Posted by Shantige in HealthIf you are one of the many people who suffer from asthma, whether it be occasionally or regularly, you have probably tried a number of different remedies to get rid of it, or have probably relied on the use of inhalers to get you through. There is good news for those of you who are looking for a healthy and more natural approach for your asthma remedies.
What exactly is asthma? It is a chronic lung condition in which the lungs or bronchi are inflamed and this affects the ability of air to enter and leave the lungs. Thus, it disrupts the breathing. People who suffer from asthma tend to have sensitive or hyper-responsive airways that are narrowed or obstructed when they become irritated making it very difficult for the air to be able to move in and out. Asthma remedies are a way to treat the inflammation that occurs, and allow the air to be able to move in and out of the pathways without becoming obstructed.
There are different causes of asthma that include:
* Lack of exercise
* Genetic factors
* Dietary changes
* Occupational exposure
* Environmental factors
There are some home treatments that are natural and that you can use as asthma remedies:
* Honey - honey is very beneficial in the treatment of asthma. When you are having an asthma attack, place a jug of honey under your nose for a few minutes. You can also add a teaspoon of honey to a glass of water and take that three times a day
* Garlic gloves - boil garlic gloves in thirty grams of milk each day
* Ginger tea - steam ginger tea with minced garlic cloves twice a day
* Turmeric powder - a teaspoon of turmeric powder in a glass of milk taken two to three times a day, especially beneficial on an empty stomach
* Mustard oil - during an asthma attack mustard oil mixed with camphor should be massaged over the back of the chest
* Boiling water - inhale the steam from boiling water mixed with caraway seeds
* Radish, honey and lemon juice - blend together the radish, honey and lemon juice and mix for 20 minutes, cooking in a pan on low heat. Take one teaspoon daily in the morning.
