[/quote] its your mucus-filled diet. toss the dairy and grains and watch your lungs improve. supplement iodine and watch them recover. nebulize colloidal silver and watch them repair and gain function and capacity. do this or be just another codpiece for ozzy. [/quote] I need your help to whoever sent this. I too supposedly have COPD and I do not want to take what the doctor has me on. The inhalers are so expensive and the side effects are worse then COPD itself. Can you point me in a good direction? [/quote]

original studies from the last 4 years...
more than 64 oz a day
colleagues found that folks who drank this level of soda had a higher prevalence of asthma and COPD than those who didn't drink any (14.7% versus 11.9% and 6% versus 4.2%, respectively).
In multivariate analyses adjusting for sociodemographic factors, intake of fruit and vegetables, and other life style factors, drinking half a liter of soda a day was associated with an odds ratio of 1.26 for asthma (95% CI 1.01 to 1.58) and an OR of 1.79 for COPD (95% CI 1.32 to 2.43) compared with never drinking soda.
