LIFELONG LUNG POWER!
It may be easier than you think when you follow the proven health tips outlined in this special report!
      Since ancient times, physicians have recognized the life-sustaining importance of the lungs and other parts of the respiratory system. Without the intricate process of respiration, waste carbon dioxide in your blood could not be exchanged for life-sustaining oxygen. Yet none of your body’s systems have been so prone to illness and disease.
      Who hasn’t been plagued by a deep, burning cough that rumbles with thick, mucous congestion? Who hasn’t experienced the discomfort—and indignity—of a nose that runs like a faucet? Who hasn’t suffered from sinuses so inflamed and swollen that even the slightest movement is agony? Who hasn’t experienced
blocked bronchial tubes and a sore scratchy throat?
      At one time or another, we’ve all fallen victim to cold and flu symptoms. But there are those who suffer even more each and every day. Perhaps you’re one of the unlucky ones who fight a daily battle against chronic bronchitis, emphysema, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or constant respiratory infections.
      You’re not alone. There has been an unprecedented growth in the number of serious lung problems in the United States, most caused by two environmental culprits that work hand in hand to attack your lungs, nasal passages, sinuses, and

It is virtually impossible to avoid the environmental pollution and allergens that can cause respiratory problems and life-threatening diseases. That’s why it’s so important to take steps to cleanse, protect, and fortify your lungs with the right nutrients.

Editor’s Note:
     Until recently, the relationship between nutrition and respiratory disease has not received much attention from the medical establishment. But new evidence from molecular biology and epidemiological studies indicates that there may be a link between proper nutrition and the long-term prevention of many chronic lung ailments. Even smokers who get the antioxidant benefits of proper nutrition seem to have less incidence of lung disease.
     That’s why the researchers at the Institute for Vibrant Living have invested much time and effort in the development of a full-spectrum, supplement dedicated to lung health. So give your lungs the daily protection they need with SECOND WIND™. It could be the most important step you can take to stay healthy in a polluted world.
bronchial tubes. If not stopped, they can cause disease and shorten your life.

PARTICULATE POLLUTION AND ALLERGENS ARE MAKING AMERICA SICK TO DEATH!

     While modern life has brought many blessings, it has also been a curse. According to current American Lung Association statistics, pollutants made up of tiny solids and aerosols suspended in the air we breathe cause ...

INCREASED inflammation of lung tissue in otherwise healthy adults.
INCREASED severity of asthma attacks that require hospitalization.
INCREASED damage to the small airways of the lungs.
INCREASED risk of dying from lung cancer and other acute respiratory episodes.

     The truth is: DIRTY AIR CAN MAKE YOUR LIFE MISERABLE! Even if you don’t contract a fatal lung ailment, chances are you

already suffer from one of the following respiratory problems caused by auto exhaust, chemical emissions from factories, and smoke from smoldering landfills.

RAMPANT ALLERGIES!

     Did you know that allergies are out of control in America today? Otherwise healthy people are developing life-altering allergies by the millions.

     According to the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, allergies plague more than 50 million Americans—that’s more than half of the U. S. population! Allergies represent the 5th leading chronic disease in our country today. It is estimated that allergies cost our society as much as $7.9 billion per year ($4.5 billion spent on medical treatment and $3.4 billion in lost productivity).

ACUTE ASTHMA!

     Asthma is also on the rise. The incidence of this disease has increased 75% in recent years. Approximately 20 million people of all ages suffer from asthma in the United States. Asthma attacks now account for one quarter of all emergency room visits. Sadly, there are over 5,000 deaths annually from asthma attacks.

MUTANT FLU!

     Influenza, commonly called the flu, is also reaching epidemic proportions. Marked by high fever, chills, muscle aches, sore throat, and severe lung and bronchial congestion, new strains of the flu have become resistant to treatment because of our overuse of antibiotics, and particularly in elderly people, can cause death. The flu has


 
 
 
 
become such a national health concern that some immunologists fear an outbreak similar to the one that killed millions at the end of World War I.

THE ODDS ARE AGAINST YOU! IF YOU DON’T ALREADY SUFFER FROM RESPIRATORY PROBLEMS YOU PROBABLY WILL!

     Unfortunately, the bad air that’s killing us can’t be avoided. Outside, your lungs are treated to a toxic cocktail of city smog, belching incinerators, dust laced with fertilizers, and many pollutants too numerous to mention here. With every breath of lifegiving oxygen, you also get carbon, heavy metals, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides.

     And don’t think for a minute that you’re safe inside. Even the air in your home is tainted with pollution. Fumes from your carpet, furniture, and cleansers emit Benzene, Formaldehyde, Trichloroethylene, and other dangerous chemicals. Pet dander, spores in your heat ducts, and the microscopic feces of dust mites also pose a threat to your respiratory system. And then there’s radon, a deadly, invisible gas causing lung cancer, that seeps into many homes from the ground.
     Airborne pollution is an ever-present health hazard— inside and out— that causes your immune system to falter. It makes your nasal passages, bronchi, and lungs irritated, inflamed, and susceptible to infection.

     But the good news is ...

YOU DON’T HAVE TO SURRENDER TO LUNG DISEASE!

     There is a way to fight back!

The research scientists at the Institute for Vibrant Living (IVL) have developed an all-new nutritional supplement called SECOND WIND™. You won’t find more potent protection for your respiratory system. A unique formulation of 9 herbs and other natural ingredients, SECOND WIND™ ...

WORKS WITH EACH PART OF YOUR RESPIRATORY SYSTEM TO HELP YOU BREATHE EASY!

     Simply put, your respiratory system consists of three parts, the nose and nasal passages, the trachea and bronchi, and the lungs.

     Air enters the respiratory system through the nostrils where it is warmed, filtered, and moistened. The nasal passages are lined with a membrane that secretes a sticky fluid called mucous. Along with tiny “hairs” called cilia, the mucous is your body’s first defense against foreign invaders. Together, they trap dust, bacteria, and other contaminants before they can further penetrate your body.
     Next the air travels through the throat to the trachea, a cartilage tube, also lined with ciliated mucous membrane. Normally, what contaminants get by the nasal passages, are caught in the trachea and moved by the cilia back to the throat in the form of phlegm, ejected from the air passages and sometimes swallowed.

     The trachea divides into two tubes called bronchi that route air to each lung. The bronchi further divide and subdivide into smaller bronchial tubes that resemble the branches of a tree.
     Once the air reaches the alveoli of the lungs, tiny air chambers that resemble bunches of grapes on a vine, the oxygen

Indoor air pollution can cause or worsen symptoms of lung disease. Here are ...

6 Tips to Protect You and Your Family From Sick House Syndrome

KEEP YOUR HOME SMOKE-FREE. Tobacco smoke increases the risk of lung cancer, respiratory infections and other lung diseases.
CHECK FOR RADON. Radon is an odorless, invisible gas that can cause lung cancer. Check for the presence of radon with a home test kit or call a professional. If radon is present, you may need to install a special vent.
VENT COMBUSTILE GASES. Make sure your chimneys and furnace are properly vented. Use an exhaust fan over a gas stove. Don’t use portable kerosene heaters inside.
AVOID CERTAIN SCENTED CANDLES. Some manufacturers still use lead cores in their wicks. The lead particles can become airborne and inhaled.
LET YOUR HOME BREATHE Don’t keep your home sealed too tightly. Paint, carpeting, cleaning agents, and plastics can emit dangerous gases such as Formaldehyde.
GROW HOUSEPLANTS. NASA tests show that some houseplants actually remove dangerous gases from your home.


 
 
 
 

All-natural Nutritional Supplements May Reduce Certain Health Risks for Smokers!

The scientific evidence is irrefutable: smoking is very bad for your health, often leading to cancer, emphysema, and other chronic respiratory problems. If you’ve tried and tried to quit but just can’t, take heart. There’s an important step you can take that may lessen the damage caused by smoking: make SECOND WIND™ part of your daily routine.
     Like no other nutritional supplement on the market, SECOND WIND™ works in your body to help counter the negative and potentially deadly effects of smoking. For example, some research indicates that certain ingredients in SECOND WIND™ may actually offset the carcinogenic effects of smoking. Furthermore, these same ingredients may lessen smoking-induced attacks of chronic bronchitis and thin the thick mucous associated with emphysema.
     If you’re a smoker, do everything in your power to STOP. But if you can’t quit, at least give your lungs a fighting chance. Help fortify them with the right nutrition. Take SECOND WIND™ every day. It could make a big difference in the length and quality of your life.

is absorbed into the blood and carbon dioxide expelled when you exhale.

     With your next breath, the whole process is repeated. An average human takes 10 breaths a minute. This adds up to 300,000,000 breaths in a lifetime! That’s a lot of wear and tear on your respiratory system.

     Like many of our body’s remarkable life-sustaining systems, we often take the process of respiration for granted. You wouldn’t think of running your car for years on end without changing the oil and filters, inflating the tires, and keeping the engine in good repair. Yet, if you’re like most Americans, you don’t perform the routine maintenance on your respiratory system. The result?

YOUR LUNGS FALTER AND AGE PREMATURELY WHEN THEY DON’T HAVE TO!

     Like a car that gives out from pure neglect, if you don’t tend to your respiratory system, you’ll quite literally “lose your breath!” But it doesn’t have to be that way.

     Did you know that you don’t have to lose your “lung power” to aging? There are thousands upon thousands of people in their 70s and 80s who can run marathons, bicycle up mountains, bound up the stairs without wheezing, and have enough breath to blow a mean trumpet!

     Want to be one of them? Then ...

CATCH YOUR BREATH! TAKE THE SECOND WIND™ CHALLENGE AND LIVE LIFE TO ITS FULLEST!


 
 
 
 
     By making SECOND WIND™a vital part of your daily routine, you can take the steps necessary to improve your lung health for life—no matter what your age, no matter what your present physical condition. It’s never too late to start caring for your body as it cares for you!

     Neglect your lungs and you could put your overall health— and maybe even your life—in jeopardy. You’ve already read how pollution and allergens can cause illness and disease. You’ve also read how your respiratory system works. Now you’re about to discover exactly how the unavoidable contaminants in the air attack your respiratory system and how ...

SECONDWIND™CAN HELP REPAIR THE RESPIRATORY DAMAGE AND HELP PREVENT IT FROM HAPPENING AGAIN IN THE FUTURE!

     There are four basic interrelated problems that negatively impact your respiratory health:

1.) TISSUE INFLAMMATION.
2.) OVERPRODUCTION OF MUCOUS & IMPAIRED CILIARY FUNCTION.
3.) SMOOTH MUSCLE SPASMS AND IRRITATION WHICH CAN RESULT IN CHRONIC COUGHS.
4.) OXIDATIVE CELL DAMAGEWHICH CAN TRIGGER SERIOUS DISEASE.

     When foreign substances invade your body, your immune system attempts to surround and kill the enemy without a major battle. And most times it succeeds. However, all the pollution to which we are constantly exposed may cause the immune system to rebel. When that hap-
happens, things go wrong—terribly wrong.

     Harmless allergens become ninja warriors out to take you down. Bacteria seem to take on super powers of destruction. And viruses may infiltrate every fortress throughout your body. In response, your immune system lets loose with a barrage of antibodies and your respiratory system becomes a battleground. Small blood vessels called capillaries constrict and weaken. Tissue becomes inflamed. And you experience a chain reaction of misery.

     The inflammation leads to high fever, sore throat, and a tsunami of thick, disgusting mucous. In its normal state mucous functions flawlessly to help rid your body of foreign particles before they are inhaled into the lungs. But when the mucous membranes become inflamed and infected, they overproduce. The result? A thick, gooey obstruction common to sinusitis, post-nasal drip, congested bronchi, and lung infections such as pneumonia.

     In such a state, the cilia also malfunction. They loose their mobility—like cars stuck in a traffic jam—and can’t move the mucous out of the body.

     But your body tries its best to “get the traffic moving again.” This can result in spasms of the smooth muscle surrounding the trachea and bronchi. You end up with a hacking cough that you can’t seem to shake.

     But things can get even worse. If the infection settles in the lungs, shortness of breath, fluid build-up, and other lifethreatening conditions could develop.

“ I’m 58 years old and a 100-mile bike ride through the mountains is nothing for me since I discovered the secret to young lungs.”

At my age, I should be slowing down. Instead I have the lung power to pedalmy bike upmountain pass—something I’ll venture to saymost teenagers couldn’t do!

     What’s my secret? I exercise regularly to increasemy stamina, butmore importantly, I eat right. As a doctor, know that the right nutrition is essential to help keep my respiratory systemin peak working order.

     That’s why I suggest you try SECONDWIND™. With all the pollutants, allergens, bacteria, viruses, and other irritants in the air, SECONDWIND™contains the nutrients needed to help clean and protect your nasal passages, bronchi, and lungs. It’s a great way to help retard the aging process and keep your body young for life!”

     In many cases, what seem like temporary symptoms, can become a lifelong plague. The oxidative stress on your respiratory system produces dangerous free radicals which can mutate healthy cells to cause life-threatening lung diseases such as:

ASTHMA - a severe breathing disorder marked by spasms and constrictions in the bronchi.
EMPHYSEMA - a condition where the alveoli of the lungs are damaged to the point that they can no longer exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide.
CHRONIC BRONCHITIS - a condition where bronchial airways are inflamed and destroying and clearing mucous becomes difficult.

... and other respiratory problems leading to dysfunctional lung health.



     Why risk these killers without at least taking some precautions? Why put up with such severe allergies that they control what you can and can’t do? Why wake up every morning with a nagging cough? Why suffer through another winter that’s an endless nightmare of colds and flu? There is something you can do to help overcome what ails you now and combat future respiratory problems.
