Natural Ways to Help With Asthma

Be careful of natural products as they may contain an ingredient which can trigger an allergy which inturn will trigger an asthma attack. Is it for you or your child? What meds are being taken presently specifically for asthma? Asthma is a serious disease and you should learn everything about it and consult your MD before starting any herbal product. I'm a resp therapist and asthma educator and the phrase "no one ever told me" is something I hear a lot. Contact the Americal Lung Association and they will be happy to send you various info which will help you to make a better decision.

The info I provide is strictly for educational purposes only and not meant as medical advise; always seek help from your MD and maintain the MD's tx plan.

Remember: The more you understand asthma, the easier it will be for you to relate to your MD and understand his tx plan. Good luck!

swimming is seen as a very good way to strengthen the lungs and may be of benefit to anyone with asthma.

Also, as pegleg has said [The more you understand asthma, the easier it will be for you... ]
Find out what the allergies are, I only found out in my early 20's what actually triggered off my attacks, it wasn't the dust of feathers I'm alergic to, it was something my body produces during exercise.
once i knew this It made things easier

hope this may be of some use

Hello I have not read any books on nature healing on Asthma. I stay away from those. I see a asthma/allergist specialist. I recommend reading books about childhood asthma. My son, also takes Pulmicort. I am also an asthma suffer. Good luck, Best wishes.
