What are the dietary guidelines for asthmatics?

Jul 16 2021

Asthma is characterized by the contraction of smooth muscle in smaller units of the lungs called bronchioles, which partially abstract can cause extreme difficulty in breathing.

In asthmatics, triggers range from pollen, dust and polluted air to specific foods, heavy meals and emotional factors.

Ayurveda considers the trigger can be simple indigestion as well. Light and warm meals are always advised for asthmatics.

Soft spices are suggested in moderation. Add cumin, turmeric and black pepper to food if you are accustomed to such spices.

Asafoetida, dry ginger, long pepper, garlic and onion must be a part of your diet.

All sweeteners, except jaggery, are to be avoided.

Milk products have to be consumed warm, so mixed combinations of cheese, cream and others are not advisable. Goat’s milk or camel milk are preferred options.

The nature and quantity of food can have a direct impact on the condition. So eat just enough to sate your hunger.

Have boiled warm water with every meal. Stay away from oily, fried, frozen and cold foods.
