Asthma is a long-term condition that can make it hard to breathe. Anyone can have asthma, but Native Americans are more likely to have it than white Americans. With the right steps, most people with asthma can lead a full and active life. This video from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute’s Learn More Breathe Better® health education program helps you know the symptoms and learn how to take action to keep asthma under control.

Native Perspective. Native Voices. Native News.
We launched Native News Online because the mainstream media often overlooks news that is important is Native people.

Any contribution of any amount — big or small — gives us a better, stronger future and allows us to remain a force for change.
