I looked into it last year and very nearly bought one. I think it was about 3 grand. I had pneumonia and was in hospital for 3 weeks resulting in oxygen 24/7 . So it would have been wasted money. The video is very convincing

These devices crop up on here several times a month usually. I had a look on the web site once but got suspicious as son as I found out that you had to make contact with them before they would tell you the price. There is no medical backing for any of their claims so beware.

Why not check with B L F they might know about it.

Hmm, Have just returned from Sicily, where a Medical pal of mine whose specialises in Respiratory Diseases said in his best Italian = " COPD IS BECOMING A NICE LITTLE EARNER FOR SO CALLED "AIR PRODUCTS" , SO BEWARE , ALWAYS SEEK YOUR CONSULTANT'S ADVICE FIRST ON ANY NEW PRODUCT " - got a point folks !!!

If you need oxygen your Respiratory team will prescribe. Do not get sucked in by the advertisement claims.

I've heard of it about a thousand times, I'm with jojam.

juliekkay has one you could pm her if she doesn't respond here.

Anything that claims it will fix all makes me wary. I would say it would be better to go to a wood next to a stream as they say it does the same in the video. and probably lot cheaper. I did see Lidl were selling Nebulisers might be a better and cheaper option

The retailers of this machine say that when singlet oxygen returns to its ground (triplet) state, energy is released.

This is true.

They go on to say, "The energy that is released is taken up by the surrounding water. Consequently atmospheric oxygen is inhaled, enriched with energised water molecules".

This is also true -ish. However the energy so released (photons) simply raises the temperature of the water slightly rather than, as they wish you to assume, turbocharging it with some kind of health-bestowing vital essence.

It does not merely raise the temperature of the water! Otherwise all I would ever need to do is breathe in some steam and I'd be fine! I'm proof this machine works. So many people are asking questions about this machine to be met by answers rubbishing it from people with no working knowledge of it. I find that sad.

It's rubbish. Quackism. Do not touch with a barge pole.

I think that its terrible, if Dr steele is promoting this he also does another ad on Tv, and as he was a practising GP on over 100. grand a year.. pure bloody greed!

LivingProof in reply tojunespoon

I saw the machine on that program - I for one am extremely glad I did I have Asthma, my body won't let me take inhalers anymore - I am stuffed! But this machine is now my lungs and one year 4 months after I thought there was absolutely no hope - I am still here to tell you about it!

It works, please please don't slander people that are just trying to help people.

i was diagnosed with c.o.p.d 3 years ago.Two years ago, I spent thousands of pounds to buy a Airnergy and used 20 minutes every day.My condition did not get any better, progression of the disease is now more serious, had to give up work and have virtualy been a prisoner in my own home. Now think of it, the airnergy company's Web site says is a lie, there are many fake cases.Do not believe any of Airnergy publicity would delay the disease if use Airnergy . Who can help me to improve my condition ?

The Airnergy website is a classic cod /pseudo scientific website of the many that are amusingly taken apart most weeks at the back of the highly reputable New Scientist magazine. It is a scam trying to detach you from £2000.

Even in the first couple of paragraphs there are either unprovable statements or absolute scientific errors - for example salt dissolves in water at about the same rate whatever the water temperature, whereas the solubility of sugar rapidly increases. There are then some rubbish statements based on theoretical quantum physics about singlets.

Personally, I agree with Bilbo (above), prescribed oxygen has made a huge positive difference to my whole existence! Get yourself checked out with your Health Care Professional.

Call me cynical but I found this link from a discussion 7 months ago and if you read though we have the exact same conversations in parts?

Curiosity can be a great salesman!
