But because of her attention to detail she’s able to cut out the
nonsense and misleading advice we often get and, instead,
outline the simple but direct actions we can take to completely

Why don’t doctors push harder on the lifestyle
pathway out of illness?
There’s two reasons:
First, patients – however ill – are reluctant to make the eyort to
heal themselves of even the worst diseases.
Some of us try, then give up. Some of us don’t try.
I’m the same. I only acted because I couldn’t bear the thought of
how ill bronchitis would eventually make me.
Second, culturally we expect a pill or a potion to magic away our
illness.
We pay our taxes and insurance so when we’re ill it’s the hospital’s
job to make us well again, right?
Again, that used to be me.
Although not any more.
Once I knew how I got ill I was able to do the job myself. SImply
and naturally.
We have bronchitis because our immune
system is attacking our lungs
At its heart CB is an in}ammatory disease.
What actually is in}ammation?
If you stub your toe or get an insect bite or catch a virus… it’s the
immune system that kicks in to |x the ayected area.
