Does running really help diminish asthma? I want to get rid of most the minor symptoms I get in a few months by running every day, can I do it?

I seem to need either the Advair Diskus, Albuterol Inhaler, or Nebulizer with Albuterol Sulfate or a combination of them on a daily basis. I was wondering if there are certain types of things to do or foods to eat or anything else that can help prevent or treat asthma so that way I can maybe cut back on the medicine a little.

O.o asked:


It’s just a question I have been wondering about. Because there are many that do not think asthma can be caused by smoking or secondhand smoke. But there are just as many that do think it could cause asthma. What is the truth?

What types/breeds of dogs or cats would be the best option for someone with allergies and asthma?

AspenWhite asked:


I am currently looking to see if there are any options out there for an allergy and asthma sufferer to own a pet relatively symptom-free. What breeds/types of cats or dogs are the best choice/least problematic?

Now that my boyfriend (the one with allergies/asthma) and I are finished with college, we are hoping to find a breed of cat or dog that we can have that won’t cause problems for him. Any ideas?

Do you have to drink coffee black in order to help with asthma?

Jenna asked:


I heard it helps with the onset of an asthma attack, but I usually like cream in it. Also, does decaf work as well? Are there any good home remedies for an asthma attack? I’ve been getting it only when I go to bed since my trip from another state. Thanks!
In reference to the question: would it work just as well if I were to put cream in it?

What will happen if someone without asthma uses a Ventolin inhaler? Just wondering because I sometimes use my emergency inhaler before gym class, just to prevent attacks. Is that even the same as someone without asthma?
Thanks
