Don't smoke.: Asthma can be triggered by many things, but smoke and strong chemical irritants are things you can avoid. Respiratory infections and allergic reactions to pollens, animal dander, and dust mite are common triggers. If you already have asthma, taking controller meds such as inhaled steroids or pills called leukotriene inhibitors can keep you symptoms at bay if taken on a regular basis.

Lifestyle change: Avoid all milk products since the milk protein causes respiratory tract inflammation. Also avoid grains, lentils. Consume veggies, flesh foods, olive oil. Getting 30 -45 min of sunshine at noon daily or taking vitamin D3 10,000 IU/day and taking a good probiotic (not yogurt) help reduce inflammation Yoga breathing exercises 10-30 min/day help too. This may help avoid the need for meds
