RESPIRATORY DISORDERS

"He, who knows how to listen, hears wisdom.
He, who does not know how to listen, hears only noise."
Chinese saying.


The respiratory system is a group of organs that bring oxygen from air into the bloodstream and expels the waste products including carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere. The aid is filtered and a biochemical process called respiration fuels the cells of the body with oxygen.

The Associated Press released a report on the 20 best selling prescription drugs in America in 2003. Americans spent $2,300,000,000 on just 1 Asthma drug and folks that billion not million. Care to guess how much is being spent on the less popular respiratory medications and OTC products?

In addition to Asthma you can have respiratory distress caused by:
Allergies
Bronchitis
Common Colds
Emphysema
Pneumonia
Influenza
Sinus problems

These conditions are caused by viral infections and at this time there are NO antiviral medications available with which to treat these conditions. Customary treatment is directed to supportive therapies to ease discomfort.

Symptoms can include
Stuffy Nose
Runny Frequent Sneezing
Coughing or Wheezing
Itchy Sensation in the Eyes, Nose or Throat
Loss of Smell
Shortness of Breath
Tight Chest
Chills
Low Grade Fever
Hoarseness
Aching
Mild Fatigue
Headaches
High grade Fever
and the list goes on and on.

If you or a family member is plagued with a chronic respiratory condition your focus should be on prevention because once you have one of these conditions about all you can do is relieve the discomfort and wait for it to run its course.

Our NATURAL & ALTERNATIVE HEALING RESOURCE DIRECTORY provides information on great products and where to buy them that specifically target many of the conditions that affect "modern man" today.  Drinking Kombucha on a regular basis also may very well be the most important thing you can do to regain and maintain good health.

So what can Kombucha "fermented tea" do to relieve and possibly prevent respiratory conditions?

Being stupid, isn't not knowing much, nor is it not wanting to know much.
Being stupid, is believing you know enough.

Kombu. .  what, you might ask.
What is it?

It is an Oriental fermented tea remedy that can be traced back to 400 B.C. where it originated in what is known today as Korea. It is perfectly safe and is used today by 500 million people around the world. Emperors, Czars and even an American President have used the tea. The President in the 1980/s was being treated for Cancer and was having metastases (spreading of cancer cells). A culture was brought in from Japan and incorporated into his treatment. He survived and lived into his nineties.

It wasn't until 1993 that Kombucha was introduced to the American public. Today, over 3,000,000 Americans drink Kombucha on a regular basis.


The usnic acid produced by the fermenting process has antibiotic properties and may be helpful in preventing infections.

Properly fermented tea is also the same pH as the stomach fluids are supposed to be. It therefore helps balance stomach juices so they are not too acidic or too alkaline. This should relieve digestive conditions such as heartburn, nausea and indigestion.

Medical therapy involving antibiotics can damage or in extreme cases, kill the friendly intestinal bacteria of the colon. Several important acids are in properly fermented Kombucha which coupled with balanced pH create a hostile environment for pathogens. Another plus in reducing the chance of infections.

The tea also contains lactic acid and acetic acid which deter the growth of harmful bacteria.

Since the tea aids healthy digestion, the nutrients in food and drink are more readily available for the rest of the body to utilize in performing the body's normal function, hence more energy even when you are having a respiratory problem.

It is estimated that 70 to 80% of all defense cells are located in the intestinal walls. In order to function properly against invading bacteria and viruses they need contact with healthy intestinal bacteria. Kombucha is a living tea containing friendly bacteria and beneficial yeasts (not to be confused with the Candida variety). It is very beneficial in nourishing intestinal flora.

The fermentation process produces a variety of substances from acetylcholine, which benefits the body's nervous system to choline which normalizes blood pressure and prevents hypertension.

Kombucha sometimes enhances the effectiveness of medications so if you are on any medication it is important to keep your health provider informed so dosage can be adjusted if needed.

Blood pH that is more alkaline will tend to throw calcium out of solution. As the balance with calcium becomes more upset individuals complain more of allergic-like reactions, runny nose producing clear to viscous mucus, sneezing and irritability.

The detoxification has a positive effect on asthma . Interferon and Kombucha were tested on 246 asthma patients under the care of Dr. A.Wiesner. Generally speaking, the Kombucha group had considerable improvement over the Interferon group.

Here is what some Kombucha drinkers say about their Kombucha experience:

Joyce in AR shares who Kombucha experience: My allergies are 90% gone, my asthma-gone. I don't have hot flashes any more. I have healthy fingernails for the first time in my life. Even my gray hair is turning back to its natural color.

Maureen of NM reports: The first 5 months on the tea I was never sick. I felt good and had lots of ambition. I went on vacation for 2 weeks and didn't take any tea with me. Before I knew it, I was sick with a cold. A friend had a batch of tea waiting for me when I got home and I will never go without my tea again.

Karen is a herbologist in WI: I am up to 10 mushrooms now and very excited about the results. My Friend with MS has improved 75% since taking it. From bed ridden to day time driving-she's come a long way. I've had a slow, steady weight loss. Hurrah. My 96 year old grandmother overcame pneumonia in just days.

Dr. M. prescribes Kombucha to children suffering from bronchitis with lots of success.

Mrs. F: The asthmatic troubles my child suffered from have improve considerably with the tea.

Mrs. J: Two years ago I had influenza. From that time on I have been suffering from secretion of mucus from the throat. It was reduced tremendously after drinking Kombucha for only 8 days.

From an Australian Doctor: I have personally been using Kombucha for 6 months and have 50 families drinking the tea. Main results so far are; energy increase, weight loss, regular bowel movements, moles diminishing in size and good results with sinus and mucus elimination. I used it during the hay fever season and found relief much earlier than usual.

I must say that Kombucha picks me up. I have asthma from working in a clothing factory for years. I also have had chronic fatigue for many years. After a couple of bottles of Kombucha, I feel a marked difference.

Kombucha by itself doesn't cure anything.
It simply nourishes at the cellular level so that your marvelous body can heal itself.


It costs only about $5 a month since you brew the tea yourself. About 1 or 2 hours a month is needed for the brewing and cleanup. It's also simple. If you can bake a Duncan Hines cake then you too can be a Master Brewmeister.

I grew up in Missouri and as Uncle Harry (Truman) would say, the buck stops here.  If you are willing to put forth a little effort there is no reason for you to continue to suffer.
