Vitamin B6 is medically proven to help with asthma. Also I find if I hang my body off the side of my be so that my head touches the ground and bang on my chest that helps clean out the lung butter. too much or too little humidity is a bad thing. standing in a room full of steam is NOT a good idea! neither is milk or dairy products!!! ASPRIN IS EVIL!!! if you have asthma.. That includes IBprophin and A.S.A. (Acidysilic Acid or something like that.).. hope this helps.

DO NOT TAKE ASPRIN! if you have asthma it will agrivate your asthma believe me. i used to take it for headaches and everytime it nearly sent me into attach. So i went to the doctor and asked why i was getting the attaches so often and the first thing heasked was if i was taking asprin and i was. I have not taken asprin in a year and i have had one attach instead of the usual 3 a month i was having before.

I had adult onset asthma for 14 years. I was maxing out on my 3 medicines and still couldn't get it under control. Two years ago, I was desperate and thought I would research to see if new medical research showed anything I could do. After research, I started taking the following daily: 1-2 Tbsp. ground flaxseed in yogurt; Magnesium; Calcium;Co Q-10; Zinc; Vit D; Vit E; Vit C; Omega 3 Fish oil 2 capsules a day; Flaxseed oil 2 capsules (not good for men); selenium; B-50; 1 folic acid; gingko. This was in addition to my regular vitamin. I was hoping for a 10-25% improvement in breathing, and did not expect a reversal in the disease. I was very surprised to be able to no longer need my meds within a month. I think the Omega 3's in the flaxseed stopped the inflammation and I've read it takes about 2 weeks for them to affect every cell in the body. I don't take zinc or selenium everyday now as that is not recommended. But considering I used to have allergies 9 months out of the year and severe asthma with that, I am amazed. I am like I was before the asthma. I only need my inhaler if I am severely exposed to dust or an allergen now. In fact, I had to throw one out that expired and hadn't been used up. Another help I discovered was the Oxycise breathing method to open lung airways if exposed to allegens. I hope this helps you. I recommended it to another asthma sufferer and he was able to go off his meds as well.

Avoid things you are allergic with. You should do this besides the asthma anyway. If you have allergic reactions to foods, drinks, meds, etc... either take what the doctor gave you or stay away from the thing.
I have really bad allergic reactions to dogs and when I was younger I would get thrown right back into the hospital bed whenever I visited my cousin's house (which had a dog). Once I stopped staying over at their place the attacks lessen. Then about a year ago I found out I was extremely allergic to this popular cough medicine, it took ten minutes or so after I took it and I had a horrible asthma attack (which are rare now). The throat closed up and I was coughing even more than before (ironic since it was a cough med).
So yes... that's my tip. Stay away from the things that cause extreme allergic reactions cause they will trigger the asthma.
Other things that help me:
-Sitting up or standing
-Cold air (your body doesn't have to be freezing but you should breathe in the cold air. Take a few minutes or a little more)
-Taking long deep breaths as best I can and concentrate on that (it relaxes you and a calm self is better than one that's panicking)
