Asthma : Home Remedies suggested by users
carbohydrates, fats and proteins


The patient should avoid common dietetic errors. Ideally, his diet should contain a limited quantity of carbohydrates, fats and proteins which are 'acid-forming' foods, and a liberal quantity of alkali-forming foods consisting of fresh fruits, green vegetables, sprouted seeds, and grains. The patient should avoid foods which tend to produce phlegm, such as rice, sugar, lentils, and curds. He should also avoid fried and other difficult to-digest foods, strong tea, coffee, alcoholic beverages, condiments pickles, sauces and all refined and processed foods.

Other Suggestions for Asthma
Fasting and exercises


The patient should also follow the other laws of nature. Air, sun, and water are great healing agents. Regular fasting once a week, an occasional enema, breathing exercises, fresh air, a dry climate, light exercises, and correct posture go a long way in treating the disease.
PS. onions, and green tea are good too ,

Subhanallah!! My daughter has asthma,(very mild though) and I did not know half these things. I did not know about the lemon, don't know if she will drink it though, lol! And the Honey, well that is a remedy within itself, mashallah. Will try a couple of these inshallah. She does'nt get attacks too often, but when she does, its scary and sometimes the medicines don't work. Natural is ALWAYS the best anyway. Jazakallahu Khairan for sharing, very beneficial information.:blackhijab:
