Natural Remedies to Cure or Treat Asthma

COUGHS, ACID REFLUX AND ASTHMA: THE LINK
11/9/2006: Jeisea from Byron Bay, Australia writes, "Someone on here asked about cough and reflux. My son had a chronic cough and was treated for asthma. He was in the worst category for asthma. He never had a wheeze. He just had a chronic cough. When he was finally diagnosed with reflux, he had developed Barrett's Oesophagous, a pre cancerous condition. Reflux causes asthma. The meds for asthma cause reflux. You see his problem. He had a laproscopic fundoplication operation which completely stopped reflux. He hasn't had asthma at all since. If you are coughing it could mean your reflux isn't under control. Chronic reflux isn't safe."

The Elimination of Dairy Products
3 Readers confirm that eliminating dairy from the diet alleviates asthma attacks.

10/26/2006: Jessica from Chicago writes, "I am a severe asthmatic with sinusitis. I'm not sure if asthmatics are allergic to dairy or if people who are allergic to dairy become asthmatics, but either way, there is a strong connection. Dairy not only effects my asthma, but my sinuses and allergies, as well."

H.M. from Phoenix, AZ writes, "I've been on a dairy-free diet for less than a week and my breathing is much deeper than ever! As well, my allergies are dissipating. I was hospitalized for asthma earlier this year, and wondered if I was ever going to get my symptoms under control. I cannot adequately express how much better I feel. I'm also going to add ACV to my breakfast and dinner -- I feel that it will also help."

Dawn, from Dradenton agrees, "My 2 yr old has asthma and frequently has bronchitis. Stopping dairy in his diet is the only thing that has worked for us. We tried all of the medicines the doctors would give it would only make him better for a short while and sick more frequently."

The Elimination of Wheat Products
11/29/2005: Adrienne, from Regina, SK writes, "I started developing asthma about a year and half ago... I couldn't even walk a block without wheezing. On the advice of my mother, I stopped eating all wheat products and have had no trouble breathing ever since."

Eliminate Preservatives from Your Food
9/1/2006: Nadine from NY writes, "I forgot to mention preservatives also makes it hard to breath, so get rid of the preservatives in your foods when you have asthma... Get rid of the preservatives and white flour, store bought bread, boxed food and most canned foods."

NEW! POTENTIAL CURE FOR ASTHMA ATTACKS: OIL PULLING
11/6/2006: Shakti from Chicago, IL writes, "Please post this where asthma sufferers can view it, this is important because I had a hard time finding a cure for asthma on your site but thank God I did. I began a regimen of oil pulling shortly after a lingering cold went to my lungs, I just couldn't get rid of the mucus. I prayed for relief. It got even worse after a chemical pesticide was sprayed in my home for pest control. The next day after the extermination I had the worst attack of my life, I couldn't stand it anymore, so after 10 years of not having to put any poison into my lungs I had to once again use an inhaler to control the attacks. After the second night of waking up feeling side effects of nervousness anxiety and panic I decided enough was enough. I went to the computer in the middle of the night and began hours of research to find a natural cure. That's how I found this miracle of a web site. The next day I went out a purchased some sesame oil and took one table spoon 3x a day at the onset of my asthma attack and Immediately after the very first dose the mucus expelled out of my longs, and within 10 minutes what had plagued me for over 10 years was no more. Since then If I have any tightening in my chest or shortness of breath I IMMEDIATELY do the oil pulling and the problem subsides in 10 minutes or less. ~~~Oh I'd be remiss if I did not mention the side effect, I took oil pulling for Bronchial Asthma but as a result I got a dazzling white smile, sinus relief, not to mention it remarkably helped to subside my symptoms PMS all unexpected but welcomed side effects. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! P.S. thanks my husband thanks you too, lol."

Asthma Cure #1: Vitamin B-12

3 Yea, 1 Nay

Kyriacos from Nicosia, Cyprus emailed: "Since you have done me a good turn by introducing me to ‘apple cider vinegar’, which has totally revived a very ailing health ravaged by cholesterol over the last couple of years, I would like to return the favour, which I hope may benefit others logging unto your site.

Vitamin B12
I have totally overcome asthma that I was told was incurable.

It came about within only six months after including in my vitamin regime a small and very cheap vitamin called; B12 (dosage 5ìg daily). I only eat meat once in a while, so I read that a diet short on meat consumption should consider taking a B12 vitamin supplement, which is why I began to include it, in my vitamin regime.

But I am not a medical expert and medical authorities and asthma foundations have both failed to follow up on my claims, so I do not know if B12 is an outright cure for asthma. And about the same time that I began supplementing with vitamin B12 I also made amendments to the location of my accommodation. I moved from life by the sea to deeper inland and city life. And chose to live in an old style house, where the bathroom is separate from living room/bedroom, which implies both have doors leading to outside of the house. It implies that you have to go outside the house of one part to get into the other.

In modern terms that may not be an appealing prospect, but there are real benefits in living in old Cypriot style, house. In summer it is cool and in winter it retains the heat. But the major advantage is that with the bathroom completely separate from living room/bedroom it implies that you get no humidity filling up the rest of the house after bathing. And the combination of moving away from humidity filled environment (by the sea) and house where the bathroom was in the house allowing humidity to freely fill other rooms of the house, may have played a determinant role in wiping out, my asthma. But I do not know which one was responsible for releasing me from this horrendous disease; whether it was the combination of moving away from the sea and choosing to live in an old house, where the bathroom is not a part of the rest of the house, or whether it was B12 vitamin inclusion, or a combination of all those. As I said I am not an expert so I cannot be sure which one of those combinations is a cure for asthma. And medical authorities and asthma foundations don’t want to know.

It is also relevant to know that I got a little acquainted with the disease, by reading what foods and beverages to also avoid. So I did things right generally, but the disease was only completely wiped out soon after I began including B12 in my vitamin regime and made the accommodation adjustments, aforementioned.

It has to also be noted that while I had asthma for many years it never reached a critical stage. And my own phasing out of asthma inhalers was gradual. And never did I suppress from using the inhalers, whenever there was an inevitable need for those. So while I no longer have any symptoms of asthma whatsoever and no need for use of inhalers, this was a stage I had reached gradually, by doing all the right things generally.

It more notably implies that the vitamin B12 regime and amendments to life style suggested here for dealing with asthma do not at any time become alternatives to the medication individuals at a critical stage of asthma are more greatly reliant on.

And please do not follow on any tips I give here on this site from my own vitamin regime experiences, without first consulting a competent practitioner (doctor or nutritionist).

2/10/2006: Kevin from NY, NY writes, "For the past 2 years I have been going to an allergist and a pulmonary specialist. Neither has been able to cure my asthma which was getting progressively worse. All either doctor would do was continue to prescribe medication and keep upping the dosage. I then spoke to a holistic nutrtitionist and she told me to stop eating dairy and to take vitamin B12, Magnesium and a liver cleansing supplement. Within 2 weeks my symptoms began to subside and stopped my prescribed medications. I now feel better than I have in the past 2 years. I am still not 100% but I feel myself getting everyday. I can't say this will work for everyone but for some who prescribed medicine doesn't work I think it is worth a try. It worked for me."

8/4/2006: Kerrin from Denver, CO writes, "One year ago, I had a bout of the most severe asthma I have had in years. After a trip to the ER and several hundred $$$ in meds over 4 months, I was determined to find natural substitutes for them. I found Vitamin B12 here. I bought a 1000 mcg. sublingual tablet (with 400 of Folic acid) that I began taking every night at bedtime, and can report an amazing decrease in all asthma symptoms over the last year. I have even taken one at the onset of labored breathing and had the attack subside within 20 minutes!!! I am now totally drug free and so grateful to all who wrote about B12. It is a miracle. Also, in the process of the above, I began an anti-allergy regimen of 2 g of Pantothenic Acid, 2 g of Vitamin C, and a Quercetin capsule in divided dose 2x a day. Goodbye to antihistimines! 1 mg. of Vit. C alone has stopped an allergy attack for me as well as other family members. Hope others can find the relief I have!"

NAY
5/282006: Brian from Newark, OH writes, "I feel that it's good to give both sides -- I can say that what works for one person is NOT necessarily apropriate for another. One user indicated that taking vitamin B-12 helped his asthma -- it didn't mine. I take 1 Vitamin B-12 lozenge sub-lingually daily. The dosage is 5000mcg (about 83,000% the RDA). I also take a B-12 + B-Complex vitamin daily, along with the mulit-vitamin - it raises my B-12 intake to about 100,000% of the recommended daily allowance. What has this done for my asthma? Squat!!! (Although, I'm more mentally alert, and I have more energy)."

Asthma Cure #2: Apple Cider Vinegar

11 Readers have reported a cure to asthma attacks using Apple Cider Vinegar.

11/3/2006: DeeDee from Laguna writes, "I had tried getting off advair and albuterol w/minimal success. Tried a lot "natural" remedies w/o prolonged sucess. I tried acv last week, and haven't had to use advair (a steriod) since. I have had to use my inhaler about once a day so far but not yet today....hopefully I can wean off that too."

10/10/2006:Faye from Roseburg, OR writes, "One tablespoon diluted in water after each meal and at bedtime. Started sleeping thru the night without awakening - from the very first night. However, it made my bowels "overactive", so I cut down the dose. Had recurrent reflux, so gradually increased the dose to the initial level, this time with the bowels cooperating. I have been taking it for 3 1/2 months now and it's nearly perfect. I have only had breakthru reflux if I eat way too much starchy food at dinnertime. An extra 1 T dose fixes that if it occurs I can even eat out at Mexican restaurants and have big helpings, and still do ok. And it's really cheap (especially compared to Prilosec)!!!!! It seems to reduce the pressure in the gut so there is less pressure at the esophageal gastric junction. I don't suppose this will work for everyone. There may be more than one mechanism for reflux. Of course the sphincter is looser as we get older, but increased gut pressure from less efficient digestion may be part of the cause, too. By the way, my asthma is completely gone, too!""

8/3/2006: Robert from Clarkston, MI writes, "I HAVE BEEN USING THE APPLE CIDER VINEGER AND HONEY TREATMENT FOR 3 DAYS NOW AND LAST NIGHT WAS THE FIRST TIME, DURING MY MARTIAL ARTS CLASS, THAT I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE CLASS WITHOUT USING TAN INHALER. THE INHALER DIDN'T ALWAYS WORK. MY LUNGS DIDN'T BECOME RESTRICTED WHILE BREATHING HEAVY AND I WAS ABLE TO TAKE NORMAL BREATHS WHILE RUNNING. I AM AMAZED AT THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THIS NATURAL CURE AND HAVE ALREADY PASSED IT ON TO FAMILY AND FRIENDS. IT IS WORKING GREAT, FOR ME, SO FAR AND I WILL CONTINUE TO TAKE IT AND I WILL NOT BE USING MY INHALER ANYMORE."

6/2/2006: Jean from Upper Marlboro, MD writes, "I am taking ACV for asthma & sinus problems. Also using it for weight lost, just found that out today. I was glad to try an over-the -counter remedy for my ailments. I hate using prescribed medicine because they don't resolve the problem, instead it just makes it worse. I have being health conscious since I was 16, and surprised when my doctor told me I had developed asthma; which he stated was triggered by my allergies. Before I found your site I had been using a vitamin NAC, Quercetin, fish oil, etc., to keep my asthma at bay; but I had two asthma attacks in April, when everything started blooming. I didn't want to take steroids, so I went on the internet and found your site, since I wanted to do it naturally and not by a prescription. I am very happy to say that ACV has worked for me. I take two TBSP a day straight up, it has also helped with my sinus problem, and allergies. I love it, and just to think I had the cure for my asthma in my cupboard all that time and didn't know it. I'm also going to try the other remedies for losing weight. Will let you know how it turns out."

5/23/2006: Katherine from Las Vegas writes, "2 tbsp. apple cider vinegar in a glass of water cured tightness in my chest and throat due to asthma. When visiting my boyfriend in Connecticut, I had an asthma attack and didn't have my inhaler. After I regained my breath I drank this mixture and almost instantaneously the tightness in my chest and throat relaxed and the wheezing, uncomfortable breathing stopped."

Kellen, from Bridgewater, NJ writes, "I suffer of terrible asthma attacks since I have 3 pets that I love. I started taking 2 tbsp of ACV every night a week ago and have not used my inhalor since it. And I am feeling great!"

Satie, from Charlotte, NC writes, "I stopped using an inhaler and singulair tablets for asthma as soon as I took 2 tbsp ACV. Then I took 1 tsp 2 times after 3 days. It still is helping after 2 weeks. No more shortness of breath and sinus problems."

Sue from Mckinney, TX writes, "I was using two separate types of inhalers a day & heard that 1 tblsp. honey & 1 tblsp. vinegar was good for sore throat. I started taking 4 times a day in 6 oz. of water & guess what? No inhaler & no asthma since. I use Texas honey and organic vinegar. No more steriods or medication!"

8/16/2005: Jane from OH writes, "I started using acv. It has helped me with my asthma, started using tabs will see if it works as good, haven't used my advair or inhaler in week and half."

11/17/2005: Frank from Summerfield FL writes, "I have had asthma for 28 years adult onset at 42 yrs old I have been on aerobid and singular plus albuterol I have had to use albuterol from 2 to 4 times a day depending on weather, exercise, etc. I have tried all types of remedies and nothing seemed to help. I do cardio work and other exercise to maintain good overall health and I believe that keeps my asthma from becoming worse. My brother then recommended 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and honey which I take every morning before breakfast, after a week I noticed I was not closing up during exercise and using my albuterol less after several weeks I was not using my albuterol at all and I stopped taking the singular. I have been taking the vinegar for 3 months, and I am now down to 2 puffs of aerobid (inhaled steroid) once a day, I have no breathing problems at night or when I do cardio or exercise workouts. I will cutting out the aerobid this week as a trial peroid and give a comment in about a month on how it is going, I highly recommend it for people with asthma it may be the ticket to getting off medication."

2/3/2006: Donna from Cherokee, NC writes, "Hi; I have just talked with Delena my daughter who has asthma, and she told me that she always wake up stuffy and wheezy and she said she started Sunday and her first dose gave her heartburn but she was ok after that but she stated to me that she doesn't wake up stuffy and wheezy anymore. She is convinced on this and is talking to her husband's parents about the AVC."

3/13/2006: Beverly from McKinney Texas writes, "It greatly improved my husband and my sinus problems. Plus it has also improved my asthma. I think it also dissolve my husbands kidney stones to a size he could pass without experienceing great pain."

Asthma Cure #3: Mullein Extract
1 Reader has reported a cure to her asthma attacks using Mullein Extract.

Kelly, from Chicago, IL writes, "I have used mullein extract in the past and it has stopped my wheezing almost instantly."

Asthma Cure #4: Lemon

Justin, from Cottonwood, AZ tells us, "This was told to me by a Medicine Man from the Hopi tribe, Take a lemon and slice it into quarters, inhale the smell of the lemon a couple of times, then if you can stand it eat some of the lemon, rind and all, (it's not bad). Then drink a glass of water. Something in lemons and the rind greatly reduces symptoms of asthma."

Cure # 5: Cold Shower Therapy:

2 Readers report an Asthma Cure

Tim, from NSW Kitchener, Australia writes, "I decided to finish every normal 'hot shower' with a blast of totally cold water, after reading a book by an old healer by the name of Jethro Kloss. Anyway, I am a bad asthmatic, and used to get sick around 6 times per year. When I got sick it really affected my chest, with huge amounts of mucous, and real bad asthma.

Now I rarely get sick (it boosts the immune system as well as circulation), and if I do it's usually just a mildly sore throat. I wish I could better explain the massive difference this has made. Even if you feel sickness coming on, a cold shower will often stop it in its tracks."

Lisa, from London, England writes, "I ran into this page by accident, while looking up treatments to help my chronic asthma. I gave it a try and felt amazingly envigorated and my asthma seemed to improve almost immediately as I was having a bad breathing day. Also my skin feels great. I will continue and let u know how it goes."

Cure # 7: COFFEE

5 Readers Report Success!

10/14/2006: K from Antigua writes, "My husband was given a strong dose of coffee when he was young and since then he has never had a problem with asthma. He has sinusitis so we're trying honey and acv and oil pulling and im using acv for my eczema and excessive sweating(since i had the last baby). i will update in a month."

5/12/2005: Stephanie from Norfolk, VA writes, "I've had asthma for about 6 years now and I've found that a cup of coffee help attacks."

10/16/2005: Tiffany from Weymouth MA writes, "If you have asthma and you do not have your inhaler with u drink a hot cup of black coffee to stop an asthma attack."

4/23/2006: Tamara from NYC writes, "i infrequently get asthma attacks usually cold weather or allergens set it off- sometimes stress or pet hair. I forgot my inhaler and i got a very scary attack on a warm day in april that was full of pollen. I was in a van travelling to work and couldn't catch my breath for quite awhile- when i arrived i had two cups of black coffee (i usually put milk or soy milk in my coffee) and i think it helped. However in the future i will try mullein tea or another type of herbal remedyas i dislike relying on the albuterol."

5/28/2006: Brian from Newark, OH writes, "If I am out, and have forgotten my albuterol inhaler, and I'm having difficulty breathing -- I head to starbucks, caribou, or wherever else I can go for an espresso or a giant cup of coffee. The caffeine acts as an anti-inflamatory agent -- it helps to reduce air-way swelling. While it's NEVER a good idea to leave without your medication -- it's always a good idea to have an alternate, just in case (and hey, who doesn't want an excuse to splurge for capuccino or espresso every once in a while)!"

Cure # 8: STEAMING
4/6/2005: Olivia writes, "I have this steam inhaler and when ever I get weazy, it really helps my lungs and wind pipes open up! It doesn't cure but it helps and makes it more comfortable!"

Cure #9: YOGA
8/11/2006: Nikki from London writes, "I suggest that people with asthma should do excercises by a man called Swami Ramdev Ji... You can visit a website with breathing excercises which really are useful. You should do the excercises daily in the morning before having breakfast or any food. The website: knowyoga.org/tiki-index.php?page=Pranayama

BUT REMEMBER: DO NOT PUSH YOURSELF TO DO THESE EXCERCISES ANY MORE THAN YOU CAN HANDLE, START OFF SLOWLY!! IF YOU CAN NOT DO AN EXCERCISE THEN LEAVE IT AN MOVE ONTO SOMETHING ELSE YOU CAN DO."

Cure #10: GREEN TEA
Nadine from NY writes, "i drink green tea for my asthma. i found this out by accident. a friend of mine gave me some spaghetti sauce and i had a reaction to it. my throat started to close up pn me and i was already having trouble breathing from my asthma and i didnt have my inhaler prescription filled. well i had some green tea made up that i was trying for the first time because everyone was saying green tea is good for you so i thought i'd try it. well i drank the tea and went into the other room to sit and try to breath and relax. i was in there a little while when i realized i was breathing well better than i had before i ate the spaghetti sauce so i was a science major at the time in college so i thought i'll just experiment and see if this is real so i went back out and ate some more spaghetti sauce. immediately my throat started to close up on me i drank some more tea and in a very short time i could breathe and my throat no longer closed up on me. ive been drinking the green tea for my asthma ever since. it works faster than provental for me and i very rarely ever use an inhaler. my doctor asked me what i was using to treat my asthma as i hadn't gotten prevental in a year and i told him green tea. you can imagine the reaction i got! LOL. well he said maybe all the water youve been drinking cut it for you. lol. i drink it every day for my asthma, especially if i'm having a hard time breathing. it won't cure your asthma but it will help."

Buteyko Breathing Method
10/16/2006: Alan from Rockville, MD writes, "Asthma: Significant Reduction in dependence on Albuterol inhaler. I have very serious steroid dependent asthma. Patrick Mckeown has written two books Asthma Free Naturally and Close Your Mouth which feature the Buteyko Method for breathing. Simple technique of breathing in and out of your nose, and exercises called the control pause response--2 seconds breathe in through nose, 3 seconds breathe out through nose, pinch your nostrils and hold your breath. By how long you can hold your breath, this will tell you how well you are breathing. Try this method. You will breathe better, catch fewer colds and infections."

SUPPLEMENTS TO HELP ASTHMA

Liquid Calcium
Jay, from NYC, NY writes, "There is a collodial formula known as Liquid Coral Calcium that when taken,will instantly stop and get rid of Asthma, Chronic Bronchitis(Which is what I suffered from) and any respitory ailment you can think of. All you need is an ounce a day for it to be effective and it helped me and many others."

Quercetin
1/19/2006: Paul, from Morrisville, PA writes, "I have used a quercetin with bromelain supplement to eliminate my daily use of inhalers and singulair in order to breathe. One needs to take very high doses of quercetin when initially weaning themself off the medications (it's almost impossible to take too much quercetin - it's extremely non-toxic and safe). After a few weeks, a lower - and much more affordable - maintenance dose can be taken each day with no side effects or worries. This is not a true cure, but it is one natural way to manage asthma. A good holistic doc may help with finding a cure depending on the particular cause for each individual - whether it be a yeast problem, allergies, adrenal problem, Wilson's syndrome, etc..."

Earth Clinic Note: Quercetin belongs to a class of water-soluble plant pigments called flavonoids. Quercetin acts as an antihistamine and has anti-inflammatory properties. Quercetin can be found in onions, apples, green tea, and black tea. Smaller amounts are found in leafy green vegetables and beans.

Ephedra
Deborah from San Francisco, CA writes, "I have been taking Ephedra for 8 months now and find it the best remedy so far. I am considered a servere chronic asthmatic and have only had to use the inhaler about two times a week now. The secret is to only use the amount you need and not more. I feel it has been made illegal in the United States because if more people used this herb which has been used in Chinese herbs for 2000 years, the pharmaceutical companies would lose a lot of business. Peace and love and prayers every day for all asthmatics."

Fish Oil
Shirley from Michigan writes, "I take 2 tablespoons daily of a pure fish oil and my asthma stays away. Fish oil reduces inflammation."

Vitamin C
4/24/2006: Jazlyn from Raleigh, NC writes, "I've been taking C-1000's in large doses everyday for about 4 months and I used to have to use my inhaler every single day and now I never need to use it. If you take about 5000mg-10,000mg a day for a week or two it should start to help alot, then you can drop down to 3000mg a day."

5/28/2006: Brian from Newark, OH writes, "I take 500mg vitamin c (plus a multi-vitamin) daily -- it helps with the inflammation in my body. My ankle feels better (I have a fractured talus, with avascular necrosis) but it also helps with my breathing. NOTHING is going to CURE my asthma -- I'm not that naive -- but, some things help make it less an issue for me . . . vitamin C is one of those things."

CAYENNE PEPPER
5/6/2006: Jack from Toledo, Ohio writes, "TAKE 2, 8OZ GLASSES, FILL ONE WITH COOL TO COLD WATER THE OTHER WITH NO MORE WARM TO HOT WATER YOU CAN SWALLOW IN ONE GULP, IN THE HOT WATER, PUT 1/8 TO 1/4 LEVEL TEASPOON OF "CAYENNE POWDERED RED PEPPER", MIX VERY WELL, THEN PICK UP BOTH GLASSES, DOWN THE HOT WATER AND RED PEPPER IN ONE GULP "QUICKLY". AS SOON AS YOU'VE DONE THAT, PUT THE COLD WATER INTO YOUR MOUTH AND RINSE VIGOROUSLY AND SWALLOW, REPEAT THE RINSE WITH COLD WATER UNTIL YOUR MOUTH IS WARM TO HOT, QUIT RINSING, FILL YOUR LUNGS WITH ALL THE AIR THEY CAN HOLD, AND HOLD YOUR BREATH FOR AS LONG AS YOU CAN, THEN LET THE AIR "SLOWLY OUT YOUR "NOSE" REPEAT THE BREATHING EXERCIZE 4 TO 5 TIMES, BY THE FIFTH TIME YOUR PAIN WILL BE GONE!! IF YR EUSTACIAN TUBES ARE PLUGGED UP THEY WILL OPEN IN A FEW MINUTES, AND YOU'LL FEEL YOUR SINUSES DRAINING DOWN YR THROAT, YOU'LL NEED TO BLOW YR NOSE BECAUSE THIS WILL DRAIN YOUR SINUSES. THIS WILL ALSO GIVE UP TO 32 HOURS OF ASTHMA RELIEF AS WELL AS CLEANS YOUR BLOOD OF IMPURITIES WHILE YOU SLEEP."

READER QUESTION: WHITE VINEGAR & BAKING SODA
11/5/2006: Clyde from Pittsburgh, PA writes, "I am breathing in the hydrogen peroxide... it relieves me of my asthma. i'm a mild asthmatic. i would like to know if you can mix white vinegar with baking soda? i know it is good as a drain opener, but i also heard that it was good in the bath water. can someone help me on this? thanks, clyde."

Ted replies, "Using weak H2O2 inhalation for your asthmatic and you want to also use white vinegar and baking soda? Well, this is a weaker form, and might help, but not much. However, I think for a sea salt solution for inhalation or with some H2O2 added would be the way to go. For some reason, sea salt inhalation is much prefer to clearing the breathing passages. It is a more natural approach. One major reason why sea salt works so well is due to the fulvic acid (trace micromineral) in the sea salt, which is often gray or light brown in color. I have been cured with asthma condition just taking fulvic acid, so I would assume adding sea salt with this trace content would help. In fact sea salt inhalation is one of the old home remedies that seem to work well in some cases to.

Also using white vinegar alone is also one way to do it too. However adding baking soda in my opinion might weaken the solution. Ted"
