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.
Watch the video below.

Can we take a minute to talk about tribal sovereignty?
Sovereignty isn't just a concept – it's the foundation of Native nations' right to govern, protect our lands, and preserve our cultures. Every story we publish strengthens tribal sovereignty.
Unlike mainstream media, we center Indigenous voices and report directly from Native communities. When we cover land rights, water protection, or tribal governance, we're not just sharing news – we're documenting our living history and defending our future.
Our journalism is powered by readers, not shareholders. If you believe in the importance of Native-led media in protecting tribal sovereignty, consider supporting our work today.
Right now, your support goes twice as far. Thanks to a generous $35,000 matching fund, every dollar you give during December 2024 will be doubled to protect sovereignty and amplify Native voices.
No paywalls. No corporate owners. Just independent, Indigenous journalism.
