No specific foods that can improve asthma yield. But better to find foods that trigger asthmatic events and avoid them and that can found out by trail and error and maintaining a food dairy and peak flow monitor dairy and recording daily.
Take high protein diet for good lung health and avoid fatty junk foods and cold drinks.
