Question:
Are there any herbs that might ease things a little for Emphysema?
Answer:
Emphysema is when the little bubbles in your lungs pop together into larger
bubbles, which, in the long run, significantly reducing the gas exchange area in
the lungs.
I'm currently studying the respiratory system
and one assignment is to work up a treatment plan for someone with a
respiratory problem.
Herbs I'm investigating are mullein leaf, comfrey, coltsfoot and
thyme.Perhaps garlic and ginger and lemon. Like I said , I'm just
starting.
Deep breathing exercises, fresh air if she can find it, exercise and a
diet devoid of dairy, musous type foods, sugar etc. can hopefully help.
Of course stop smoking, move out from under smog, check for mold in
your environment and so on.
