First, according to the U.S. Surgeon General, American Lung Association and CDC, 12.5% of all children now suffer from asthma. There are about 20 million Americans who have one form of asthma or the other. If you think asthma isn’t serious, listen to this - asthma rates in little kids under the age of five have increased more than 160% from the year 1980 to the year 1994. Asthma has gradually and dangerously meandered its way with impunity to the top of the list of life threatening diseases in modern history; so a lot of care is needed to prevent and treat asthma. With the right regiment you can stay long and healthy and free from asthma attacks and still enjoy life to the fullest.
