Tobacco.
Told you it would be controversial. Fact remains its true. For years Doctors prescribed it before the takeover of Medicine by Big Pharma. The tobacco leaf is known for it's anti-bacterial qualities. When you inhale the smoke you inhale these qualties. It also prevents the common cold, Alzheimer, Parkinson's, stops toothaces among other things.
As a test go ask any Doctor where Asthma and Bronchitas come from, more then likely they will say, we don't know. Yet any 5 year a old can tell you. He'll walk outside and point at the tailpipe of the family car.
Big Pharma controlled modern medicine is doing everything in their power to get rid of this ancient medicinal plant. Hence the bombardment of maniplated studies and TV ads.
Big Pharma is very happy that all of us are not making the connections between how poisonous our air is and the sheer number of diseases this creates.
Btw- Emphysema is a fungal infection of the lungs from Mold. Inhale anitfungal treatment and it disappears.
NOW, what to do about the addiction aspect? And the additives?
I don't believe the lies about addiction. Part of Big Pharma's plan to get rid of smoking. Additives: I smoke Natural American Spirits organic tobacco. What interesting is the other day I smoked their non-organic, non-additives brand and immediately got a slight headace. (Pesticides.)
I prefer to use medicinal plants that grow close to home...when I can.
NOT that I would smoke them, of course...
What is fascinating is ancient Indigenous people did just that, gained the medicinal qualities from plants by inhalling the smoke from them. This knowledge is not common, due I would say to the takeover by Pharmaceudicals. Did you know that t is now law that ONLY Drugs can heal? (FDA Law.)
I also like going to the previous messages of posters, particularly when they give an opposing message. So often I find that their opposing message is their one and only post...before or since. ...At least, under that screen-name.
I agree with you. Their responses are automatic, with no thought behind them. Straight from what the Brainwashing TV says. That tells me a lot.
