Which is better for asthma/allergies: a humidifier or a dehumidifier? Also which type is an air filter?

Question

Help a confused friend out please! :)

Answer 1

I would say that a dehumidifier will help eliminate molds that could definitely be at the root of any wheezing....also,


Have you tried eliminating dairy from your diet? I suffered my

whole life with asthma until I stopped consuming dairy and

started taking small doses of natural ephedrine...this is the

one I use:

Also...explore this website:

The first step is BELIEVING that you can and will be

well...that you do not NEED meds for the rest of your

life...and that you WILL breathe normally again!!!

You'll see!!

I'm very healthy now and there was a time when I could barely

get up a flight of stairs without losing my breath....the

toxins in dairy are a direct link to breathing problems...also

a lack of sunlight and dependency on meds only makes matters

worse.

I wish you the BEST !!!!!!!

Humidifier For Asthma

Answer 5

My son is 15yrs old and he's always had asthma.

When the air is dry, it tends to make him sneeze so we use a cool air humidifier. It doesn't get warm or make the air feel humid.

It just keeps the air from being so dry in the cold winter.

Also, an air purifier is different. It takes sucks in the air from the room and runs it thru a filter, blowing it back into the room. We ended up getting rid of our carpet and laying down wood floors but if we hadn't, we were going to invest in purifiers. They work really well when you have a lot of things in your home that catch dust. Like carpet...

Depends on the room. If the room is too humid, tending toward mold, a dehumidifier. If the air is too dry, a humidifier. If the hair is very dusty/dirty, an air purifier. But to be honest, most people don't need any of these at all. All the best.

Answer 7

Neither really help allergies too much. I take a breathing treatment that is a whole lot like a humidifier for my asthma. But the best treatment is medication for breathing problems. A lot of people use the humidifier to loosen the air passages to the lungs so they can take their inhaler (this helps to make sure the medication actually makes it all the way to their lungs). I hope that helps i know that asthma can be a scary thing especially with children. Please whenever in doubt seek medical attention ASAP!!!

Answer 8

Neither of these are air filters. They simply put out medicine to help you feel better when you have a cold. They use Vic's (or generic brand vapor stuff). I have bad allergies and when they go into becoming a cold I tend to go for the humidifier with Vic's vapor steam stuff.

Actual air filters are expensive but I never much went for them because of the cleaning. They get dusty and that would make me sneeze when I took the coils out to do a water rinse and wiping. But that was years ago and the science of cleaning is improving. For air filter if ya were going to buy one I have heard that the Oreck XL professional is a good brand.

Answer 10

This depends on where you live or the weather. If you have had a lot of rain, then the dehumidifier works. If the weather is hot/cold and dry and it hasn't rained in a while and your skin is dry, then use an humidifier.
