i just found out (yes i know i probably should have figured out before) that athsma attacks can be fatal. is it just people with a certain type of asthma or can someone like me with anxiety and excersise induced asthma who only has about two to three attacks a month have a fatal attack?
what is an unconotrolled asthmatic?
I take albuterol when i have an attack should i be taking more?

Is your asthma inhaler buried at the bottom of your medicine cabinet? That could put you at jeopardy, say Canadian researchers, who are reporting today in the New England Journal of Medicine that using an asthma inhaler could reduce your chances of dying of an asthma attack.

But despite these important findings, asthma experts say many doctors and patients are still reluctant to use inhalers faithfully.

asthma is a form of auto-immune desease that is – the body’s defense mechanism is not recognizing the part it’s attacking! Albuterol may address the symptoms of asthma (difficulty of breathing due to swollen alveoli) but not the root cause (poor cellular communication). In effect, you use the drug repeatedly until you get the undesirable side effects!

I suggest you go natural by taking natural sources of polysaccharides for your cellular glyconutrution. If you want to learn more, you can contact me at +63 49.536.3066 or at +63 919.818.88788.

Hope this could help!

A co-worker said that her daughter’s asthma improved since she switched from decaffeinated beverages to ones with caffeine. Has anyone else heard of this? Has anyone else found this to be true?

Caffeine is a natural bronchial muscle relaxer. So it enlarges your airways. And makes it easier to breath.
