Answer 1

Hi Bety

Here are some answers on asthma. Ideas to heal as well.

Causes of Asthma
Causes of asthma include, though are not limited to poor diet, food and environmental allergies, exposure to cold air, infection, overexertion and/or excessive exercise, exhaustion, and stress. Inhalants, which are commonly prescribed by conventional physicians to treat asthma symptoms, can also trigger asthma attacks, as can other pharmaceutical drugs, which can trigger allergic responses. Improper breathing habits are also a factor; often Asthmatics do shallow breathing, which leaves them more susceptible to an attack. Shallow breathing, coupled with the fear of not being able to breathe can often aggravate an attack.

1. Cleanses: Colon and liver cleanse will clear out the toxins in the blood and assists the body in healing. Learn about detoxifying the blood and you can change your health very quickly.

2. Diet:
If you suffer from asthma, you need to be screened for food allergies and sensitivities, and then avoid eating those foods you are allergic or sensitive to. In addition, avoid all sugar and sugar products, wheat and wheat byproducts, soft drinks, commercially processed foods, and all foods containing artificial ingredients, such as additives, colorings, flavorings, and preservatives. Minimize your intake of milk and dairy products, coffee and other caffeinated products. In addition, avoid eating foods that are high on the glycemic index, as such foods can trigger insulin resistance and cause hypoglycemia, which is a common factor in many cases of asthma.

3. Be sure to drink a gallon of pure water a day.

4. Emphasize an organic, whole foods, include plenty of fresh, raw organic fruits and vegetables, preferably soaked nuts and seeds, organic, free-range meats and poultry, and wild-caught fish. Garlic and onions, ginger and peppers are excellent staples to include in your meals, due to their powerful health benefits for the lungs and overall respiratory system. Also be sure to drink plenty of pure, fresh water each day, a minimum of eight ounces should be drunk every two hours. Extra virgin olive oil, virgin raw coconut butter/oil and high lignin flax seed oil are the oils of choice, and can used freely to replace all other fats and oils in the diet. Choose to cook with only virgin coconut butter/oil due to its ability to withstand high heats.

If your asthma attacks tend to be provoked by stress, combine half a teaspoon each of baking soda and sea salt in organic juice or pure, filtered water, and drink immediately.

5. Herbs: Useful herbs for helping to prevent and reverse asthma symptoms include cayenne pepper, ephedra (although the Food and Drug Administration tried to ban ephedra, it is now once again available due to a federal court ruling that overthrew the FDA ban), garlic, gingko biloba, green tea, gumweed, horse chestnut, Indian tobacco, jujube plum, licorice root, lobelia, marshmallow root, mullein, onion, passionflower, skunk cabbage, slippery elm, and thyme.

6. Homeopathy: Useful homeopathic remedies for asthma include Ammonium carbonicum, Aralia racemosa, Arsenicum album, Arsenicum iodatum, Cuprum metallicum, Ipecac, Kali nit, Lachesis, Lobelia, Natrum sulpuricum, Pulsatilla, Sambucus, Spongia tosta, and Sulphur.


Best of health to you

Answer 3

I have found that taking fish oil tablets regularly, in addition to my asthma meds, was very beneficial. Many asthmatics are allergic to wool, feathers,smoke, dust and mould so avoid these.
I had asthma as a child and young adult, and it continued up till about 5 years ago in a very mild form(I am now 56). I am very careful of my diet, eat lots of fruit and vegetables, fish, lean meats, and avoid processed foods on the whole. I drink plenty of water and get regular exercise, mainly walking.
I now take no medication at all and my asthma symptoms have vanished, so there is hope for you.

Answer 4

Asthma is a very serious, potentially life-threatening condition. The only real way to treat asthma (you will never "overcome" it) is to get help from a medical professional. Unfortuneatly, many people die each each year trying to "overcome" asthma, when they ought to be seeking professional help. While avoiding triggers to your symptoms is important, herbal and natural treatments may prove deadly if they delay a person from getting the help they need.

Answer 5

First, what are your triggers? A trigger is what sets off an asthma attack for you--it is different for everyone.

Second, can you eliminate all of those tiggers? if so, do it as soon as possible.

Third, get evaluated by a respiratory specialist who will test you to see your range, if you have allergies, how you can be monitored, etc.

Last, take meds when necessary, but strive to be med-free if possible. Do your own research into natural help, exercise and diet, etc.

Take care and happy better breathing!
