Doctor's answer:
Hello! First of all, I wish your child a speedy recovery! Let me talk to you about the issue of "asthma." Asthma is caused by allergic reactions, leading to bronchial spasm, mucosal edema, and increased secretions. Clinically, it is characterized by paroxysmal dyspnea, cough, sputum production, and wheezing. The dietary therapy can enhance the constitution of patients with bronchial asthma and reduce or prevent the recurrence of asthma."Is any medicine without side effects," here are a few successful dietary remedies for curing "asthma" (children should use them with caution):
1) Take one black-bone chicken, kill and clean it, slice 150 grams of ginger, and add 10 grams of loofah fibers into the chicken's cavity. Tie it with a string, season with oil, salt, and other condiments, and stew the soup. Eat the chicken and soup over three days (children should eat it over five days). Light cases need one chicken, while severe cases need three. Avoid spicy food, leeks, and mutton.
2) Dry earthworms (250 grams), fry them yellow, and grind them into powder. Take 10 grams (about half a spoonful) with sugar water twice a day. It will be cured after taking it. Avoid spicy food.
3) Take 500 grams of purple-skinned garlic, peel and clean it, and add 200 grams of rock sugar to a clean, oil-free sand pot. Add water to slightly above the surface of the garlic. Boil the water and simmer it with low heat until it becomes porridge-like. After cooling, take one tablespoon in the morning and evening. Continue taking it until the illness is cured.
4) Take 500 grams of tofu, 60 grams of malt sugar, and one cup of fresh radish juice. Mix them and cook until boiling. Eat twice a day. This treats bronchial asthma.
5) Take 100 grams of fresh sheep bile and 250 grams of honey. Mix them and steam in a pot for two hours. Take one tablespoon in the morning and evening. Alternatively, dry the sheep bile, grind it into powder, and take 1 gram three times a day. This treats asthma.
6) Take 250 grams of pig lungs, 12 grams of sweet almonds, and 2 spoons of ginger juice. Clean the pig lungs, cut them into pieces, and clean the sweet almonds. Put the lungs and almonds in an aluminum pot with water and cook them together. When almost cooked, add ginger juice and a little salt. Eat the lungs and drink the soup. This warms the lungs, stops coughing, and reduces phlegm. It is suitable for elderly patients with chronic bronchitis, cold and deficiency asthma, white and sticky phlegm, and constipation.
