Bronchitis and emphysema

* May I suggest that you invest in a bottle of Citricidal (www.highernature.co.uk), the best natural antiviral and antibacterial I have ever come across. It is extracted from grapefruit seeds and has no adverse effects. I cured my own bronchitis with this and would not be without it now. - Tony Gibson

* I recommend Buteyko breathing exercises. My asthma was really bad, and I had a severe breathing block in my sternum. I got the book Breathing Free by Teresa Hale and did the exercises. My wheezing stopped, I could walk further without having to stop to catch my breath, and the sternum block disappeared. I haven’t done the exercises since, and my breathing continues to improve. - Carol Crow
