Hello everyone! I started juicing recently to get rid of sinus and lung inflammation and to get off all the medication I am on. I have chronic asthma and sinusitis. I would love to not wheeze all the time.
To control my asthma, allergies and sinusitis I am on a list of medications including: antibiotics, steroids, inhalers, nose sprays and a handful of pills each day. I still wheeze every day and have chronic inflammation in my lungs and sinuses. I am only in my 30's!
Since the medication does not seem to be working and is filling me with toxins, I have decided to try a few different alternative medicines.
I am allergic to Brazil Nuts and I am lactose intolerant. I cut out all dairy and it seemed to help a little. I went to a Naturopath doctor who did some blood work on me and found that I also have an allergy to eggs, soy and dairy and a gluten sensitivity. I cut it all out of my diet. That seemed to help a little bit more, but I still needed something more.
I started researching cleanses and juicing. I came to find out that all the medicine I am putting into my body is causing more harm than good. I am building a toxic arsenal in my body which could be causing my symptoms. A deep cleanse would help me get back on the road to recovery.
Right now, I am on antibiotics and steroids for a sinus infection and asthma exacerbation. Last week, I started juicing once a day to get more nutrients into my body and flush the toxins out. This week, I began juicing twice a day. I still eat Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner but they are much lighter than before.
Next week, when I finish my antibiotics and steroids, I will began my 15 day fungal cleanse to remove any yeast, mold or candida that may be wreaking havoc in my system. I hope to replace one meal a day with a juice at that point.
Follow me on my journey to better health!
Before I began juicing, my blood pressure was around 126/76.
