Asthma is a disease that is very prevalent in India but people do not know much about it, nor is there much awareness about this disease in the society. Asthma is a disease that affects our breathing in a bad way. Its effects on the heart and lungs can be fatal. Asthma patients should always carry their tablets and inhaler with them. Because these are the things that can solve their problems and bring them back to normal. Today we are going to tell you some special things about this disease, which not only asthma patients but also other people should know. Like what should asthma patients eat, what to do to reduce this problem and lead a healthy life? Let's find out all these things! What is asthma?

Asthma is mainly of two types. They are called Nonallergic Asthma and Occupational Asthma. Asthma patients are most affected by pollution, smoke and winter season and cold places. So asthma patients should generally avoid going to such places. In such a place, they develop breathing problems and this is very likely to increase the prevalence of asthma in the body. So asthma patients should always remember this. Honey should be used

Everyone loves to eat honey. Asthma patients should consume this honey. Because eating honey does not cause throat infection. Also, honey does not allow any type of virus or bacteria to grow in the respiratory tract. This reduces the risk of asthma attack. Eating cinnamon powder mixed with honey relieves problems like cough and phlegm. Honey also acts as an antibacterial medicine. It does not allow accumulation of phlegm in the lungs, so this mixture must be consumed daily during cold days and as needed during the rest of the day. Use vitamin 'C'

Vitamin 'C' is rich in antioxidants. It plays an important role in protecting against respiratory infections. This is the reason why asthma patients are advised to eat a diet rich in Vitamin C. Eating fruits and foods rich in vitamin C reduces the incidence of asthma attacks. Apart from this, eating these foods also increases immunity and prevents respiratory infections. Use home remedies

Consuming home remedies like basil leaves, black pepper, turmeric, cloves and cardamom are very beneficial for asthma patients. Asthma patients should consume turmeric in milk and tea with cardamom, tulsi leaves and cloves. This also increases immunity. All these substances not only keep your respiratory tract clean but also help keep it infection free. People who consume these foods in the right amount have also been shown to experience a significant reduction in asthma. Consume pulses according to season

Asthma patients should generally avoid things and foods that cause cold in the body. They should eat foods that generate maximum heat in the body. Because cold things help to increase infections in the throat and respiratory tract. But eating hot food stops the infection without aggravating it. Asthma patients must consume mung lentil mix dal during summer. But if you are eating only lentil dal then it should be eaten only in winter. Because lentil pulses contain a lot of heat and are nutritious for the body. (Satish Patki)
