Product Details

Despite its prevalence, all too little is known about it. What causes it? What can make it worse? What can you do to reduce - or even eliminate - attacks? What are the safest drugs to take? Does anything work in alternative medicine? Can diet play a part?

These are vital questions that demand answers. Sadly, there are very few resources available that can give you an unbiased verdict (most that we uncovered seem to be trying to sell a product or supplement). That's why the editors of the prestigious health journal What Doctors Don't Tell You decided to put together the definitive last word on the subject.

The Asthma Manual looks at every possible aspect of the condition, and gives its verdict, based on numerous scientific studies.
