If the children have had prednisone or antibiotics this encourages the over-producgtion of candida, a yeast/fungal pathogen. This worsens asthma. High sugar and carbohydrate diets also worsen asthma. Candida is often neglected and doctors do not usually test for it.
Fortunately I was alert to the problem. My doctor tested me and it came back positive. Now it is being treated and my condition is improving.
how do you treat candida?
I have a nebulizer but gave up hope on using it. I'm not sure you can use it for kids?
Yes, children use nebulizers to treat asthma. You should speak to you doctor about this. As for candidiasis, I mentioned above what causes it, so those are things to avoid. Since the children are so young I would look to advice from their doctor as to specific treatment. Some of what I do may not be suitable for them..
What does candidiasis have to do with my post? I was asking how to deal with environmental asthma in infants.
