MUCOSAL MEMBRANE HEALTH: The Key to Preventing Inflammatory Conditions, Infections, Toxicity and Degeneration

by Case Adams, PhD ·

DID YOU KNOW THAT ALLERGIES, ACID REFLUX, SINUSITIS, ASTHMA AND OTHER CONDITIONS ARE OFTEN LINKED TO ONE COMMON ISSUE?

DO YOU HAVE ALLERGIES ALONG WITH OTHER CONDITIONS?

ARE YOU DEALING WITH MULTIPLE CONDITIONS?

PERHAPS AN INFLAMMATION PROBLEM?

OR PERHAPS AN “AUTO-IMMUNE” CONDITION?

DO YOU REALIZE HOW IMPORTANT THE HEALTH OF OUR MUCOSAL MEMBRANES ARE?

THE HEALTH OF OUR MUCOSAL MEMBRANES OFTEN DETERMINES OUR OVERALL HEALTH

OUR MUCOSAL MEMBRANE HEALTH RELATES DIRECTLY TO OUR ABILITY TO COUNTERACT INFECTIONS.

AND ALLERGENS. AND TOXINS.

THEY ALSO HELP US DIGEST OUR FOODS AND BREATHE THE AIR.

IN FACT, OUR MUCOSAL MEMBRANES ARE ONE OF THE KEYS TO VIBRANT HEALTH.

LEARN HOW TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR MUCOSAL MEMBRANES FOR LIFE – FOR LESS THAN THE COST OF A CUP OF COFFEE.

Description:

The mucosal membranes that cover our skin, sinuses, airways, digestive tracts and many other regions are critical to our health. Not only do they help protect our bodies from intruders and environmental toxins. They also provide many other critical functions, such as helping us digest our foods and helping us breathe. As a result, faulty or damaged mucosal membranes is also at the root of many serious health conditions, including allergies, asthma, COPD, GERD and others. This book illustrates the science behind our mucosal membranes: how they cause disease, how they can become damaged, and what we can do to repair them and keep them healthy. 317 Pages.
