<s>[INST]  I've read about some alternative treatments that say they help people with asthma. Do they actually help? [/INST] If you are thinking about trying an alternative treatment for your asthma, talk to your doctor about it first. Alternative treatments, like herbal teas or chiropractic care, should never be used in place of traditional, scientifically-proven medications, which have been scientifically studied and proven effective. There is currently no scientific evidence that alternative treatments are effective in the treatment of asthma. Source: AIM. Link: https://getasthmahelp.org/adult-faq.aspx. Field: Lung Disease.
