    #190 What We Never Knew About Asthma #BreatheBetter

    We’re back for a very, very, VERY IMPORTANT PSA. If you didn’t already know it, both hosts, Mingyue and Minghan grew up with asthma - which is frankly why we said YES to understanding more about asthma management with Dr Helmy, a consultant lung specialist. According to Asthma Malaysia, approximately 2 million people in Malaysia suffer from asthma where 90% of them are uncontrolled cases. It doesn’t matter if you’re diagnosed with asthma or not, it’s more than important to be aware about the correct asthma management methods! If you suffer from asthma, try out the Reliever Reliance Test here: https://mysihatpal.com.my/breathe-better/
