	Emphysema - COPD Relief Treatment Remedies for emphysema COPD relief help with shortness of breath, wheezing, chest pain, coughs and bronchial lung congestion. What is emphysema? Emphysema is a condition that makes the act of breathing difficult because the lungs are not able to expand and contract properly. Symptoms of emphysema include shortness of breath, cough and a limited exercise tolerance. Healthy lungs are elastic and spongy with all the breathing tubes wide open. In emphysema this elasticity is gone. The small breathing tubes can't stay open all the time, making it hard for the air to move in and out. Also, the air sacs at the end of the tubes lose their shape, reducing the ability of oxygen to get into the blood. Emphysema and chronic bronchitis frequently co-exist together to comprise chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Emphysema causes a loss of elasticity in the walls of the small air sacs in your lungs. This loss of elasticity contributes to the narrowing of the airways. Emphysema is one form of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) - a slowly progressive disease of the airways that is characterized by a gradual loss of lung function. Chronic bronchitis, chronic obstructive bronchitis, or a combination of these conditions with emphysema also are forms of COPD. Tests in almost 9,500 adults aged over 40 found one in 10 had chronic obstructive respiratory disease (COPD), which causes breathing difficulties. They found 11.8% of men and 8.5% of women had moderate or higher stage COPD. There is a strong link with age with the risk of the disease almost doubling with every 10 years over the age of 40. Smoking, acute COPD attacks, and asthma are all associated with very low blood serum levels of antioxidants and evidence of increased oxidative stress. (Rahman et al. 1996) Emphysema Tips Take a variety of antioxidants: vitamins, flavonoids, selenium, zinc, fruits and vegetables on a daily basis. Exercise, at most any level, improves the oxygen utilization, work capacity, and state of mind of COPD patients. Exercise at least 30 minutes a day. It is as simple as walking for 10 minutes three times a day. Avoid overeating or consuming carbonated drinks, it may cause bloating which, in turn, will crowd your lungs and limit your capacity to breathe.

A November 2006 study found that there is no evidence that antibiotics are effective against most cases of bronchitis, and researchers recommended that doctors stop routinely prescribing antibiotics to treat them. But Richard Wenzel and Alpha Fowler, two doctors from Virginia Commonwealth University, said that in almost all cases bronchitis was caused by viral infections and did not respond to antibiotics, according to a report published in the New England Journal of Medicine. Wenzel said that about 70 to 80 percent of patients with acute bronchitis were prescribed antibiotics for treatment lasting 5-10 days but they found little evidence that the treatment worked. Proper respiration is important, because the lungs are where the blood stream receives the oxygen required for all metabolic purposes throughout the body. The lungs are the organs through which carbon dioxide is eliminated. Oxygen is the most important nutrient of all, and the only way that it can be obtained is from absorption through the lungs. Many people develop an excessive build-up of mucus in the sinuses and respiratory system. People who live near oil refineries and chemical plants, or work in areas that have known air pollution (most big cities) should make it a point to avoid exposure to air contaminants and seriously consider supplementing their diets with antioxidant nutrients, as well as Advanced Lung Formula.
