A lot of asthmatics use reverse breathing. Instead of pushing their diaphragm out when they breathe in, they push it in. As a result, they do not clean out the garbage in their bronchial tubes when they breathe out. At an Asthma center, one of the first things they work on is breaking asthmatics of their horrible habit of reverse breathing.

If asthmatics would learn Yoga style breathing, they could clean out far more garbage out of their lungs. That is done by pushing their diaphragm out the entire way when they breathe in and pushing their diaphragm up into their chests when they breathe out. They might cough up a lot of garbage when they do.

The muscles in the chest can learn to work with the diaphragm to open and close the lungs.

The muscles in the larynx also are important.

The tongue is one of the biggest problems many asthmatics have. When they swallow, they use tongue thrust. Instead of holding their tongue against the roof of their mouths like normal people, they stick it out their lips. This leaves food in their throats instead of forcing it into their stomachs. the next time they breathe, the food goes with the air into their lungs.

A number of Asthmatics have a constant low grade infection. Dr. Meyer Marks, the professor of Allergy and Asthma at the University of Miami, put all his patients on Sulfa prophylactically.
