I've got a call into the research facility to see if they can share any information on this.

Please do share any new information you find out about this. I see this video came out in 2014. I have interstitial lung disease secondary to a chemical accident. Maybe being on CPAP has helped in keeping it at bay. Was diagnosed maybe 15 years ago. Not sure if they are really on to something or not, but I'm interested in any perspectives on the subject.

I will update if I hear back from them. So far no response and I believe it is now after hours on the east coast.

Two days trying and no response. Either they are on vacation or they don't check their voice mail frequently...

Here is the information on Lederer...

I have been leaving messages on the contact number listed under the research tab.

Thank you for pointing that out. I don't know how I missed that.

I really thought that Columbia University Department of Medicine actually was a real place that employed Dr. David Lederer as the director of the Advanced Lung Disease Program.

Hold on now... just a minute.

A Google search says that the YouTube information is correct and gives

http://columbiamedicine.org/

As the information on Columbia Medicine. They actually list Dr. David Lederer and working in NIH funded projects involving pulmonary fibrosis and lung transplants.

Now I am confused...

Do you have information that indicates that the information presented on YouTube is incorrect?

Do you have any experience with anyone that suffers from pulmonary fibrosis?

I would love to hear your solutions so I can pass them on.

The video just may be an older one... is there a date anywhere to go by? Things do go out of date as medicine advances, and Dr. Lederer may be teaching anywhere in the world by now.
