetic and not dessicated thyroid hormones.
