Reduce and avoid: Avoiding asthma triggers (not always possible) and treating the underlying inflammation present (with inhaled steroids) are the main ways to avoid an attack. Keeping your house dust free, getting your allergies treated, etc may all be part of your individualized asthma plan. If you don't have a plan - work with your pulmonologist or allergist to make one.

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
