Ditch the Inhaler and Make This Juice to Cure Asthma Attacks!

by in Food, Health February 6, 2017

People who suffer from asthma deal with things like shortness of breath on an almost daily basis. If someone you know has trouble breathing they very well may have asthma.

Asthma attacks are the result of some sort of allergy or sensitivity. When someone has an asthma attack their lungs have become irritated causing their muscles to tighten and for their body to cause phlegm to overwhelm the throat. People who deal with asthma use inhalers to relieve these things. Of course, when things are urgent it is ideal to use your inhaler. However, using it all the time is not good using as needed is completely understandable.

When it comes to reducing asthmatic issues it is important to change your diet increase your healthy food intake and decrease the unhealthy. Eat foods that will lower inflammation and increase energy. Always get foods that are rich in vitamin C and eat things like celery.

If you’re looking to eventually cut out your inhaler altogether (I still suggest carrying one in case of emergencies) then using foods as well as juices to do so is possible. Drinking lots of carrot juice is definitely the best place to start. Carrot juice is overflowing with vitamin C.
