On a more scientific note. If you look at a few studies done on particle deposition and retention in asthmatics (and those with emphysema), the results suggest the same or in some cases better clearance than those with normal lungs. There is a lot we do not know and I suspect it'll be many years before we do.Tony

Tony,

That is really interesting info. Can you point me as to where I may find more info on this?

The problem is that all the folks involved with aluminum were overexposed and

ended up with Alzheimer's - so they couldn't pass on the info. - Sorry ya'll,

had to have a little fun with that.

By the way - was that a-lu-min-um or al-u-min-ium?

Re: Re: Asthma report

Stuart,

I have an interesting story to add to this anti biotic and divalent

metal - anti mold growth treatments.

Years ago, inhaling aluminum dust was a treatment (not

widespread-before antibiotics) for silicosis and other lung problems.

As we know, Pb, Cr, Cu, Silver, Ti, etc and other metals have anti -

mold and bacteria properties.

So was this " aluminum dust " treatment, an antibiotic treatment? An

interesting historical question.
