before (Trop. and Geog. Med., Vol. 32, Mo. 2, 1980).

As for magnesium, it also works wonders! Dr. Zack H. Haddad

of the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Southern California

conducted a study on thirty children suffering from asthma associated

with allergies.

Twenty of them drank a daily amount of mineral water rich in

magnesium, while the others received no magnesium supplement.

After three months, the first group had a higher level of magnesium in

their blood, and they were able to breathe more easily.

So taking vitamin C and magnesium is an excellent way to

But what can you do to breathe more easily during an attack?

Simply drink 2 or 3 cups of strong coffee. By activating blood
