Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD

By Bonnie Jenkins, Advanced Natural Medicine
My mother-in-law smoked for nearly 35 years before she finally gave it up more than 15 years ago. The problem is, however, that the damage to her lungs was already done – and now she’s living with a diagnosis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, more commonly known as COPD.

The dog days of summer, with its thick and stagnant weather, can leave her literally gasping for air. She’s not alone. More than 30 million Americans live with a chronic lung disease and, for them, breathing can be a chore every day of the year.

No, you don't need any anti-inflammatory drugs or special supplements. Simply by including these anti-inflammatory foods in your daily diet, you can reduce your risk of these conditions and improve your health.
