Pro. Referring to his research experience, Tomar said that by consuming small amounts of the foods that cause allergies, those allergens become tolerable to the body. According to this principle we can develop adaptability in the body. While sharing his medical experience on Respikalp and Aasthakalp, he described them as very beneficial in the treatment of asthma. Fast food also increases the risk of asthma attack.
Special guest Dr Shanti Chaudhary, Senior Researcher, Motilal Nehru Medical College said that the aim of such programs is to create awareness among the public about this disease. So that people can adopt preventive measures.

Pulmonologist Professor Tariq Mahmood of Motilal Nehru Medical College, Prayagraj said that asthma is a chronic disease and can be avoided. There are more than three crore patients worldwide. Factors like increasing population, industrialization, air pollution, family and genetic factors, unhealthy diet and smoking are increasing this disease. He said that there is a need to promote the Greek experience globally by doing large-scale research, so that people can benefit from it. For this, pharmaceutical companies and research units can work together.
