1. How A Change In Diet
May Alleviate Asthma

2. It is widely believed that there is no cure for Asthma however with the
escalating increase in the number of patients suffering from this
respiratory disorder, suffice it to say that it is becoming very important
that we find a lasting and truly beneficial solution to deal with the
problem.
The comforting news for whoever may be reading this is, coming from a
former Asthma patient, I can say with confidence that it is very likely
that a bulk of the solution may lie in changing your diet.
But it comes with a price, which may not really be that much to pay
considering the benefits to be gained.
That said, honestly the first thing you may have to do is give up all
processed foods and animal products such as meat, milk, eggs and the
like from your diet.
For validation of this fact, you can always do a search on the "Breath
Retaining Program For Asthmatics" developed by the Russian, Dr.
Buteyko on Google or any search engine and you will that this simple,
albeit important change in dietetic lifestyles is one of the main factors in
the program.
It is noteworthy of mention that within a few months of adhering to this
advice, many asthma patients have been said to become, quite simply
FORMER asthma patients, or at least patients who have the disorder
under better and more effective control than with using conventional
drugs.
The secret to this being so effective may lie in the fact that all of the
items such as animal products, most grains and ALL processed foods are
mucus forming, NOT fit for human consumption and could be
detrimental in the long run to the our health.

3. For Asthma in particular, such foods tend to all the more worsen an
already injurious situation in your respiratory tract.
So what are the alternatives that could be looked into?
Quite simply, you will want to consume food items that have an opposite
effect on the body. If the afore-mentioned items are mucus and disease
forming, then you should want to go for the foods that remove mucus
and disease. These are your raw (or properly cooked) fruits, root and
leafy vegetables.
Now, although this will definitely go a long way in the overall
improvement of health, arguably about 60-70% of the battle, for asthma
specifically, some other simple steps to curb the effect of Asthma in
your life are to:
1. Steer clear of drastic temperature changes in your home.
2. Try to keep a neat home, office or otherwise designated area as the
case may be.
3. Use a humidifier and a heater in the cold seasons.
4. Keep fresh air circulating as much as possible in the home.
5. Use a shower filter to remove the harmful chlorine fumes in the hot
water and use Fragrance-Free, Hypo-Allergenic Shampoos and Facial
Bar Soaps.
