You might want to Google Butyeko Breathing.  I have a friend who used this to 
cure herself of asthma and allergies and she was able to learn it on her own.  
It is my understanding that they believe asthma has to do with a gas imbalance 
in the body and the shallow breathing helps correct that.  My friend is also 
interested in meditation and told me when she started doing some of the deep 
breathing exercises the asthma returned.

  I read that "shallow breathing" is good for pulling you out of an asthma 
attack.....and have tried it....and it worked well for me. The natural response 
to an attack is to try and breathe deep....next time you get distressed.....not 
a full blown asthma attack.....but a little distressed.....try shallow quick 
breathing.....it has worked well for me. 
     Diet and exercise also work well for me. I don't eat processed, packaged 
foods.....and eat organic when ever possible. While under a doc's supervision I 
started an exercise program of mainly resistance training...but with little or 
no rest 'tween sets to push the cardio. I also started bike riding.....built up 
to two 60 mile rides per week. Those two things made a huge improvement in my 
asthma, as I have not been hospitalized since I began.....20 years ago.
     I have weaned myself off all my meds with the exception of 
Serrivent......which Glaxo Smith Kline just added a warning ...as it can cause 
an attack and death.......nice......a medicine for asthma that can trigger an 
attack and cause death. But they have enough money and pull that they are not 
having to do a recall. 
     Hence my questions about CS. I don't trust big pharma and am trying to 
free myself from them.
     Thank you all for the input

     I'm watching to see if there is anyone out there with a solution, I, too 
am searching around for solution for asthma, right now I am doing acupucture, 
I've only had a couple treatments so far.  Dr. Richard Becker has a health book 
and TV program, where he recommends vitamins for asthma (alot of B vitamins).  
I started this regiment2-3 years ago. Doug Kaughman has a 
    TV program and book, his theory is alot of asthma is fungus related, so 
diet is important.  I am on Avair and a rescue inhaler.  I am like you I would 
love to get off this medication.  Advair is almost $300.00 a month and the 
resuce inhaler is $230.00 a month.  I also have my nebulizer when necessary.  
Recently I started with Beta Glugan to see if that will help.  Someone on the 
list recommended 'Buteyko Breathing Exercises,  I am going to get the CD on 
that, but I'm leary of 'shalow breathing'.   I juice fresh juices and take a 
gob of vitamins daily and have for years.  I still fight the awful desease 
every winter, in the hospital, full of steroids, anti-botics till I can't think 
or function.  I am praying for you and all asthmatics, as I know what  you are 
going through.....Good luck and keep us posted as to the treatment you are 
doing, and if it is doing any good.........Thanks for listening...........Kathy

      CL?

      I'm with you on that -- same situation, same desire to get off big pharma.

      I've inhaled nebulized CS for some time, but have not noticed any 
improvement.

      I am a 60 yo male asthmatic who would like to wean himself off my asthma 
meds by substituting CL via a nebulizer.....I am in excellent health, but am 
getting tired of supporting big pharma....and being one of their guinea pigs. 
Has any one tried CL as a cure for asthma, how was it delivered, and what were 
the results? Were you able to remove yourself from your prescriptions? 
      Thanks
