Your Lungs and Respiratory System

Your Lungs and Respiratory System

All respiratory system diseases and illnesses that the water cures protocol helps will be covered here.

That Cough That Wont Go Away

That Cough: What Is It?

That Cough
Do you have that cough? You know, the one that hangs around for up to several weeks and robs you of your sleep. It seems like it is never ending. If you have it, then you may have already got your cough diagnosis. You may have been told it's chronic bronchitis. You may have been told you will have to live with it.

If you are a first-timer, you will be started with a barrage of antibiotics to find that they don't work, then to be told you have chronic bronchitis and you will have to live with it.

According to 'TheNNT.com' for those who received antibiotics for acute bronchitis, none were helped over all. This means that of the Number Needed to Treat, out of 100 people, none were helped. It was noted that there was a decrease the number of patients with cough at a follow up visit (NNT=6). There was also noted a decrease in the duration of cough, days feeling ill, and days of limitations in daily activities, approximately one half of a day for each.

On the other hand, the Number Needed to Harm, the antibiotics slightly increased the number of patients with adverse effects to 1 in 37 (NNH=37).

Some even get put on steroids, only to find they don't work.

For steroid use, more specifically, Glucocorticoids for Bronchiolitis (inflammation of the bronchioles), there was no benefit for hospital admission. So, the NNT was 1 out of none.

First consider the response from January, 2017.

Dear Water Cures, I wrote to you for advice at the beginning of the week. I had had a cough for six weeks and antibiotics and steroids wouldn't help. I can't believe the difference. I feel ever so much better. I am sleeping well and my cough is improving. What I didn't say was that I have MS, and now even my walking has improved. Thank you so much, I have been telling everyone to drink more water, and to go to your website. Thank you.

We have some theories on what it may be and what you can do.

What if There Was A Better Way?
A Huge Undertaking to Stop Coughing
We can help!

With so many developing that cough that won't go away around the world, we have decided to develop some outside the glass information on how to end the relentless coughing. We have reports of some being helped by the Water Cures where even steroids have not helped, Yet for others, the Water Cures alone does not help.

Because this is an area where we have helped so many, we are taking the time to develop this. It is a huge undertaking and will take time. If you want to help, we need copy editors to review what we are writing and help us get the information up faster.

Notable on Coughing: The most basic thing almost everyone needs to do when they get a cough is drink more water and take a pinch of unprocessed salt to dissolve on the tongue to get the water inside their bodies cells.

Cough Definition
Definition of cough: The bodies response to a stimulation that causes the lungs to force air through the throat with a short, loud noise. It can be caused by any of a number irritants. Sometimes the cough is a form of asthma called cough variant asthma. Even so, it still has a trigger, a causative agent or allergen.

Chemtrail Cough We propose a new possibility as to types of cough. It could be chemtrail cough. While there has been much debate on the reality of this vs the conspiracy theory behind it, in 2016, the US government admitted additives in jet fuel have been used for geoengineering.

Whether they are chemtrails or contrails, all agree that they at the least, jet engine exhaust has carbon dioxide, various oxides of sulfur, nitrogen, un-burned fuel, soot and even metal particles. These are in addition to the water vapor the engines produce. These particles promote the condensation. As the condensate disappears, the particles end up settling to the Earth and we breathe them in.

That Cough - Which One
There are a number of people who are coming down with coughs that take weeks if not months to go away. The following are the possibilities to help you become a better educated consumer of our healthcare system.

Could It Be?
Growing up with horses, you learn that if your horse should ever get moldy hay, they will develop a cough that will hang around for weeks. It will hurt you watching them and not being able to do anything. Could it be if you develop that cough that just wont go away, that you ate some moldy hay?


While this is meant as a joke, this could provide a clue as to what is causing your cough. In order to get rid of the cough, you may need to take something that will address inhaled mold.

Holistically Healing the 100 Day Cough
Some may prefer holistically healing the 100 day cough over traditional medical treatment.

Holistic treatments employ the art and science of healing the whole person – spirit, mind and body. By integrating both conventional and alternative treatments, it is possible to treat and prevent disease by promoting optimal health.

First a brief review of what the 100 Day Cough is. Then how to heal the hundred day cough naturally.

Warning: Check with your doctor or pharmacist before incorporating anything your doctor did not tell you to take. This is not intended to diagnose, treat or replace the advice of your healthcare practitioner. This does not apply to children. They need to see a qualified doctor if this is a problem.

What is the 100 Day Cough
The 100 day cough, also known as pertussis or whooping cough, is a contagious respiratory infection that can last for three months or more. It is caused by the Bordetella pertussis bacteria.

This illness is most commonly characterized by moderate to severe coughing spells, followed by a whooping sound after. Before the introduction of the pertussis vaccine in the 1940s, thousands of people died every year from this condition.

The 100 day cough became the designation because recovery can take anywhere from a few weeks to months. The cough slowly decreases in intensity and duration.

Prevention is considered to be the pertussis vaccine. The US version, called DTaP is combined with diphtheria and tetanus vaccines.

Whooping Cough Symptoms start similar to those of a common cold with a runny nose, low grade fever, and mild cough lasting a week or two. To confirm the diagnoses, mucus swabs from the nose and throat are sent to a lab to be cultured for the B. pertussis bacteria. Sometimes blood tests and chest X-rays may also be used. As it progresses, the cough gets worse with violent coughing spells. One of the symptoms include a thick mucus.

Medical treatment with antibiotics is most often the treatment in the early stages before the coughing spells start. Antibiotics also help with clearing it up.

The differentiating factor other than the pertussis bacteria is the coughing spell that are usually followed by a whooping sound while inhaling. The coughing spells can last a minute or more. One of the most common symptoms is to see lips and nails to turn blue due to a lack of oxygen.

Infants and children are unique in their needs and due to this, we do not consult on infants and children. We will say that young ones may have different symptoms. They may not have the whooping sound, rather, they may gasp for air. They may stop breathing altogether in a really bad coughing incident. For this reason, most children are hospitalized when they get whooping cough.

How to Heal the 100 Day Cough
Don't Just Drink A Lot of Fluids, Use the Water Cures Protocol
Whether you are using antibiotics or not, this will help you heal faster and shorten the duration of the cough.

Drink at least half your body weight in ounces of water every day. If you weigh 200 lbs, you need about 100 ounces of water daily. Divide this by 5 or 6 and this is how much you need to drink each time.

Contrary to what all the other sites and medical texts say, drinking filtered water is not only better, it is essential. The attitude of liquid from all sources is not backed by science and the research shows that not all liquids are absorbed the same. For instance, sugar laden liquids increase inflammation. Diet sodas cause numerous health issues. Fat free milk increases your risk for osteoporosis. All of these also affect your hydration status in a negative way.

Also the have a drink with every meal thinking is wrong. While you can drink with meals, it should not be water. This will only serve to dilute the acids that are used to digest your food to provide you with nutrition.

Eat Your Vegetables
While this wisdom from mom is not just good advice. We need to balance our intake of potassium with the sodium. Additionally we need magnesium. These are safer if taken naturally instead of by supplements.

There is a lot of information on eating the Raw Food Diet. While there are a number of health benefits from this diet, it is not for everyone. If you have gut issues, gut inflammation, then the raw diet could cause even more stress. It will be necessary to at least steam or cook on low heat the food you eat in order to improve your health.

Take Your Vitamins

Mom also had us take our vitamins. If you visit the Linus Pauling Institute or do a web search on Mega-vitamin-C you will see a wealth of information. The minimum vitamin C we need is about 1000 a day. Some suggest 6000 mg daily. While it will not necessarily shorten the duration of a cold, it is helpful in healing.

Dr Batmanghelidj suggested we needed up to 30 mg of zinc daily. While it is possible to get this from food, if you choose to supplement, make sure it is food grade supplements.

The Water Cures Protocol, eating your vegetables and taking vitamins are only the basics required to help speed up bringing to an end the 100 day cough. There is more you need to do.

Beyond the Water Cures
You will need....

something to sooth and relax the respiratory muscles and tissues

a mucolytic

an anti-inflammatory

an anti-biotic/ anti-viral

a lung cleaner

an antispasmodic

something to strengthen the immune system

an antitussive to eliminate dry cough

an expectorant


There are natural substances that accomplish all of the above needs. These natural treatments are safe and many have evidence based research to back their effectiveness.
