Lobelia Essence for Kidney Stones and Asthma

Lobelia Essence is a fantastic product by Nature Sunshine that helps to open up airways and relax muscles in the body.  I usually promote it in the office for people with asthma or chest tightness but it is also great for kidney stones!  Read below on how and what to take it for. 
Do not take more lobelia essence than recommended because it may cause an upset stomach. 

Ways to use it
Asthma- Do 10 to 15 drops under the tongue to help open up airways.  It works like an inhaler would.  If you feel like an asthma attack (or panic attack) is coming on or your chest is getting tighter do this immediately.  Follow up the next hour by doing 10 drops under the tongue.  You can also rub the liquid on your chest to help with breathing.  Rub directly on the skin or mix with a little bit of coconut oil. 

Its also great to do if you are having trouble breathing outside due to humidity, allergies or simply chest congestion due to a cold.  Do 5 drops under your tongue. 

Panic Attacks- Treat as if you would an asthma attack

Relaxation and sleep- Add 10 to 20 drops in a bath to promote relaxation.  You can also rub the liquid on your back over the spine (with a little bit of coconut oil) to help promote sleep. 

Kidney Stones- Do 10 drops under your tongue every 2 hours until pain subsides.  Drink hot water with fresh squeezed lemon through out the day.  Add apple cider vinegar and fresh garlic for even greater benefits and pain relief.   You can also rub the liquid on the middle and lower part of your back (where your kidneys sit) to allow the muscles and kidney to relax and help pass the stone. 

We recently had a patients husband do this and pass a kidney stone the size of a fire ant!
