Nebulizer Protocol for Respiratory Illnesses (kid proof)
I wrote this blog post in response to a few videos I posted that went “viral” and people were looking to obtain more information, so I hope this is helpful.
Let me first begin by saying, this is not medical advice, I am not a doctor, nor do I pretend to be one, but I am passionate about health, and have devoted a good part of my life to researching, obtaining certifications, and constantly experimenting on myself. I also have a family and two young boys who are open to alternative health methods and we get to see what works and what doesn’t.
As everyone knows, the recent pandemic brought light to respiratory illnesses and many people were bedridden for days and could not breath. For many alternative health seekers, you probably heard of using Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide to with a nebulizer. I know several of my clients and others that got great results from this. Their fever stopped and they were finally able to breath again.
The hydrogen peroxide protocol is simple:
Put 0.1 cc of 3% food-grade (NOT 35%) hydrogen peroxide into 10 cc (2 tsp) of normal saline (Becomes 0.03%). Pour this resultant liquid into the chamber of the nebulizer.
Do this every hour on the hour for 10-12 minutes (you can go longer if you want) the first day, if needed. Afterwards, you can titrate back to 4-6 times a day the following days until symptoms subside.
Composed of two atoms of oxygen and two of hydrogen (H2O2), hydrogen peroxide is involved in all of the essential processes of life and must be present for the immune system to function properly. The latter's first line of defense against viruses, bacteria, parasites, and yeast is hydrogen peroxide produced by granulocytes, white blood cells that fight infection.
I think this is an excellent protocol overall, however, I also like to nebulizer a few other things.
My Top Supplements & Go-To Nebulizer Tinctures
GlutoStat by Mitozen - Use code “JOELEVAN” for small discount
CellCore’s Hydroxygen & Para 3 (Email info@joelevancoaching.com to gain access & for more details)
Mitozen/Glutostat
One of my go-to products is brought to you by Dr. John Lieurance, a naturopathic diet who has successfully treated himself for Chronic Lyme disease & CIRS. He uses some of the most cutting-edge treatments to treat others with many chronic conditions. He has an amazing company called Mitozen where you can buy some of my favorite products, such as Glutostat (immunity), Zen Mist (for meditation/relaxation), a nebulizer, and high-grade melatonin (use the code “JOELEVAN” for a small discount).
I like using Glutostat as a formulation to nebulizer because it has the following ingredients:
Sustained-release Glutathione for optimal blood levels.
Glutathione is your master antioxidant. Think of glutathione as one of your body’s natural detox agents. This powerful antioxidant becomes a cofactor for dozens of detox enzymes that neutralize damaging free radicals.[5] The largest stash of glutathione is found in your liver, which uses glutathione to remove heavy metals, free radicals and other toxins.[6]
Anti-Microbial Herbal Extracts Wild Crafted Oregano, Sage, Bay Leaves and Clove, Copaiba
Oregano and Clove are some of my favorite anti-viral herbal extracts and they are in this formula. In addition to fighting off bacteria, some test-tube studies have found that oregano and its components may also protect against some viruses. Oregano has been associated with antiviral properties. In one test-tube study, carvacrol inactivated norovirus, a viral infection that causes diarrhea, nausea and stomach pain, within one hour of treatment (12Trusted Source). Another test-tube study found that thymol and carvacrol inactivated 90% of the herpes simplex virus within just one hour (13Trusted Source). Clove essential oil, often used in aromatherapy to treat inflammatory diseases, including arthritis and rheumatism [54], was found to have anti-inflammatory effects in animal models at doses of 0.05 and 0.20 mL/kg [83]. Owing to their lipophilic nature, essential oils are advocated to penetrate viral membranes easily leading to membrane disruption. Moreover, essential oils contain multiple active phytochemicals that can act synergistically on multiple stages of viral replication and also induce positive effects on host respiratory system including bronchodilation and mucus lysis.
Antifungal, Antibacterial Terpenes: Linalool, Limonene, Eucalyptol, Geraniol,
Silver Hydrosol (Ag (n)+1): I’ve used colloidal silver for my boys in many treatments such as pink eye and smaller coughs and it’s done very well. The beneficial effects of silver in reducing or preventing infection have been seen in the topical treatment of burns and chronic wounds and in its use as a coating for many medical devices (NCBI article)
N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is a precursor to glutathione productions and an awesome free radical fighter.
CellCore
As a health coach surrounded by numerous naturopaths, one of my top brands is CellCore. They use fulvic and humic minerals in the composition of their products and are extremely high-grade. One of the products they make that I love to nebulizer is called Hydroxygen. HydrOxygen supports cellular oxygen status. That promotes tissue health and well-being from head to toe. The molecular oxygen in this product is stabilized using a proprietary process. That enables it to be delivered to organs, tissues, and cells without dissipating. By supporting oxygen status, HydrOxygen may have multiple benefits. It could aid microbiome health, assist normal cognitive function, support lung health, promote efficient ATP (energy) production, and facilitate normal sensitivity levels. As the “multi-tool” of supplements, HydrOxygen can be used orally or topically. Plus, it can be used in a nebulizer (with distilled water), nasal rinse, nasal spray, or coffee enema.
What I find fascinating is that disease cannot live in an oxygenated state. When they look at cancer, for instance, cancer is anaerobic and is able to grow and thrive without oxygen. But as long ago as 1931 the German doctor and scientist Otto Warburg won a Nobel Prize for his work on the fundamental importance of oxygen transfer in cell respiration; in 1944 he won a second for his discovery of the hydrogen-transferring enzyme. In his 1966 book, The Prime Cause and Prevention of Cancer (Wurzburg: K Tritsch), Warburg, a director of The Max Planck Institute for Cell Physiology, stated:
'Cancer, above all other diseases, has countless secondary causes, but there is only one prime cause... the replacement of the normal oxygen respiration of body cells by an anaerobic [oxygen lacking] cell respiration.'
What he showed was that the growth of cancer cells is initiated by a relative lack of oxygen at the cellular level. When cells cannot get sufficient oxygen they start to feed off themselves in a sugar fermentation process that gets progressively disruptive, leading to a toxic environment in which cancer and other illnesses, triggered by viruses and parasites, can thrive. Cancer cells cannot easily exist in a high oxygen environment.
The next tincture I really love for anti-viral and anti-microbial issues that could also be nebulized is Para 3. It’s designed to absorb deep into the tissues, Para 3 is a synergistic blend of herbs to provide powerful immune support. Para 3 consists of seven herbs in a tincture made with certified organic cane alcohol that extracts beneficial compounds from the herbs, increasing their concentration and potency. The herbs in Para 3 include sage leaf, tansy, thyme leaf, epazote, black walnut hull, holy basil leaf, and clove bud. Holy basil functions as a driver for the systemic distribution of the herbs in the body. Thyme and holy basil are extremely good for the lungs.

Where To Get A Nebulizer?
I like WholeSale Point, which has several to choose from. They are cheap $30-$40. The one that I was using in the video was a Phillips Innospire.
