Glutathione & Bicarbonate Nebulization
The other day I published a series of testimonies for Natural Allopathic Medicine but one of the most important ones that I meant to stress fell through the cracks and was not published.
Dear Dr. Sircus,
May I tell you that I have been nebulizing the glutathione with baking soda for my chronic bronchitis (I ordered the capsules) as mentioned in your Natural Allopathic E-book. I was astounded the first time I used it. I didn’t have any problems with coughing up a lot of mucus for a whole 24 hours. I am a massage therapist and this is very disconcerting. Thankfully I know all of my clients quite well and they understand my problem. I had a lot less discharge over the next few days after that. Today is good too. I took a couple of capsules orally. I will nebulize again later. I ordered the Glutathione from Dr. Brownstein also. He had the compounding pharmacy mix it up for me. The capsules with the baking soda seem to work best. I can’t tell you how many things I have tried and nothing has worked this well. Next I will try the clay to detox and cleanse my colon.

You can get a portable nebulizer like this one:

Reduced L-Glutathione Plus, which you can order at:
http://www.theranaturals.com/products.html
Dissolve 1/2 capsule of the glutathione in 10 milliliters of distilled water for the first treatment. This product already has sodium bicarbonate in it so you don’t need to add more. If you feel fine with the first application then increase the dosage for 1 capsule of glutathione for 10 milliliters of water and build it up to a maximum of 2 capsules. Please notice that this is a reasonably new treatment and dosages for each patient should be found by sensitive application and starting with minimum dosages and building quickly, especially if the situation is urgent. Be sensitive to the recipient’s feelings and reactions (if any) during and after each application. Dosages should be adjusted downward obviously for young children and infants. Suggested are 2 or 3 treatments a day.
In the second edition of Transdermal Magnesium Therapy (now in production) I wrote: Sometimes very sick people or even animals with a lung ailment do better when taking drugs by nebulization as opposed to orally, because then the embattled system doesn’t need to go through breaking down the medications in the stomach and then delivering them to the lungs through the blood stream. With nebulization medicines get sprayed directly onto the lung tissues where they can most easily be absorbed locally by the lung and brachial cells.
Dr. Shallenberger says, “A nebulizer is able to convert a liquid into tiny bubbles that are so tiny that they can only be seen under a microscope. When these bubbles come out of the nebulizer, they are so small that they look just like smoke. And that’s the magic of a nebulizer. The bubbles are so small that they can be inhaled deep down into the deepest regions of the lungs without any discomfort or irritation. It’s a great way for asthmatics to get the medication they need to open up their lungs.”
Few practitioners consider the systemic effects of nebulizers. When we hear from patients using nebulizers with pharmaceuticals that it makes them feel the side effects just as badly as when the doctors were giving the same drug intravenously in the hospital, we are actually hearing that the medicines are not only being delivered to the lungs but also being delivered directly into the blood stream and systemically into the rest of the body.
This is important to appreciate because it opens a wonderful delivery system that is important for certain populations like infants, children, intensive care patients and to all those who are trying to care for themselves or loved ones at home. And that’s when Dr. Shallenberger thought, “Why not use the nebulizer delivery system to deliver treatments not just to the lungs but to the whole body?”
Most of the published research about nebulization is on standard usages like asthma but this delivery system can be used to treat lung cancer, pneumonia, tuberculosis, as well as the influenza, chemical poisoning, and actually any syndrome requiring the administration of a medicinal. For pediatricians and parents nebulizers are a God send because our babies cannot pop pills and we don’t really want to be sticking needles in them every day. Transdermal medicine offers the most to the world of pediatrics with the administration of medicines through their baths and their breathing.
The great strength of nebulizers though is their capability of delivering medications and moisture directly to the tracheobronchial tree. Contrary to other treatment options, higher concentrations in respiratory secretions can be achieved with aerosol therapy. With the use of this localized delivery system effective antimicrobials can have a direct effect on surface organisms in the bronchial system.
1) Nebulization thins secretions & mucus making it easier to expel pulmonary secretions
2) Nebulization makes coughing easier while lessening the need to cough
3) Nebulization keeps your windpipe & trachea lining and stoma moist & healthy
4) Nebulization moistens the air that goes into your lungs
5) Nebulization hydrates & moisturizes your nasal passages, mouth and throat
Nebulizers are good for young children, people who have trouble using metered dose inhalers, and people who have severe asthma. Within 10 to 15 minutes, the medication is used up and symptoms are gone, or prevented for six to eight hours. Even babies can breathe the mist and nebulizer treatments are fast becoming pediatrician-approved alternatives to over-prescribed antibiotics.
This material is in my magnesium book because high grade magnesium oils can also be nebulized directly into the lungs. Iodine as well is easily nebulized though extra care needs to be taken with iodine which is taken in almost instantly because of its high evaporation rate.
Special Note: Some research has found that inhaling glutathione in mildly asthsmatic people may cause bronchospasm due to sulfite formation. The connection to good glutathione levels is crucial in asthsma, but needs to be weighed against the risk of bronchospasm when inhaled. Caution must be used at all times and glutathione levels may be more safely raised in asthsmatic people by oral or other means. Proper medical supervision is advised at all times when athsma is a risk so as not to cause undue stress on this very sensitive bronchial tissue.

Hello,
My father has pneumonia as well as a tumour (adenocarcinoma) in his left lung. We are currently nebulizing colloidal silver 2 x day. Do you recommend nebulized glutathione w/ baking soda as well as magnesium and iodine for him or just one of these?
Thank you,
Claudine
Dear Claudine,
Dr. Sircus often recommends a combination of things on his protocol for nebulization, including iodine, baking soda, magnesium. and glutathione.
the specific combination would depend on your father’s particular circomstances.
I am asthmatic for last two years due to the pollen allergies. It is seasonal and affected mostly in start of winter. I have changed the city due to this allergy but whenever I travel in that area I face the bronchial stiffness.
To Breaking news,
You would benefit from using magnesium, sodium bicarbonate and either spirulina or the superfood Rejuvenate which Dr. Sircus recommends…..all protect against allergies.
Hi, I have Dr. Sircus’s first book about Transdermal Magnesium, but don’t recall info about nebulizing it for asthma. Can you please tell me the protocol for nebulizing it and baking soda for asthma, please. I have a regular nebulizer that I bought to use with albuterol.
thanks,
Joyce
Joyce,
see if the information in this essay on nebulizing medicinals helps you any:

have late stage COPD and need to get off predesone. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Mike
Dear Michael,
To get off of Prednisone you need to carefully titrate the dose down., Under no circumstances should you stop this drug suddenly as you would put yourself in danger. This requires being under a doctors supervision. Please consider a private consultation with Dr. Sircus to walk you through this and get you on a better protocol for whatever you are having difficulty with. Each case is different and he does not give personal advice unless he is aware of the person’s specific condition and medical history.
If you wish, you can schedule an appointment with Dr. Sircus by writing to: [email protected]
I want to nebulize for radiation defense for our children, I am thinking Green Tea extract and/or baking soda… would this be an effective therapy? How often should this be done in a situation of continual low-dose radiation?
Dear Shanna,
First bathing in sodium bicarbonate baths has been shown to be highly effective in removing many forms of radiation and pollution and probably is safer for a child with no lung condition needing treatment.
Nebulizing sodium bicarbonate is a little more risky and should be undertaken with caution especially with children. It is still only an untested treatment. Dosing for this is not set in stone.
In general various doctors recommend:
The bronchial secretions during attack of bronchial asthma are acidic and the acidity imparts stickiness to the secretions and moreover there is high level of neuraminic acid, which possibly correlates with the stickiness. Thus sodium bicarbonate is an excellent choice for nebulization offering it’s powerful and instant pH changing effects. Dr. Tullio Simoncini recommends aerosol use of bicarbonate for lung and bronchial adenocarcinoma. He recommends putting 1 soupspoon sodium bicarbonate in ½ liter water and inhaling it with a fast inhaler in half an hour. Six days on six days off when in IV break phases.
Dr. Lewis Nelson, a specialist in emergency medicine says, “Nebulized sodium bicarbonate has been shown to provide symptomatic relief in patients exposed to chlorine, and it is probably useful with all irritant gases that liberate acid. Through a neutralization reaction, the damaging effects of the acids are limited. Nebulized sodium bicarbonate should be used in concentrations of less than 2% (which generally means about a 4:1 dilution of standard 8% sodium bicarbonate).”[9]
You can mix 1.5 tsp. in a cup of pure water, and add this solution to the fill line of your nebulizer. Once a day.
Depending on the level of radiation this can be done multiple times/week or probably daily if contamination is VERY high. Keep a watch on pH as alkalosis could become a major problem.
I can’t seem to get in touch with “Thera Naturals” as they never answer the phone and they still haven’t answered my email. Is there another company we can go to that sells a comparable product which contains reduced l-glutathione and baking soda ?
Thanks for the great info Dr. Sircus.
John.
I read this some where else but the poster was very biased. Thanks for the info.
Good day, I became looking for Glutathione & Bicarbonate Nebulization | Dr. Mark's Blog when I encountered a web page. Say thanks for sharing this excellent facts. Many thanks!
Dear Mr. Sircus,
I read your excellent article on Iodine and Influenza. I would you like to ask you a few questions, please, and would be very grateful for your reply.
I live in Mexico, and the only two forms of iodine readily available in stores: one is the usual tincture of “black iodine” (“tintura de yodo negro”) that is used as an antiseptic, containing 2 gm. of iodine per 100 ml. I assume that this can be used to for water purification purposes? May I ask how much you would use per liter for such a purpose. Would this serve more or less as a supplement as well?
Also available is what they call “rabano yodado,” which is a syrup containing an extracts of radish, watercress, dried sweet clover, and bitter orange peel, and peppergrass. Also .13 gm. iodine and .08 gm potassium iodide per 100 ml.
What would be a “normal” dose for a healthy adult of this–i.e. mg/ml?
Finally, a very interesting remark for me was this:
“I have suggested that people put iodine into a nebulizer for aerosol treatment for transdermal effect into the lung tissues in the case of lung cancer, emphysema, asthma and tuberculosis. I make the recommendation to do the same with magnesium chloride, sodium bicarbonate and glutathione.”
Is there any literature on preparing such a mixture–or perhaps the iodine is enough? Given what I have available, could one use tincture of iodine in a nebulizer? I am mildly asthmatic, and would be grateful for any relief.
I hope to hear from you, and thank you again for your very helpful and interesting article We went out at once and bought the “rabano yodado” syrup, and for starter (until I hear from your advice) we are each taking one tablespoon daily, which I calculate is roughly 7 mg. daily.
With all good wishes,
Gustavo Polit
Dear Gustavo,
Many of the tinctures of iodine are NOT suitable for ingestion or inhalation as they are poisonous to our systems. You must be very careful what you are using and we are not familiar with these iodine preparations you have available in Mexico so we cannot advise using them. YOu would be better off ordering Nascent iodine over the Internet as this is a safe preparation.
Please see Dr. Sircus Article on safety of iodine at: http://blog.imva.info/medicine/iodine-phobia-salt-truth
You can order Nascent Iodine from LL’s Magnetic Clay and they will ship to you in Mexico.
And please read Dr. Sircus’ book on Iodine available on the publications site.
Sincerely,

Mark,
In addition to the nebulizer approach, I would definitely encourage the drinking of what I’ve come to call the “Magic Juice Combo”, i.e. half orange juice and half ruby red grapefruit juice. You can read more details at http://www.angelfire.com/oh4/befree/MagicJuiceCombo.html . There you’ll read about a man who had walking pneumonia and got over it in less than 18 hours. You’ll also read about a man whose arthritis was completely gone after only 5 weeks of daily drinking just a small amount of the Magic Juice Combo.
One important note: the orange juice and the ruby red grapefruit juice must be 100% juice, NOT the “juice drinks” that have other ingredients such as sugar, and/or other juices. Use only 100% orange juice and 100% ruby red grapefruit juice, and do not pre-mix. Just pour half a glass of each immediately before drinking. And be sure to read the two important updates shown near the top of the page at http://www.angelfire.com/oh4/befree/MagicJuiceCombo.html .
Amazing. Lastnight, I was studying the same neulizers that Dr. Sircus mentioned on the very same link. I’m also testing “Smokeless Cigarettes” to deliver medicine and have a link for those that want to learn more about these small vaporizers.
The Aeroneb has a three- to fivefold higher efficiency for delivering drug to the lungs than conventional jet or ultrasonic nebulisers. A modified version of the Aerodose Inhaler is able to deliver insulin with a similar metabolic activity as insulin given by subcutaneous injection.
See http://www.touchbriefings.com/pdf/14/lth031_t_Omron.pdf and http://www.nhaler.com/instructions.html
Please consider this, if you are nebulizing Nascent Iodine, you may want to consider suspending it in Magnesium Oil before adding it to your sterile water as this will preserve the Iodine until it is delivered.
If you have a microscope, please confirm my suggestion as the Iodine should suspend in Mg indefinitely and I’m not certain the same is true when H2O is added.
Doc Sircus, please confirm and feel free to add this in your book.
I have bronchial asthma from a kitchen fire years ago—-i hate the drugs they put me on steroids being one—–and they do not even work that well any more
my lungs are fine-it is my bronchial tubes that were damaged—-will the above help my condition ?
thank you
Yes Pauline,
You should get onto Dr. Sircus entire protocol to help your asthma. Magnesium and iodine will also help you. But be sure to read the caution about nebulizing glutathione when you have asthma. See the special note at the end of the essay.
