Asthma and Nutrition Part V Case presentation: DM is a 12 yo caucasian male who presented to integrative pediatric clinic for the first time at age 8 years with the chief complaint of moderate persistent asthma and allergic rhinitis. His past medical history relates one to three severe asthmatic flairs per winter requiring steroids and overnight hospital stays over the past few years.

His mother brought him to our clinic for a different approach since they had failed to stop the flairs over the last 5 years.... and a blurb on choking prevention.   Enjoy, Dr. M
