ASK LENA HEALTH Q & A
EDITION!
====================================
With allergy season upon a large part of the world
respiratory problems are going to be exacerbated and
those with life-threatening COPD problems will be hit
worse and some will lose their life because of those
compromises. Today's question can help with either of
those problems.
The answers
to questions submitted to me each week come from my 20+ years as a Medical Office Nurse along
with many years and ongoing education in nutritional and alternative
treatment modes. Add that to
many years of friendship with Dr. Wayne Garland,
a very knowledgeable naturopath and herbologist, who
many years ago, beat his cancer death sentence given by
the traditional medical world, has helped along the
alternatives
path and
hopefully help to give hope to those who need it... Also
receiving a lot of study reports and try to ascertain
if they are good or bad then report them to you, which
has increased my knowledge along the way and I pass them on to you to
use or not...
I am not a doctor or dentist and you should not think of
me as one!!
My years observing life and health of the many
people/patients around me and the contradictions of the
traditional medical world's idea of treating -
prescription domino effect - while watching those same
schooled methods that aren't relieving illness but
creating far more health problems than they help. Those same medical
professionals aren't telling people how to get healthy
or how to prevent illness, which led me to look for
something to change that premise for myself and those
around me. In looking outside the Westernized medical
profession I found and continue to find alternatives
that really work to create health and longevity - when
adhered to - beyond anything the traditional medical
world can do...

===========================
QUESTION:
I was diagnosed with COPD many years ago.
It is now extremely difficult to breathe most of the
time and am on oxygen almost 24 hours a day. My lung
doctor said I'm not a good candidate for a lung
transplant due to my age and deteriorating heart. I only
have one good lung, the other one is barely functioning.
I'm 65 so at my age what do I have to lose, the way I
see it I will either survive and be reasonably healthy
or I will die, which if I live long enough I'm going to
do anyway. I live with oxygen to help me breathe. What
are your thoughts on improving my breathing capabilities
since I cannot get a lung transplant? I am not sure I
would have one even if I could? Would you?
Sincerely,
James
ANSWER:
Hi James,
Sorry you've had such bad luck. Hey 65 is still young,
or at least I like to believe it since I'm way beyond
that... I'm hearing these same questions from people
much younger than you these days. With all the pollution
in the air and home it's a wonder anyone can breathe
well!
For those who don't know
COPD is Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. This
includes any chronic lung problems from asthma to lung
failure!
You do not mention your medications, other than oxygen
but knowing conventional medicine I'm sure you are on a
host of drugs and steroid inhalers. Sadly, those meds.
will not solve the problem and only treats certain
symptoms and does your heart in - as it seems where you
are - and soften your bones. So it will be a toss up of
which gives out first your heart or your lungs or broken
bones. You do not mention smoking or ever having smoked,
but smoking is only one area which causes COPD. With all
the air pollution, creams and lotions slathered on our
bodies as well as the antibacterial soaps and cleaning
and room freshening sprays, it's a wonder more of us
aren't afflicted.
If you ever smoked I do
hope you stopped it years ago! I'm sure you've learned
you can't use room sprays as they impair your breathing
significantly.
I do not say those things to scare you or anyone but it
is a statement of fact. Our goal is to stop those
life-altering, life-taking drugs and give a better
quality of life, which many are doing successfully!
I must say that the lungs cannot be repaired as the
liver and other organs can so I do not claim to be able
to do that. Yes, some repair is possible but only
slightly. The best we can hope to do is keep what you
have working up to its best ability without
deterioration. Yes, we are achieving better respiratory
function and small repair but nothing huge.
I believe we can accomplish quality of breathing for you
over a few months time, if you wish to follow Dr.
Garland's proven protocol. For the first three to six
months you will be on a lot of herbs and minerals then
you may be able to start tapering back after that period
to smaller doses, depending on how your lungs respond...
It will also require some dietary changes along with
supplements of herbs, minerals and vitamins, some from
us and some not...
It is a known fact by both conventional medicine and
alternatives medicine that dairy products build up
mucous in the lungs making breathing harder while also
draining the body of nutrients necessary to healthy
lungs and body. If something say "Pasteurized"
STAY AWAY FROM IT.
The first step is a week long Cleansing Diet and
total abstention from bread and pasta made with
white flour, dairy and red meats. Yes, I'm
fully aware you guys are meat and potatoes people but
with men dying younger than women, leaving the world
overpopulated with women, shouldn't that tell you
something about that way of life? Your choice will be to
continue unhealthy habits and not breathe well or stop
those unhealthy habits and breathe better!
Here is what I would do for better breathing if it were
me and we do have people doing the these steps with
great results and better breathing capacity... This is
actually Dr. Wayne Garland's better breathing protocol!
1.
7-Day Cleansing Diet - A must to cleanse the cells
and organs of the body to institute better breathing.
2.
Life Transfusion Ionic Liquid Minerals the key to
all the organs better health Read Minerals and their
Uses to understand why.
3.
Antioxidant Free-Radical formula, This is an
absolute necessity to stop free-radical damage that will
keep the cellular system strong and healthy. Without
healthy cells the lungs cannot work efficiently.
4.
MegaNutrient vitamin formula, The gives your body
the absolute vitamin power to retain elasticity and
healthy lungs.
5. Shark Liver
Oil Capsules, This supplement is a known lung
improver and strengthener.
6.
Circulatory Support and
Respiratory/lung health Formula these two formulas
will retain elasticity and strength in your lungs as
well as restore your heart to it's maximum capacity,
which is so key to the filtering of the blood through
the lungs and heart.
7. If at all possible: a hyperbaric chamber, if
available. Treatments with the chamber is opening up the
circulatory system in ways only dreamed of in the past
but now being used to open arteries and veins helping
the whole body but doing great things for the lungs and
respiratory diseases?
These are steps we have many of Dr. Garland's
respiratory patients are doing and breathing better for
it. I'm sure you could be added to that group if you
choose these alternatives.
As to your question of me having a lung transplant if I
could. No Way! After watching the life of transplant
patients over the years and the drugs necessary after
transplants, wipe out people I would not have it done
nor would I allow a member of my family if I had a say
in it. I'm all for quality of life if it's a choice of
quality or longevity and being sick. I choose
quality! To me that is worse than death. I am fully
aware most will not agree with me and that's okay. You
must choose your life and I choose mine! So don't send
me nasty emails please!

Thought for the Day
~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^
If your
child has asthma, don't be afraid to let them play wind
instruments if they want. That's the advice of the
Journal of Asthma. When researchers studied a group
of asthmatic teens who played wind instruments and
compared them with a group who played other instruments,
they found that playing the brasses or reeds offered
real lung improving benefit.
The
wind players had fewer asthmatic episodes and felt more
confident about their ability to deal with the
condition. In fact, the journal concludes that playing
a wind instrument may be good long-term therapy for
asthma.

TIME TO BE QUIET
Popular author and speaker Ken
Blanchard sometimes tells a powerful story about Red, a
corporate president who, as a young man, learned an
important and life-changing lesson. Red had just
graduated from college and was offered an opportunity to
interview for a position with a firm in New York City.
As the job involved moving his wife and small child from
Texas to New York, he wanted to talk the decision over
with someone before accepting it, but his father had
died and Red did not feel he had anybody to turn to. On
impulse, he telephoned an old friend of the family;
someone his father had suggested he turn to if he ever
needed good advice.
The friend said he would be happy to give Red advice
about the job offer under the condition that the young
man takes whatever advice he was given. "You might want
to think about that for a couple of days before hearing
my suggestion," he was told.
Two days later Red called the man back and said he was
ready to listen to his counsel. "Go on to New York City
and have the interview," the older man said. "But I want
you to go up there in a very special way. I want you to
go on a train and I want you to get a private
compartment. Don't take anything to write with, anything
to listen to or anything to read, and don't talk to
anybody except to put in your order for dinner with the
porter. When you get to New York call me and I will tell
you what to do next."
Red followed the advice precisely. The trip took two
days. As he had brought along nothing to do and kept
entirely to himself, he quickly became bored. It soon
dawned on him what was happening. He was being forced
into quiet time. He could do nothing but think and
meditate. About three hours outside New York City he
broke the rules and asked for a pencil and paper. Until
the train stopped, he wrote -- the culmination of all
his meditation.
Red called the family friend from the train station. "I
know what you wanted," he said. "You wanted me to think.
And now I know what to do. I don't need anymore help."
"I didn't think you would, Red," came the reply. "Good
luck."
Sorry, I don't know if he took the job or not. But
Blanchard reports that, years later, Red headed a
corporation in California. And he always made it a
policy to take a couple of days to be alone. He went
where there was no phone, no television, no distractions
and no people. He went to be alone; to meditate and to
listen.
The French writer and Nobel Prize winner Andŕ
Gide reminds us to "be faithful to that which exists
within yourself." But how can we be faithful when we
don't really know what is inside?
The answer for me is to be quiet. To still my mind...and
to listen. I'll soon know what to do.
