How Do You Treat Asthma Naturally?

Treating asthma naturally is easier than people think, yet it can seem hard if you aren’t aware about how to do it.

1. Try eliminating gluten and dairy from your diet. This can be challenging however, in many people gluten and dairy makes asthma worse. Stick to it strictly for at least a month. Take a journal and notes about how you feel. Pay special attention to your breathing patterns, coughing and other asthma symptoms. If you are feeling a lot better then you probably should avoid gluten and dairy as much as possible for life. However, you may still be able to eat these in small quantities. I personally have to be careful with dairy products when I am sick, coughing or for a few days after having an asthma attack but I can still eat them the rest of the year, as long as I do not eat dairy to excess. However, each person is different.

2. If you are finding avoiding gluten and dairy completely to be too difficult and you know that you do not have several allergies to either of these then try avoiding drinking milk. For many people who have asthma, they can eat cheese and other products that have milk in them but drinking milk causes asthma attacks and an increase in coughing.

3. Increase your intake of vitamin C and vitamin B 12. You can do this easily with Energy-C packs that you buy at the grocery store and mix with water or juice and drink.

4. Use essential oils. Peppermint, and eucalyptus are two of the best ones for asthma.

5. See a chiropractor. Many people think chiropractors are only for your back or knee pain but they can help with much more than that. My asthma symptoms have gone down dramatically since I began going to a chiropractor once every two weeks.

6. Exercise by swimming, ice skating, yoga, or other calmer and less intensive methods.
