Get meds: The incidence of sudden death in asthma patients has not changed much in several decades in spite of progress in medications & delivery systems. If you ignore this disease & its risks, you are really on your own.There are no effective diets/exercises or supplements to cure or stop it. Be sure your life is in order & have someone designated as your medical power of attorney. You may need them soon.
