Natural Asthma Treatment

About six months ago I had taken my youngest daughter to the allergist to be retested. I was hoping that she had outgrown many of her food allergies over the last few years. While she was there she had a lung capacity test and was only at 60%. We decided to wait a month and retake the test. Well, her allergy test came back and the list of what she isn't allergic to is shorter than the list she is allergic to and they tested her for 60 different food and environmental allergens. The month was up and I took her back to the allergist for another lung function test. This time she tested at 61%, so really no improvement. The allergist wanted to have her start a daily inhaler. I just could not stand the thought of her inhaling a steroid every day. I smiled nice and took the prescription and we went home.

My dear husband and I started doing some research about what could we do naturally. He came across a herbal formula that is suppose to help repair the lungs and bronchial tubes and help with an asthma allergy among other issues, it was worth a shot. We are always interested in an appropriate asthma treatment due to her allergies and prevent the use of an asthma inhaler. I threw the prescription away and ordered the herbs. I had her start taking it once a day and then moved her up to twice a day. It is in liquid form so I just add the number of drops into a small amount of water and have her drink it. After about 4-5 months we decided to take her back to the allergist for another lung function test.

My husband took some time off work to go to the appointment with us. Her lung function test this time was a 92%. Needless to say we were very excited. The doctor asked when the last time she used the inhaler was and I told him the last time was at the last appointment when he showed her how to use it. He said that whatever we were doing was working great and to keep it up. He never did ask what we were doing!

How To Control High Blood Pressure Naturally

Being tired of some of the response from typical conventional doctors I have started researching on my own. I have been coming across some amazing things. My dear husband bought me the book Over the Counter Natural Cures by Shane Ellison. There is so much great information in the book. One thing that it talks about is using GNC Hawthorn to reduce blood pressure.

While that dear hubby of mine has been on blood pressure meds. for awhile now and he still has elevated blood pressure. While he was on the Diovan HCT by Novartis Pharmaceuticals his pressure was in the mid 130's over high 70's. He was willing to be my guinea pig and try some herbal stuff. He went completely off his Diovan and started taking the Hawthorn. After about 2 1/2 months it was time for another check up with the doctor. Needless to say I was a little nervous when he went, wondering if the hawthorne was working or not. When he came back home he had great news that his pressure was now 126 over 62. He did tell the doctor that he had been off the Diovan for about 2 months, so it was now completely out of his system. The doctor was interested in what he was taking and requested the empty bottle of the Hawthorne and the information that he had. I would highly recommend Shane "The People's Chemist" Ellison's book Over the Counter Natural Cures because it does tell you how to figure out the correct dosage of Hawthorn to take.

So if you are having issues with hypertension and are looking for a decent high blood treatment or remedies please do yourself a favor and buy the book!
