Top 5 Steps to Beating Asthma: Natural Treatment

Suffering from asthma every day is like having an extra job trying to control symptoms. It only takes a day when the air pollution is higher than normal, causing you to breathe so hard you can’t function. The cold air hitting your lungs causes you to have an asthma attack, so you stay home rather than go out. You turn to your medication to keep your asthma at bay. Does this sound like you?

Choosing a natural asthma treatment may be what you need not only to relieve your symptoms, but also to heal your body from within.

# 1. Asthma (natural treatment)

Asthma is an inflammatory reaction to allergens and irritants. Before we can deal with inflammation, it is important to begin the process of treating your asthma naturally by analyzing your environment.

Eliminate all allergens and irritants that can trigger an asthma attack: chemicals, sprays, animal dander, certain medications, molds, perfumes, pollen, sulfites, to name a few.

Jane had asthma since she was 5 years old (61 years ago) but had it well controlled until about 14 years ago. Then in spring you would have to wear a filter mask when walking your dog or you would end up with an asthma attack. This continued for 3 years. After learning how toxic the indoor air was in her home, she eliminated all chemical allergens and hasn’t had to wear a filter mask or have an asthma attack in 10 years. She credits not having chemical allergens in the house to aggravate outdoor allergens.

Jane made a change in her surroundings and, as you can see, it made a dramatic difference to her breathing and her ability to get out without having an asthma attack.

# 2. Asthma (natural treatment)

Our diets are one of the main sources of inflammation that we face on a daily basis. We eat at least three times a day, and that repetitive level of inflammation needs to be addressed if you’re ever going to stop some of your medications and breathe easier.

Eat more anti-inflammatory foods such as: apricots, cruciferous vegetables, onions, papaya, pumpkin, and tomatoes. Foods to avoid: citrus fruits, dairy, colorants and preservatives, sugar and wheat.

# 3. Asthma (natural treatment)

People with asthma should pay special attention to fats because good fats are anti-inflammatory. Omega 3 fatty acids have an anti-inflammatory effect, while omega 6 fatty acids promote inflammation. We tend to eat foods that are high in Omega-6 fatty acids. Good examples of omega-3 fatty acids are from fish. Increase your intake of fish (or take a high-quality fish oil supplement), nuts, olive oil while decreasing the amount of canola oil and processed foods of any kind.

# 4. Asthma (natural treatment)

Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that live in our gut and are commonly destroyed by the antibiotics we take regularly. Probiotic supplementation can help cure asthma naturally from within.

# 5. Asthma (natural treatment)

Asthmatics often lack crucial nutrients due to chronic inflammation in the body. Take a high-quality nutritional supplement that supplies all the vitamins and minerals important to the immune system.
