Nebulizer Use and Testing (pg 9)
NEBULIZER USE
Nebulizer technology is developing to allow rapid efficient delivery without noticeable noise or vibration, eg AeronebGo (800-759-3038) or available at near cost through Key Pharmacy (800-878-1322). The AeronebGo is polycarbonate: thus durable with minimal off gassing. It is small, easily portable and has a small battery pack (e.g. for travel) and separate plug for electric outlets. It produces a mist fine enough to enter the body from the lungs as well as protect and help heal the smallest bronchial tubes and lung air sacs. See Dr. Ziem’s factsheet (TREATING CHEMICAL INJURY: STEP BY STEP) for details on how to use, clean and store the nebulizer.
TESTING
Testing helps make treatment with the neural protocol even more science-based. See website chemicalinjury.net to better understand why some tests (those mentioned) give useful results that other labs can easily miss. All labs mentioned here are CLIA certified.
Mineral levels should be measured and followed by intracellular (eg. RBC: red blood cells): Metametrix Lab tests a wider range of minerals (phone 800-221-4640) and lipid functional (eg. lymphocyte mitogenesis) through SpectraCell Lab (800-227-5227). “Mitogenesis” tells whether the cell has enough of each nutrient to divide and form new cells. This is essential even in healthy people. Nutrient levels must be ample for healing chemical injury. Functional nutrient testing is available for glutathione, lipoic acid, total antioxidant function, B12 (cobalamine), folate, B1, B2, B3, B6, selenium, coenzyme Q10, E magnesium and zinc are also recommended. At this time lymphocyte cell division functional testing is only available through SpectraCell Laboratories.
Medical office and home periodic self-testing of urine vitamin C is also recommended (Perque C strips: 800-806-8671).
Office and self-testing of urine pH using pH strips of 5.5 to 8.0 (from your drugstore) helps keep the body slightly alkaline. All body function works better this way. It helps prevent bone loss, mineral and protein loss and improves detoxification. See factsheet EATING FOR HEALING for more information.
