Listen my son Anthony and I had a big scare a few weeks ago I forgot to share with you all. He and my youngest, Cynthia, both suffered from Asthma more so when up until 5 or six year ago. Here in New York we had the worst pollen count ever, people who didn't suffer from allergies were complaining. He and I were walking back from our eye doctor's office, about 4 blocks from our home, he began coughing a could not keep up his usual pace he began wheezing. I had gotten half way down the fist block before I realized he was not keeping pace with me. He had crouched down to the ground in order to get any breath, he was in the midst of an Asthma attack.

I don't have to tell you my heart started racing because we were on the street with no one around and I though I was going to have to start screaming for help to get him to an emergency room. No albuterol in our home it's been over 6 years. The last time with in the six I took both to the emergency room, waited 3 hours saw the doctor for 10 mins. and got a bill for $500.00 each.

Well we made it home once I was able to calm myself down and think. I have the family taking OPC-3 which is a great antioxidant I knew but I really found out that day how great. Once we got home, I had him wash is face, strip off those pollen laiden clothes and take two capful of this OPC3. With in min. his wheezing stopped, the coughing stopped his breathing became normal.

Turns out he was taking it but had been skipping a few mornings, we double dosed for the remainder of the week. And never heard anything adverse again.
