Alternative Asthma Treatment:
People suffering from Asthma have a difficult time breathing. For people without this disorder, it is hard to understand, as they see sufferers experiencing good and bad times, with this disorder.
However, if you're looking to reduce your dependence on any asthma crutch, here are some simple lifestyle changes you can make:
- Eat a healthy diet, being especially careful to reduce or avoid sugar, fruit juices, most grains and pasteurized dairy products.
- Replacing commercial milk with raw milk from grass-fed cows is also usually well tolerated and highly health promoting. However, even raw milk may worsen asthma so you will need to be careful here.
- Include generous amounts of omega-3 fats in your diet. I find Carlson fish oil and cod liver oil to be one of the most superior brands available as it conforms to the strictest guidelines for purity and freshness.
- Exercise has been proven to lessen the effects of Asthma.

For people over 40, Asthma could be called a nutritional and hormonal disorder. We can find the solution to the problem, by testing for nutritional and hormonal deficiencies. Asthma can start to develop, from a hormonal prospective, as we age. We all ( both men and women ) begin to lose both progesterone and testosterone. We also start gaining a very powerful hormone estradiol. Estradiol is about 300 times more potent in the body, than either progesterone or testosterone and therefore it occupies the cell sites, that should be occupied by progesterone and testosterone.

Nutritional problems can start before birth. What the mother does during pregnancy, can set the stage for the childs nutritional problems. We would be much healthier if we simply stay away from problem foods, such as non-organic meat, fruits and vegetables. Non-organic foods are actualy poisoned with un-natural hormones and pesticides. To simplify this, we need to know that we can defeat the symptoms, of what we have been told by allopathic doctors are diseases. When we get our nutrition and our hormonal problems balanced, we can begin to strengthen our immune system, which is the only way we are going to correct the true disease, nutritional and hormonal deficiency.
There is hope for people afflicted with Asthma, without resorting to controversial drugs. This disorder is characterized by a difficult time breathing, in the early stages, progressing to the use of inhalers in a later stage . Alternative doctors recognize that some vitamins and herbal substances are usually more helpfull than RX drugs, without the side effects.
Because heavy metals play a large part in All Disorders, Chelation Therapy is a must to remove Aluminum, Mercury, Nickel and several other toxic metals from the body. For more information on Chelation: Detoxamin Suppositories or Chelation Therapy
Holistic lifestyle changes can help to both prevent the condition and offer relief to those experiencing the various symptoms. A good diet with a high quality whole food supplementation program, would be beneficial, as shown below.
Asthma
This respiratory ailment affects up to 20 million Americans and is becoming increasingly common, presumably because of worsening air pollution.
Best foods: Chili peppers... fish... and coffee.
People who regularly consume hot sauces or chili peppers may have less frequent -- and less severe -- asthma attacks. Capsaicin, the chemical that makes peppers hot, may stimulate nerve endings to help keep airways open. The fatty acids in cold-water fish, such as salmon, tuna and sardines, lower levels of prostaglandins and leukotrienes, chemicals that increase airway swelling.
Helpful: Three or more three-ounce servings of fish each week can reduce the frequency of asthma attacks.
Doctors traditionally have advised people to drink one cup of strong coffee at the onset of asthma attacks if none of their usual medications are available. One of the active ingredients, methylxanthine, relaxes airway muscles.
Adult asthmatics who drink several cups of caffeinated coffee daily have 30% fewer asthma attacks than noncoffee drinkers. I recommend three to four cups a day, provided you don't have active ulcers or cardiac arrhythmias.
