CrossFit Whittier | Asthma caused by poor diet

Asthma is a condition that involves the chronic swelling of the airways, which affects about 20 million Americans. A new study shows that diet may be a key culprit in asthma.?Researchers report in the journal?Chest?that adolescents are more likely to experience respiratory problems if their diets are deficient in certain nutrients.

?Teens with the lowest intake of fruit, vitamins C and E, and omega-3 fatty acids had lower lung function and higher reports of respiratory symptoms such as cough and wheeze,? says study author Jane Burns, an epidemiologist at Harvard School of Public Health in Boston.

Not only is the food we consume responsible for more than 80% of our overall health and fitness, it can be the cause (or cure) for many health issues. A recent study found that lowering sodium levels in the diet, supplementing with fish oil, and increasing Vitamin C intake reduces the symptoms of exercise-induced asthma. Researchers discovered taking 2,000 mg of Vitamin C prior to a workout resulted with 80% of those with exercise-induced asthma symptom free after a workout. If you or someone you know suffers from exercise-induced asthma, try taking 2,000 mg of Vitamin C about 15-20 minutes before a workout to relieve symptoms, and don?t forget to take your fish oil DAILY.
