Ha ha ha, I am in the library and have just laughed out loud - I must look like a crazy lady!! The crochet site is at the right hand side of the screen. I am actually in the middle of crocheting the roses at this very moment - with my feet. (The only problem is , I don't know where to put the wool!)The fingers for computer keys and the toes for crochet!! The lungs may be sad but the feet are great!! Now, to get the kiwi fruit and oranges - the article was very good. enjoy the afternoon x

Quite right Julie, Vit C, D and E, all essential to help keep our good health.

Blueberries are full of nutrients you get the vit D by going out each day to pick them fresh from the bush. :)

What I meant to add - Vit C is good for helping the body to retain iron too. Very good for any one with anemia and for us females!

The article says Vit D3 is good for COPD, and then in another article it says that Vit D is not particulaly beneficial for COPD. I have a cupboard full of D3

Vit D3 is the only one that treats vitamin D deficiency, D3 in turn helps the body absorb other essential nutrients helping the body function better, thus helping lung and bone health.

I get my D3 tablets/capsules from 'LINDENS APOTHECARY' on eBay, or google for "Ossett Herbal Stores". I've no connection with the company, other than as a happy customer ;-)

There was a previous blog on here about Vitamin D:- blf.healthunlocked.com/blog...

They contains antioxidants and fibre but there are warnings against some foods, like beans and brocolli for COPD sufferers, as they produce gas which creates pressure against your diaphragm.
