Asthma Sufferers

[JohnyMac]

I have asthma. I am currently taking ADVAIR which really helps to keep my asthma under control. With that written it costs $245- for a 30 day dose when used twice a day like my prescription suggests. I only use it once a day though so I get 60 days out of it. 

Well I read the following on Survivalblog.com blog page and I am going to give it a try. I will let you know how it works out for me. In the meantime though, here is the article.
 

I would like to add some personal information to the interesting article on mushrooms. A few years ago my wife was diagnosed with asthma. We quickly learned that the standard medical treatment was not going to work for her.

Our friend at a natural foods store suggested she try a commercially available product called “Breathe”. The capsules contain a combination of mushrooms that apparently help to better or more completely utilize the available oxygen. What sold me was that high altitude climbers use these mushrooms when training for their climb in the thin air.

My wife began to experience dramatic relief from her asthmatic condition, and it was a true blessing to use the Creation for healing. I have never experienced respiratory problems but decided to try the product myself, looking for an edge. At the time I was in my mid 50’s and running a construction project, converting an historic three-story walk-up hotel into condos (really tiny condos). Carrying a load of tools up every day was a real chore, from the start. We all had to pitch in, as these tools included large saws, compressors, et cetera. We were all winded after the first ascent. Once I began my mushroom regimen, I experienced immediate respiratory improvement. After a few days I was passing my crew on the way down catching their breath on the first landing. They were guys half my age. I knew I could DIY with these capsules, so I began search out the best prices I could find. Turns out they were right here in Ohio. They have since moved to Oregon but other than location, nothing has changed re: service and efficiency and still organic. I have no interest in this company other than promoting a small business with a good product. I would suggest trying the “Breathe” product to make your own assessment and then take it where you will.

I order 1# bags of powder and cap them myself.
Reishi
Cordyceps
Maitake
Shiatake
Also, you might want to study up on Suhirotake mushrooms for mitigation of the effects of radiation.
Mushroom Harvest has a good web site. Here is their ph#: 360-452-4258

I have COPD and also use Advair, the 500/50. Did you try the mushroom capsules yet, if so how did they work for you? 

[JohnyMac]

Sorry JoJo I have not tried them yet.

It's on the never ending "to do list."

No ya don't.  Have an abscess in your brain, get 4-5 tablespoons of pus removed by an excellent neurosurgeon, spend 13 days in the hospital and 28 days with an IV in your arm so you can do an antibiotic dose through it every day.

30 months later have a seizure and go into full cardiac arrest (1 block from ER door) when you are riding with your wife and sister (RN) to the ER for some unusual chest pain that is not what is usually associated with cardiac issues.  You know this due to about 20 years EMT stuff with a volunteer fire department.  Get 2 stints in your chest and ICU for 5 days.

Do that gents and you will quickly find out the important things in life and realize there are dayum few things that need done right now.  About everything will last till you get to it an hour or day from now.  Trust me gents, been there, done that.

Well Nemo, that sucks!

Looks like you have a guardian angel looking over your shoulder.

Yeah, I think I am on #4 or 5 of the 9.  Gonna use 'em all before I go.  No sense wasting a couple.
