Asbestosis & Dust Diseases

Asbestosis and Other Dust Diseases

 

What is it Asbestosis?

Asbestos can cause asbestosis, a scarring of the lungs that leads to breathing problems and heart failure. Workers who manufacture or use asbestos products and have high exposures to asbestos are often affected with asbestosis, who develop increasing breathlessness often with cough, sputum and weight-loss.

One of the diseases associated with asbestosis is lung cancer and this usually occurs in the asbestos worker who smokes cigarettes. In fact the risk of the asbestos worker who smokes is 90 times more likely than the non-asbestos, non-smoking worker.

Another rare but serious malignant disease, mesothelioma of the pleura, is often an asbestos related disease. In contrast to asbestosis which depends on the dosage of exposure to asbestos fibers, the malignant pleural tumour, mesothelioma, is not necessarily related to heavy exposure to asbestos fiber.

Other Dust Diseases

Asbestosis caused by inhaling asbestos fibers in the mining or milling of asbestos, in the textile, cement and insulating industries.

Berylliosis caused by inhaling beryllium dust.

Baritosis, Siderosis, Stannosis caused by inhaling dusts of barium sulphate, iron oxide (arc-welding fumes) or tin oxide respectively.

Coal Workers’ Pneumoconiosis caused by inhaling coal dust.

How can Serrapeptase Help?

Serrapeptase helps immensely as it clears out all of the inflammation, mucus and dead/scar tissue. By clearing away this problem tissue it enables the bodies own healing system to replace it with healthy tissue and better lung function as a result.

How many do I take?

Start with 3 Tablets of Serrapeptase x 3 times per day on an empty stomach and increase it to 4 x 3 if no relief with 7 days. Then gradually reduce to 1 x 1.

Can I take too many tablets or can it interfere with any drugs I am taking?

No. It has been used for over 25 years with no side effects reported.

A recent testimony

“I can’t tell you what a difference those tablets have made to this household”, smiles Mrs Maher. “They’ve kept the disease at bay. Without them he just wouldn’t be the here”

4. Basic Health Plan

Using the Basic Health Plan on page 105 will ensure appropriate nutrients and actions are taken to help the healing process

5. Oxygen Promoting Enzymes

Improve oxygen absorption, using Oxygen Promoting Enzymes, or breathing exercises to retrain the proper function of breath back to diaphragmatic breathing.

6. Exercise

Exercise by walking fast for 60 minutes at least 3 times per week.

7. Water Drinking

Drinking 6 large glasses of water, with a pinch of bicarbonate of soda in each glass per day is also critical.
