I have found that large doses of vitamin E with large

doses of vitamin C and making sure that all of the

daily essential nutrients are taken in by

supplimentation usually resolves it. F.

Asthma

 

Some illnesses are perceived as much harder to treat

than they really are. Asthma is a good example.

 

Six Ways to Avoid an Asthma Attack:

 

1) Low Vitamin C causes asthma. High doses of vitamin

C relieves asthma.

" Decreased preference for foods containing vitamin C

and decreased concentrations of vitamin C in blood

plasma are also associated with asthma. "

Hatch, G.E. (1995) American Journal of Clinical

Nutrition. 61:625S-30S.

 

Robert Cathcart, M.D., recommends a daily vitamin C

dosage of between 15,000 to 50,000 milligrams (mg),

divided into eight doses. I have seen this work again

and again.

 

Cathcart, R. F. (1981) Vitamin C, titrating to bowel

tolerance, anascorbemia, and acute induced scurvy.

Medical Hypotheses. 7:1359-1376.

He writes:

" Asthma is most often relieved by bowel tolerance

doses of ascorbate. A child regularly having asthmatic

attacks following exercise is usually relieved of

these attacks by large doses of ascorbate. So far all

of my patients having asthmatic attacks associated

with the onset of viral diseases have been ameliorated

by this treatment. "

 

When consumed in regular, frequent,

near-saturation-doses, vitamin C is a powerful

antihistamine.

2) Smoking around asthmatics is assault, and smoking

around children is child abuse.

Smoking, or simply breathing second-hand tobacco

smoke, destroys vitamin C. Do not allow asthmatics

near smokers. This goes double for children. It will

not surprise anyone to learn that many scientific

studies confirm the link between exposure to tobacco

smoke and increased incidence of asthma.

 

3) Stress reduction greatly helps asthmatics.

 

The following studies report reduced airway resistance

and decreased severity of symptoms in persons with

bronchial asthma:

of Transcendental Meditation upon bronchial asthma.

Clinical Research 21: 278 (Abstract).

Novey, H. S. (1975) Transcendental Meditation and

asthma. Respiration 32: 74-80.

 

These papers report profound improvement and

decreasing need for anti-asthmatic drugs:

Technik der Transzendentalen Meditation für die

ärztliche Praxis. Erfahrungsheilkunde 9: 594-596.

and Lovell-Smith, H. D. (1983) Improved mental and

physical health and decreased use of prescribed and

non-prescribed drugs through the Transcendental

Meditation program. Age of Enlightenment Medical

Council, Christchurch, New Zealand; Heylen Research

Centre, Auckland, New Zealand; and Dunedin Hospital,

Dunedin, New Zealand.

 

4) Keep your back in line. For you, this may mean

regular visits to a good chiropractor. For me, it

means yoga stretches, exercise, and using a “Ma

Roller” every day. How-to's at

5) Avoid dairy products and meat. Eat a lot of fresh,

raw foods such as vegetable salads and fresh fruit.

This is a tried and true naturopathic protocol.

 

6) Look into homeopathic remedies for asthma. I’d

start with aconitum napthallus (“aconite”), a

microdilution of the monkshood herb. It is good first

aid for an asthma attack. Taking lots of vitamin C

will negate your need for even this natural remedy,

however.
