“I’d been coughing for six months from exposures to other wildfires — the Park Fire, the Mountain Fire, the Franklin Fire, and then the Eaton Fire. Like, nonstop coughing, to the point where I thought I had pneumonia. I went and did the glutathione treatment and the cough went away. Pretty incredible.”

— Sean Banks, Pasadena Fire engineer

“A lot’s coming up right now from down deep in the lungs. It’s definitely feeling better. I haven’t slept that well in a long time.”

— Chris Ramstead, Pasadena Fire Captain

“I was on the Eaton Fire incident for the first three days. Haven’t been able to get rid of the cough. I was very fortunate to come here yesterday I did a breathing treatment, did an IV. I kid you not, I probably got the best sleep I’ve gotten in a very long time and woke up this morning to a cough that was able to expunge a ton of junk that I’ve been trying to get rid of with over the counter meds for the last five, six, seven days that I haven’t been able to. This is after one day. So needless to say, I’m a huge believer in it.”

— Erik Hernandez, Pasadena firefighter

“This is something we need in our department all the time.”

— Jeff Brown, LAFD Captain, Pacific Palisades station 69

“I’ve been on several strike teams throughout the year, most recently the Eaton Fire. We were deployed for about 12 days. I knew I was being exposed to quite a bit early on – a lot of smoke inhalation. As the weeks went on, I started to feel a little worn out and a had some respiratory issues. Two years ago, I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. I had my thyroid removed and 44 lymph nodes. Now I try to be more in tune with my body so I’m very grateful for the opportunity to be involved with the detox. After I did it, I felt like my lungs were opened up, I felt a lot of benefit from it.”

— Steven Seaborne, Long Beach Fire Captain

“The breathing treatment I had today has really helped out. I’ve seen a lot of firefighters affected by cancer. There’s many of them that I’ve known that have passed away, and I’ve seen the suffering that they go through. A program like yours will be such a great benefit and prevent a lot of suffering, needless suffering for people in my occupation.”

— Eric Nakamaru, LAFD Captain, Pacific Palisades station 69
