Exercise-induced brochospasm or E.I.B. presents itself
with acid retention symptoms of shortness of breath,
and/or an elevated respiratory rate and wheezing, similiar
to an asthma attack. However, many athletes will also
experience decreased stamina, or difficulty in recovering
from exertion compared to other team members, or paroxysmal
coughing from an irritable airway all caused by increased
metabolic, dietary, respiratory acidosis.
Consequently, a potential for under-diagnosis exists because
current medical-savants are not testing for dietary,
metabolic and respiratory acidosis. Measurement of airflow,
such as peak expiratory flow rates, the pH of blood,
saliva and urine, measurement of blood plasma oxygen,
blood plasma carbon dioxide and blood plasma sodium
bicarbaonte can be done inexpensively and may prove
helpful in determining dietary, metabolic and/or
respiratory acidosis caused by over-exercise, and an
acidic lifestyle and diet.
While the potential triggering events for E.I.B. are
well recognized by current medical savants, the underlying
pathogenesis is poorly understood because of the lack of
recognition of latent tissue acidosis caused by an acidic
lifestyle and diet leading to dietary, metabolic and/or
respiratory acidosis.
E.I.B. usually occurs after at least several minutes of
vigorous, "aerobic" activity, which demands that normal
nasal breathing be supplemented by mouth breathing due to
to build of respirator acids likecarbon dioxide and the
lack of oxygen to the lungs, blood and then tissues. The
mouth inhalation of air due to the need for more oxygen
and the release of carbon dioxide seems to generate
increased blood flow to the linings of the bronchial
tree, resulting in water retention to buffer the
increased levels of carbon dioxide leading to edema.
Constriction due to excess acids in these small airways
then follows, worsening the degreeof obstruction to airflow.
There is increasing evidence that the smooth muscle that
lines the airways becomes progressively more sensitive to
changes that occur as a result of injury to the airways
from dehydration and acid build-up in the connective tissues
due to an acidic lifestyle and diet. The acidic chemical
mediators that provoke the muscle spasm is the resultof
acidic build-up in the connective and fatty tissues and the
body's inability to remove acidic dietary, metabolic and/or
respiratory acids out through the channels of elimination
efficenctly - especially through the lungs and then mouth
and/or nose.
The treatment for E.I.B. is simple, effective and clear by
improving blood and lymph circulation, opening up the channels
of elimination through the bowels, lungs, pores of the skin
and through urination, building healthy blood all with an
alkaline lifestyle and diet as outlined in the pH Miracle
revised and updated book or audio. For more information
