Asthma affects over 17 milling people in the United States. Asthma is a lung disorder in which spasms and inflammation of the bronchial passages restrict the flow of air in and out of the lungs.

The symptoms are generally characterized by sudden fits of wheezing, coughing and shortness of breath.

This very common chronic disease involves the respiratory system in which the airways constrict, become inflamed and are lined with excessive amounts of mucus, often in response to one or more triggers.

Asthma is worse when your body is lacking in nutrients, from a poor and unhealthy diet. A few supplements may help asthma prevention and treatment.

Vitamin C is the most important supplement for natural treatment of asthma because C is the primary antioxidant in the lungs. It enhances immune response and reduces the severity of allergic responses.

Speaking of antioxidants, this natural substance should be the second on your list because antioxidants are vital to reduce inflammation.

The third ingredient on your list should be magnesium. Studies have showed that asthmatics generally have low levels of this essential mineral. Between 400 to 800 mg of magnesium are needed to relax the bronchial tubes and smooth the muscle of the esophagus.

The symptoms of asthma may range from mild to life threatening. It can usually be controlled with a combination of a balanced diet, supplements and environmental changes.
