What if we could reduce asthma attacks, by addressing our gut health?
I know it seems far-fetched, but if your child has been struggling with colic, eczema, seasonal allergies, and now asthma – this is called an Allergic Triad.
And, functional medicine doctors are teaching us how this is all connected to our child’s gut health.
**Always use an inhaler as suggested by your doctor and see my precautions below as to when to call the doctor. Plus, you would never use these remedies with an acute asthma attack. *
So what can you do about asthma?
In this post, I’m going to share how we stopped all our medications for asthma-like breathing by addressing my child’s gut health.
Take the gut health questionnaire to see if your child is at risk.👇
First, What is Asthma?
Asthma usually occurs when a substance, that the body sees as a foreign invader creates an overreaction of the body’s own immune system.
During an asthma attack, spasms in the muscles surround the bronchi (small airways in the lungs) constrict and impede the outward passage of air.
Symptoms of Asthma:
coughing
wheezing
shortness of breathing and chest tightening
it can last for a few minutes or several hours
***always use the medicine suggested by your doctor for an asthma attack
70% of children with allergies also have asthma – Dr. Aviva Romm
Two types of Asthma
Types of asthma are allergic and non-allergic; although the two often occur together.
Common asthma provoking allergens include:
animal dander
cockroach droppings – children in city living have higher incidents of asthma
pollens
mold
pet dander
chemicals
drugs
dust mites
environmental pollutants – The Amish environment provides protection against asthma. ²
feathers
food additives
seafood
dairy products
nuts
yeast-based foods
fumes
mold
tobacco smoke/fireplace
Factors that trigger nonallergic asthma attacks include:
adrenal disorders
anxiety
temperature changes – cold weather
exercise
extreme dryness or humidity
fear
laughing
low blood sugar
stress
viral infection
gut health ¹
Gut Health & Asthma
We know children born via C-section have lower levels of healthy gut bacteria like Escherichia coli, Bifidobacterium, and Bacteroides ¹
Which can create what’s called gut dysbiosis; the bacteria in your child’s gut becomes unbalanced
And.. some moms cannot breastfeed for the suggested 6-9 months and begin adding alternative milk, that does not provide the necessary fatty acids that protect against allergies and asthma – This happened to us!
This imbalance continues into your child’s early life due to diet {or lack of probiotics} and increased antibiotic use.
This gut imbalance has also been connected to eczema²
Asthma development is also associated with respiratory tract infections when children are young
Natural Asthma Treatment
**Please keep in mind, you should continue to use all medications until you and your pediatrician decide it is safe to come off all medications.**
Here are the 6 steps we took to reduce “asthma-like” breathing.
Step #1 Remove all allergens
Has your child been tested for allergies? If so, have you removed all allergens big and small?
For example, my son has a small allergy to wheat, dairy, red dye, and cockroaches. The allergist suggested not to remove these foods, but when he eats them his immune system is lower and he gets sick more often.
PLUS, he had a nagging cough.
When he is mostly gluten and dairy-free, he doesn’t have a nagging cough and he thrives with health. So even if the food sensitivity is small, try removing this from your child’s diet.
Here are the common food sensitivities your child may have:
milk and dairy
eggs
chocolate
soy
nuts
wheat {gluten is linked to nagging cough, see source}
corn
Step #2 Reduce Toxins In Your Environment
Use a Hepa Air Purifier: A HEPA filter is a type of mechanical air filter; it works by forcing air through a fine mesh that traps harmful particles such as pollen, pet dander, dust mites, and tobacco smoke.
Use dust covers on pillows and bedding
Use natural cleaning products as much as you can
Remove foods from plastic as soon as you get them home
Have your child drink out of a stainless steel water cup and clean any straws often
Consider a water filter for your water system
Step #3 Reduce Stress
Encourage herbal teas of Chamomile, Lemon Balm, Stinging nettles, and Elderflower
Encourage activities like yoga- to reduce stress
My kids love this video!
Step #4 Improve Your Child’s Diet
Encourage a rainbow of foods or sneak them in with smoothies
To support detoxification look for foods with vitamins A, E, and C
Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that helps the heart, kidneys, and lungs work properly. Vitamin A can be found in:
cod liver oil {the #1 source}
eggs
orange and yellow vegetables
Vitamin E supports immune function and reduces inflammation
add foods with seeds like sunflower, almonds, peanuts, avocado, and spinach
Vitamin C reduces colds, flu, and asthma attacks. Vitamin C food sources include:
rose hips
broccoli, cauliflower, and green and red peppers
6 Supplements to reduce an Asthma Attack
B6 supplements
In one study, patients were given 50 mg of vitamin B6 twice daily and reported a dramatic decrease in the frequency and severity of asthma attacks.
Omega 3
an anti-inflammatory to reduce inflammation
Food Sources: salmon, sardines, and herring
Dosing
Age 2-12: 1/2-1 tsp. day
We like nordic naturals
Vitamin D
Proven to boost immunity and reduce the common cold & flu. Reducing the risk of secondary infections.
Dosing
Age under 7: 400-800 IU
Age 7+: 800-1,000 IU
Age 12+ 2,000 IU
Zinc
Dosing
Age under 1 year: 2-3 mg
Age 4-8: 5mg/day {check with multi-vitamin}
Age 9-13: 10 mg
Age 14-18: 10-15 mg
Zinc helps prevent Upper Respiratory infections
Vitamin C
Dosing
Age 2-5: 200 mg
Age 6-11 250-500mg
Age 12+ 500-1,000 mg
Buffered Vitamin C to reduce exercise-induced asthma daily – given with food.
Probiotics
Look for a probiotic with Lactobacillus alone or with Bifidobacterium to reduce asthma attacks. Take regularly if your child is taking medication or has taken a probiotic.
Step #5 Reduce Medications
Your child’s gut health is connected to their overall health. When your child takes antibiotics, Tylenol, or Ibuprofen it affects their gut bacteria. Below and in my course, Allergy-Free kids I explain how to heal your child’s gut with the 4R approach.
We also LOVE Little Davinci’s migrashield for migraines, allergies and to reduce asthma attacks. :
Little Davinci’s, which has Butterbur in it. When purchasing Butterbur look for PA free. Butterbur is known for reducing migraines and coughs.
Personalized tincture blend. I also created a custom tincture blend for my son, based on his inability to breathe in. The breathing in led me to add Ginseng to his tincture.
Personalized tincture blend included: Ginseng, Reishi, and Astragalus.
Book a health consultation to learn of your child’s unique needs for asthma.
Work on healing your child’s gut, removing triggers in the environment, and reduce medications can help reduce asthma symptoms for years to come.
When to call the doctor
Always air on the side of caution and trust your momma instincts when your child does not feel well
If something doesn’t feel right, go to the ER right away
Always use your child’s inhaler; as directed by your doctor
TRUE food allergies; need medical care ALWAYS
Warning signs for allergic reactions:
blue lips
difficulty breathing or speaking
change in voice
swelling of lips and tongue
exposure to true food allergy
fainting, weakness, severe abdominal pain
as well as.. high fevers and screaming sore throats {sign of Strep}
Conclusion
I believe your child can overcome Asthma by healing their gut health and adding in the appropriate botanicals for their unique symptoms.
Begin by addressing your child’s gut health and adding probiotics and additional supplements they may need. Next work on healing their gut with the 4R approach, last add in the appropriate herbal remedies for your child’s health depending on their age and symptoms.

I can relate. My son had colic, a milk allergy, and reflux and had to sleep inclined for months. It was exhausting. They actually have correlated PPD with colicky babies. ¹ This was true for us.
What if you could soothe your child so they would sleep more easily?
Imagine what it would be like to have a child who slept and was not in pain.
But don’t forget. Always check with your doctor before adding anything new to your child’s diet.
Want to get started? In this post, I’ll share how addressing your child’s gut health can reduce the pain from colic.
What is Colic in babies?
Colicky babies follow the rules of three.
They typically are 3 months old
Cry for 3 hours at a time
For at least 3 days a week!
You may notice your baby’s legs are drawn up and your baby seems like they are in pain. Colic is due to digestion and the pain may be due to excessive gas.
Other symptoms you may notice:
Your baby clenches their fists
They have a red, flushed face
They tighten their stomach muscles
They have a bloated tummy
What Causes Colic?
Here’s the thing. Colic is the start of what’s called an Atopic triad; Eczema, Seasonal Allergies, and Asthma symptoms typically follow children with colic.
Although not completely sure of the cause of Colic, these kids also have higher strains of gut bacteria called Clostridia, which cause gas, bloating and indigestion. ²
And, C-section babies have lower rates of Bifidobacterium-like bacteria and Lactobacillus-like bacteria, compared to vaginal births. ³ Which may affect their digestion.
Here are a series of steps you can try to soothe your colicky baby.
Colic affects up to 28% of infants¹
5 Colic Remedies For Breastfed Babies
#1 Address their gut health
If your child was born via C-section, was formula fed, or has had one round of antibiotics, their gut health may be compromised. Try an elimination diet for mom if breastfeeding or Hydrolyzed protein formula if your child is bottle-fed. You could also explore goats milk formula as well. Moms like Holle formula.
In one study, the infants who received 5 drops of L reuteri each morning 30 minutes before the morning feeding and moms removed dairy from their diet, had a 50% reduction in crying time; compared to the placebo group. ¹
#2 Consider an elimination diet for mom
If you are breastfeeding, mom may consider an elimination diet due to gut dysbiosis; which is the imbalance of the microbial in mom’s gut due to medications, stress, birth or yeast in the gut.
For mom: Removing the top allergens: Gluten, and dairy if breastfeeding and consider healing your gut with the 4R approach
If your baby is eating – remove gluten and dairy as well in the baby’s diet
#3 Add Lactobacillus to both of your diets
Lactobacillus can break down the sugar and hydrogen gas that is causing the cramping. I like Klair infant probiotic for baby and Klair Women’s for mom.
# 3 Drink Herbal Teas
Offer your child chamomile tea to aid with digestion or sip on this before breastfeeding to support elimination and gas.
Colic Tea for Babies
Combine equal parts of the following herbs. Then take 1 tbs. to 1 cup of boiling water. Cover and let steep for 10 minutes. Strain, then use a dropper to administer to children throughout the day to soothe gas and belly bloat.
A relaxing herbal bath can help relax baby and release gas.
Add just 1 drop of chamomile essential oil or lavender essential oil to 1/4 cup of milk and add to the tub for baby
Alternatively, you could make a strong cup of chamomile tea, cool it and it to the tub as well
Tummy massage
Make a calming massage oil by blending 1 drop of essential oil of chamomile or lavender in 1 tsp. of almond oil
Massage up the baby’s right side, across the middle and down the left to aid digestion
PLEASE USE JUST 1 DROP FOR INFANTS
#5 Consider the 4R approach to heal moms gut from dysbiosis
Homeopathic remedies for colic
I also LOVE using homeopathy with children. Here are some great remedies for colic.
Colocynthis–The child’s belly feels better from firm pressure. They are cranky and double up and scream with gas pains.
Magnesia phosphorica–The baby wants warmth and gentle pressure on the belly. The key sign in a warmed bottle over the belly feels better.
Bryonia- The baby does not want to be carried, asks for a drink and then doesn’t want it.Irritable and worse for moving, carrying or jarring. They can’t stand to be moved
Chamomilla –The child wants to be carried constantly but that doesn’t help. They cry for water and then don’t want it. They wine for toys and then throws it away. Often they have one red check and the other pale. You cannot please or soothe the child who needs chamomille. The key sign is they calm down more when carried and fuss when put down.
Conclusion
Colic in babies is a sign of too much gas in their belly, due to an imbalance of gut bacteria. Addressing mom’s and babies’ gut health can stop the pain and allow your baby to be soothed. Drinking herbal teas and integrating homeopathy can aid digestion for both mom and baby and reduce the excessive gas; causing the pain.
Did you know, eczema is linked to other respiratory illnesses like asthma later in life? Even when they outgrow the dry, itchy skin.
Just imagine.. soothing your child naturally and preventing a lifetime of health struggles with herbal remedies.
The interesting part?
These Atopic conditions; colic, seasonal allergies, asthma, and food sensitivities can change by addressing our children’s gut health.
Isn’t that amazing?
**But don’t forget. Read my precautions below for when to call the doctor and never stop any medical treatment without talking to your doctor first.
It all comes down to this.
We need to address our chid’s gut health to stop the Atopic triad: seasonal allergies, eczema, and asthma.
Are you ready?
Over 30 million Americans have eczema. ¹
Eczema: What causes it?
Children typically develop Eczema in their first year of life and it is triggered by top allergen foods like; milk, eggs, soy, and wheat.
In Chinese medicine, they suggest Eczema is due to the surface of toxic heat from the mother’s uterus.²
**When Eczema is triggered by consumption of peanuts, nuts, or shellfish this suggests a food allergy and you would want to get your child tested. You would NEVER reintroduce a true food allergy into your child’s diet.
There are two ways to address your child’s allergies:
#1 Have your child tested for allergies.
Even if it is a small food sensitivity, remove the food that is bothering your child. Typically, it would be gluten or dairy. If mom is breastfeeding, she can remove these foods from her diet as well.
#2 Try an elimination diet for 2-4 weeks.
Remove gluten and dairy and see if there is a change. {If there is no change, you’ll want to heal your child’s gut with the 4R approach} How do you heal your child’s gut? Read this.
Eczema Symptoms
Eczema is defined as dry or weeping skin; characterized by severe itchy and possibly burning, cracked, or red skin that can blister and ooze when scratched. Known as Atopic dermatitis, conventional medicine does not see a “cure” for this but, functional medicine doctors and alternative medicine practitioners and are teaching us otherwise.
Step #4 Reduce medications and integrate natural remedies
Step #5 Reduce toxins in your environment
When to call the doctor
Always air on the side of caution and trust your momma instincts when your child does not feel well
If something doesn’t feel right, go to the ER right away
Always use your child’s inhaler; as directed by your doctor
TRUE food allergies; need medical care ALWAYS
Warning signs for allergic reactions:
blue lips
difficulty breathing or speaking
change in voice
swelling of lips and tongue
exposure to true food allergy
fainting, weakness, severe abdominal pain
as well as.. high fevers and screaming sore throats {sign of Strep}
Conclusion
Eczema in children is a result of poor gut health caused during pregnancy {moms gut health}, by birth {higher in C-section babies} and if your child has had medications in the first few months of their lives. Addressing your child’s gut health will get to the root cause of itchy, dry skin.
*Please don’t use a bleach bath with children. Bleach can suppress their immune system, irritate breathing and affect their hormones – even in small amounts.

Did you know by the age of 19, your child may have had between 10-20 rounds of antibiotics?
Do you know what this is doing to your child’s gut health?
I know, I know, it’s frustrating when your little one gets sick. All you want is for them to feel better – fast.
And.. you’re a busy momma and don’t have time to research botanicals.
I get it.
But, now is the time to integrate botanicals.
Why?
Our children’s health is suffering.
Have you noticed how many kids are gluten and dairy-free? Yup. This is why.
Imagine knowing exactly what remedies to use when your kids get sick.
Imagine fewer medications.
Imagine your child knowing what remedies to use when they are sick.
So, what do I mean by natural remedies? I mean…
botanicals/herbs
homeopathy
food
and maybe some essential oils:)
The truth?
If we don’t learn how to use them now, I’ll children’s health will suffer for years to come. We are already seeing it happen.
In this post, I’m going to share the 5 reasons our children need to start using natural remedies.
1. Antibiotic Resistance
One of the biggest threats to our global health today is antibiotic resistance, the World Health Organization suggests.
“Bacteria, not humans or animals, become antibiotic-resistant. These bacteria may infect humans and animals, and the infections they cause are harder to treat than those caused by non-resistant bacteria.” ¹
Bacterial infections need antibiotics and if you overuse them, they may not work when you need them most. According to the CDC, “Each year in the U.S., at least 2 million people get an antibiotic-resistant infection, and at least 23,000 people die.” Source
We have to consider reducing antibiotics and integrating natural remedies.
2. Food Intolerances (gluten/dairy)
If you haven’t heard the word microbiome yet, get ready to learn more. These communities of gut flora run from our mouth to our anus and affect our weight, mood, mental health, and even our immunity. One of the ways we damage this flora is through yup, you guessed it, antibiotics.
And, children born via c-section are already compromised due to the one dose of antibiotics mom gets before surgery.
If you’re planning a C-section, consider Vaginal seeding to protect your child’s gut flora and take a probiotic in your third trimester.
When your child’s microbiome is affected, they may have difficulty digesting gluten and dairy – some of the top inflammatory foods we consume.
3. Leaky Gut Syndrome In Children
Leaky gut, also known as increased intestinal permeability, is a digestive condition in which bacteria and toxins are able to “leak” through the intestinal wall causing headaches, food intolerances, allergies and joint pain in our child’s health.
Medications that lead to Leaky Gut Syndrome In Kids:
Antibiotics
Steroids
NSAIDs
Acid reducing medication
If your child is taking these medications regularly, you may want to consider the 4R approach. Read more about Leaky Gut Syndrom in kids Here.
4. Clostridium Difficile In Children – C. diff
The leading cause of deaths in the hospital, Clostridium difficile or C. diff. is a bacterium that is normally present in the body in small numbers. When they are out of balance with the rest of your gut bacteria – due to antibiotic use or a compromised immune system, they may cause an infection and result in diarrhea.
This bacteria produces a toxin that causes inflammation of the colon and results in varying degrees of diarrhea, sometimes a bloody stool, and could potentially lead to death. Often, children with a compromised immune system have the greatest risk of getting C. Diff. If your child has bloody stool, please have it checked immediately for C. Diff.
C. diff can go hand in hand with Celiac disease and Inflammatory Bowel Disease; please have your child checked if you suspect they have C. Diff.
Depending on the severity of your symptoms, your doctor may suggest an antibiotic or to take the probiotic Saccharomyces Boulardi daily to replenish your gut flora. Read more here.
5. Eczema
An inflammatory skin condition, Eczema, affects 1 in 5 children and is increasing each year. Known as ‘the itch that rashes’ typically begins with the itch and ends with red, scaly skin. You may also have rough bumps, thick patches or bumps that leak fluid and crust over.
Those with Atopic dermatitis typically have a food allergy to wheat, dairy, peanuts or nuts. And, when they use antibiotics, this affects their gut health leading to allergies and “asthma-like” symptoms as they get older.
Why should our children use natural remedies?
They are generally safe and easy to use
We are teaching our children how to take care of themselves
Botanicals aid with digestion
They soothe the nervous system
They reduce antibiotic use
They are more affordable
Conclusion
Integrating botanicals into your child’s diet can reduce the number of medications they need for years to come. Saving you time in the doctor’s office and money on medications and ER visits.

Have you ever noticed the dark circles under their eyes?
Skin flare-ups?
Constipation or headaches?
It’s worrisome, I know.
Imagine if you could clear up these symptoms with diet and supplements. I know, I’m not a fan of supplements either, but the truth is our food is not what it use to be and you must admit – your child’s diet is not the best.
Here’s the thing. It all begins with their gut health. Hard to believe, right?
But don’t forget, we can reverse these symptoms and reduce further complications like occurrences of ear and sinus infections and even “asthma-life” symptoms – when we address their gut health. ¹
My son began his life with milk intolerance and as he grew, I noticed he had a gluten intolerance as well. When we addressed his gut health – his symptoms changed.
So what can you do about it? #1 Download the gut health questionnaire to see if your child is at risk.
Here’s my promise to you. By the end of this post, you’ll understand how to reduce your child’s allergic response – naturally.
But wait! Always check with your doctor before adding any supplements to your child’s diet.
What is an allergy anyway?
When your child’s immune system reacts to a foreign substance – like an insect bite, pets dander, or cockroaches, their immune system produces a substance called Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies. These antibodies travel to cells that release chemicals, causing an allergic reaction or inflammation.
This inflammation can be as little as red, rosy cheeks, or as severe as anaphylaxis – a potentially life-threatening emergency.
Why allergies are bad right now
*While most food allergies cannot be cured, you will see an enormous change in your child’s health and symptoms when you address these 7 things:
Your child’s gut health
Reducing inflammation naturally with herbs, diet & supplements
Boosting their immunity with supplements
Removing any food sensitivities to reduce inflammation*
Promoting healthy evacuation
Avoid medications and antibiotics – this affects their gut health
Reducing toxins in their environment and food
What are the 6 types of allergies?
Insect sting
Pet dander
Drug
Mold
Cockroach droppings- This is the #1 cause of breathing trouble with children in the city
Hay fever
What are the top food allergies in children?
A food allergy produces an increase in IgE and possible anaphylactic shock. **You would NEVER re-introduce these foods into your child’s diet if they have a true food allergy to them.
Food Sensitivity is when your child’s digestive system is triggered. An elimination diet is the gold standard way to discover which foods bother your child and may even be causing behavioral problems. But, it will not “fix” the symptoms.
By integrating the 4R approach to reduce inflammation, you may notice fewer allergic responses and asthma attacks. If your child has a food sensitivity (not a food allergy!), you could re-introduce the food into their diet again or may keep it out for good.
What are the top food allergens?
Wheat
Dairy
Eggs
Soy
Crustaceans
Fish
Tree Nuts
Peanuts
Food Allergy Symptoms
Tingling in the mouth
Swelling of the lips, tongue, face or throat
Hives
Anaphylaxis²
Food Sensitivity Symptoms
behavioral problems (dairy, wheat)
chronic belly aches, gas, bloating
dark circles under their eyes (dairy)
acne on the back of their arms (gluten)
bed-wetting
chronic sinus and ear infections (dairy)
hearing problems (occasionally accidentally diagnosed as ADHD)
headaches
sniffles
swollen lymph nodes & more
colic
chronic cough (gluten)
Take the gut health questionnaire below to see if your child is at risk.
Hay fever, also called allergic rhinitis, can cause:
Sneezing
Itching of the nose, eyes, or roof of the mouth
Runny, stuffy nose
Watery, red, or swollen eyes (conjunctivitis)
Remember food is always the best source of vitamins and minerals.
The top 9 foods to add to your child’s diet to reduce inflammation include:
green leafy vegetables
organic purple fruits
fiber
probiotics
Tumeric
B vitamins: eggs, poultry, and lentils
Chlorella: sea vegetables
Culinary herbs to support detox: garlic and onion
Quercetin: Cherries, strawberries, and broccoli
7 Supplements To Reduce The Allergic Response
#1 Freeze-Dried Stinging Nettles
You may know stinging nettles as those prickly greens that bite you in the springtime. Personally, I find the sting invigorating and as a sign of warm weather to come, but many hate the sting. The hairs – and the sting – on the nettles reduce when the greens are cooked.
“Mast cells are where histamine is formed, stored, and released. So by preventing their breakdown, they act as a natural antihistamine.”²
For children: you can break open one of the capsules and add it to a shake or drink. We like Planetary herbals: https://amzn.to/31T5xiF
#2 Quercetin
Quercetin is a plant pigment (flavonoid). It is found in many plants and foods, such as red wine, onions, green tea, apples, berries, Ginkgo biloba, St. John’s wort, American elder, and others.
Quercetin has been shown to reduce inflammation and inhibit histamine release; reducing allergic response. ³
Curcumin was reported to have an anti-allergic property with an inhibitory effect on histamine release from the mast cells. Naturally found in Turmeric, you can add this orange spice to your little one’s hot chocolate or orange juice.
In this post, they explain how digestive enzymes can help reduce the allergic response. The enzymes help break down protease, amylase, and lipase – aiding digestion and breaking down proteins, a common irritant. We love this product for my son.
Probiotics can help heal the gut, which can be the source of many inflammatory diseases – including allergies.
Look for ones with Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium species for healthy immunity. Download the gut health questionnaire to see if your child is experiencing the symptoms associated with Leaky Gut Syndrome.
My son was diagnosed with “asthma-like” symptoms and went home with over four prescription drugs. We love Little Davinci Migrashield. Please choose a supplement that is PA-free.
How did we clear up a nagging cough, allergies, and asthma?
Nasal rinses have been used for years to clean out the pollen in your nasal passages.
This blend uses grapefruit seed extract; which is known as a natural antibacterial to treat and prevent infections. This combined with the butterbur- has helped my son reduce his “asthma-like” nagging cough.
Conclusion:
When your child is struggling with a food sensitivity or allergy, you’ll want to address their gut health. By reducing inflammation and the inflammatory response, you can reduce the symptoms your child is experiencing and boost their health for years to come.
*Remember, you would never re-introduce a true food allergy to your child’s diet.
