Acupuncture helps chronic obstructive pulmonary disease plus weight.

The authors state: "We demonstrated clinically relevant improvements in DOE [dyspnea on exertion] (Borg scale), nutrition status (including BMI),  and health-related quality of life after three months of acupuncture treatment."  
Not only did the patients' lung health improve but their weight improved!!!
