Researchers now report that supplementation with fish oil has shown to reduce asthma symptoms in children with long-term bronchial asthma. One study involved 29 children between the ages of 8 and 14 years who had suffered from asthma for an average of 10 years and had at some point been admitted to the hospital. Some children in the study were chosen to receive fish oil capsules, and others received capsules (olive oil) three times daily, for slightly less than a year.

The amount of fish oil given to the children varied, and was measured according to their body weight. After the therapy, the asthma score, a measure of the severity and frequency of attacks, had dropped from an average of 21 to an average of 6 in the group of children who had been given the fish oil group, but with no significant change in the group of children that had been given the olive oil.

The risk reduction for asthma attacks persisted even after taking into consideration other risk factors like their parents suffering from asthma, or smoking, and early respiratory infections.

Consumption of non-oily fish and canned fish did not appear to reduce the incidents of asthma attacks.

Fish oil contains the two omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA, and docosahexaenoic acid DHA. Researchers have stated speculation that EPA can prevent asthma, or may reduce its severity by lessening airway inflammation.

Some studies have shown that populations with a high intake of fish oils have fewer occurrences of inflammatory diseases like asthma.

Omega 3’s have been studied in inflammatory conditions apart from asthma and have shown benefits.

This is why I hope that there will be continued interest in fish oils and how, when added to the diet, help with asthma. Some studies have shown that lung function test results improved to the level below where exercise induced asthma is diagnosed, that the amount of bronchodilator medication use was decreased, and that the levels of inflammatory markers in sputum was reduced.

So the studies’ conclusions show that fish oil may be a potentially helpful non drug treatment for asthma, especially exercise induced asthma.

Since it is known that omega 3 oils help strengthen the integrity of cell walls, and help heal cellular tissues, it makes sense that giving your family omega 3 oils would improve chances for optimum results with family health.

Omega 6 fats are also good fats, but you need to make sure you eat omega 3 fats as well. Because fish contain industrial contaminants, supplementation with purified fish oil is a good idea. You can help your asthma, and address other inflammatory or potentially inflammatory conditions. Inflammation is aging!

Asthma is now becoming one of the major health conditions affecting people around the world; each year sees further increases in the number of people affected. For sufferers of asthma, this chronic condition can be very serious as they have difficulty breathing when their air passages react adversely to atmospheric and other allergens. Respiratory conditions often affect the daily life of anyone who suffers with them and severe attacks can even lead to death.

Constantly checking on their condition is one of the most important steps for an asthma sufferer. Depending on the condition, there are three main stages for treatment and they are:

*The avoidance of attacks

*Relief medication for minor attacks

*Medical treatment for more serious attacks

Fortunately for patients with only the mild version of the condition, a Bronchodilator can be used to provide short term relief; fortunately, for a large number of asthmatics no other medication other than this is necessary.

Other medication is available for patients who have frequent but mild attacks such as a mastcell stabilizer or leukotriene modifier. Oral glucocorticoids have to be used for the unfortunate asthma patients who have more serious and severe attacks. A standard reliever or ‘Bronchodilator’ will still be used in addition to any other medication they have been prescribed. Asthmatics should also identify the triggers that cause allergic reactions that are often associated with the condition and find ways to reduce or eliminate them. This condition is very strongly associated with air pollution, which causes the condition to worsen in people who suffer breathing related conditions.

Medications available from over the counter and prescribed by the doctor can be very useful but should not be relied upon alone; serious side effects can be caused by long term use of these medications and the stronger the treatment, the worse the problems can be, for example:

*Fatigue

*Occasional dizziness

*Impotence

*Feelings of despair

*Damage to vital organs including the liver

Pharmaceutical drugs are formulated to suppress the inflammatory states of the body but more people are now using natural, or alternative medicines which treat the cause of the respiratory condition instead. The purpose of the medication is to settle the body\’s hyperactivity which is caused as a result of the allergic reaction. It also helps soothe the symptoms by using a catalyst. The catalysts contained in the natural medications are different as they do not have the side-effects so reduce the stress on the system naturally.

Now yoga is being used as a natural alternative to medication as some yoga disciplines are focused on breath control which many asthma sufferers find beneficial to their condition and overall well-being. Nutritional supplements, acupuncture and good diet will help improve the immune response and the overall health of the patients. A good nutrient rich diet will also help improve the immune system but the importance of the asthma patient managing their condition should not be underestimated.

Asthma is no longer a chronic condition, particularly in the realm of clinically proven alternative and nutritional health therapies. It can be knocked out flat and naturally in a matter of days

The condition of asthma is an effect of the inflammation of your bronchial tubes, the air passages of your lungs, which then become narrower causing you difficulty to breathe.

The cause behind the causes.

The cause behind the causes, has by and large a direct or positive correlation with the advent of highly processed foods/beverages and the attendant artificial wicked additives therein.

Add to that the forced poisoning of your bloodstream via modalties such as whooping cough vaccinations for which evidence abounds as a cause of asthma.

Industrial pollution is also a culprit, with toxic effluents and discharges that irritate your membranes. By the way, industry is a must for any community to be viable. It is the primitive toxic technology that is the problem, having deceptively suppressed clean technologies that are more efficient and indeed clean. To example, have you ever heard of Nikola Tesla? He is the scientific inventor genius of all time, and to this day his functional inventions are still suppressed. Your authors at this site are not at all surprised that there are major major institutions that have began to deny that he existed.

What about Royal Raymond Rife? Carey Reams? Trevor Constable?

Knocks out asthma naturally.

Writing in the journal of the Australian Naturopathic Practitioners and Chiropractors Association, Dr. Chris Reynolds,MD was disarmingly frank about being surprised at the effectiveness of an herbal extract in knocking out asthma.

“Having never prescribed an herbal medication during my twenty five years as a medical doctor, the efficacy and broad spectrum activity of this product surprised me. The manufacturer appears to have achieved an important medical breakthrough”.

Australia takes the lead with the highest incidence of asthma in the world, with one out of four of the children there having trouble breathing. To their rescue is a remarkable new natural preparation by a private research entity, an effort that now knocks out asthma and no side effects at all.

In numerous cases, asthmatics have as a result thrown away their inhalers after a few weeks, sparing themselves the dangers of steroid medications. The natural preparation at the foot of such a stir Down Under(i.e.Australia) is an extract of Secale Cereale, which you know as ryegrass. This completely clinically safe and pleasant tasting extract is administered under the tongue(sublingual) at three drops two or three times daily, allowing the active ingredients to be absorbed directly via the mucous membrane of the mouth, bypassing the digestive system.

Adult asthmatics are throwing away medications within three weeks of taking the extract, while the children are very interestingly enjoying a much faster recovery.

Broad spectrum positive effects.

Clinical reports indicate that asthma is just one of the many conditions that this natural extract knocks out. Add to that, flying colors success with allergies, influenza, chronic fatigue syndrome, diabetes, bacterial-fungal-viral infections, even multiple sclerosis.

As you have already learned, the first doctor to use this extract in clinical practice is Dr. Chris Reynolds, MD; with hundreds of now very happy patients.

Not too far away, the medical-core types at John Hunter Hospital in Newcastle (Australia) could not believe what they were hearing about this natural extract marvel. They put the extract to the test, against asthma. Within days, the reports out of the hospital were of the order of “extremely promising” results.

And here is what the manufacturer of the extract said, as a follow up comment about reports from the hospital, “Such strictly supervised medical testing of natural herbal remedies only happens when the evidence of their success has reached a level that the conservative medical profession can no longer ignore”.

Reader, that means the extract is indeed a breakthrough that knocks out asthma naturally and no side effects whatsoever. Isn’t Mother Nature infinitely amazing? Hippocrates in 400 BC put it thusly, Nature makes the cure, the doctor’s job is merely to aid nature.

Could you believe it, there are at least 17 (seventeen) million Americans with asthma. If you know anyone of them , kindly invite them to this site.

Where to get the extract.

There is a direct link to this clinically safe and proven natural extract, in the last paragraph of this post.

From asthma to allergies.

Philip Princetta,D.C; from Atlanta in the state of Georgia has documented very impressive results with his asthma and allergy patients, “The southeast of the USA including Georgia, is a well known allergy enclave. Even my worst allergy patients responded very well to the drops, that cut down allergy reactions by over fifty percent this past spring”

Breakthrough reports from the clinic.

Dr. Reynolds now takes you inside his clinical experience with the extract:

Colds and Flu symptoms frequently disappear within hours of administration.

Diabetics both insulin-dependent and non-insulin dependent, report lower blood-glucose levels and a reduction in insulin requirements

Hayfever and allergic rhinitis, even severe chronic cases, improve rapidly,often within minutes of administration. Rapid drainage of congested sinus passages relieves sinus headaches.

In chronic fatigue syndrome, symptoms disappear within ten days. Please reader, that also includes the Gulf war syndrome.

Patients with multiple sclerosis experience a dramatic reduction in fatigue, and fewer and less severe relapses.

Asthmatics are frequently able to discontinue prescribed medications, after using the natural extract for a few weeks.

Feedback from around the world.

Clinical feed-back from around the world, reports dramatic improvements with chronic hepatitis, herpes infections and even with the HIV/AIDS infections.

Dr. Reynolds again, The extract appears to be a powerful immuno-modulator. It is inexpensive, pleasant to take and administration is simple. It could replace many medications and their deadly side-effects, and cure the multitudes

Needless to mention, is it not, that big-pharma is fouling self over this, big time, because the extract cannot be patented.
