How Does Natural Home Cures Himalayan Crystal Salt Help With Chronic Respiratory Illness
N othing is more essential to life than oxygen, and yet, for millions of people with chronic respiratory illness, the simple act of breathing can be a taxing ordeal. Whether it be asthma, allergies or a respiratory infection, Natural Home Cures Himalayan Crystal Salt can help. Salt therapy otherwise known as halotherapy,(1) has been around for hundreds of years but until relatively recently modern science has taken little notice of it.
A respiratory infection is localized in the respiratory tract. The tract is divided into three segments: upper tract, airways, and lungs. The upper tract is made up of the nose and nasal passages, the paranasal sinuses and the throat. The airways are comprised of the voice box, trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles.The lungs encompass the respiratory bronchioles, alveolar ducts, alveolar sacs and the alveoli. Respiratory infection symptoms range from mild to severe: heavy chest, pained breathing, difficulty in catching your breath and cough.(2)
Chronic respiratory illness can have many cases but two consequences of such disorders are low blood oxygen saturation and fatigue. The trace element iron is essential in the formation of hemoglobin which is the compound that carries the oxygen we breathe throughout our body. Thus, iron supplementation may help to optimize hemoglobin production and reduce feelings of fatigue. To generate energy on a cellular level the trace elements magnesium, sulfur and phosphorus may help: these three trace elements are integral to the formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) which is what the cells in the body use for energy. Optimizing the ATP creation process may increase individuals’ subjective feeling of energy especially in those struggling with low oxygen saturation.
Respiratory problems and salt therapy were first linked by Western medicine around World War
Two,(3) when people using salt caves as bomb shelters found that their asthma, allergies, bronchitis and other chronic respiratory illness problems were miraculously cleared up after many hours spent in the caves.(4) Scientists deduced that it was the natural salt mixed in with the humid air that was clearing up the infections. How does it work? Salt has antibacterial and antiviral properties - not table salt mind you - but natural salt like Natural Home Cures Himalayan Crystal Salt. When breathing in the salt mixed with humid air, it is embedded deep within the lungs. Once in the lungs, the salt works its magic and clears up any infection present.
You can mimic the environment of salt caves at home by simply making a brine solution with hot water and placing it in a humidifier. Once the room is saturated with the salty air, sit in a comfortable position, relax (put on some relaxation music if that helps) and breathe deeply. Repeat this process every day for an hour (or more if you have the time) and your respiratory problems should start to fade away. Don't have a humidifier? You can achieve close to the same effect by taking a small container of brine solution into a hot shower and breathing in deeply as the salt mingles with the humid air.
If you think you'll have trouble relaxing, think again. An added benefit to using Natural Home Cures Himalayan Crystal Salt is that it balances your body's energy field which puts you in a calm and peaceful state of mind. A word of warning with halotherapy, you MUST use good quality, non-refined salt such as our Natural Home Cures Himalayan Crystal Salt. Table salt will do nothing for your condition and, in fact, may make it worse because table salt has been refined and processed to such a degree that the body actually treats it as a poison. For example, when you ingest table salt, your body surrounds the salt with water and binds it, then sends it to the kidneys and into the bladder where it is passed out of your body as urine. Natural Home Cures Himalayan Crystal Salt doesn't require the use of excessive amounts of water to process because it balances your body's fluid levels as opposed to depleting them! If you suffer from respiratory issues, harness the benefit of Natural Home Cures Himalayan Crystal Salt.
Natural Home Cures Himalayan Crystal Salt Product Reviews

“I Would Recommend Your Product To Anyone Experiencing Asthma Or Respiratory Distress!” I had really bad asthma symptoms after having a bad bout of bronchitis last fall. Whenever I'd try to clean the dust around the house, I began to cough uncontrollably. Wearing a dust mask provided only a marginal barrier. However, after using your Natural Home Cures Himalayan Salt, the coughing was significantly reduced. Even more noteworthy, since I have been taking your Natural Home Cures Freeze Dried Nopal Powder Capsules in combination with your Natural Home Cures Himalayan Salt, I've achieved even better results! |

“I Am No Longer Using My Inhaler!” I am a lifelong asthmatic and I have tried just about everything to resolve my condition. I take a daily steroid inhaler, and, on average, use my albuterol rescue inhaler probably 4-5 times daily and during the night. After a horrible few weeks of struggling to breathe as I was getting over a cold, my quest for relief led me to your Natural Home Cures Himalayan Salt and your Natural Home Cures Freeze Dried Nopal Powder Capsules. After reading a few articles about it, I decided to give them both a try. I noticed results immediately, although I wanted to wait before telling you just in case this was a placebo effect. After a week of using your Natural Home Cures Himalayan Course Salt, I noticed a significant improvement. However, after I started taking your Natural Home Cures Freeze Dried Nopal Powder Capsules in combination with your Natural Home Cures Himalayan Coarse Salt, I am no longer using my inhaler! I don't know exactly why this works. Some theorize the salt draws water into your lungs and helps the mucus lining do its job properly. Possibly, the beneficial properties of the salt neutralize the bacteria and irritants in the lungs. All I know is that I truly notice a difference, and didn't think I would. As an added bonus, one 2 lbs bag of your salt typically lasts a couple of months. So it's really inexpensive and while my family does not suffer from asthma, they benefit from their food tasting so much better since I got rid of the poisonous white table salt. Since I am not sure if it is the Natural Home Cures Himalayan Crystal Salt or the Natural Home Cures Freeze Dried Nopal Powder Capsules or the combination of both I'll give the Natural Home Cures Himalayan Salt 4/5 Stars. |

“I Will Continue to Use Your Natural Home Cures Himalayan Crystal Salt for Its Variety of Uses” Growing up as a kid with asthma, I struggled to catch my breath especially when I started playing sports in high school. I hoped that I would eventually "outgrow" my chronic breathing problems but there didn't seem to be much hope of that happening. With my busy schedule, I have little time for the doctor appointments that are necessary to ensure the refills of my prescription inhalers. So when my girlfriend told me about the medicinal benefits of Natural Home Cures Himalayan Salt - she makes a sole solution relieve her minor irritable bowel syndrome - I was intrigued. Well, I checked out your website and found that the Natural Home Cures Himalayan Rock Salt could be used in a humidifier and thought it was worth a shot. After putting some of the salt into the humidifier at night, the next morning, a lot of the mucus and phlegm in my lungs come up. I coughed it out and about 10 minutes later I was fine. I almost felt as rejuvenated as when I take a prescription inhaler! The only difference, in my opinion, is while taking prescription inhalers, the medicine feels that it "stays" in your lungs for a long period of time (I am talking about rescue and long-term inhalers.) This product may not be a cure for breathing problems, but it does provide temporary relief. My girlfriend and I will continue to use your Natural Home Cures Himalayan Salt for its variety of medicinal uses. |

“Your Natural Home Cures Himalayan Crystal Salt While It Does Not Work As Long As Dristan But It Works Even Better!” I often found myself using a lot of Dristan nasal spray and felt that it was doing more harm than any good for me. Sure it worked, but I wanted to find something more natural. I came across the Natural Home Cures Himalayan Crystal Rock Salt website and decided to purchase the salt after reading some testimonies and learning about the beneficial properties. I made a nasal rinse from the sole solution and I am happy to report a great improvement! Now I carry a small vile of the sole salt solution everywhere I go. Your Natural Home Cures Himalayan Crystal Salt may not work as long as Dristan but it does give me better relief without the side effects. I will continue to be a customer. |
