The latest report from the American Lung Association paints a concerning picture: Americans today are breathing more toxic air than they have in the past 25 years. The findings, released in May 2024, reveal the highest levels of toxic particle pollution recorded since the ALA began its annual “State of the Air” report. Shockingly, over 131 million Americans reside in areas where air pollution levels exceed healthy thresholds.
According to experts, despite significant strides in air pollution cleanup, the impacts of climate change, particularly from wildfires, are outpacing these efforts. Daily spikes in particle pollution are becoming more prevalent, posing serious health risks to millions across the country.
The report highlights that nearly 2 in 5 Americans live in areas failing at least one air pollution measure, with close to 44 million residing in regions failing all air quality standards. Sadly, those living in areas with the worst air quality are often burdened with higher rates of chronic health issues like asthma, diabetes, and heart disease, making them more susceptible to the harmful effects of air pollution.
The consequences of breathing in polluted air are grave. The report links both short-term and constant particle pollution to tens of thousands of deaths annually. Short-term exposure can trigger respiratory problems like asthma attacks, while long-term exposure increases the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Urgent action is needed to address air quality issues and protect the health of all Americans.
Other Factors Affecting Lung Health
What compounds the issue is that the toxic air we breathe is just one part of our “diet” that we take in. Combining the toxins from the air we breathe with the processed foods we eat, the forever chemicals in our cleaning supplies and the makeup we put on our skin makes the health risks exponentially worse. There are more hidden causes of lung issues that worsen the detrimental effects of the toxic air and they include:
- COVID-19 and Spike Protein: The spike protein associated with the virus affects the ACE2 receptor in the liver, which can impact various essential areas of the body including the lungs and cardiovascular system. When angiotensin 2 builds up in the liver due to the spike protein, it leads to several issues:
- Increased vasoconstriction
- Increased fibrosis
- Increased Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH)
- Increased Aldosterone
- Increased water and sodium retention
- Increased oxidative stress
- Increased inflammation in the lungs and body
- Increased exaggerated histamine response
- Increased formation of fibroids
- Increased insulin dysregulation
- Increased hormone imbalance
All of these issues may put more strain on the lungs and detoxification pathways, heightening the detrimental effects of toxic air quality.
- Leaky Gut: Leaky gut causes systemic inflammation, including in the lungs, and can result in new food allergies that contribute to lung allergies and asthma. Diet plays a crucial role in affecting lung health and immune function.
- Increased Exposure to Toxins: With higher exposure to heavy metals, radiation, GMOs, glyphosate, and other toxins, our detox pathways, especially in the liver, can become overloaded, leading to systemic inflammation and oxidative stress that also affects lung tissues.
- Increased Allergens: Gut and autoimmune issues, coupled with increased toxin exposure, are causing a rise in allergies. Elevated histamine levels contribute to inflammation throughout the body, including the lungs. Common allergens include casein, shellfish, peanuts, soy, eggs, corn, and gluten, as well as dandelion, sunflower seeds, melons, and zucchini.
- Moldy Food: Foods containing mold can trigger lung inflammation. Examples include grapes, mushrooms, lentils, honey, corn, peanuts, berries, peas, grains, and beans.
- Histamine Intolerance: Histamine, a naturally occurring compound involved in immune response and inflammation, plays a critical role in allergic reactions and can affect lung function:
- Immune Response: Released by immune cells in response to injury, infection, or allergens, histamine triggers inflammation to protect the body.
- Allergic Reactions: In individuals with allergies, histamine release in response to harmless substances leads to allergy symptoms like sneezing, itching, and skin reactions.
- Inflammatory Response: Histamine causes blood vessels to dilate and become permeable, contributing to redness, swelling, and warmth during inflammation.
This information highlights how various factors, from COVID-related spike proteins to dietary choices and toxin exposure, can impact lung health and inflammation, which exacerbates the negative effects of the toxic air we breathe. Understanding these connections can help in managing and preventing respiratory issues.
How To Detox From Air Toxicity
Due to the increased burden on the body’s lung function and detox pathways, it is essential to be proactive in detoxing from the toxins in the air. The top two supplements to help this are Accelerated Colloidal Silver™ and Acceleradine® iodine.
Accelerated Colloidal Silver™
Silver has been known for thousands of years to not only help devitalize the foreign pathogens that can inhibit lung function but also help reduce inflammation in the lungs.
Nebulizing silver into the lungs targets the lungs directly and effectively.
Accelerated Colloidal Silver™ is the only nano-particle silver enhanced with Scalar frequencies and treated with water implosion technology to improve its efficacy beyond any other silver supplement.
Scalar Field Enhancement Technology (SFET) that we use creates a silver that far surpasses any other:
- Coherent Water Structure: SFET can reorder the molecular structure of water, making it more organized and potentially beneficial.
- Boosted Immune Function: SFET can boost immune function in mammals, which is great for overall health.
- Natural Formation Process: SFET mirrors the natural formation processes we see in nature, bringing that same harmony into technology.
- Restorative Effects: SFET isn’t just about physical health; it can also have restorative effects on mental and emotional well-being, which is so important.
- Pathogen Devitalization: SFET can neutralize pathogens, which could have profound implications for health and environmental care.
When water is perfectly imploded, it transforms into perfectly structured water infused with a powerful scalar field, enhancing its “life force” and turning it from “dead” water to “living” water.
As the water structure improves, it becomes less adhesive and forms smaller micro-clusters. This reduction in surface tension allows colloidal minerals like silver to penetrate the body more rapidly and deeply.
Acceleradine® Iodine
Iodine is known to devitalize all foreign pathogens that could inhibit lung function including viruses, bacteria, candida, parasites, and fungus. It is also anti-inflammatory, helping reduce the inflammation in the lungs that could be causing suboptimal breathing. Nebulizing iodine diluted in water helps target lung health specifically and effectively.
Iodine also helps optimize thyroid function and metabolism, both of which affect lung function. Lastly, iodine helps reverse the damage done to the DNA by the mRNA and Spike Protein, which has been connected to suboptimal lung function.
Acceleradine® iodine is unlike any other iodine supplement for the following reasons:
Acceleradine® Iodine is a unique and natural form of iodine, consisting of pure singlet active iodine (I-) suspended in alcohol and infused with scalar frequencies. Most iodine supplements are “diatomic”, meaning two atoms connected; in that case, the body has to break the two apart to use the iodine. This is usually very inefficient and results in 10 to 20 percent absorption. Acceleradine® iodine boasts 100 percent bioavailability and absorbability because it exists as a single iodine atom, unattached to other atoms. This means that even individuals with weaker bodies can efficiently absorb this iodine into every cell of their body.
Additional Supplements to Optimally Detox Air Toxins
The air we breathe contains about 19 percent dioxygen (O2). Copper has the unique ability to counteract the oxidizing effects of dioxygen. Additionally, copper may help alleviate the side effects of free radicals, which can contribute to less-than-optimal lung function.
Accelerated Scalar Copper™ is a groundbreaking liquid copper supplement designed specifically for direct nebulization into the lungs. It boasts an impressive 99% bioavailability and is enriched with healing scalar frequencies. Furthermore, it undergoes an innovative “energizing” process using water implosion technology, enhancing its effectiveness far beyond that of any other copper supplement on the market.

Lifestyle Changes to Enhance Detoxification
Cut Out Sulfur Vegetables
It’s been shown that sulfur-containing foods can exacerbate the histamine response. These foods, such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, kale, onions, garlic, and egg yolks, should be avoided if you are having symptoms. Additionally, some medications and supplements might also contain hidden sources of sulfur.
Avoid Amyloid Proteins
Amyloid proteins found in chicken, pork, turkey, and conventionally raised beef can contribute to histamine intolerance and promote the growth of the Spike Protein in the body. This can worsen inflammation, lung function, detoxification, gut issues, pathogenic load, and insulin dysregulation.
Limit Oxalate Foods
Foods high in oxalates, like spinach, almonds, berries, kale, and nuts, can burden the system and increase the histamine response. It’s beneficial to reduce the consumption of these foods.
Avoid High-Histamine Foods
By cutting out high-histamine foods, such as bananas, avocados, bone broth, leftover meats, and sauerkraut, you can lessen the histamine load on your body. This supports digestive system healing, improves lung function, helps regulate insulin, and reduces symptoms of histamine intolerance.
Exercise
Exercise increases circulation, sweating, and detoxification of all toxins, including those from toxic air quality.
