I am not aware of any natural cure than gets rid of asthma.  If there were a natural cure that works and was safe, I think doctors across the nation would be prescribing this for their patients, and it would be all over the news. You might read about gimmics in books or hear about them on TV shows and radio, but as far as I'm aware there is no natural cure for asthma.

 

Asthma is a disease that scientists have made leaping strides in working to find a cure (recently they even found the asthma gene), so it is always my hope that some day a cure will be found.  Yet, as of yet, there is no cure.

 

However, doctors now have access to some wonderful new asthma wisdom (that you can read about on our site) and wonderful new asthma medicines that work to prevent asthma so you don't have trouble breathing.  Thus, if you are on asthma medicines at this time, I highly recommend you do not substitute a "natural remedy" for your usual asthma medicines without at the very least consulting with your asthma physician first.
