How to Treat Asthma with Naturopathy

Few things are as terrifying as witnessing a full-blown asthma attack. Thankfully, with advances in medical treatments and inhalers, asthma sufferers are often able to stop an attack before it becomes dangerous. Natural treatments may decrease the odds of having an attack in the first place.

Difficulty: Challenging

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Licorice
• Ginkgo biloba
• Vitamin E
• Vitamin C
• Coffee
• Parsley tea
• Onions
• Fresh pineapple

1. Keep your inhaler even if you feel better after starting natural methods of treatment. The goal is to keep you from suffering from an attack but if one occurs; your inhaler is the quickest way to open your breathing passages.

2. Put natural herbal treatments to work for you. The Chinese have used licorice for centuries in treating asthma. Take the herbal form or drink the tea; the popular candy may not contain real licorice. Try ginkgo biloba supplements. As an oxygen enhancer, ginkgo increases circulation and provides vital oxygen to cells, countering the damage from an attack.

3. Increase your consumption of Vitamin E as an anti-inflammatory that may reduce the incidence of attack. In addition, Vitamin C helps suppress the release of histamines that often trigger asthma attacks. Consult your doctor about a safe dosage.

4. Have that cup of coffee in the morning. Coffee contains a substance similar to theopyhlline which is beneficial for opening bronchial tubes. Tea made from parsley leaves acts as an herbal expectorant, helping to clear the lungs.

5. Eat your onions. Studies indicate that onions contain a substance that inhibits spasms in bronchial muscles. Cook onions as little as possible to retain the greatest benefit.

6. Make pineapple a regular treat at your house. Buy the fresh variety at the grocery store and eat it for breakfast, desert or for a snack during the day to provide bromelain, a digestive aid and a strong anti-inflammatory.

7. Clean up your surroundings. Dust and dirt may trigger an asthma attack. Prevention is the key.

Tips & Warnings

• Supplement your lifestyle with alternative natural asthma treatments but don't quit taking medicine prescribed for you by your doctor, even if you feel better.
• Keep an inhaler handy at all times. An asthma attack can be fatal if not treated quickly.
