An article on how to adapt your lifestyle to reduce the occurrence of Asthma attacks.
These are some of the asthma treatments, tips and techniques that I've found to be useful and effective...
Keep your home free of allergens as much as possible. Hoover and wipe away dust at least weekly. Dust proof daytime covers for your pillows and bed linen can be a good investment for asthmatics.
More specifically, if animal hair causes you problems, keep your pet outdoors or, at the very least, out of your bedroom. Give your pet a good wash often - good luck if you have a cat! If pollen is a trigger for your asthma, stay indoors whilst the pollen count is high.
Avoid perfumes - if something can make your eyes water, it isn't going to help with your asthma very much.
Reduce your intake of mucus-encouraging foods such as dairy products, those made with whitened flour and highly-refined foods.
Drink water often, to assist in the thinning of any mucus in the lungs.
Use a de-humidifier if levels inside your house often peak at over 50%. Ensure good room ventilation when in the shower, stove top cooking, or any other steam producing activity.
Wear a balaclava or use a scarf to cover your mouth and nose in the winter time.
If you still find yourself suffering an asthma attack:
Try placing a wet, warm towel on your chest to relax your muscles and restore normal breathing. If that does not help, sit down and lean forwards. Breath slowly and try to relax all the muscles in your body - it will then require less oxygen. If exercising at the time, slow down or stop completely.
