In this blog, we will discuss Dama Buti Churna: Herbs and Their Benefits in Asthma.
OVERVIEW:
Asthma is a chronic lung disease affecting people of all ages. It is caused by inflammation and muscle tightening around the airways, which makes it harder to breathe.
Asthma is a major noncommunicable disease (NCD), affecting both children and adults, and is the most common chronic disease among children.
Asthma affected an estimated 262 million people in 2019 (1) and caused 4,55,000 deaths.
Most asthma-related deaths occur in low- and lower-middle-income countries, where underdiagnosis and undertreatment are challenges.
WHO is committed to improving the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of asthma to reduce the global burden of NCDs and make progress towards universal health coverage.
SYMPTOMS:
Symptoms of asthma includes coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and chest tightness. These symptoms can be mild or severe and can come and go over time.
Symptoms of asthma can vary from person to person. Symptoms sometimes get significantly worse. This is known as an asthma attack. Symptoms are often worse at night or during exercise.
People with symptoms of asthma should speak to a health professional.
CAUSES:
Many factors increases the risk of developing asthma. It is often difficult to find a single, direct cause.
- Genetic: Asthma is more likely if other family members also have asthma – particularly a close relative, such as a parent or sibling.
- Allergies: Asthma is more likely in people who have other allergic conditions, such as eczema and rhinitis (hay fever).
- Events in early life affect the developing lungs and can increase the risk of asthma. These include low birth weight, prematurity, exposure to tobacco smoke and other sources of air pollution, as well as viral respiratory infections.
- Allergans: Exposure to a range of environmental allergens and irritants are also thought to increase the risk of asthma, including indoor and outdoor air pollution, house dust mites, moulds, and occupational exposure to chemicals, fumes or dust.
- Children and adults who are having higher weights or heavier person are at a greater risk of asthma.
Who can get asthma?
Anyone can develop asthma at any age. People with allergies or people exposed to tobacco smoke are more likely to develop asthma. This includes secondhand smoke (exposure to someone else who is smoking) and thirdhand smoke (exposure to clothing or surfaces in places where someone has smoked).
Statistics show that people assigned female at birth tend to have asthma more than people assigned male at birth. Asthma affects Black people more frequently than other races.
According to Ayurveda, the main doshas involved in asthma are Vata and Kapha. The vitiated ‘Vata’ combines with deranged ‘Kapha dosha’ in the lungs causing obstruction in the respiratory passage.
TREATMENT
Inhaled medication can control asthma symptoms and allow people with asthma to lead a normal, active life.
Avoiding asthma triggers can also help to reduce asthma symptoms.
Asthma cannot be cured but there are several treatments available. The most common treatment is to use an inhaler, which delivers medication directly to the lungs.
There are two main types of inhaler:
- Bronchodilators (such as salbutamol), that open the air passages and relieve symptoms; and
- Steroids (such as beclometasone) that reduce inflammation in the air passages, which improves asthma symptoms and reduces the risk of severe asthma attacks and death.
Also there are some Ayurvedic medicines which works best in the patients who are suffering from Asthma. Dama Buti Churna and Dama Buti Avaleh which is by Best Ayurveda Pharmaceutical Companies in India is best in patients with Asthma. Patients can get rid of inhalers with the regular use of Dama Buti Churna and Dama Buti Avaleh.
