Allergies and respiratory diseases

Allergies and respiratory diseases – causes and treatment

What are allergies and respiratory diseases?

Allergies are excessive reactions of the immune system to otherwise harmless substances (pollen, house dust, pet hair, food). These often lead to respiratory diseases such as allergic asthma, chronic bronchitis, or sinusitis.

Respiratory diseases can also be triggered by infections, environmental toxins or autoimmune processes.

Common allergies & respiratory diseases

  1. Hay fever (allergic rhinitis)
  • Pollen allergy, watery eyes, stuffy nose, sneezing
  1. Bronchial asthma
  • Chronic inflammation of the respiratory tract with shortness of breath, coughing fits
  1. Chronic bronchitis / COPD
  • Persistent inflammation of the bronchi, often caused by smoking or environmental toxins
  1. Sinusitis (inflammation of the paranasal sinuses)
  • Acute or chronic inflammation of the paranasal sinuses
  1. Pulmonary fibrosis
  • Increased connective tissue in the lungs, often due to autoimmune diseases
  1. Environmental and pollutant allergies
  • Reactions to fine dust, mold, chemicals

Holistic therapy approaches

Since allergies and respiratory diseases are often based on immune system imbalances and inflammation, a combination of immune modulation, detoxification and regeneration makes sense.

1. Ozone therapy for immune regulation

  • Large autohemotherapy (GEB) → Regulates excessive immune reactions
  • Rectal ozone insufflation (ROI) → Anti-inflammatory & antibacterial
  • Ozonated infusions → Strengthens the respiratory tract and reduces oxidative stress
  • Inhalation ozone therapy (under medical supervision) → improvement of lung function

2. Infusion & nutrient therapy

  • High-dose vitamin C → histamine reduction & anti-inflammatory
  • Glutathione infusions → Detoxification & lung regeneration
  • Magnesium & amino acids → relaxation of the bronchi
  • NAD infusions → cell regeneration in chronic lung damage
  • Curcumin & Resveratrol → Powerful natural anti-allergy remedies

3. Detox & heavy metal elimination

  • Chelation therapy → Removes toxic metals that irritate the respiratory tract
  • ME2.Vie System Treatment → Cell Regeneration & Detoxification

4. Natural healing methods for respiratory regeneration

  • Leech therapy → Promotes blood circulation in the respiratory tract
  • Cupping (Hijama) → Supports mucus release & immune system
  • Autologous blood therapy → Reduces allergic reactions

5. Nutrition & Lifestyle Optimization

  • Anti-allergenic diet (high in Omega-3, antioxidants, low in sugar and dairy products)
  • Air purification & reduction of pollutants (air filters, sea salt inhalations)
  • Breathing exercises & physiotherapeutic measures (e.g. Buteyko breathing, yoga)

Individual therapy planning

Allergies and respiratory diseases are highly individual. A targeted combination of ozone therapy, infusions, detox, and naturopathic treatments can help alleviate symptoms and stabilize the immune system in the long term.
