Asthma
Asthma is a chronic ailment characterized by a spasmodic narrowing of the airways accompanied by wheezing and shortness of breath. It often has genetic and emotional influences; food and respiratory allergies may also play a role in increasing inflammation and reactivity of the bronchial tissues.
Treatment Plan for Asthma
Try excluding eggs, wheat, and dairy products–one at a time–from your diet. An herbal program should include adrenal tonics, antispasmodic herbs for the respiratory tract, anti-inflammatories for the respiratory tract and relaxing nervines.
