Asthma

Introduction 
It is essentially a condition of the immune system with the air passages reacting to one or several possible allergies.

How do people contract it?
Although pollutants are often the cause, people can contract it through foods and consumed chemical substances. If you cannot change your polluted environment or you do not consider this to be the primary cause, then it is certainly worth considering dietary changes and introducing additional nutrients that are known (from published research studies) to help enhance an immune response.

Before you start 
We recommend that you undertake our Detox Formula which will cleanse your body and aide your guts ability to absorb the nutrients within the Disease formula. It will also help replienish the intestinal tract with healthy flora and enhance your overall health and wellbeing. 

It is of particular benefit in today’s environment with our increased exposure to harmful toxins from so many sources. It is our recommendation to pre-empt any dietary/nutritional program with a cleanse, and to repeat it twice per year.
