Dr. Ronald A. Fajardo: "Don’t ignore a persistent cough if you don’t know the hidden danger behind it. If you are suffering from tuberculosis, this method will help you eliminate the disease, restore your lungs, and regain your health in just 2 weeks."

DOH News: "Pulmonologists at St. Luke's Medical Center have found a way to completely cure tuberculosis and restore lung health."

This article was referenced by Dr. Ronald A. Fajardo, Interventional Pulmonology / Lung Mass Specialist at St. Luke’s Medical Center, Quezon City and Global City, and University of Santo Tomas Hospital.

Are you struggling with a persistent cough, night sweats, or unexplained weight loss? These could be warning signs of tuberculosis — a serious lung disease that can affect anyone, even non-smokers.

- Dangerous if not treated promptly

World Health Organization Warnings

The World Health Organization (WHO) has repeatedly warned that the Philippines is among the 8 countries with the highest tuberculosis (TB) burden in the world.

Every year, it is estimated that there are more than 600,000 new TB cases in the Philippines, with a significant proportion either undiagnosed or not receiving proper treatment.

The WHO emphasizes that multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) is on the rise, posing a major challenge to the healthcare system.

In particular, TB remains the leading cause of death from infectious diseases in the Philippines, surpassing even HIV/AIDS.

The WHO is calling for strengthened early detection, comprehensive treatment, and increased public awareness to reduce transmission.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the Philippines is currently one of the countries with the highest TB rates globally, with hundreds of thousands of new cases each year. If left undiagnosed and untreated, TB could become an even more serious public health threat.
"DOH News sat down with Dr. Ronald A. Fajardo of St. Luke’s Medical Center, whose latest study on Tuberculosis could change the way we treat this disease. Here’s what he had to say about the challenges, risks, and the promising solutions ahead."
Doctor, could you please share the most critical clinical signs of pulmonary tuberculosis that people often tend to overlook in its early stages?
One of the biggest challenges with pulmonary tuberculosis is that its early symptoms are often subtle and easily mistaken for common respiratory issues. Many patients ignore a persistent cough that lasts more than two to three weeks, thinking it is just due to smoking, pollution, or seasonal flu. Other important signs include unexplained weight loss, night sweats, low-grade fever, fatigue, and in some cases, mild chest discomfort.

Unfortunately, because these symptoms can appear gradually, people delay seeking proper care. By the time they act, the infection is often more advanced. That is why we always emphasize: any cough lasting more than three weeks, especially when accompanied by weight loss or night sweats, requires immediate and proper management. Early intervention saves lives.

In your opinion, what are the most prominent risk factors contributing to the high incidence of tuberculosis in the Philippines today?
In our country, tuberculosis remains widespread because of a combination of medical, social, and environmental factors. Poverty and overcrowded living conditions make it easier for TB bacteria to spread, especially in urban areas where ventilation is poor. Malnutrition and weakened immunity also play a major role, as many patients cannot maintain the physical resilience needed to fight the infection.

Another significant factor is delayed diagnosis and incomplete treatment, often due to limited access to healthcare facilities or the stigma surrounding TB. When patients stop treatment too early, the disease not only returns but also increases the risk of drug-resistant TB. All of these conditions combined contribute to the high incidence of tuberculosis in our country.

Doctor, considering these social and medical challenges, what strategies do you believe are most effective in ensuring patients complete their full course of TB treatment?
One of the most effective strategies to ensure patients complete their TB treatment is strengthening patient education and community support. Many people stop taking their medicines once they feel better, not realizing that incomplete treatment can cause the disease to return or even develop drug resistance. That is why we emphasize clear communication, counseling, and regular follow-up.

Equally important is providing social and emotional support. Some patients face stigma, financial difficulties, or long travel times to reach clinics, which discourages them from continuing. Community health workers, treatment partners, and family involvement play a vital role in keeping patients motivated and supported throughout the six months or more of therapy. When patients feel guided and cared for, they are more likely to complete the full course of treatment successfully.
Doctor, what specific methods do you recommend that can help prevent tuberculosis, strengthen lung immunity, support treatment, and enhance recovery for patients after TB?
When it comes to prevention, strengthening the lungs, and supporting recovery after tuberculosis, we believe that medical treatment must go hand in hand with supportive methods that patients can practice at home. Proper nutrition, rest, and stress reduction are fundamental, but we have also explored more innovative approaches.

In fact, we have identified a method originally developed in the United States that focuses on enhancing lung immunity and accelerating post-TB recovery. Our team has conducted in-depth research on this approach, and what makes it promising is that patients can apply it safely in their own homes. We have seen encouraging results, especially in terms of improved lung resilience and faster functional recovery.

This is why, as physicians, we are now very interested in natural supportive strategies, an essential complement to ensure patients heal more fully and reduce the risk of relapse.
Could you elaborate on the research direction that you and your colleagues at St. Luke’s Medical Center are pursuing, especially regarding natural supportive methods to enhance treatment effectiveness and improve lung function recovery in TB patients?
At St. Luke’s Medical Center, our research team has been deeply focused on identifying supportive methods that can work alongside standard TB treatment to improve patient outcomes. One of the most promising directions we have pursued is a natural supportive approach called LungBoost.

LungBoost is specifically designed for the lungs—it helps strengthen immunity, reduce post-infection inflammation, and support faster tissue repair. What makes it particularly valuable is that it can be safely applied at home, giving patients a practical way to continue their recovery outside the hospital.

But beyond the patients themselves, we also encourage family members to use LungBoost. Tuberculosis is highly infectious, and strengthening the lung defenses of those living in close contact with patients is essential to reduce their risk. In fact, even we as doctors—who face daily exposure to TB—have found it necessary to use LungBoost as a preventive and protective measure.

In our ongoing studies, both patients and their families who incorporated LungBoost into their daily routine, alongside standard medications, showed encouraging improvements in lung function, energy levels, and overall quality of life. We see it as a vital complement that enhances recovery, prevents relapse, and protects those most at risk of exposure.

Our vision is to make LungBoost and similar supportive strategies widely accessible, so that TB care is not only about curing the infection but also about protecting families, caregivers, and healthcare workers, ensuring long-term lung health for everyone involved.
Clinically formulated medical nutrition,
FDA-approved and exclusively distributed by DOH, to strengthen lung health

Thanks to scientific advancements, the World Health Organization (WHO) has emphasized the urgent need for innovative approaches to fight pulmonary tuberculosis. Building on this vision, researchers have developed LungBoost — a specialized nutritional product that combines rare herbal ingredients with advanced medical techniques, designed to strengthen the lungs, accelerate recovery, and enhance respiratory health.

Modern studies have confirmed the benefits of a traditional Eastern remedy that aids tuberculosis patients by enhancing lung function, strengthening natural defenses, and improving respiratory health.

  • Known as a “plant antibiotic” for the lungs, ivy leaves have the effect of dilating the bronchi, reducing cough, strongly expectorating and expanding the airways – helping to significantly improve shortness of breath in patients with pneumonia, tuberculosis, and early-stage lung cancer. This is an important foundation to help increase oxygenation and prevent respiratory failure.
  • 🌾 Stemona tuberosa extract
  • With its natural anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, Stemona tuberosa soothes the throat, reduces persistent dry coughs and inhibits bacteria that cause tuberculosis or deep lung infections. Supports the recovery of respiratory tissue damage caused by chemotherapy, prolonged inflammation, or TB-related scarring.
  • 🌸 Platycodon grandiflorus extract
  • Thinens phlegm, reduces inflammation, clears the airways, helps bring medicine and nutrients deep into the lung tissue. Especially useful for patients with tuberculosis or lung cancer who suffer from thick phlegm and persistent cough.
  • 🍊 Tangerine Peel Extract
  • Not only reduces cough, tangerine peel also has the effect of dissolving phlegm, regulating qi, supporting digestion and absorption — which is very important for tuberculosis patients who are often weak, undernourished, and have poor appetite. At the same time, it helps the body detoxify naturally and reduce the feeling of chest tightness.
  • 🌱 Ophiopogon japonicus Extract
  • Ophiopogon helps nourish lung tissue, increase natural moisture for the respiratory mucosa, reduce dryness and chronic cough. This is a valuable medicine in the treatment of chronic pneumonia, mild hemoptysis, tuberculosis-related lung damage, and to restore lung function after severe infections.
  • 🍃 Loquat Leaf Extract
  • Loquat has strong antioxidant properties, helps reduce pneumonia, soothes coughs and protects alveolar epithelial cells from the attack of toxins or cancer cells. In cases of tuberculosis, it supports lung cleansing, reduces airway obstruction, and protects against further bacterial damage.
  • 🌰 Fritillaria cirrhosa powder (Fritillaria)
  • One of the traditional Chinese medicinal herbs used for a long time in the treatment of lung diseases including tuberculosis and lung cancer. Fritillaria cirrhosa is expectorant, anti-inflammatory, clears the trachea and enhances respiratory function, and has been noted to have the potential to inhibit the growth of lung cancer cells and reduce TB-related inflammation in modern pharmacological studies.

The launch ceremony of the breakthrough that transforms the Face of Medicine:
LungBoost – Specialized Nutrition for the Lungs.
Presented by Teodoro “Ted” J. Herbosa – Secretary of Health.

There are 3 things you need to know before using LungBoost

1. Treatment regimen for each specific condition:

According to the recommendation of the Department of Health (DOH), individuals over 37 years old showing symptoms of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) — such as persistent cough lasting more than two weeks, coughing up phlegm or blood, shortness of breath, chest tightness when breathing deeply, fatigue, low-grade fever, loss of appetite, night sweats, and rapid weight loss — should follow a regimen of at least 3–5 cans of LungBoost, taken twice daily after meals.

For patients with chronic
TB lasting more than 4 months and accompanied by breathing difficulties, a regimen of 5–10 cans is recommended.

In addition, family members living with TB patients can also use LungBoost as a preventive support, helping to strengthen lung function, enhance immunity, and lower the risk of infection. This way, LungBoost not only accelerates recovery for patients but also creates a protective shield for their loved ones.

2. LungBoost is not sold in pharmacies:

LLungBoost has been developed to support lung recovery and boost immunity during TB treatment. After just 3–5 cans, the product helps reduce coughing, decrease inflammation, improve breathing, and lower the risk of serious complications such as drug-resistant TB, respiratory failure, or permanent lung damage.

Because of its high effectiveness, LungBoost is not sold in pharmacies. If patients restore lung function and reduce the need for additional medications, pharmacies would lose sales — which is why you cannot find LungBoost on their shelves.

3. LungBoost is produced in very limited quantities and must be pre-ordered:

One reason is that LungBoost contains high concentrations of Nano Curcumin, Lactoferrin, and essential vitamins A, B1, B9, B12, combined with rare herbal ingredients, and manufactured under strict European quality standards, making production capacity very limited.

More importantly, pre-order registration ensures protection against counterfeit products and prevents resellers from inflating prices, guaranteeing that TB patients receive the genuine product at the right value.

The requirements to purchase LUNGBOOST  are as follows:
  • Living in the Philippines - Only Filipino citizens can benefit from the discount program
  • For personal use only - This is to control speculators, some of whom try to buy LUNGBOOST in large quantities and resell it at inflated prices.
  • Register on the program's official website or fill out the form - Ordering on the official website is the manufacturer's price guarantee and protects you from speculators

Due to limited availability, St. Luke’s Medical Center, in collaboration with the Department of Health (DOH), is offering a special 3-day sale with up to 50% off, allowing all Filipinos to access LUNGBOOST – a comprehensive solution to strengthen lung health, boost immunity, and address respiratory issues.
To benefit from this program, we encourage you to register today using the hospital’s official application form.

With the goal of making high-quality products accessible to everyone, the Department of Health has decided to reduce the price of LungBoost. This initiative not only makes it easier for the public to afford but also brings significant health benefits to the community. In the face of severe environmental pollution and the high prevalence of tuberculosis (TB) in our country, LungBoost supports improved respiratory health, helps patients recover faster, enhances quality of life, and reduces the risk of TB complications as well as other lung-related illnesses.
