Asthma Inducer

 

Get To Know The Real Cause Of Asthma And How To Reduce The Risks

 

Asthma inducer, unlike asthma trigger, can cause an inflammation and also hyper-responsivity of the airways.

Many doctors think that asthma inducer is the real cause of asthma, which we often known as extrinsic asthma. That is why asthma inducer can cause chronic asthma symptoms which is more difficult to treat compared to asthma trigger.

Asthma inducer is usually caused by allergen, which comes in these types,

 

Food Allergy (Ingestant)

Allergen that comes into your body through foods and/or drinks that you ingest. The ingestant allergen will cause food allergy, that can induce asthma. Food allergy is mostly found in children as their digestion system tend to absorb protein particles that cause asthma in big amount. But food allergy usually disappear along with their growth. Only 1% of adults who really got food allergy.

 

Food Allergy vs Food Intolerance
 

Food allergy : the allergen in certain food that can trigger allergic reaction that involve human immune systems. When you are allergic to milk, you must avoid everything that contain milk protein, even just in one tiny-little bite of cake.

Food intolerance : Physical reaction against certain food that does not involve human immune system. When you are intolerant against lactose, you can still consume modified cheese or milk in small portion. In lactose tolerant case, it means that you are lack of lactose enzyme so that you can’t digest them well. Food intolerance can be reduced with probiotics.


Food allergy, as well as food intolerance are negative reactions to food. Learn more about this, and other conditions which affect your appetite to food.

Food Allergies And Food Intolerance - The Complete Guide To Their Identification and Treatment
By Jonathan Brostoff & Linda Gamlin

This book clarifies the difference between food allergy and food  intolerance. Drawing on recent research, the authors identify common allergens and common treatment options. They also present a very detailed elimination diet and reintroduction schedule, their recommended method of diagnosing food intolerances.



Airborne Allergy (Inhalant)
 

This is allergic that came from substances that you inhale through your nose or mouth. 75-80% of young asthma patient comes from this group. When you are exposed to inhalant allergen, your airways will become hyper-responsive, which will react by narrowing itself. You can solve the symptoms like cough and breath difficulties by bronchodilator, but 4-8 hours after that you will get another attack, which is the cause of inflammation that occur. This long hour makes it difficult for both patient and doctor to identify the real asthma inducer that has exposed you.

The inhalant allergen can come from :

Pet          Pollen          Dust Mites          Mold           Cockroach


 

Skin Allergy

Asthma inducer could come also from allergen that is having a contact with your skin,  which cause these allergies :

Allergic Contact Dermatitis           Eczema            Insect stings
