@nick52, Jet.com sells Clear lungs, by California law, a warning was added to this product. You may want to go to that site and look to the bottom right. Tell me what you think. I know about most of the herbal ingriedients, and know they are safe and effective, but I plan to look up the chemical compounds. FOLKS, not all herbal or over the counter products are safe at all times; they can combine badly with medications you are already taking for example. Always check with your physician before taking suppliments.
@windwalker, so yum!
Windwalker,
I have check the site Jet.com and saw the warning you are talking about. Ridgecrest Herbals, Inc can answer your concerns. 1-800-242-4649 or 1-801-978-9633.
I have used it and it worked well for me but as you say it may not be for everyone and whoever considered to take it must do its own research and choice for there health. In Dr Balch there was no warning and he usually write them
but he didn't. I will call Ridgecrest to find out what this is all about.
Clear lung help relieves bronchial and lung congestion it also balance mucus level. I do not use it everyday but if I feel i have to much mucus I was to remove sputum. Each person have different needs and each person are at different
level with it.
Have you heard about Colloidal Silver? Dr Balch in his book says it is an antiseptic that subdues inflammation and heals.
@nick52, yes, I have heard of Colloidal Silver. It used to used a lot back in the day before so many more medications came out. Please do let us know what you learn about that warning, I am curious.
@nick52, back in the day, over the last several hundred years, Europeans used sterling silver ware and ate off of silver plates and would always drink their water in silver goblets. (those that could afford it) That is because the silver ions would leach from the metal and kill bacteria in the water and food. That is how people kept from getting food & water bourne illnesses. Hmmmm, might have to break out grandma's silver and start using it. Ha!
My husband first got pseudomonous in July, 2017 and it was discovered through a sputum test. He was put on Cippro for several months but it never really cleared up. It is my understanding that the infection never really goes away. It apparently will flare up and then when you begin to recover it lingers in the background until the next flare up. My husband has 3 different infections and right now they are all well behaved until his next flare up. Patients are susceptible to pneumonia with pseudonymous or any other lung infection. I also think every person is different with lung infections. Symptoms for one person may be different than someone else and what works for one person (antibiotic) may not work for someone else. I hope you soon feel bettter.
I took my husband to his primary yesterday so that she could refer us to an infectious disease doctor. She talked a little bit about MAC and indicated that it is very possible that the ID doctor will not put my husband on a treatment plan. Without her saying, I think it is because he is in a weak state, he continues to have anemia, and he is already on 16 prescription drugs with his multiple illnesses. She indicated that in many cases the side effects from the drugs are much worse than the disease itself. The ID doctor is out of the office until Monday due to a family emergency. My husband continues to feel pretty well with the exception of fatigue, dizziness and off and on pain that moves through this body. He does not have rheumatoid arthritis but he is plagued with arthritis and he needs two shoulder replacements so that alone causes pain. No one really knows why he has groin pain usually in the evenings and then it goes away when he gets in bed. He was x-rayed and everything seemed to be OK. Even with his alzheimers and illnesses, he is always very pleasant and easy going. Hope you are doing well.
@heathert, I have never had kombucha, will have to try it.
