How much do you feed? What make etc?
My 6year old had lung inflammation and increased mucous secretions last year brought on by pollen allergies and Im determined to do everything I can to prevent it happening again this year. He's currently fit and healthy (and doing his first intro next month) but if I can do anything to prevent a recurrence of last year I will!
Iv been told linseed is very good for respiratory allergies and wondered if it was worth a try? Also as its slow release energy it will be good for him as he is prone to being a bit fizzy to say the least!
Thanks for any help

I have found that Allereze (Gold Label) or DeTox (NAF) are excellent for lung function. Allereze contains butterbur which is very supportive and DeTox is very high in vit C which is lacking in lungs affected by respiratory disorder.

You would probably get more benefit by adding one of these rather than linseed as that is more effective on the digestive system.
