Omega 3 fatty acids: If you have food allergies avoiding those foods is critical to avoiding acute asthma attacks as well as hives & anaphylaxis. 1-2% of my patients find that avoiding dairy helps. There is increasing scientific data that omega-3 fatty acids (in fish, flaxseed & borage oil), vitamin d & quercetin supplements are useful. Vitamin e and c do not appear to help.

Fish: Supplementing with fish oil has been shown to be helpful for people with asthma. Other than that it is important to eat a balanced diet with lots of green leafy vegatables. Ensure that you are getting vitamin d in your diet.
