How to Use Natural Remedies for Asthma or Allergies
By Rudy Silva
A lot people have asthma. My daughter, 41 years, included. She
has suffered from attacks for many years. Recently I
encountered three natural remedies that I asked my daughter to try. I have not
yet received a report on these, so I would like to pass them on to you. Here is
the first one.
Boswellia
Boswellia, an herb, is known for its anti-inflammatory abilities and its
usefulness in reduces the effects of bronchitis, asthma, cough, laryngitis, and
fever. It comes from the resin of a tree in India and made into a pill or cream.
It is best known for use in arthritis.
Recommended dose is: 150mg three times a day.
Yamoa
Yamoa is an herbal powder treatment for Asthma, which is derived from the bark
of an African gum tree. It is available in capsule and has been typically used
to help asthma. It has a good history of helping asthma sufferers.
Minor Blue Dragon formula
The Minor Blue Dragon is a Chinese herbal formula. Another name for it is
xiao-qing-long-tang, or XQLT.It's a blend of eight herbal medicines used to
treat asthma for centuries in Asia
The XQLT formula has been used effectively for bronchial asthma for centuries
and it is said to have an even more powerful bronchodilator effect than
prescription drugs. This formulation contains ephedra, which has been banned in
the US in diet formulas. However, ephedra in this formula is considered safe,
since the formula only contains around 15% of this herb. The other ingredients
in XQLT are paeonia alba, cinnamon, pinellia, ginger, schisandar, asarum, and
glycyrrhiza.
Nutritional Supplements That Help Reduce Asthma
Antioxidants
In addition to the above herbs it is also important to take a good supply of
antioxidants - especially vitamins A, C, and E, carotenoids, and selenium.
Taking antioxidants helps to reduce the irritating effects of airborne free
radicals, which can activate an asthma attack.
Magnesium
Magnesium has been shown to reduce the risk of developing asthma and might also
be helpful in reducing asthma. Magnesium is also good for asthmatics because it
helps to dilate the bronchioles. Also, make sure that plenty of water is drunk
daily, which thins mucus. The recommended dosage of magnesium is 200-600 mg/day.
MSM
MSM has also proven useful for asthma aside from being beneficial for arthritis,
allergies, fatigue, back pain, sinusitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, autoimmune
diseases, and many other conditions. Start with 2000mg of MSM per day but be
sure to take 50 to 150 micrograms of molybdenum daily since MSM needs molybdenum
to activate it properly.
I was able to find a product that already has the proper molybdenum in the MSM,
which makes it convenient to take just one pill. Go to google and put in the
words "MSM molybdenum" and you will find some web sites that sell this MSM
combination.
