HOME REMEDIES AND PREVENTATIVE TREATMENTS:
These will be the main focus of this book, and will be covered in great detail in later
chapters. Our main focus will be on ensuring that nasal polyps shrinkage is a
permanent one, which is one limitation of conventional medicine. To do this, we will
focus on keeping the inflammation down, and this will make the growth of the polyps
virtually impossible. To shrink the nasal polyps in the first place, we will be using
natural and herbal extracts, combined with a dietary and lifestyle change. For
example:
•
Dab castor oil onto your polyps daily using a warm, wet towel. This will reduce
the size of nasal polyps as is warms up the nasal cavity.
•
Mix a quarter of a teaspoon of citric acid and a quarter of a teaspoon of
baking soda into warm water and swallow this between two and three times a
day. This increases the alkalinity levels of your body and it will also increase
oxygen intake, which has been shown to shrink polyp size.
•
Selenium and zinc supplements have also been known to decrease the size
of nasal polyps.
•
Pulsatilla 30g; take 5 pills twice a day for about 10 days and then wait a week
to see changes.
•
Sanguinaria 30g; take 5 pills twice a day for 10 days and then wait about 20
days to see the changes.
•
Mix warm water (about 240ml or 8 oz) with a small amount (a teaspoon more
or less) of sodium chloride and sodium bicarbonate. This will help clear the
sinuses and can also be use to prevent nasal polyps from.
In the event that you are an asthmatic, it is recommended that you stay away from
medicines that contain aspirin, as it will aggravate your asthma and will make
breathing difficult or cause general shortness of breath. If you are able to, it is best to
stay in areas where there is as little pollution as possible. Allergens and outside
irritants are the leading cause of polyps. If you had nasal polyps in the past and are
afraid of re-occurrence, it is also a good idea to stay away from highly polluted areas.
