Re: Accidental asthma cure that worked for me.

hi Jowanna

I happened to google "Food gives me asthma" and came across your post, thanks so much for posting this to re-enforce my own great news.

I also suffered asthma and nasal polyps for approx 23 years, at age 25 or so asthma arrived to my body, now after 23 years of Steroid injections, 4 nasal polyp removal surgeries and puffers twice a day I can honestly say I am now totally medicine free and my nasal polyps have dried up and gone.

My first steps were to change location and move near the ocean, rid our house of pets, carpet and dust mites which helped.

However the biggest change came when I discovered I was alergic to Salicylates

I firstly cut out the main foods which were high on the list

which helped, but now after a year of 90% plus reduction of foods containing any salicylates I am totally off medication since July 2009 and do not get any wheezing even when exercising.

Sometimes by accident I am poisoned such as some breakfast foods have Paprika or Cumin in them and they are high on my list.

If you have Asthma I advise you discuss with your Doctor about the possibility of it being caused by diet.

It is so good to be drug free and being able to breathe and sleep through the night without drowning in mucus from my nose and restricted airways.

best of luck to anybody who looks for a way off medication.
