In a recent episode of Radyo Agila’s “Basta Natural”, the doctors tackled the “basics of basics” of Asthma. To understand its roots, we need to know its nature.
Respiratory diseases are always troublesome, and asthma is no exception. The reason why asthma occurs is not clear, but it is generally believed that it is a combination of genetic and environmental factors such as changing seasons and temperatures and allergens.
The underlying problems behind most asthma attacks are the inflammation of the bronchial tube and the effects of allergens. Once triggered, the airways start to constrict and swell leading to bronchial inflammation.
There is also the production of excess mucus, and the combination of these three gives the narrowed airways resulting in an obstructed airflow and difficulty of breathing. Symptoms may vary from mild to severe. These include shortness of breath with coughing and chest pains due to difficulty of breathing.
The doctors did not miss to give the importance of healthy lungs & heart for healthy oxygen flow. The correlation between the two organs was highlighted as well and as for one’s diet, according to Doctor Viloria, the asthma sufferer should avoid dairy products for it increases the body’s production of mucus. Instead, stuff your diet with fruits and vegetables.
The light, easy conversation but full of health information was also nostalgic as they talked about the traditional ways how our mothers used to treat asthma by rubbing the back with liniment, using its heat as a remedy. The talk bonus health tips about the power of garlic, onions, and ginger on how it can help the body recover because of its natural antibacterial properties, that is why “lugaw” is truly essential especially for the kids feeling under the weather.
The guest speaker Doctor Sonny Viloria also mentioned the value of Organique Acai Berry which can also be used as a remedy, since this fruit has anti-inflammatory properties. It is considered to be a natural remedy for asthma. Its ability to treat asthma can be largely attributed to its high Vitamin C content. Vitamin C helps boost the immune system, which is very important especially if asthma is caused by an allergen. Vitamin C also has antioxidant properties, so it helps remove free radicals that may damage the lungs and make them vulnerable to asthmatic attacks.
“Acai is rich in Omega 3, 6, 9, vitamins C and anthocyanin – three important components helpful to strengthen our immune system. Organique Acai Berry has been in the business for more than a decade and has already solidified its value in the market.” Added by Dr. Sonny Viloria.
