Asthma is a disease of the human respiratory system where the airways narrow, often in response to a "trigger" such as exposure to an allergen, cold air, exercise, or emotional stress. This airway narrowing causes symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing, which respond to bronchodilators.
Im wondering if any of you would try alternative remedies for your asthma? I have asthma,also stomach trouble. Some of the things people recommend for stomach trouble are suposed to help asthma too. One thing is Aloe vera juice,though Ive tried it and it hasn't helped my stomach,another is Slippery elm which is meant to be wonderful for allsorts of illnesses. Im just coming round to trying it as I get no relief from the stomach inflammation. I searched "natural remedies for inflammation in the body". I read about Omega 3 and other things. They are worth a try and work for some. What do you think? You can't take them the same time as meds though. You have to leave about an hour apart.
I have been working on the Butenko Method of breathing for about 3 months, take apple cider vinegar (2 tablespoons over the course of a day), and use the Budwig Protocol (in the am only). I workout daily, step machine 16 minutes, cardioglide 8 minutes plus stretching and weightlifting. My diet is pretty good....at night I rinse my nasal passages out with a neti-pot.
The result.....I have not had to take ANY prescription meds for 2 months. My meds are just sitting in the cabinet getting dusty. I feel GREAT...breathe great, and hope others can find their passage to health. This is a wonderful feeling. Blessings!
