Here are three ideas about asthma

1.  Asthma is allergy until proven otherwise.
2.  Allergy comes from airborne and food sources.
3.  Solve by improving air quality and diet revision.

  The three basic treatment  choices are:

1.  Remove the Cause of Asthma
2.  Treat the symptoms
3.  Alter the host to be more tolerant of the causes

Here is a simple problem-solving approach to asthma

1. Stop all smoking and association with smokers
2. Stop all use of volatile chemicals
3. Clean and ventilate indoor environments and reduce exposure to cats, dust, and mites
4. Leave work environments that involve dust or chemical exposure
5. If attacks of asthma are intermittent and related to airborne exposures then avoid the exposure or wear air-purifying filters when exposed and/or use preventive medications
6. If asthma attacks are seasonal and related to plant pollination cycles, then get allergy tests and consider using preventive medication. If pollen allergy is the main and only cause of asthma, see your allergist and consider immunotherapy (allergy shots).

The Alpha Nutrition Program 

Self -Help: The Alpha Nutrition Program is explained in enough detail in the Alpha Nutrition Manual  that an intelligent, well-motivated person can follow the steps outlined to manage their own disease and a parent can. modify the diet of his or her child to alleviate chronic asthma. Diet revision is an experiment, not a guaranteed cure. The hypothesis is that your "normal" diet is causing or contributing to your symptoms. The experiment is to retreat to a low allergy diet and/or take a food holiday diet to find out if you improve.

Alpha ENF  Often, full recovery involves a food holiday. Alpha ENF can be used as a completely absorbed, fully nourishing food-replacement. Alpha ENF can be used to supply nutrients that may be in short supply - such as amino acids, B vitamins, vitamins D and B₁₂ and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc. malabsorption, malnutrition and allergy to other foods may be hidden causes of slow recovery and prolonged disability. 

We think that  proteins in general are high-risk food components in chronic asthma and we are concerned about the adverse effects of hydrolyzed proteins. Gluten, the proteins in wheat, rye, barley and oats  are excluded and other  highest risk proteins  (albumin from eggs and milk, globulin and casein from milk, muscle proteins from meat,  sometimes Soya proteins) are suspect when you begin diet revision and their use is postponed until full recovery has been achieved.. 

Alpha ENF avoids all the protein problems by supplying the nutrient requirement with pure amino acids. The amino acid content of Alpha ENF will supplement or replace dietary protein. Alpha ENF can be added to fruit and vegetable juices to make complete meals of simple beverages and can be added to soups, or puddings after they have been cooked to increase their nutritive value. The most definitive rest and recovery technique is to take a food holiday.
