Am I Asthmatic?

At Eco Probiotic Systems, we want nothing more than for you to have a home that’s clean, healthy, and free of allergens. For those of you looking to greatly improve not only the air quality of your home and office, but the quality of your health overall, we are here to help you in your quest for improved respiratory health. While dealing with allergies is something that many of us struggle with on a regular basis, some of us may have a more specific condition like asthma. In fact, some of us may have asthma but may not be aware of it. In this blog, we will look at a few basic symptoms of asthma and how you can determine whether or not you may be an asthmatic. Our whole house air filtration systems will greatly improve the air quality of your home or office; contact us today to find out how.


While we will get into the common symptoms of asthma shortly, there are a few things to think about first. Are you a pet owner or are you exposed to pet hair on a regular or semi regular basis. Are you a cigarette smoker and/or exposed to secondhand smoke regularly? Think about your home, car and workplace: are these places kept clean or are they generally in a state of messiness with obvious dust, debris or mold? All of these things can trigger asthmatic symptoms, and regular exposure to dust, debris, mold and other allergens is harmful for asthmatics and non-asthmatics alike. Clean up your living space, working space, car, and see if you experience any relief.

General symptoms of asthma include shortness of breath, coughing, wheezing, and chest tightness, all of which can be triggered by any of the factors mentioned above. Things like running, climbing stairs, and rigorous athletic activity can all trigger asthma as well, though the list of triggers are not limited to just these. Other, less obvious, asthma triggers include exposure to cold air, stress, air fresheners and even alcohol. All of these can potentially trigger asthmatic symptoms or an asthma attack. If you are experiencing any sort of asthmatic symptoms on a regular basis, it’s important to see a doctor or allergist to determine whether or not you are an asthmatic.

Whether or not you’re an asthmatic, breathing clean air is incredibly beneficial to your overall health. Having a clean home is one step in the right direction, though not enough to fight the effects of airborne allergens and irritants.
