Aeromedics is a consultancy offering expert guidance on optimizing intake of cool-fresh air to maximize our natural immunity to various diseases. Fresh air is free medicine provided people acquire skills for exploiting it to prevent or fend off various diseases. Prevention through health education as our strategy is better than cure! We follow a proverb that says "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime". Offering people skills for using fresh air as medicine will substantially reduce the burden of disease in our society since fresh air is free and most people who suffer from infectious diseases cannot always afford prescription drugs. Intake of cool fresh air offsets oxidative stress, which is associated with our excessive or persistently warm sedentary lifestyle. Oxidative stress has been implicated in the cause of over 70 chronic degenerative diseases that include; Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, different forms of cancer, atherosclerosis, heart failure, myocardial infarction, diabetes, ulcers, arthritis, Sickle Cell Disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, est. Fresh air contains oxygen that plays a vital biochemical role in boosting natural immunity of the people to various diseases and aerotherapy thus enables regular intake of ample oxygen for such purposes. I have published a self help handbook entitled: Medicinal use of fresh air & water with simplified guidance on exploiting medicinal value of fresh air indoors and outdoors on a daily basis. I had invented a new method for using fresh air as a therapy in 2002 in my successful bid to recover from a drug resistant typhoid fever. My new method complements the old traditional method for practicing aerotherapy that was employed in some parts of Europe. My new method for practicing aerotherapy has been highly effective in preventing malaria over the last ten years, and fending off flu, common colds, ulcers, typhoid fever through stimulating natural healing of the body. The efficacy of regular intake of cool fresh air in protecting a body against various diseases can not be questioned given recent scientific findings that link relative coolness of body temperatures with longevity. Our model involves not only selling our self help guides to the public but also lobbying policy makers to adopt this new knowledge and skills in all public health education curricula and programs given substantial scientific basis for my findings. We are targeting a global market with particular interest in developing countries where the burden of disease is greatest with minimal resources to combat diseases.

It is alarming to know that there is still a majority of people who do not know anything about oxidative stress yet it is a common place danger in our society. Oxidative stress is characterized by excessive availability of reactive oxygen species and free radicals in the body beyond a body’s ability to neutralize or detoxify thereby inflicting irreparable damage on body cells and tissues. Oxidative stress has been implicated in the cause of over 70 chronic degenerative diseases in our modern society and key among them are; Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, arthritis, ulcers, different types of cancer, atherosclerosis, heart failure, asthma, myocardial infarction, Sickle Cell Disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, est. These diseases jointly constitute the leading cause of illness and death globally. Alzheimer’s is a particularly dreadful disease that imposes a very heavy burden on caretakers for long periods of time as the victim becomes intellectually handicapped. It is like taking care of a dying soul in a living body. A biggest percentage of cancer deaths besides lung cancer are centered on organs in the abdominal activity where heat generation and conservation tends to be highest thus making those organs susceptible to oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is caused by a range of factors such as over exposure to sunshine, excessive exposure to heat or UV, exposure to pollutants, over eating, exposure to cigarette smoke, smoking and drinking. Our perennially warm urban based sedentary lifestyles deprive us of ample cool fresh air originally available in our traditional rural habitats leaving us prone to oxidative stress like never before. You can relate effects of sedentary lifestyle with of causes of oxidative stress mentioned above in elevating our body temperatures. Reduced exposure to natural fresh air has made us susceptible to oxidative stress and various diseases given the relaxing and cooling effects of fresh air and essential role that oxygen plays in boosting our natural immunity to various diseases. Regular intake of cool fresh air as a healthy habit clearly counteracts incidence of oxidative stress as supported by recent scientific research that established a link between longevity of living organisms and relative coolness of their body temperatures. Massive production of foodstuff, clothes and other warm utilities in the wake of industrial revolution has excessively insulated our bodies against cool fresh air with dire health outcomes. The situation is made worse in already warm tropical climates where people adopt attire and lifestyle tailored for cooler temperate climates without asking questions. It is alarming to find people wearing warm jackets, socks and closed shoes in warm and humid weather as work outfits yet this attire was originally designed for cooler temperate climates, which ends up harming the health of fashionable yet ignorant masses. Infectious diseases also still constitute one of the leading causes of illness and death globally. Malaria alone is estimated to cause 300 - 660 million incidents of illness worldwide, kills over 1 million people, and costs Africa about US$ 12 billion each year. Malaria illness is caused by a plasmodium parasite and spread from person to person through mosquito bites with flu like symptoms that include; headaches, fever, general body weakness, chills and nausea. It causes anemia and abortion among pregnant women, and loss of working hours among adults. Average cost of treating malaria each time is still very expensive at about $8, which is not affordable to everyone as an adult is likely to contract malaria at least once a year. Recent scientific research published by Colombian Scientists has established a link between malaria outbreaks and seasons of humid/thin air that carries less oxygen content. This linkage underscores a critical role that regular intake of ample fresh air with much oxygen content plays in boosting our natural defenses against malaria. A majority of people who need my solutions live in regions having a tropical climate that happens to be favorable for incubation of various disease causing organisms such as malaria parasites carried by mosquitoes. These regions include sub Saharan Africa, parts of Central and South America, and some Asian Countries. My solution is highly needed in these regions since malaria parasites keep developing resistance to drugs that are used to cure malaria thereby raising the need to offer people affordable natural remedies for preventing it. These regions are also affected by high rates of production and sales of counterfeit drugs that endanger human life. There is also a problem of chronic shortage of qualified medical personnel needed to render curative services to people. There is also a problem of frequent incidents of flu and common colds in our society that needs to be alleviated, and typhoid fever that recurs among some victims repeatedly in spite of receiving all the necessary conventional medication. Prevention or fending off these diseases with natural remedies is better than cure as there are still many people who cannot afford vaccines against colds, flu and typhoid fever. These problems compound the need to put prevention with safe and effective natural remedies before cure. My solution is also needed outside the tropical regions to combat different diseases particularly during summer in temperate climate since aerotherapy is known to enhance quality of sleep by preventing nightmares. My new method for indoors aerotherapy fosters optimal breathing that prevents nightmares and thereby enhances quality of sleep. Coolness of body temperature is well documented in science literature to enhance quality or depth of sleep and thus improve on the quality of human health. Recent scientific findings have proven that better quality and depth of sleep is associated with minimum risks of developing early Alzheimer’s disease as I have been suspecting for some time.

My newly published book and workshops offer expert guidance on making optimal choices of beddings each night necessary to maximize intake of fresh air required to prevent malaria and fend off other infections given above. My book is entitled: Medicinal use of fresh air & water available at Amazon.com. People can buy my book then study it carefully to be able to adopt methods and practices of utilizing fresh air as a therapy to fight off various diseases. They can also visit my website or blog to get clarifications where necessary and attend my workshops whenever it is convenient to do so. My book describes my new method of practicing aerotherapy given below alongside the old method of practicing aerotherapy once used in some parts of Europe. Fresh air is free medicine provided people adopt these two methods to exploit it. The old traditional method of practicing aerotherapy involves exposure of oneself to cool winds that blow from lakes, rivers, oceans and alpine resorts to enable the body heal itself or safe guard itself from diseases. It involves making use of light attire and open foot wear that permits easy circulation of moving air over the body so that one can easily inhale it as ones rests in the path of cool winds. The old method for practicing aerotherapy employed in Europe was limited to outdoor applications of fresh air as medicine whereas my new method enables maximal utility of fresh air as medicine indoors as well. This old method also emphasizes the need for people to dress according to a given type of weather to continuously balance our thermal needs with our needs for cool fresh air. My new method entails making optimal choice of beddings each night necessary to maximize intake of fresh air required to prevent malaria and fend off other diseases given above. My new method for practicing aerotherapy involves making optimal selection of night dressings and beddings according to the weather, condition of the body, time of the night and ventilation of the bedroom then ensure their optimal arrangement to sustain optimal intake of fresh air throughout the night as one sleeps. This method involves striking a balance between inhaling the maximum level of fresh air required by the body during sleep and conserving the minimum level of warmth needed by the body to remain relaxed and obtain top quality of sleep. It is the most convenient method for obtaining adequate intake of fresh air regularly provided one always sets aside adequate time for sleep or rest. The positive relationship between getting adequate sleep and having stronger immunity is already well documented in scientific literature. The scientific basis for aerotherapy lies in oxygen present in fresh air that avails our immune cells with ample energy from aerobic cell respiration. This energy drives protein synthesis to ensure quick proliferation of immune cells & molecules that rid off an infection before it becomes a disease. Getting ample oxygen also facilitates the breakdown of microbes by phagocytes in an immune process called phagocytosis before an infection progresses into a disease. Oxygen dependent phagocytosis has been found to be more effective in destroying microbes than oxygen independent phagocytosis. Recent scientific findings published by Colombian researchers led by German Poveda in a Malaria World Newsletter corroborate the core principle of my medical discoveries on medicinal effects of fresh air. The core principle of my discovery observes that high content of oxygen in the air and blood stream raises the level of natural immunity (protection) against malaria and other diseases whereas lower content of oxygen in the air and blood stream increases susceptibility of a given subject to clinical malaria and other diseases. Colombian researchers observed that outbreaks of malaria were associated with periods of increased temperature and humidity of air which are normally known to decrease oxygen content of air. There are at least three different ways in which aerotherapy scientifically contributes to the well being of a human body; aerotherapy stimulates relaxation of the breathing system, which subsequently induces efficient circulation of blood that flows from the veins in the lower limbs as helped by the regular contractions and expansions of the ribcage. This is essential in ensuring timely delivery of oxygen and nutrients to all body cells engaged in fighting diseases and body cells engaged in the repair and maintenance of worn out tissues, thus ensuring the general wellbeing of the body. The higher level of warmth or heat in the liver seems to have made it an ideal environment for incubation of malaria parasites. Offering the liver ample time and resources to effectively repair and maintain its tissues is therefore critical in enabling it to terminate incubation of malaria parasites. You may be aware that increased body temperature diverts blood to blood vessels in extremities of the body like the feet and body surface or skin. Relaxation and cooling of the body therefore draws blood back to internal organs thereby availing the liver and spleen with adequate resources to effectively maintain their tissues and eliminate foreign bodies like malaria parasites. The health of both internal organs is critical in boosting natural immunity of the body to malaria. Indoor aerotherapy improves on the quality and duration of sleep that in turn empowers our immune systems since growth hormones and proteins are normally produced during deep sleep. Accessing adequate fresh air during sleep is necessary for one to enjoy the best quality of sleep in a given night. The scientific basis for practicing aerotherapy to prevent infectious diseases also lies in the vital role that adequate oxygen found in fresh air plays in cell respiration to generate energy. Immune cells spend that energy on protein synthesis of immune molecules such as complement proteins, antibodies, enzymes and cytokines, as well as drive replication of immune cells. Catabolism generates energy for anabolism in the process of metabolism to enable construction of immune cells and molecules among other structures. Regular facilitation of the body with adequate fresh air therefore boosts massive proliferation of those immune molecules and immune cells fast enough to eliminate an infection before it becomes a disease. Adults living in malaria endemic regions enjoy partial immunity to the disease and adopting the practice of aerotherapy reinforces their complete immunity to malaria. This is possible since the incubation period of 1-2 weeks taken by malaria parasites in the body is long enough to allow aerotherapy to stimulate rapid multiplication of antibodies required to wipe out that parasite before one falls ill. Proteins generated from protein synthesis also play an important role as enzymes that catalyze all chemical reactions required to fight off germs. Aerotherapy stimulates protein synthesis to ensure repair of cells and tissues thus healing damages inflicted by free radicals in the body. Ready availability of oxygen in the body due to adherence to aerotherapy also boosts an oxygen dependent immune response called phagocytosis in which microbes and antigens are broken down by immune cells called phagocytes. There are white blood cells in the body called phagocytes that break down germs (parasites) in a process called phagocytosis. There is an explosion of respiratory activity that takes place in the process of phagocytosis called a respiratory burst, which increases demand for oxygen and glucose. Optimal intake of fresh air through adherence to aerotherapy allows the body to effectively carry out oxygen dependent phagocytosis, which is more efficient in killing pathogens (parasites) than oxygen independent phagocytosis. Readily available oxygen in the body due to aerotherapy appears drive phagocytosis to stem incubation of malaria parasites in the liver. My book also offers guidance on healthy choices of diet that minimizes incidents of oxidative stress by ensuring regular supplies of antioxidants in the daily diet and drinking adequate water regularly to facilitate cooling of the body. Adhering to the practices of aerotherapy and feeding on diets rich in antioxidants will enable our trainees; to keep oxidative stress at bay, improve on their quality of health and lives, and increase lifespan (longevity) of our trainees.

Our model of practicing aerotherapy puts prevention before cure by giving people ideas to safeguard their own health with free resources.People have been waiting till they fall ill before they start searching for a cure, which is costly in terms of irreversible abortions and lost time for productivity caused by malaria, and expensive medicines needed to cure it. Currently one just has to buy my book as a self help guide with simplified instructions on maximizing intake of fresh air as a therapy to naturally prevent malaria and other infections, read this book and follow instructions in it. If there is any question then the learner can log on to our blog or website to submit it for clarifications. People with underlying conditions or complications will be referred to seek additional guidance from qualified medical experts. I have started lobbying policy makers to adopt aerotherapy knowledge and skills in school curricula and public health education programs backed by my substantial scientific evidence and scientific references for practicing aerotherapy that i have adduced from my last 10 year research program. All adults leaving school should be be able to maximize utility of cool fresh air as a therapy to defend themselves against various dieases. I also plan to train trainers among some NGOs on aerotherapy practices so that they train other people in adult literacy classes and education programs besides selling my health handbooks to the public. I plan to present aerotherapy reports in scientific conferences and publish articles in science journals in order to attain global understanding and practice of aerotherapy. This model of preventive health care goes across borders.

Our competitors include companies that sell mosquito nets to prevent transmission of malaria and companies that supply drugs for cure of malaria, flu, colds, ulcers and various other diseases. My solution requires only one time purchase for one to adopt aerotherapy practices whereas one would have to buy mosquito nets and drugs from time to time which makes nets and drugs expensive in the long run yet aerotherapy combats more than one disease. Aerotherapy does not substitute the use of mosquito nets as the two solutions can complement each other. My solution empowers people to defend themselves against various diseases whereas drug companies would want people to be tied to the products so that they can earn profits indefinitely. My solution is affordable with quality thus better than drugs that are normally either expensive or affordable counterfeit drugs that endanger lives. These loopholes among my competitors have created the need for my safe and affordable natural therapy. My competitors are well established and command a lot of funding and media attention, which leaves me with limited avenue for funding, and limited room to sell my ideas.
