Question

What home remedies are there for pediatric asthma?

Answer

Hello, dietary therapy is one option you can consider. Since certain foods can trigger or worsen asthma symptoms, for children with asthma, you should avoid overly salty, sweet, or spicy foods. Additionally, for children who are allergic to fish, shrimp, and other seafood, you should prevent them from eating these products when they have a cold to prevent the condition from worsening. One dietary therapy method is called “Fang Xiao Porridge”: 50 grams of soybeans, 10 grams of yuzhu, 15 grams of shanyao, 20 grams of huangqi, and 1 white pear. Boil the soybeans with water, retaining the remaining juice of 150 milliliters. Take 15 milliliters each time, three times a day. This is suitable for children with relatively weak lung and spleen functions.
