Top 5 Steps to Beat Asthma – Natural Treatment
Suffering with Asthma every day is like having extra work trying to control symptoms. It only takes a day when the air pollution is higher than normal and makes you pant so hard you can’t make it to work. Cold air hitting your lungs triggers an asthma attack, so you stay home rather than go out. You turn to your medication to keep your asthma at bay. Does this ring a bell?
Choosing a natural asthma treatment may be what you need to not only relieve your symptoms but also heal your body from the inside out.
#1. Asthma (Natural Treatment)
Asthma is an inflammatory reaction to allergens and irritants. Before we can treat inflammation, it’s important to start the process of treating asthma naturally by analyzing your environment.
Eliminate all allergens and irritants that can trigger an asthma attack: chemicals, sprays, animal dander, certain medications, mold, perfumes, pollens, 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 the spring, she would have to wear a filter mask when she walked her dog or she would end up with an asthma attack. This went on for 3 years. After learning how toxic the indoor air in her house was, she eliminated all chemical allergens and she didn’t have to wear a filter mask or have an asthma attack in 10 years. She credits not having the chemical allergens in the house to compound the allergens outdoors.
Jane made a change in her environment, and as you can see, it made a big difference in 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 ever want to get off some of your meds and breathe easier.
Eat more anti-inflammatory foods like: apricots, cruciferous vegetables, onions, papaya, squash, and tomatoes. Foods to avoid: Citrus, dairy, dyes and preservatives, sugar and wheat.
#3. Asthma (Natural Treatment)
People with asthma should pay special attention to fats because the 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 rich in Omega-6 fatty acids. Good examples of omega-3 fatty acids are found in 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 on a regular basis. Supplementing with probiotics can help cure asthma naturally from the inside out.
#5. Asthma (Natural Treatment)
Often times, asthmatics are deprived of crucial nutrients due to chronic inflammation in the body. Take a high-quality nutritional supplement that supplies all the important vitamins and minerals for the immune system.
