Natural Treatments For Emphysema

Vitamin D

Many individuals with emphysema or similar conditions appear to lack in vitamin D. Doctors claim this can be for many reasons, including how it is more difficult to absorb vitamin D as the body ages and many patients are older, a lack of time spent outside, as well as deficiencies in the diet. Some reports show an increase in vitamin D is correlated with better lung function tests, although like the other supplements on this list, more research is needed. Only small studies have been conducted on whether or not vitamin D reduces the severity of emphysema and similar conditions, and while some results have been negative, given they are only small studies, more information is necessary (as stated).
