			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What is the difference between God and a Doctor? God doesnt think that he is a doctor. How do you tell the difference between a Doctor and a banana? If the banana doesnt go rotten in 14 days then it isnt a doctor. According to your doctor asthma is incurable, or as your Doctor learned after 8 years in University envying the number of women chasing the quarterback, who your Doctor in a jealous and drunken rage referred to in his secret diary as a hairy Neanderthal, asthma is a chronic (permanent) inflammatory condition of the lungs. The medical schools and the big drug companies and the big corporate executives have pawned off this deadly myth for so long that now even they believe it. </p>
<p>20 million Americans suffer from asthma. Does this mean that we should lay the blame for asthma on our creator? Did God not know how to create a functioning lung? Are we just prototypes in Gods vast laboratory? Perhaps without inhalers all of the asthmatics would die off and then the human gene pool would be freed from this genetic defect and then future generations would evolve into a species with perfectly functioning bronchial tubes. In the interest of future generations perhaps you should throw out your puffer and just choke to death sacrificing your life for the common good. This may get you into heaven in case you forgot to put your $5 into the collection plate last Sunday. Did Jesus have asthma? Did Jesus ever cure an asthmatic? Did Jesus know that asthma was incurable? Did Jesus go to medical school? Did Jesus play football? Was Mary Magdalene a cheerleader for the Jerusalem University Keepahs? </p>
<p>The reasons that the environmental organizations are going nowhere are myriad. One of them is that the word environmental is a combination of the words enviro and mental. No one knows what the word enviro means which leaves us with the word mental. People just think that these people are mental. George Bushs father referred to them as the spotted owl crowd. His son George proclaimed that there is no evidence that global warming exists. Jesus referred to the leaders of his day as snakes, blind guides, leading us all into the fire. The United States which likes to think of itself as the role model for a world which thinks of the U.S. as the black sheep of the family is the highest per capita polluter in the world. The reason that pollution groups are going nowhere is because people dont understand the meaning of the word pollution. The world is like a giant Jonestown filled with people believing that poison cannot kill them because some Bible writers, scribes, and who Jesus referred to as snakes spewing their deadly poisonous lies into your Bibles (Matthew 23) wrote this baloney in your Bible 2,000 years ago beside The Earth does not move and it never will three times. If God wrote your Bible then not only can he not create a functioning lung but he is also very poor at astronomy. Your Bible has 2,000 pages of Gods Word and no cure for asthma? Perhaps if the George Bushes had paid a little less attention to their Holy Bibles and checked out the Greenpeace website a couple of times, Greenland, Antarctica and the Arctic would not now be melting into the worlds 1 ocean which will shortly cause the sea level to rise 50 feet leaving nothing left of the United States except the peaks of Vail, which will be prime beachfront property. </p>
<p>In the Holy Bible God commands the cutting away of the foreskin, not the foresight. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure especially when there is no cure for asthma. The pollution, the particles of poison in the air which we breathe into our lungs, like deadly airborne cyanide, hemlock and snake venom gets into your lungs when you breathe the air, it inflames your lungs and you have asthma. If you want to get away with poisoning childrens lungs with deadly poison chemicals so that they cannot breathe then give your poison a name that no one understands, like a carcinogen, a cancer causing chemical coming out of the exhaust pipe of your car like a bullet which hits its target and then explodes 10 years later in your own lungs and then slowly eats you alive in an excruciating prolonged death. It was announced yesterday that in Beijing, the site of the next Olympics, where the smog is so bad that more car accidents are caused by low visibility than msg, over 100,000 Chinese people died last year from the indoor air pollution in their skyscrapers from the chemicals gassing off from their carpets, furniture, and poor ventilation. Who would want to open a window in Beijing even if the office buildings did have windows? The air in Beijing is so filled with poison gas that the 100 yard dash at the 2008 Olympics has been shortened to 10 yards. What is the big deal searching for a cure for Aids in Africa? If everyone remained a virgin and then only had sex with their spouse there would be no sexually transmitted diseases. Is this a secret being deliberately held from the African people? You cannot break the laws of nature but if you do it will break your back. </p>
<p>Mold is a fungus, a tiny airborne animal that can only be seen when magnified through the lens of a microscope. Some molds exist in nature and we breathe it in all the time in small amounts and our bodies can handle it. However in larger amounts, or in people with immune systems weakened by all of the poison we breathe in every day, these molds which we breathe in, that multiply in our lungs and digestive tracts, these molds cause allergic reactions, aka tightening of the airways, aka chronic asthma, chronic bronchitis and chronic emphysema leading to death. The end of chapter 14 of the Book of Leviticus recommends that in some cases when these molds get into the wooden walls and stones of your house, you must tear down your house and rebuild it. </p>
<p>Doctors, i.e. allopathic doctors will treat the symptoms of your asthma and not the causes. Allergists will diagnose you with mold allergies and inject you with mold for 5 years of useless and painful treatment. Respiratory specialists will give you cortisone inhalers which cause thrush, candida, yeast, mold, fungus in your throat which your bloodstream then carries to every organ in your body including your lungs thereby aggravating the problem and making the doctors and the drug companies rich. Jesus commanded that everyone sell all of their possessions and then give all of their money to the poor. Are there any Christian doctors? Are there any Christians? </p>
<p>Here is the good news. Go to your naturopathic doctor, your doctor of naturopathy. Take the best from what both traditional and naturopathic doctors have to offer. Actually naturopathic doctors should be called traditional doctors since they are the doctors who are using herbal remedies which have been used and are tried and true since before biblical times, which are recommended in the Bible. In the numerous cases of asthma which are caused by breathing in airborne mold, there is a herbal remedy which can cure it. Oil of oregano has been clinically proven to kill bacterial infections which penicillin cannot kill, viruses which nothing can kill, molds, yeast and fungus. Many drugs are synthetic preparations of herbal remedies, plant medicine put on earth by God to save your life. Oil of oregano with sage and cumin taken in capsules will kill off the mold, and remove the root cause of the asthma, tiny animals eating their way through your lungs like they eat through wood and stone no matter how much you clean the surface. Your bloodstream will take the Oregacyn capsules (oil of oregano, sage and cumin search oregacyn) which you can buy over the internet or in your health food store to every part of your body including your lungs and kill the mold and cure the asthma. It is also good to take non dairy acidophilus, the healthy bacteria in our bodies which beats back the mold, and NutriBiotic grapefruit seed extract tablets which also kill the fungus. Years ago Doctors accused the naturopaths of practicing voodoo medicine and the Government threatened to ban herbal remedies as being unsafe. (Some are unsafe. Check with your naturopath and your doctor and your health food stores to see which ones.) Today many drug stores look more like health food stores than drugstores. In the fight for power, control and money in medicine and in religion, it is always the patient who ends up the big loser. If the 200 countries on Earth decided to make World Peace they could do it overnight at the United Nations. Unfortunately your Holy Bibles and your religious leaders forbid it. Also, the weapons manufacturers own and are pulling the strings of the politicians, and they will never allow World Peace, until nuclear world war III causes the extinction of all life on earth forever in the near future, which will also put an end to asthma once and for all. Think of it as radiology theology coming to your rescue. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>* 1 out of every 7 children is affected by asthma.<br />
* It is the second major reason for the hospitalization of the children up to age 9.<br />
* Asthma has affected 1 out of every 12 adults.<br />
* The death rate due to it is constantly rising in America, Africa and Latin countries.<br />
* It has become one of the major reasons of absenteeism from school in the US.<br />
* It leads to 2 million emergency room visits and amounts up to 5,000 deaths every year in the USA alone. </p>
<p>Asthma is a chronic disease, which directly affects your airways. The airways are the tubes carrying air in and out of your lungs. Asthma is caused by inflammation and subsequent constriction of your airway. The condition is characterized by an instantaneous reaction by the airways in response to various triggers or allergens and substances. </p>
<p>During an asthma attack, the airway gets inflamed and restricts the airflow to the lungs. It directly effects your breathing and leaves you short of breath. It makes you wheeze and you can experience chest tightness. During an asthma attack the production of mucus by airway cells increases and it further causes obstruction in the air flow through tubes. You can die due to the lack of oxygen, if the attack is severe and prolonged. </p>
<p>Asthma, if not treated and controlled, can cost you your life. </p>
<p>It is widely known disease, effecting millions of people, still there is no concrete evidence towards its cause. Studies have revealed that it is caused due to allergic reactions caused by the presence of certain antibodies or certain conditions. Some studies also reveal that it is caused due to obesity and weight related problems. Various triggers or allergic reactions are known to cause asthma in people. It might not be necessary that the same trigger causes an asthma attack in all people. There are numerous triggers, which can cause asthmatic attacks. Triggers can be categorized as allergens, irritants and other triggers. Among the common triggers which initiate asthma attacks are as follows: </p>
<p>Allergens Dust Pollen Mold Cockroaches Dust mites Animal dander Irritants Tobacco smoke Air pollution Strong odor Laughing Crying Others Workplace chemicals Common cold Infections Exertion Respiratory infection Flu </p>
<p>It is important for you to identify what triggers an asthma attack for you. It would help you greatly if, once recognized, you in stayed away from any known causes. </p>
<p>Like other diseases, asthma also presents symptoms that characterize its early, advancing and later stages. Some of the common symptoms include coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and chest tightness. </p>
<p>The first stage &#8212; Early warning signs of Asthma </p>
<p>If you are in the early stages of an asthmatic event, you might experience some common symptoms. These common symptoms are characterized during the inception periods of the asthma episode. The symptoms include:- </p>
<p>*Frequent coughing during sleep in the night.<br />
*Experiencing wheezing or coughing after exercising.<br />
*Shortness of breath.<br />
*Extreme exhaustion following exercise.<br />
*Feeling tired and upset all the time.<br />
*Experiencing a running nose, sore throat, headaches and sneezing frequently. </p>
<p>If you experience any of the above symptoms, you should immediately get yourself checked for asthma. The swifter you act, the more you will be able to control it. </p>
<p>The second stage &#8211; Advancement and worsening of Asthma </p>
<p>If you are not able to identify the initial symptoms of asthma, or if you ignore those symptoms, asthma could get even worse. The advancement of asthma starts affecting your daily activities and sleep. Some of the symptoms of worsening asthma include. </p>
<p>*Regular and undying cough.<br />
*Frequent wheezing.<br />
*Declined response to medications.<br />
*Shortness of breath.<br />
*Experiencing regular tightness in the chest. Asthma should be diagnosed immediately upon countering these symptoms or it could further advance into a severe stage causing damage to your body. </p>
<p>The final stage and its symptoms When asthma enters into its last stage it starts affecting you severely. It makes life difficult for you and can even cause the death. You would need immediate medical attention if you experience any of the symptoms listed below: </p>
<p>*Rapid breathing.<br />
*Undying chest pain and pressure.<br />
*Non-stop coughing.<br />
*Sweaty and dull face.<br />
*Blue fingernails and lips.<br />
*Hampered talking.<br />
*Retraction of neck and chest muscles.<br />
*Frequent gasping for breath.<br />
*Severe wheezing. </p>
<p>Asthma can only be controlled, not cured. So you must abide by proper medication and medical instructions. It is also important to stay free of any known triggers, which can cause an asthma attack. </p>
<p>You should visit your doctor immediately if you are concerned you may be suffering with asthma. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Native to Africa, Aloe Vera is also known as &#8220;lily of the desert&#8221;, the &#8220;plant of immortality&#8221;, and the &#8220;medicine plant&#8221;. The name was derived from the Arabic alloeh meaning &#8220;bitter&#8221; because of the bitter liquid found in the leaves. Recorded use of Aloe Vera in treating burns, infections and parasites goes back as far as the Egyptians in about 1500 B.C. There are over 500 species of aloe growing worldwide. Ancient Greeks, Arabs and Spaniards have used the plant throughout the millennia. African hunters still rub the gel on their bodies as a deodorant/anti-perspirant. </p>
<p>Advance Research of Aloe Vera </p>
<p>Extensive research since the 1930&#8242;s has shown the clear gel produces dramatic benefits by putting up a protective layer over affected areas, speeding up the healing rate. The root of the aloe plant has also been used as a treatment for colic. As a food supplement, Aloe Vera is said to facilitate digestion, aid in blood and lymphatic circulation, and enhance the function of the liver, kidneys and gall bladder. Liquid health treatments using Aloe Vera and other herbs have proven beneficial for the relief of colitis and peptic ulcers. The oral administration of an extract of Aloe Vera for 6 months produced good results in the treatment of asthma. The exception was the fact that the extract was not effective in patients dependent on corticosteroids. The results of experimental studies in rats and mice suggest that Aloe Vera may be effective, both topically and internally, in the treatment of diabetic leg ulcers, as well as exhibiting blood sugar-lowering effect in both normal and chemical induced diabetic mice. Aloe Vera has shown great promise as an anti-bacterial and anti-viral substance. Acemannan, present in Aloe Vera , has shown encouraging results in the early treatment of the AIDS virus. </p>
<p>Uses of Aloe Vera </p>
<p>Aloe Vera is used today for the treatment the same conditions it has traditionally been used for. Those conditions include constipation as well as minor cuts and burns. In India, Aloe Vera was also used as a remedy for intestinal infections and suppressed menses.Aloe Vera is remedy for; Wounds, Ulcers, Burns, Asthma, Diabetes. </p>
<p>Aloe Vera Include: </p>
<p>The aloe vera plant is about 96% water. The rest of it contains active ingredients, such as essential oil, amino acids, minerals, vitamins, enzymes and glycoproteins. The constituents that produce the cathartic laxative effects of aloe latex are known as anthraquinone glycosides. Aloe Vera contains at least three anti-inflammatory fatty acids that are helpful for the stomach, small intestine and colon. Aloe Vera naturally alkalizes digestive juices to prevent over acidity &#8211; a common cause of indigestion. Acemannan is a newly discovered compound in aloe vera, which is being studied for its ability to strengthen the body&#8217;s natural resistance. Results have indicated acemannan can boost the immune system. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s nice to be able to breathe&#8211;that&#8217;s something we take for granted sometimes. However, for almost two hundred years scientists, researchers, doctors, and businesses have worked diligently to allow people the every day luxury of breathing. Today with almost ten million asthma suffers alone, air purifiers are offering allergy sufferers, firefighters, soldiers, coal miners, hospital workers, PC manufacturers, factory workers, etc. the opportunity to breathe easier with an absolute plethora of products. Air purifiers and air cleaners have evolved by leaps and bounds from the original &#8220;inhalers&#8221; and &#8220;lung protectors&#8221; of the early days and continue to evolve to meet the constant need to breathe. </p>
<p>In the early 1800&#8242;s, John and Charles Dean developed a mask for firefighters that allowed them to charge into burning buildings without being overcome with smoke fumes. Along the same time, breathing masks for divers and coal miners were also being developed. In the early 1850&#8242;s, John Stenhouse developed a charcoal based filter which became the first gas mask. The original breathing masks and gas masks focused on filtering out specific enemies using an approach called High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA). The addition of charcoal to the filtration system was a huge advancement because the charcoal filtered multiple toxins. </p>
<p>World War II brought about one of the largest advancements in air filtration / purification history with the Manhattan Project. This project focused scientists and government funding on developing a breathing apparatus that would protect soldiers from which was later revealed to be the atomic bomb. That development prompted further advancements to combat chlorine gas, flame throwers, and mustard gas. A few years later the Ebola plague in Africa drew attention to the need for electronic generator air filters / purifiers. Corona Discharge Systems (CDS) used a spark to convert oxygen to ozone and allowed victims the gift of clean air to breathe. </p>
<p>Over the last twenty years the terms MCS &#8211; Multiple Chemical Sensitivity and ETS &#8211; Environmental Tobacco Smoke have become an integral part of air filtration / purification technology. Early filtration focused on toxic chemicals, noxious gas, and foul orders while more modern filtration devices focused on mold, viruses, bacteria. The need for the air purification devices has expanded over the years to include protection against fabric chemicals, perfumes, building materials, pesticides, dust mites, pollen, food odors, along with the plain ole&#8217; desire for fresh air. </p>
<p>The 1980&#8242;s brought attention to the concept of a dust free environment. HEPA filters screen 99.7% of all 0.3 micron breathing offenders. Newer developments such as nebulizers for asthma patients and AHPCO &#8216; Advanced Hydrated Photocatalytic Technical Quad Catalyst Ultraviolet Cells have helped bring filtration rates to 99.7% of all microns 0.1 and larger. The Hepa air cleaner now act as air purifiers using granular carbon filters, among many other types, to cleanse the air of as many unwanted pollutants as possible. </p>
<p>The number of applications has grown over the years, along with the technology and development of the indoor air purifier and filtration process. Thanks to almost two hundred years of research, the end result is the fulfillment of the simple desire to breathe. </p>
