Asthma natural treatment

Asthma is a chronic lung disease which has affected people of all ages including children. In this disease the muscles of the air tubes get constricted or swollen or excessive mucus production is observed in the airways leading to difficulty in breathing. The particular cause of the disease is not known as many people have it and many don't but doctors say that it may be due to certain genetic factors. Studies show that it has affected more than 3.2 crore people of the world and is more prevalent in developed countries like the USA in which 2.5 crore cases have been observed. There is no treatment of asthma so far but the symptoms can be treated and managed effectively. The symptoms are flared up by certain factors such as dust, pollen, exercise, stress, weather, illnesses. In some people the symptoms of asthma may come and go leaving the person to be normal in between but in other people the symptoms may be persistent. It can occur in children below the age of five years as well as adults above the age of 18 years. So no age group can be considered safe. The persons who work in an environment which contains certain irritating substances are at the highest risk to develop asthma. 

Causes of asthma

Asthma can be triggered by certain substances which irritate you and if a person comes in contact with such substances he can have an asthma attack. A few factors which triggers asthma have been described below-

  • Air pollutants- The most common factor which triggers the symptoms of asthma leading to an asthma attack is air pollution. Nowadays the AQI of various cities have increased which has led to various respiratory problems including asthma. The most common sources of air pollution are smoke from the industries, factories and refineries, increased usage of automobiles leading to increased carbon emissions etc.
  • Household pests such as mice, cockroaches, flies etc can also lead to an asthma attack.
  • Smoking- The most common cause of asthma is tobacco smoking. One who smokes is at an increased risk of having asthma. Passive smoking is even more dangerous. So it is advised to stay away from people who are smoking if you have asthma.

Symptoms of asthma

Usually the symptoms of asthma may appear like symptoms of respiratory infections, hence proper diagnosis is necessary. The symptoms of asthma include wheezing, feeling of tightness in the chest, pain in the chest, coughing which is more prominent at night, feeling of shortness of breath etc.

Natural treatment methods 

There are some natural remedies and treatment methods which may help in the management of asthma. However they must be done along with the medications of asthma simultaneously for best results. Don't leave your medications without the advice of your doctor. They are as follows -

  • Change in the diet- A person who is overweight can have severe symptoms of asthma. So reducing weight and taking a balanced diet is very important. Including more and more fruits and vegetables and anti-inflammatory foods in the diet which can treat the inflammation of the airways is very important. 
  • Garlic- However there is no evidence that garlic helps to relieve the symptoms of asthma but as it has anti inflammatory properties, experts suggest that the consumption of garlic can help in the management of asthma.
  • Ginger- It also contains anti-inflammatory properties and a study showed improvement in the symptoms of asthma while consuming ginger but there is no conclusive evidence.
  • Caffeine- It can help in reducing the constriction of the muscles of the airways and can help improve its functioning for a few hours.
  • Honey- It is used in the common cold along with warm water or any other hot beverage to relieve the symptoms. It can soothe the throat and symptoms such as coughing. But there is no conclusive evidence whether it can effectively manage the symptoms of asthma. But the people suffering from it can give it a try.
  • Omega 3 oils- These have been known to reduce inflammation and improve the functioning of the lungs, hence can help in the management of asthma.
  • Acupuncture- A few people have benefited from this technique and have reported improvement in breathing and lung functioning but there is no conclusive evidence of this too.
  • Buteyko breathing method- This method refers to certain breathing exercises which help in reducing the symptoms of asthma and managing it effectively through gentle and slow breathing. It involves breathing through the nose instead of the mouth as breathing from the mouse can dry up the airways which could worsen the asthma. It can be adopted as a method to manage asthma but there is no conclusive evidence to support the method.

The natural methods discussed above should only be practised after taking advice from a medical practitioner and no one should skip their medications before consulting the doctor. Everybody is different and responds to different treatments and there is no harm in adopting natural methods which could help improve your condition.

अस्थमा का प्राकृतिक इलाज

प्रदूषण, इस समय की लाइफ स्टाइल और बाकी कारणों की वजह से अस्थमा के मामले इन दिनों काफी बढ़ रहे हैं। अस्थमा एक ऐसी स्थिति है जिसमें सांस लेने की नली और  वायुमार्ग पतले हो जाते हैं या उनमें सूजन आ जाती है। ऐसी स्थिति में शरीर अतिरिक्त बलगम का उत्पादन कर सकता हैं।

इससे सांस लेना मुश्किल हो सकता है और सांस लेने में तकलीफ हो सकती है। अस्थमा की समस्या हर व्यक्ति के लिए अलग अलग हो सकती है। किसी के लिए यह एक छोटी सी परेशानी है। दूसरों के लिए, यह एक बड़ी समस्या हो सकती है। कई बार कुछ लोगों को जानलेवा अस्थमा का दौरा पड़ सकता है।

इस समस्या का सबसे खतरनाक पहलू है कि अस्थमा को ठीक नहीं किया जा सकता है, लेकिन इसके लक्षणों को नियंत्रित किया जा सकता है। वैकल्पिक चिकित्सा और प्राकृतिक उपचार में भी इस समय अस्थमा का कोई इलाज नहीं है। यह जरुर है कि कुछ प्राकृतिक उपचार आपको अस्थमा के लक्षणों को ठीक करने, उन्हें दबाने में मदद कर सकते हैं।

कुछ प्राकृतिक विश्राम, खाद्य पदार्थों में कुछ चीजों को शामिल करना, लाइफस्टाइल के उपाय जैसे योग और ध्यान, गहरी साँस लेना, मांसपेशियों में राहत दिलाने वाली एक्सरसाइज, गाइडेड इमेजरी और बायोफीडबैक तनाव को दूर करने में मदद कर सकते हैं।

ध्यान और योग

अस्थमा के हमलों के लिए तनाव  एक प्रमुख ट्रिगर है।  नियमित योग या ध्यान अभ्यास तनाव को कम करने के लिए सांस लेने की तकनीक सीखने में मदद कर सकता है। ध्यान और योग के दौरान उपयोग की जाने वाली धीमी, गहरी सांसें आपके श्वसन तंत्र को आराम दिलाती हैं। इन्हें  हाइपरवेंटिलेशन को कम करने के लिए तैयार किया जाता है। प्राणायाम और बुटेको ब्रीदिंग जैसी तकनीक में श्वास को प्रशिक्षित करने और अस्थमा के हमलों को रोकने के लिए बहुत प्रभावी पायी गयी हैं।

एक्यूपंक्चर

एक्यूपंक्चर वैकल्पिक चिकित्सा में आपके शरीर की ऊर्जा को संतुलित करने के लिए कुछ बिंदुओं पर त्वचा में छोटी सुइयों को चुभाना शामिल है। अस्थमा से पीड़ित कुछ लोगों का मानना ​​है कि यह विधि अस्थमा के लक्षणों को कम करने में मदद कर सकती है। इस चिकित्सा में अक्सर विश्राम और ध्यानपूर्ण श्वास शामिल होती है ऐसे में एक्यूपंचर में राहत मिलने के लिए इसे लाभकारी माना जा सकता है।

बायोफीडबैक

बायोफीडबैक एक दृष्टिकोण है जो इलेक्ट्रॉनिक उपकरणों का उपयोग कर आपके शरीर में होने वाले बदलाव की निगरानी करता है।  इससे यह सीखने में मदद मिल सके कि शरीर की शारीरिक प्रतिक्रियाओं को कैसे प्रबंधित किया जाए। उदाहरण के लिए, हृदय गति की निगरानी की निगरानी की जाा सकती है और इसे मध्यम गति से नियंत्रित रखने के तरीके खोज सकते हैं। यह विधि हृदय गति परिवर्तनशीलता को प्रभावित कर सकती है और अस्थमा के रोगियों को वायुमार्ग के प्रवाह और फेफड़ों के कार्य में सुधार करने में मदद कर सकती है। इससे यह भी संकेत समझा जा सकता है कि आराम करना स्वाभाविक रूप से अस्थमा के हमलों को रोकने में एक बड़ी भूमिका निभा सकता है।

स्टीम बाथ (भाप से स्नान)

यह प्राकृतिक उपचार अस्थमा के लक्षणों को संभावित रूप से कम करने के सबसे सरल तरीकों में से एक है। जब लोग एक सामान्य सर्दी से पीड़ित होते हैं तो वायुमार्ग खोलने के लिए गर्म भाप एक सामान्य उपाय है। हालांकि यह कोई इलाज नहीं है, लेकिन अस्थमा के लक्षण सामने आने पर यह तेजी से ठीक कर सकता है। बस ध्यान रहे कि भाप ज्यादा गर्म न हो। अत्यधिक गर्मी कभी-कभी लक्षणों को बदतर बना सकती है।

आहार

अस्थमा के लक्षणों को रोकने और राहत देने के लिए कोई जादुई आहार नहीं है, लेकिन खाद्य एलर्जी कभी-कभी अस्थमा को ट्रिगर करती है और एक आहार अद्यतन राहत ला सकता है। हर व्यक्ति अपने में अलग होता है ऐसे में अपनी सटीक डाइट खोजने के लिए डायटीशियन का सहारा लेना पड़ सकता है।  आहार विशेषज्ञ के साथ बातकर कोई बी अपने लिए एक आहार खोज सता है जो उसके शरीर के लिए सही हो। कुछ सामान्य आहार परिवर्तन जो अस्थमा पीड़ितों को राहत पहुंचा सकते हैं उनमें विटामिन सी,डी एंटीऑक्सिडेंट से भरपूर फल और सब्जियां शामिल हैं। अस्थमा से पीड़ित व्यक्ति को  सल्फाइट्स से बचना चाहिए। साथ ही, स्वस्थ वजन बनाए रखने से लक्षणों को कम करने में मदद मिलती है।

लहसुन और अदरक

जो खाद्य पदार्थ आप हर दिन खाते हैं वह प्राकृतिक उपचार के लिए एक सुरक्षित मार्ग हो सकता है। अदरक और लहसुन दोनों में सूजन-रोधी गुण होते हैं और आमतौर पर इसका उपयोग हृदय रोग के प्रबंधन के लिए किया जाता है। यह उपचार फेफड़ों में सूजन को भी कम कर सकता है और अस्थमा के हमलों को रोकने या राहत देने में मदद कर सकता है।

ओमेगा 3s

क्या आपको लगता है कि मछली का तेल सिर्फ कोलेस्ट्रॉल के लिए अच्छा था? यह पता चला है कि ये फैटी एसिड हृदय रोग को रोकने में मदद करते हैं, वायुमार्ग की सूजन को भी कम कर सकते हैं और फेफड़ों के कार्य में मदद कर सकते हैं। यदि आप सप्लीमेंट लेना पसंद नहीं करते हैं, तो मछली, अखरोट और अलसी जैसे ओमेगा 3 से भरपूर खाद्य पदार्थ खाने से फायदा हो सकता है।

हल्दी

हल्दी, आमतौर भारतीय किचन का सबसे आम और विशिष्ट मसाला है। यहा करी और अन्य भारतीय और मध्य पूर्वी व्यंजनों में पाया जाता है। इसमें एक सक्रिय घटक होता है करक्यूमिन। अक्सर करक्यूमिन में पाया जाने वाला सूजन रोधी गुण और एंटीऑक्सीडेंट गुण अस्थमा के लिए एक संभावित प्राकृतिक उपचार के रूप में जाना जाता है। कुछ हद तक वैज्ञानिक भी इसे स्वीकार करते हैं।

एक अध्ययन में पाया गया कि अस्थमा से पीड़ित वयस्क जिन्होंने एक महीने के लिए प्रति दिन 500 मिलीग्राम करक्यूमिन के साथ अपने सामान्य अस्थमा उपचार को पूरक किया, उनके अस्थमा के लक्षणों में सुधार हुआ।

विटामिन सी (एस्कॉर्बिक एसिड)

अस्थमा के लिए विटामिन सी का उपयोग करने को लेकर वैज्ञानिकों को अभी एक मत नहीं है पर बहुत से लोग इसे राहत देने वाला उपाय मानते हैं।

एसेंशियल ऑयल

एसेंशियल ऑयल तेलों से बहुत से लोगों को राहत मिलती है क्योंक उनके भाप में सांस लेने पर वो लक्षणों में सुधार की बात स्वीकार करते हैं। हालांकि बहुत से डाक्टर मानते हैं कि एशेंशियल ऑयल से एलर्जी की प्रतिक्रिया भी हो सकती है। कई बार ये तेल परेशानी बढ़ा भी सकते हैं । ऐसे में एरोमा थेरेपिस्ट से बात करने बाद ही इनका उपयोग करना सही होता है।

How To Prevent Asthma Attack?

How To Prevent Asthma Attack?

Tips to prevent asthma attack.

1. Say no to smoking – smoking affects the lungs severely, especially when you are going through the asthma trouble. In most of the asthma cases, the rate of wheezing or coughing steps up when the patient is exposed to a smoky environment. An asthma patient must not allow anyone to smoke around them or avoid places where he/she is prone to smoke. Not only the tobacco smoke but any kind of smoke inside the home must be removed using exhauster appliance.

2. Avoid stress – too much excitement also acts as a trigger to asthma attack. Try to remain in a balanced state. Accept all kinds of emotional stuff lightly. Find a workplace that offers you a serene atmosphere and a tolerable pressure of work. Avoid arguments with people.

3. Avoid extreme temperatures – try to make yourself comfortable in a normal temperature. Avoid excessively hot or chilled environment exposure. Keep the air condition temperature normal. Say goodbye to the humid environment. The fresh morning environment exposure is a good natural treatment for asthma.

4. Maintain cleanliness around – dust is the most trigger for asthma patients. Whether you are an asthma patient or not, you may be allergic to dust and find yourself in a terrible sneezing situation after the dust exposure. It is better to keep the household interiors clean. Maintain regular cleaning.

5. Remove damp inside home – damp also adds on to asthma attacks and you must have a dehumidifier in your home.

Asthma - Have Homeopathy At Your Rescue!

Asthma is a severe respiratory disease, which occurs due to the inflammation of the airways of lungs. The airways of the lungs get swollen due to the inflammation, which cause production of mucus. Due to the effect of excessive mucus and swelling, the air path gets hindered. In such a condition, breathing becomes difficult and a wheezing sound appears at the time of breathing. Usually, the patient coughs very often.

These are the common symptoms of asthma:

  • Breathlessness
  • Whistling sound while breathing
  • Wheezing in chest
  • Mucus-producing cough
  • Tightness and heaviness in breathing
  • Heaviness in chest while running, walking or performing any activity

Asthma - How Can Homeopathy Get Rid Of It?

Asthma is a condition that severely affects the lungs. The airways become narrow and the lungs become inflamed. Its characteristic features include bronchospasm, reversible airflow obstruction and variable and recurring symptoms such as coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and chest tightness. This might be caused up to 2 to 3 times a day.

Causes -
It isn’t definite as to what causes asthma in some and not in others, but a combination of genetic and environmental factors is a probable reason. Factors that trigger asthma is varied and is subjective. Some common causes of asthma include:

  1. Airborne matters, such as cockroach waste particles, pet dander, mold spores, dust mites or pollen
  2. Respiratory Infections
  3. Physical activity
  4. Cold air
  5. Irritants (such as smoking) and air pollutants
  6. Some medications, such as naproxenibuprofen, beta-blockers and aspirin
  7. Stress and strong emotions
  8. Preservatives and sulphites added to some beverages and food, such as wine, beer, processed potatoes, dried fruit and shrimp
  9. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (Stomach acids retreat into the throat)

Homeopathy is a system of medicine which tries to ‘cure’ this disease, instead of trying to provide symptomatic relief. While dealing with a case of asthma, a homeopath not only records the symptoms of the disease but also studies the medical history, family history, physical and psychological characteristics of a person. This helps to find the cause, the precipitating factors, and the hereditary tendency, etc. Of special interest to a homeopath is the history of suppression of skin disease. Homeopaths believe that when there is a tendency or predisposition for a disease – it first manifests on the less vital organs, towards the periphery (like skin). If this manifestation is suppressed than the disease shifts inwards, towards the more vital organs (like lungs, heart, brain, etc).

The fact that in children asthma is often preceded by eczema is observed by the allopaths also. This fact is written in all their textbooks of medicine. They say that children often ‘move-out’ of eczema and ‘move-into’ asthma. But they are unable to make a correlation. Homeopaths believe that the suppression of eczema with topical preparations, does not cure the disease/sensitivity of the person, it merely drives it inwards.

Now after ascertaining the symptoms and the cause, the homeopath tries to find a medicine which matches the symptoms as well as the general characteristics of the person. The medicine so selected is administered to the patient.

When a right medicine is given, asthma disappears but old eczema or skin rash reappears for some time, before finally disappearing itself. This reappearance of old symptoms is seen as a reversal of the disease process and is considered a very good prognostic sign by homeopaths.

MEDICINES – There are lots of medicines in homeopathy for asthma symptoms and it is not possible to list them all here. Some of the common medicines are ars- alb, ipecac, Lachesis, pulsatilla, spongia, sulphur, Ignatia, antim-tart, Hepar-sulph, nat-sulph, tuberculum, etc. The selection of medicine varies from patient to patient. Therefore, it is always recommended to consult a specialized homeopath for treating your individual case.
