Bernhard, a Natural Health On The Web newsletter subscriber asks:

Thanks for all the info you continue to send, much appreciated. I do have a question. What is Adult Asthma, what are the early symptoms, can it be treated? I look forward to your response.

Answer by Consumer Health Advocate, Frank Mangano


Thank you for writing in with your question Bernhard. Simply put, asthma is a lung disease that causes blockage of the airways, which results in what's known to asthma sufferers as “starving for air.”  Let's begin by describing the early symptoms associated with Asthma.

Some very common symptoms of an asthma attack are wheezing, coughing, tightness in the chest as well as difficulty breathing and even chest pain.

Asthma may also be hard to diagnose as the symptoms can also be related to other conditions including bronchitis and emphysema. To be sure, ask your healthcare practitioner to perform a spirometry, which measures the air you breathe into and out of your lungs. Further testing is sometimes necessary

Asthma medications DO NOT treat the underlying cause and can have some pretty scary side effects. Many of these drugs can also cause jittery nerves, which can trigger an asthma attack! It is my opinion that asthma can be treated naturally and there are many natural alternatives available so let's get to it:

Start consuming  a green drink  each day. What's a green drink you might ask?  Green drink formulas are whole food supplements that contain unprocessed whole foods in their natural state. These are very powerful in the prevention and treatment of any disease. I recommend you check out the Super Green Formula by Garden of Life.

RidgeCrest Herbals manufactures a Chinese Herbal formula called “ClearLungs,” which helps minimize inflammation and mucus and promote free breathing by opening up the lung's airways.

Pau' d arco is a powerful herb that holds anti-inflammatory properties. It's also available as a tea. Consume 3 cups of the tea daily.

The proper omega-3 balance in the body is important as this has effects on inflammation. Supplement with a high-quality fish oil such as Carlson's Liquid Fish and Cod Liver Oil.

Consume garlic and onions in your diet as they contain quercetin, which has been shown to stop an enzyme that aids in releasing inflammatory chemicals.

Begin the process of elimination. There are certain foods that actually worsen asthmatic conditions. These include eggs, peanuts, soy and diary products just to name a few. It's important that you eliminate ALL processed foods and refined sugars from your diet.

Most of us are familiar with the long list of negative consequences stress can produce. You can add asthma attacks to that list. Start finding ways to relieve stress and worry. Exercising is one of the most important tools for stress management. If you find that exercising produces an asthmatic response, try taking 2,000 milligrams of vitamin c one hour prior to working out. An asthmatic response during and after exercise may be an indictor of excessive sodium intake.

I hope this information will help you breathe easier! I wish you the very best of health.
