A lot of people these days suffer from asthma and I always give them these tips As it's asthma awareness month I thought I'd share it with my fellow WeWork community as well...
Here are our 4 top tips to help manage asthma
1. Fruit and veg - simply adding a few more servings of greens to your diet has been shown in a randomised controlled trial to cut asthma attacks in half (L.G Wood, 2012).
2. Exercise daily - this will help maximise your aerobic fitness.
3. Eat foods that are known to be good for immunity:
- Spices - ginger turmeric, fennel, garlic, cumin & thyme.
- Prebiotic Fibres - chicory, endive, Jerusalem artichokes, garlic.
- Orange, yellow and greens - squash, sweet potato, parsley and spring greens.
- Zinc, Selenium and Vitamin E - cashews, almonds, Brazil nuts, sunflower seeds & flaxseeds.
4. Reduce your exposure to irritants such as dust, pollution, mould and mildew.
Remember there is no cure for asthma, you can only manage it. Chiropractic can help restore the normal flow of messages between the brain and body, allowing you to function at your best and adapt to the stresses of life. It can also help free up movement in your spine and ribcage helping you to breath easier... and who doesn't want that?!
