Completely agree with all. I installed "Halo" and it scrubs the air from bacteria, dander etc. I notice a big difference. But especially lifestyle factors - very critical. I found that once I lost weight (using the Mayo Clinic diet), exercised, got my BMI to a normal level, blood pressure etc. by eating whole grains, lot's of fruits and vegetables and lean sources of protein - it all helps tremendously to reduce inflammation.
@patiencespeir Welcome to Connect. You are so right about creating a safe home space reducing triggers.
I also stay inside during times where the outside air is unhealthy. There have been so many wildfires in the western US and Canada that have affected air quality over the entire US that changes with the wind patterns.
Does that situation make your asthma worse even with minimal exposure?
