What is TB?

A contagious bacterial infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB). The lungs are primarily involved, but the infection can spread to other organs.

Tuberculosis is spread from person to person through the air. When people with TB in their lungs or throat cough, laugh, sneeze, sing, or even talk, the germs that cause TB maybe spread into the air. If another person breathes in these germs there is a chance that they will become infected with tuberculosis.

What causes it?

It is important to understand that there is a difference between being infected with TB and having TB disease. Someone who is infected with TB has the TB germs, or bacteria, in their body. The body’s defences are protecting them from the germs and they are not sick. Someone with TB disease is sick and can spread the disease to other people. A person with TB disease needs to see a doctor as soon as possible.

It is not easy to become infected with tuberculosis. Usually a person has to be close to someone with TB disease for a long period of time. TB is usually spread between family members, close friends, and people who work or live together. TB is spread most easily in closed spaces over a long period of time. The TB bacteria to become pathogenic and make a person sick will need a poor diet or a very stressed lifestyle. Healthy people although infected do not become sick. Your goal is to stay healthy.

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 2 Serrapeptase 80,000IU Tablets/Capsules with MSM and Trace Minerals x 3 times per day on an empty stomach and increase it to 4 x 3 if no relief within 7 days. Then gradually reduce to 1×1.

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.

What things can I do to help TB?

1. Serrapeptase Enzymes

Take Serrapeptase 80,000IU with MSM and Trace Minerals as recommended

2. CurcuminX4000
Studies show protective effects on the lungs as well as being anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal (all potential lung problems).

3. Basic Health Plan
Using the Basic Health Plan will ensure appropriate nutrients and actions are taken to help the healing process

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

5. Exercise
Exercise by walking fast for 60 minutes at least 3 times per week as energy and lung function returns.

6. Important Points

• It is important that patients with bronchitis stop smoking and avoid polluted places as much as possible, such as city centres or factories.
• If steroids/antibiotics have been taken for some time, advice is needed for actions to boost your own autoimmune system, such as Probiotics.
• It is important to follow a starch and dairy free diet.
• Drinking 6 large glasses of water per day is also critical.
