Exposure to dust, allergies, or pollution causes narrowing of the narrow tubes that carry oxygen to the lungs. Oxygen deficiency in the body begins due to the swelling of the airway muscles. People who are prone to this disease, in many cases, have to carry this problem for the rest of their lives. There is no quick fix or complete cure. But if you follow some rules and add some foods to your diet, you can get rid of this asthma problem. It's not just outdoor pollution that's toxic. Outdoor air pollution affects indoor air as well.
