The breathing techniques you shared may be very good for helping people with asthma-like breathing issues due to irritants (ex: your difficulty breathing with pollen in the air and, perhaps, after a large meal); however, I ask you to please be cautious about extending your own experience with breathing problems that may not, in fact, be asthma to concluding that the "medical wisdom on asthma" is questionable. Human nature gives us all the terrible habit of generalizing from a sample of one, and I hope that your experience with misdiagnosed asthma will not confuse others attempting to learn about authentic forms of the disease. Sincerely, L Richard,

Slackening the muscles here causes abysmally weak and asthmatic breathing. Training the muscles, for example by “abdominal hollowing” (see Web articles) produces an antiasthmatic effect. Abdominal muscle tension plays a prominent part in Asian martial arts. I tend to breathe asthmatically after an evening meal or in pollen-laden air. So it is fair to assume that there is a natural breathing spectrum with an asthmatic tendency at one end and Ku Fu or Karate breathing at the other end. For a few words on the Japanese version of Asian breathing see http://www.lrz.de/~s3e0101/webserver/webdata/OBT.pdf Breathing powerfully into my lower abdomen with tensed muscles provides an effective cure for me. But then I’ve always been sceptical about medical wisdom on asthma.

Very few do not. It is most defintely the food and other external allergies that cause eczema. Dead sea products help to remove the itchiness and even the rash itself. Make sure to buy pure dead sea salts or even dead sea mud. There are a lot of stores that sell dead sea products. We buy from http://www.puritybeauty.com Most kids grow out of eczema.

When she has a cold, she has asthma symptoms and a stand-in doctor told us she will likely have asthma. The doctor acted like it was commonplace but my heart broke because I thought of how her life may need to change because of this lung disease. But I am going to do all I can to see that this doesn't happen. Thanks for the Vidazorb and aloe recommendations - will try them both to make sure that at least she will be comfortable. Then we'll try to find out what's out there to inhibit TSLP from entering her blood stream from eczema damaged skin... @Caroline

I used to get eczema-like rashes on my face during winter time. This cream has solved the problem completely. It is absorbed by the skin very quickly, there's no greasy residue. If you are prone to acne breakouts this cream will also work for you since the aloe has astringent properties. My sister who is prone to acne used it for her dry skin, and her skin looked AMAZING. Its amazing what a bit of pure aloe can do for your face. I recommend this from the Made from Earth product line. The Made from Earth Pure Aloe Skin Treatment is GREAT for dry and/or sensitive skin.

It was rough, but thankfully our prayers were answered as we found Vidazorb kids chewable probiotic and he not only loves it....it has helped him so much! He looks, feels and acts like a totally different child. It has been a great relief for him, and for our whole family. I am really praying that since we got such a good handle on it with these, that maybe we stopped any development that may have occurred for Asthma. Thanks for the info!
