My issues are asthma and bronchitis. I lived in Xian, China, from July 2001 to August 2002 and breathed coal dust the entire time, contracted pneumonia in December 2001, took Zythromax, and wiped out the good intestinal flora. Two years later I was diagnosed with chronic yeast asthma and yeast bronchitis, was treated by an allergist and a pulmonologist, went on a strict, mainly vegetarian diet with restricted carbs (no more than 18 daily), and in three months was announced asthma and bronchitis free. A year and a half ago my cough returned. We had a leak below our kitchen sink, had it repaired and replaced wood, but we discovered mold in our heating/cooling vents. We had the vents cleaned and an attic bacteria-destroying light installed that is! activated everytime the fan comes on. However, I still have the cough and have lost my singing voice. I don’t want to take steroids, so my inhaler sits in the cabinet. What can I safely do to get rid of this cough and have my energy back? I’m 77 years old, use the treadmill two or three times weekly, weigh 133 pounds, eat lots of fresh vegetables and fruit and small amounts of meat, and am generally healthy otherwise. Yesterday I took my blood pressure at WalMart and it was 81/50 and my pulse was 97. My husband took his blood pressure immediately after, and his was normal. I shopped for ten minutes, took my blood pressure again, and it read 87/50 with a pulse rate of 94. I felt weak, went home, and slept soundly for two hours! What can I do to get rid of this asthma and bronchitis? Thank you!

It sounds like you are doing all the right things-good diet, regular exercise, cleaning vents from mold, bacteria destroying light.  Let me mention a few other things, some of which you may be already doing.

• 1. If you had yeast asthma, bronchitis, it probably is also in your intestinal tract, so long-term (probably indefinitely) probiotics are important-10 to 30 billion each day.
• 2. Depending on where you are living in Florida, it is impossible to remove mold from your house.  You may want to try NAET to desensitize you to either the mold itself, or the toxins it produces that you may be sensitive to.
• 3. You may want to try Caprylic acid as a safe long-term anti-yeast/Candida agent.  You may even need anti-fungals for several months.  Allopathic medicine tends to treat yeast with short term, sometimes even just a few days, anti-fungals.
• 4. There are frequency generators that have frequencies specific for trachea, bronchi, lung, pharynx tissue that can assist with healing.  Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) is the machine I use.  There may be a practitioner that uses it in your area.  Dr. Carolyn McMakin has a website that may have a list of practitioners.  Her site is: http://www.frequencyspecific.com/about.htm
