by Health PatioThis news from the FDA caught my eye because I take the drug Advair every day, and I have for years. I see the warnings that were given today were targeted at children.
Serevent and Advair were the subject of a review Wednesday by the agency’s pediatric advisory committee, which looked at the safety of products containing salmeterol. While clinical studies have showed all three drugs are successful at controlling asthma in the vast majority of patients, some have showed that salmeterol can cause severe - and sometimes fatal - asthma attacks in a small group of patients.
Breath is intimately connected to the autonomic nervous system and the mind. Disordered breathing is high on the triage list, because, as the American Lung Association, the oldest voluntary health organization in the United States, When You Can’t Breathe, Nothing Else Matters®.
Free! Breath training practice (Online Yoga Meditation and Relaxations ). A CD is available for purchase, however, several tracks are available for your use as you sit right there at your computer visiting Health Patio. I tried the 3 minute version, and of course I was interrupted LOL but after a false start I realized I needed to uncross my legs but once I was situated, I had three great minutes all in a row.
The breathing exercises, as you scroll down the page, once you click on the one you want, should start automatically, and then loop/repeat without ending. Practice with these tracks can take you from 7+ breaths/minute down to 3 breaths/minute. Amazing!
