In his book The Bible Cure for Asthma (Siloam) Don Colbert, M.D., says that some food additives might trigger an asthma attack. Read labels carefully and avoid the following:
If you think food sensitivities may be worsening your asthmatic condition, Colbert recommends asking your doctor to perform a blood test called the ALCAT to determine your food sensitivities and allergies.
Colbert also says that many medications, even some asthma medications, may include sulfites. He recommends checking the label on your inhaler. If it contains sulfites, it may actually be making you worse instead of better. Talk to your doctor if you feel a change may be needed.
