Aspirin-Induced-Asthma

This is a special category of intrinsic asthma induced by the ingestion of aspirin. It may occur as a triad of asthma, nasal polyps, and increased cosinophils, associated with severe potentially fatal reactions to aspirin. Aspirin intolerance can also be associated with chronic urticaria. The cause of aspirin-induced asthma may involve arachidonic acid, since aspirin may inhibit its cycloxygenase products (see Arachidonic Acid) and allow selective breaking down of arachidonic acid via the lipoxygenase pathway.

The Allergy and Asthma Cure: A Complete Eight-Step Nutritional Program

Editorial Review
"I have seen firsthand how The Allergy and Asthma Cure has changed people’s lives for the better. I have started using his treatment protocols for my own patients with a remarkable success rate, and best of all with no side effects. Many of my patients are getting off their allergy and asthma medications completely. I strongly recommend this book to anyone with allergies or asthma."

Reader's Review - It really works
I had been getting more and more allergic every year. Last year I developed asthma, and kept up with an intense schedule by using inhalers, a lot! Even though I gave up dairy and wheat, they continued to get worse, finally to the point where I had hives and welts from touching my books (a little microscopic mold, I suppose). That was the last straw and I bought this book and followed it for 3.5 months now. I went from using inhalers 3 times a day to 0. I can hug my cats again, where I would cough when they walked into the room with me before. I had some patches of eczema on the elbows that is gone, and I finally have some get up and go again.
