A nebulizer is a machine used to change liquid medication into a vapor that you can inhale. It works by pumping pressurized air through the liquid to form a fine mist, which can then be breathed in through a mask or mouthpiece.

For people with lung problems – pneumonia, asthma, inflammation, emphysema or cystic fibrosis, – or even for coughs, colds and flu. A nebulizer is a painless way of getting medications deep into the lungs, easing the conditions and helping to regenerate and heal at a rapid rate. Scientific tests have shown that nebulization is just as effective as certain drugs, with the added benefit of no side effects. Adding glutathione reduces oxidative stress, decreases inflammation, and modulates T cell responses in the lungs. Magnesium, sodium bicarbonate, colloidal silver and hydrogen peroxide are additional nebulizing options for breathing problems.
