In response to your post, I also have asthma. I developed it over a period of a few months and had to deal with changing my lifestyle. I was 20 yrs. old and a runner who could no longer breathe. Walking up a flight of stairs made me wheeze and cough until I was red faced and struggling. After surgery on my sinuses, several medications and steroids, I was no better and my doctors were puzzzled. I finally read about H202 and I also tried it in my nebulizer. I did a 50/50 mixture with regular store bought peroxide (as this is actually safer because food grade is very strong), and after two days of using this mixture, I could breathe, run, and smell unlike I could before. (I also suffer sever allergies that take away my sense of smell.) One week later I went for a check-up with my asthma specialist and my lung function had improved from 64% to 92%!!! I was not surprised though because I felt the changes. I still have to keep up with treating myself with H202 or else my symptoms begin to come back, but I am healthier and happier than before. H202 gave me back my life.

My 10yr old son who wheezes with breathing in cold air had an attack and seemed to worsen as the day progressed. Labored breathing with wheezing sounds scary. I already had a nebulizer machine in the house from years past using albuterol mixtures. I placed about 1/3 cup of water in a separate container and one drop of 35% food grade H202. Stirred it and then filled to capacity the nebulizer holding cup. After about 20 minutes he seemed to breath alot easier but not 100% to normal. He slept for an hour then was able to get up and guess what? No heavy breathing! A little wheezing but not as much as before. I was hesitant to try the H2O2 as so many precautions and warnings. I'm glad I only put one drop into a separate container with more water. One drop in the nebulizer cup (about 2 tablespoons capacity) would have been way too much.
