Patient's question:
The child had been having trouble breathing recently, and everyone was scared. They really didn't know what was wrong. It was better when they took him out, but not when they returned home. They went to the pediatric respiratory department at the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said it was bronchial asthma. Could the house have just been renovated, and the smell was causing it?Doctor's answer:
Hello, dietary taboos for bronchial asthma: Avoid seafood, greasy foods, and foods that easily produce gas. As the saying goes: "Fish causes fire, meat causes phlegm, while cabbage and tofu keep peace." This is not only a general dietary principle but also one that asthma patients should follow. Fish and shrimp, as well as fatty meats, can promote dampness and phlegm; gas-producing foods like leeks and sweet potatoes are not conducive to the proper regulation of lung qi, so they should be consumed in moderation or avoided altogether.
