Diet Therapy for Asthma
The patient should avoid common dietetic errors. Ideally, his
diet should contain a limited quantity of carbohydrates, fats,
and| proteins which are 'acid-forming' foods, and a liberal
quantity of alkali-forming foods consisting of fresh fruits,
green vegetables, sprouted seeds, and grains. The patient
should avoid foods which tend to produce phlegm, such as
rice, sugar, lentils, and curds. He should also avoid fried and
other difficult-to-digest foods, strong tea, coffee, alcoholic
beverages, condiments, pickles, sauces, and all refined and
processed foods
