Wonderful purchase
Dr Greenspan is amazing and he incorporates humor, passion, and expertise into his writing! This is a wonderful resource, and I am so glad I came upon it. At first I bought it on Kindle and then purchased the book itself because thereâs so much of it that I have wanted to highlight and reference frequently. I highly recommend this if you have any lung disease and want to learn all that you can!

If you have ANY type of lung disease, read this book!!!
I have pulmonary disease along with a multitude of other diseases. I am also a patient of Dr. Noah Greenspan at the Pulmonary Wellness Center in NYC. When I went for my initial assessment I was told not to worry, there was no pass or fail, the assessment was to assess strengths and weaknesses to determine the program which would be created specifically for me. Even with oxygen, I only lasted five minutes on the treadmill with 1.0 incline and less than 2.0 speed. Noah stopped the test, I just couldn’t go on. Noah took me downstairs and hailed a cab for me. All the way from Manhattan to Brooklyn I cried.That was almost 2 years ago. I can honestly tell you that this book is written in the language that anyone can understand. The techniques taught in this book are the techniques that are taught to us. At the PWC, we are all ages, body types and have just about every lung disease under the sun. Using the techniques that are in this book, we learn to breathe properly, strengthen our upper bodies, learn techniques to use when we panic because we can’t breathe and so much more. This book was written so that patients and caregivers can be proactive with improving their health. It’s inspirational, funny and truly is the finest book out there for us. Read, breathe and relax. As we say at the PWC , YES WE CAN!!!FYI: I can now walk almost 2 miles and this year walked over the Brooklyn Bridge with others from the PWC in a walk to promote lung disease awareness.

Incredibly helpful!
I first learned about Dr. Greenspan when I was searching Facebook for support groups for some health challenges we were investigating. So many of the groups seem so depressing and the members seem so defeated, but when I found the Ultimate Pulmonary Wellness page it was instantly different and how optimistic and informative everything was. Dr. Greenspan is very hands-on and gives so much of his time and information to help people with respiratory illnesses. I immediately felt welcomed and supported with an incredible amount of information. This book is a combination of that info and is invaluable to anyone who is dealing with respiratory illnesses. I like that it’s not just about illness or drugs, but about managing the things we do have control over like emotions and rest and exercise and treating the body holistically not just like a disease that you throw medicine at. It’s an easy read – informative but not written like a medical manual, and has a lot of humor in it too. I highly recommend this book.

The chapter on diet not only tells you the best foods to eat and what to avoid but also …
This book is a must for anyone suffering with COPD and anyone who cares for someone with COPD. It is a treasure chest of information about how to live with and improve your condition. The chapter on diet not only tells you the best foods to eat and what to avoid but also explains how the foods you eat affect your breathing. The chapter on medication alone is worth more than the cost of the book. It tells you in depth how and when to take the meds for the best results. I have seen a drastic change in my health since following Noah’s advice. The book explains the importance of exercise in improving your lung function followed by detailed examples of exercises that are most beneficial. I highly recommend Ultimate Pulmonary Wellness for everyone with COPD, caregivers, respiratory therapist, and Doctors.

excellent manual for treating lung conditions
As with everything from Noah Greenspan, this book is highly informative, based in sound medical science, with clear instructions on how to get the most out of the knowledge imported. As an IPF patient, this book is priceless to me.
