Cause Update: Asthma

For Asthma, we have officially partnered with the American Lung Association to be the recipient of our donations. I want to personally thank Trish from ALA for taking the time to make this official and for putting in the effort to ensure the FiveHumans supporters always know where the donations from their purchases are going. We look forward to a long and effective relationship with ALA so we can have an impact on the many great programs they have for asthma sufferers.

In an effort to reach our goal of curing ignorance on the various causes we support by informing the uninformed and sparking conversation with our products and the knowledge we give, we have created an informational page for the asthma cause that gives more information on the cause itself and our donation partner, the American Lung Association. Take a look at the Asthme More Info page here: http://www.fivehumans.com/content/Asthma_Info.htm .

We will be creating these informational pages for all of our causes. Keep an eye out for our updated content with videos, stories and more about all of our causes.

Lastly, I just wanted to share this interesting story I found about asthma and some new drugs being developed that actually target the cause of asthma and not just the symptoms. For those of you who aren't aware, most of the medications today, pills and inhalers, target the symptoms which are the inflammation of the airways that make it hard to breathe and trigger an "asthma attack". These medications would target the actual allergic reaction that triggers the inflammation of the airways. Very interesting...
