As an asthma sufferer, I have done much research and no HMD or Naturopathic practitioner has ever said there is a cure for it. This is a pretty strong statement with no testimonials or research data to consider. While I can definitely see the terapudic value in pared use with other modalities (natural), I am skeptical about the claims being made. My hopes have been dashed repeatedly by claims made from Lobelia to Sovereign silver, none of which live up to their reputation. While they have incredible properties and are certainly useful in many areas, they are not miracle workers as the testimonies would suggest - especially I where asthma is concerned. If anyone has actually read this post and would care to address my concerns I would be extremely grateful.
