Hi,
hypnotoad made a Thread in the Health and Lifestyle section, I cant answer there, so i do it here
I have brochitis quite often too, and do not want to take antibiotics.
I take a tincture made of the Umckaloabo (Pelargonium-sidoides) Root (from Africa!) i can buy at my local pharmacy.
I take it for 10 years and i never have to take antibiotics (it helps realy good)
i hope this helps
