For many, many years, there have been drug wars and alternative asthma treatments. Why is that so?

What did people do before the advent of global pharmaceutical companies?

It's amazing anyone survived at all. But survive they did. Now I'm not one who usually goes in for conspiracy theories, but I have to say there is something extremely fishy about the drug industry.

Are they really researching and developing new drugs for our benefit or theirs?

What place do governments have in the drug market? Pharmaceutical companies actively work on new drugs to relieve the symptoms of illness, but what are they doing to actually cure them?

There have been some speculation that they just want to keep us all ill, keep us all drugged up to the eyeballs and keep us all coming back to buy more so that their stock prices will continue to soar, thus giving shareholders' more value.

Would it be the billion dollar industry it is otherwise? If you have asthma, you buy the drugs and try not to add up how much it is costing you each and every month.

Sadly, there is no alternative. Or is there? Are there really alternative asthma treatment? Your doctor will obviously say no. But then again he's part of the pharmaceutical company drug chain.

In fact, alternative asthma treatment do exist. Almost every week new reports are being published from around the world saying, 'hey, wait a minute, we might have something here'. I have read many, many stories of people who found out that there can be another way to manage asthma and even make it disappear.

You don't need to be a genius or expert in the field either. With almost every home having an internet connection these days, you have all the information in the world at your fingertips.

As you are reading this page now, I assume you're looking for information. That's the best start you can get to break asthma-attack-drug-asthma-attack-asthma medicine chain.

Read up on subjects like Buteyko method, aromatherapy, mediation, hynopsis, acupuncture, chiropractic theory and homeopathy.

These and many other alternative therapies for asthma have been used for thousands of years, who are we to say that they no longer have any use in today's society?

Take a look around us, these alternative treatments are all around us.
