Important tips about proper sleep and food for asthma patients

  • Asthma patients should observe some precautions so that their disease does not become severe. It is better for these people not to lie on their back and sleep with an open arch because their pain will increase and their disease will intensify.
  • Sleeping after a meal is very harmful for these patients because it disturbs the digestion of food and aggravates the disease of these people. Also, these patients should know that bathing too much is not good, especially if it is after a meal, which causes problems for these patients.

Important recommendations:

  • Eat before you get too tired or too hungry.
  • Drink enough water and fluids throughout the day.
  • Ice water is prohibited for asthma patients.
    Patients should avoid cold drinks and ice water. Also, they should avoid spicy foods, fried food, fresh fruits such as tangerines, oranges, watermelons and cucumbers, and fruits that are cold and wet in general.
  • Breathe when you chew and eat, if you need to take a breath, stop eating. And relax while eating.
  • One of the best natural ways to treat asthma is daily breathing exercises . Exercise increases the amount of carbon dioxide in the blood and as a result relaxes the soft muscles and respiratory tract. This causes the airway to widen.
  • If you have frequent asthma attacks, we recommend that you avoid using tobacco products. Because the smoke of these substances irritates the respiratory tract and increases the reaction of the body’s defense system.
  • To improve lung function, asthma sufferers should lose weight through exercise and a healthy diet . To prevent asthma attacks, always warm up your body with exercise. Note that excess weight affects all body systems, including the lungs.
