Drugs used for asthma are a short-term solution providing long-term side-effects. Doctors are regularly prescribing inhalers to those with marginal problems, thereby converting a transient wheeze into a chronic condition which only ever-increasing doses of drugs can keep under control. In this work, Dr Mansfield examines recent research and presents his findings, offering practical advice and a programme of things that can be done to tackle the cause of the illness. He states that food sensitivities and candida are related and that indoor pollutants (fumes from gas cookers, carpets, paints, mites and moulds), which are exacerbated by hermetically-sealed modern houses, are a major cause of asthma, with outdoor pollutants forming only 5% of the cause.

Asthma -- An Emerging Epidemic looks at the causes of the ongoing asthma-allergy epidemic including why clean environments of Western societies may be the culprit. After you read this book, you may want to let young children play in the garden, enroll in germ-laden day care centers and limit antibiotics to avoid developing asthma and other allergic diseases. The history of asthma is reviewed along with up-to-date treatment programs for children, adults, pregnant women and the elderly. Controversial issues discussed include alternative care, allergy injections, sports-induced asthma and causes of near-fatal and fatal asthma. Old and new asthma medications, including their side effects, are detailed. Nationally known asthma experts attest to why this book is a must-read for asthma sufferers, caretakers, health-care providers and asthma educators.

Analyzing asthma care in the twenty-first century Asthma is not a new problem, but today the disease is being reshaped by changing ecologies, healthcare systems, medical sciences, and built environments. A global epidemic, asthma (and our efforts to control it) demands an analysis attentive to its complexity, its contextual nature, and the care practices that emerge from both. At once clearly written and theoretically insightful, Breathtaking provides a sweeping ethnographic account of asthma’s many dimensions through the lived experiences of people who suffer from disordered breathing, as well as by considering their support networks, from secondary school teachers and coaches, to breathing educators and new smartphone applications designed for asthma control. Against the backdrop of unbreathable environments, Alison Kenner describes five modes of care that illustrate how asthma is addressed across different sociocultural scales. These modes of care often work in combination, building from or preceding one another. Tensions also exist between them, a point reflected by Kenner’s description of the structural conditions and material rhythms that shape everyday breathing, chronic disease, and our surrounding environments. She argues that new modes of distributed, collective care practices are needed to address asthma as a critical public health issue in the time of climate change.

Asthma is a disease which, beginning in the 1980s, increased in the United States and other countries in both its prevalence and mortality. According to reports by the Center for Disease Control, the number of people with asthma increased by 42% in the last decade, with children, ethnic minorities and the urban poor being most at risk. Timely research on the causes and mechanisms behind the dramatic increase of asthma in the United States and other nations-to epidemic proportions-is presented in this volume. Investigators heading up eight research groups in asthma and/or allergy present their most recent findings, funded by the Center for Indoor Air Research. In addition to the work underway and discussions/suggestions on present research problems, ASTHMA: Causes and Mechanisms of an Epidemic Inflammatory Disease provides a chapter on the causes of asthma-and the reasons for its recent spread, so hotly discussed in the current literature. Researchers in the fields of asthma and allergy, health care providers, and others who follow research in either of these two developing areas will benefit from this book. The book is written at the level of one investigator to another.

A comprehensive program that targets all four of the 4-A epidemics: autism, ADHD, asthma, and allergies “An easy-to-read commonsense guide to beneficial biomedical treatments.”—Temple Grandin Doctors have generally overlooked the connections among the 4-A disorders. For years the medical establishment has considered autism medically untreatable and utterly incurable, and has limited ADHD treatment mainly to symptom suppression. Dr. Kenneth Bock, a leading medical innovator, along with his colleagues, have discovered a solution that goes to the root of the problem. They have found that modern toxins, nutritional deficiencies, metabolic imbalances, genetic vulnerabilities, and assaults on the immune and gastrointestinal systems trigger most of the symptoms of the 4-A disorders, resulting in frequent misdiagnosis and untold mysteries. Dr. Bock’s remarkable Healing Program is an innovative biomedical approach that has changed the lives of more than a thousand children. Drawn from medical research and based on years of clinical success, this program offers a safe, sensible solution that is individualized to each child to help remedy the root causes. Dr. Bock also shares the dramatic true stories of parents and children that will inspire you to change the life of your own child. Hope is at last within reach.
