Herbal Organic Supplements To Control Asthma.| With No Side Effects
Asthma is a lung disease that causes obstruction of the airways. This results in difficulty in breathing. It is an overreaction of the body"s own immune system usually caused by exposure to an allergen, a substance that the body perceives as foreign and dangerous.
During an asthma attack, spasms in the muscles surrounding the bronchi (small airways in the lungs) constrict, impending the outward passage of air. Asthma suffers often describe this plight as "starving for air".
There are two forms of asthma;
1.Allergic
2.Non- allergic
Although the two often occur together.

"Allergy may be caused by either external environment or by a person"s food intake.
"Major risk factors include: physical inactivity, excess body weight, tobacco smoking, and poor diet and nutrition.
