Do you suffer from any kind of breathing problem or asthma,COPD..every year the figure of people suffering from this type of illness, allergy and general discomfort escalates and it is thought that by 2025, there will be more than 100 million people throughout the world suffering from this type of problem. So, why is it on the increase, the main suspected culprit it is the ambience around us, and more so determined substances found in this space…. but there are other  circumstances related to this kind of illness. 

Experts do say that over weight can be a problem and do bring certain concerns which come with  risk to breathing problems, it is known that when weight is lost in many cases the symptoms improve, when people are over weight the body will give out a substance,” adipocinas “, which will affect the lung, which will favor the development of asthma, so it is always recommended that any one who suffers from this type of problem, should try to keep within a healthy weight range. A mediterranean diet is high recommended as this will give a certain protection against asthma and allergies in general, one of the reasons being the high content of Vitamin E and magnesium found in this type of diet, 

It is a proven fact that , pollution, cigarette smoke and certain chemical agents do favour the start of asthma and can make existing asthma worse. It has also been proven that living within a city can increase the risk of asthma and allergies. However a rural life does not exclude us from asthma, as certain farms and farm land use toxins and contaminants that can create episodes of asthma. So, what can we do, we can try to work in the best healthy atmosphere possible, and don’t forget to protect your home, dust, damp certain animal hair can increase the possibilities of asthma, it is also recommended to take a few days in the country when ever possible, in the city try to keep your home windows closed at night, car windows up when driving and put filters on your AC units in the car and home, it is also thought that alcohol in moderation, no more than six units a week, can help. 

Asthma is not, just a child thing ? Many people start to suffer from this later in life, something will trigger it of, particularly in urban areas…another reason seems to be via personal hygiene, as we are so protected as children, are immune system is not prepared to handle certain toxins  and bacteria….

Hope this chart helps with special periods when we could be more prone to asthma attacks or allergies.
