Medical Expertise of the inhaler set called the Saltpipe
The inspection of the instrument requested by: B.B. System Kereskedelmi és Szolgáltató Kft.
(B.B. System Ltd. For Commerce and Services )
1146 Budapest, Francia út 57/c. (repr.: Békefi Imre)
The date of arrival of the instrument to our institute: 01. 09. 2002.
Description of the instrument: A ceramic container, filled with a mixture of special salt crystals and minerals


Application of the instrument:
Setting it in the way of the inhaled air it helps the easier penetrability of the upper respiratory tructs with a special inhaling opportunity

The basics of the functioning of the instrument:
Inhalation is a special method for the local treatment of respiratory illnesses. The advantages of the inhalational method are:
- Local effect
- Higher salt concentration in the upper tructs
- Fast results
- The systematic effect is lower than in case of medication implied orally or injected
- The instrument employs only fully natural resources

The obtainable physiological effects are:
- Mucolysis
- Secretolysis
- Eventually: bronchospasmolysis
- In case of special material (minerals) antiphlogisticus effect

Indications of the application:
For the cronic illnesses of respiratory tructs (asthma, bronchiale), and for different forms of allergic rhinitis

In case of long term application of the set the vital capacity intensifies and subjectively, it provides an improved general state of health

In our institute we tested the instrument on the following group of illnesses:
- cronic upper respiratory catarrhs
- cronic respiratory illnesses (asthma, bronchiale) in acute and severe phase

Our Experiences:
For the proper way of application the user must be trained and the process must be controlled, monitored later on.
With the remission of the patien’s condition an individual dose must be defined with other expression: the duration of application must be determined.
The hypocamnia, caused by the forced – too hard – inhalation must be avoided so the aquirement of the proper technique is essential.
In order to avoid contamination, and in order to keep the instrument clean, only one patient should use one set.
During the application of the instrument we did not change the dosage of the patients.
The voluntarily involved patients we randomly divided into the “treatment” and the “control” groups. The “treatment” patients used the instument several times a day for a determined period of time. Weekly and after two months we examined the patients – with attention to iron-, and vitalcapacity.

Observations:
The application of the Saltpipe is effective even in case of cronic upper respiratory illnesses, but in these cases there was a need for medicinary supplementation also.
In case of the cronic illnesses, the patients reported about a subjectively easier breathing and inspirational experiences, which was officially confirmed by objective vitalcapacity measurements.
Based on the above mentioned statements, the outcome of the adjuvant application of the instrument has proven to be EFFECTIVE in many of the cases.During the test period no side effects have been observed.

Accordingly:
I suggest the application of the “Saltpipe” instrument as a complementive, supportive method with the following completion:
It must be distributed with a suitably informative and ethic description for users, which does not deceive the user and does not make him or her abandon the previously used traditional medicaments and treatment.

Dr. Hegyi Gabriella MD.PhD.
Division leader specialist

Matild Kovács: Good morning! Greetings to everyone!

Show Host: Are you already using this Saltpipe in the Hospital? Do you offer this to your patients?

Matild Kovács: We use the Saltpipe during the abulant medical attendance of our patients. We offer it to them with quite good results, since it is like a mobile salt cavern therapy. The salt crystal-filled instrument helps to dissolve the sediments (crusts) and secretions that stucks onto the respiratory tructs and also helps in the depletion.

Show Host: Is it fully able to substitute cavern therapy?

Matild Kovács: No, not completely, only that part of the cave, or cavern therapy where salt crystals are adopted (utilized). Since the micro climate of the caves is inevitable concerning cave therapy, which – obviously – cannot be created at home, under domestic circumstances.

Show Host: What kind of minerals does this pipe contain?

Matild Kovács: Saltpipe contains mainly calcium-salts, besides, on the level of micro elements we can also find the natrium, the chlorine and the potassium. In small quantity also the bromine and the iodine.

Show Host: Is this an expensive instrument?

Matild Kovács: Considering its long term usability, further more, the positive effects, the current commercial price is acceptable.

Show Host: How often do we need to change/replace it?

Matild Kovács: The inventors filled it with a quantity which is sufficient for 5 years.

Show Host: Who are the ones who can use it, and for who wouldn’t you suggest it?

Matild Kovács: As a matter of fact, it can be used by everyone. Even small children, starting at the age when they can be trained what is the proper way of breathing through this salt crystal-filled pipe. We can suggest it to people suffering from cronic respiratory diseases, allergies and also for smokers – with very good results.
Practically for everyone who suffers from irritated respiratory alteration.

Show Host: On what levels of sickness can we use it?

Matild Kovács: In the preventive period, in case of cronical diseases, to prevent the acute stage or avoid protraction. Of course it is not a substitute for a medicine. It is not a medicament, but it plays an important role in the preventive therapy.

Show Host: How often is the use of the pipe needed?

Matild Kovács: In order to reach the beneficial results, it is necessary to use it daily.

Show Host: Is the pipe known abroad?

Matild Kovács: Well, many foreign countries show interest towards the Saltpipe, since the incidence rate of the the allergic upper-, and lower respiratory illnesses is getting higher and higher. Because of this, every product that offers results on the field of restoring good condition, and at the same time improves the comfort-feeling without any side effects, clearly creates interest everywhere.

Show Host: Well, thank you for coming, and allow me one more question: those people whose interest aroused towards the Saltpipe are probably interested: can they already purchase this product?

Matild Kovács: Yes, of course, it is already on the market.

Thank you for the interview!

Opinion about the Saltpipe:
I find the therapy – carried out by the Saltpipe – the most natural, physiological and the most effective of all. Very important – the simple fact – it is, that the air, inhaled through the saltpipe, creates much better conditions for the respiratory tructs and for the lung than the in-room or the outside air.

We can observe that the mood and comfort feeling of the people who use the saltpipe improved in a short term; their optimism and belief in their recovery appears. These positive feelings – in case of both the adults and children – report about the activisation of those limbical-reticular centers inside the body, which are responsible for the intesifying of our adaptational skills.

This positive background is a very important factor of the Saltpipe’s healing effect. The wonderful therapic effects of salt caverns are well known to everybody. Intensifying these effects the two smartly designed appliances: the Saltpipe and the Salty-phant (developped especially for children) donate us directly.

Groups of patients:
6 Asthma bronchiale
2 Sinusitis maxillaris
2 Laryngitis subglottica
Boys: 7
Girls: 3

Age:
The youngest child: 3 years old
The eldest: 16 years old
Average: 9 years

Duration:
Average: 6 weeks
The longest: 2 months period
The shortest: 4 weeks period

Experiences:
The product is catching the attention of both the children and the parents with its nice looks, especially with the latest elephant design, which does not give the impresson of a medicament.
The description should be attached in the form of a little brochure, the method of application should be described in a more detailed, pointed, highlighted way /introduction, “what to do-s”, and the importance of the daily, regular usage/.

Because of the relatively short testing period, we could draw only a few conclusions.

We received indisputably positive feedbacks from both of the patients suffering from recitive sinusitis. As a result of the application of the set, in the first 2-3 weeks the nasal discharge intensified, later the intensity of the mornig and evening coughings decreased.

In case of one of our two patients suffering from the illness of pseudo-croup, we did not experience any significant changes, the “barking-like” coughing did not emerge less frequently, its progress was similar to the previous way. There wasn’t much of a chance for the good outcome anyway, because of the conditions created by the possibility of virus infection. In the other case, the patient did not have coughing seizures in the testing period, but it might be a coincidence, because of the short period (again) we cannot give a “clear-cut”, certain explanation.

In case of our asthmatic patients (who were represented in a greater number) we would have also needed longer time for drawing more reliable conclusions. Since at wintertime the chance of infection is greater and the existance of allergens is not significant, these circumstances also influenced the effects of the instument.

In two cases, the parents experienced that the relief from the asthmatic seizures come sooner and the torturing coughing ended faster.

In two cases the frequency of seizures decreased and it the last two cases we did not observe any significant changes.

This product became so popular that it already has a nickname: Salty-phant. It is a great idea of the inventors: needs only a small storage place, easily cleanable and very effective. I’ve heard about it for the first time on a late radio show and right then I had the opportunity for a trial. I immediately experienced its beneficial effects. Breathing became so easy, I felt that more, & cleaner air reached my lung, despite the fact that I am completely healthy. I was wondering if it aroused such a good feeling in my case how beneficial it could be for those prople who are suffering from respiratory illnesses. Since then many people can enjoy this simple way of help which can be always held at hand. Its popularity is well proven by the fact, that its price significantly decreased in a relatively short period. This factor brings it closer and gives the opportunity for more and more people to experience it. Also happily heard that a nice elephant-shaped instrument was developped especially for the use of children. This way the small ones also use it gladly. I wish Saltpipe to become a remedy in several people’s life!

Notices about the experiences in connection with the Saltpipe used in the case of 10 patients:
10 patients were using the Saltpipe in the period starting in October 2002, finishing in February 2003, for 2-3 months of duration.
These patients were suffering from respiratory illnesses; 3 of them suffered from cronic bronchitis, 7 of them from asthma bronchiales: 2 of this 7 people had severe bronchitis.
4 patients out of the 10 were females and 6 of them were males.
2 patient between the age of 50 & 55, 3 between the age 55 & 60, 2 of them were between 60 & 65, and only one of the patients was above 70.
Out of these 10 patients 6 suffers from heart diseases, which aggrevated the applicability of antispasmiodic sprays – for the bronchial tubes – because of the side effects which exert the functioning of the heart.

I was trying to choose patients whose illness was severe (cronic bronchitis, and/or ashtma bronchiale).

The experiences of the patients show that the Saltpipe helps to dissolve sediments, helps in the process of discharge and doing so, easens their breathing.

As a doctor, I found the Saltpipe a very effective complementary tool in the therapy of patients with respiratory illnesses.

We can almost equalize the effects of the mineral-filled air inhaled through the Saltpipe with the effects of the salt caverns (apart from the fact that the temperature of air inhaled through the Saltpipe is identical with body temperature), further more, it is more moderate from a financial point of view than the expenses of salt cavern therapies. As a summery I would like to conclude the followings:

The secretion-discharge is easier and so, the breathing of the patient becomes more relieved. I also observed that the speed of the air-stream in the small bronchial tubes accelerated which results in an easier breathing.

I find the application fo the Saltpipe indisputably beneficial.
I owe you my gratitude – also in the name of my patients – for the Saltpipe.

I was one of the first lucky ones “meeting” this very smart “tiny mobile salt cavern”.
Both the idea & the way of construction is first class-world standard.
Both my own and my patients’ experiences – allergic, asthmatic, emphysematous, and patients suffering from bronchitis or other respiratory illnesses – proved its absolute effectiveness: I strongly suggest the application of the Satlpipe on a regular daily basis in every case – without exceptions – where we want to solve successfully and permanently the general immunological, acid-base balance harmonising, the basic oxigen supplying tasks – concerning the process of metabolism – without any side effects.
