An Asthma Treatment with a Sweet Healing
Carol M., was a fun loving child...except for one thing.
She had to drag around a ton of allergies.
Her nose was constantly running and she couldn't get within ten feet of a cat. As if this wasn't misery enough, she had to put up with constant teasing from playmates. They took to calling her, Miss Runny Nose.
Carol longed to be an adult because she had been told she might outgrow her allergies. But this didn't happen.
Instead, her allergies turned into asthma. She ended up taking drugs several times a day and constantly reaching for an inhaler.
Nights were often the worst. In order to breathe she had to sleep sitting up.
The drugs added to her misery, making her feel as if she'd been on a coffee binge. She had difficulty concentrating. And every nerve in her body seemed to be exposed.
Despite everything, Carol did manage to launch a successful professional singing career. But demon asthma kept advancing. Eventually, she had to abandon even this joyous activity. Breathing became too difficult.
Desperation drove her to look for drug alternatives. That's when she discovered simple sugars.
The science made sense to her. Here was food. Not some new miracle drug...not some magic extract from an exotic plant. But food backed by a science taught in medical schools since 2002.
Still she had doubts. It seemed almost too good to be true. But desperate for relief, she decided to try the science. It couldn't hurt. After all, it was simply food. Non-toxic. No interaction with drugs. Safe as a blueberry muffin.
At first there was no change. But she had been told to expect that. It was like starting an exercise program. Results don't happen immediately.
Finally, after three months, she noticed she was breathing easier. She went back to sleeping in her bed. And with her doctor's
approval, she began weaning herself off prescription drugs.
That was several years ago and Carol feels better today than she can ever remember. She still includes the simple sugars in her diet. She knows that, just like exercise, those sugars are essential to health. And they have become part of her daily eating habit.
What are these simple sugars?
Just what the name implies. They are sugar. But not the table grade stuff that diabetics have to avoid.
These sugars (there are eight of them) are an essential part of your cellular communication system.
And in case you don't think this is terribly important consider that cells must communicate their needs to stay healthy. And they are expected to identify bad cells and communicate this to your immune system so they can be eliminated.
Reduce your intake of simple sugars and it may scramble your cellular communication system. And that opens the door to disease.
Bottom line is this.
We need these simple sugars everyday. And our modern diet provides precious few of them. Therefore, almost all of us are experiencing health problems...sometimes life debilitating or life threatening.
You should at least become familiar with this science.
Your doctor may not know about it. Even though the science has been written up in almost every medical journal, ‘food' topics often go unnoticed within the medical community.
You may need to check it out on your own. There are many resources available. The important thing is to do it now.
Spending a few minutes checking out a relatively new but proven medical treatment could be a lifesaver for you or a loved one.
