I just have a quick question, has anyone heard of or used a supplement called "Clear Lungs" ? Its an old Chinese herbal supplement that suppose to, yes you guessed it, clear out your lungs. The reviews on the GNC website sound pretty good. Its made by Ridgecrest Herbal

Here are some of the ingredients:

Active ingredients: (Homeopathic HPUS 30C each) Blatta Orientalis, Carbo Vegetabilis, Natrum Sulphuricum, Phosphorus.Purpose: Lung decongestant.

I am thinking about trying it because my chest still feels kind of stuffy

If you are currently taking any prescription drugs, it's best to consult your doctor before taking herbals, as these may interfer with your medication.

As to this particular herbal, I looked up each individual ingredient and discovered some...uh...very interesting facts, especially about blatta orientalis. Look it up and see how you feel about it.

The company has an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, and no complaints filed.

Still curious? Well, the least you can do is buy the smallest amount and give it a try.

Report back if you decide to sample this!

I know there is a lot of suplements that claim to clean the lungs but I do not know if they work or not. I read a lot about this trying to find something to help clean my lungs and what I found out so far is that eating pineaple, grapes and very green leaves helps you to clean your lungs. I have been drinking a shake that I make where I put pineaple, grapes, spinash, mint, ice and water. It taste great and I know if it do not help is not going to do anything bad to me either.

Storm is pretty smart! I don't know about this paticular "natural" cure, although it seems you have already discovered something you didn't like about it..but my Dr has warned me about several OTC herbals/vitiman/minerals that will impact my meds. Good luck! We have so much pollen in the air that I sound like a whistle when I breathe right now 😞
